    AKG K361/K371

    Yes, position of the earcups make a rather big difference with this headphone. Positioning it forwards or backwards on the head changes the sound slightly, but biggest change comes when I press the earcups in, it brings out some of those small details which are otherwise missed. The cushions are...

    AKG K361/K371

    Thanks. I turned off the Realtek surround feature and in game the difference is night and day. That rumbling is gone, with its bloody extensions. But I still don't find the positioning of sounds to be accurate or detailed, they are not presented to my ears, I have to listen for them. I guess...

    AKG K361/K371

    Nah nothing was changed in regard to windows or any other settings. I never turned on any windows audio features, I simply use Realtek audio manager and enable 7.1 surround sound option while gaming as it gives that immersive sound. This headphone is simply too 2D sounding and lacking those...

    AKG K361/K371

    I have been using a K361 for past few days and I wonder what's going on with my unit. I mean the headphones sounds totally fine while listening to music, or watching movies, or youtube, the bass is really good, not overpowering, the way I would prefer it, but then I enter CS Go. Everything just...

    Beyerdynamic DT 150: Bloody Brilliant!

    Thanks. I don't think I would be able to do that headphone-out to analog-in thing. There are no amps out there with its own 7.1 simulated audio? I am aware that headphones are only two channels, Lol. But for movies that 7.1 simulation is night and day difference compared to standard stereo. I...

    Beyerdynamic DT 150: Bloody Brilliant!

    @vmiguel I mean I connect my headphone via the front audio panel of my cabinet (corsair 500r) to have that 7.1 thingy. It's a 3.5 mm connector obviously. If I plug in my headphones through the rear sided audio panel that 7.1 option doesn't appear. I wonder whether I should consider the DT 250s...

    Beyerdynamic DT 150: Bloody Brilliant!

    Thank you all. Then I am finalising my purchase decision and getting the DT 150. However, it's 250 ohms for crying out loud. So I definitely need an amp right? I have never used an AMP with my desktop, as it kills the simulated 7.1 surround sound provided by Realtek HD audio manager, which I...

    Beyerdynamic DT 150: Bloody Brilliant!

    So, if anyone is looking for a headphone which is a neutral/flat variant of a DT 770, retaining all the good things of the 770, like soundstage and details and so on, but cutting back on the booming bass and ear piercing treble/highs, could this work, the DT 150? I have spent countless hours...

    Thanks. Some said that the 700 has narrower stage the 770. Jeez!

    Yamaha HPH-MT8 studio monitor headphones

    Thanks for letting me know the reason behind the buzzing noise. I could have made that A990Z headband work for me especially because I cannot imagine any headphone being worse in regard to comfort compared to the 770s. Okay, ruling out the MT8s. I don't need a sidegrade, I need a proper...

    Yamaha HPH-MT8 studio monitor headphones

    Thanks for the detailed response. Are you Julian Simmons on YouTube? Because the opinions of yours and his seem to be identical, someone who praised the MT5 over MT8 and even went as far as to call them worth 700 while later being only 400-ish or so, but of late suddenly changed opinion...

    Yamaha HPH-MT8 studio monitor headphones

    I was considering the MT8s as an upgrade to my DT770s which broke down recently, (no, repairing it is not an option in case someone intends that suggestion) but the reports are very conflicting. Please, do not try the sales pitch on the MT5s, it's disgusting. Anyone who has the DT770 and the...

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80-Ohm Thread

    Hmm so that means the sound leakage will be higher also, really won't like that at all especially when winter is around. Okay thanks for your help anyway. Lemme think a bit. If there's other companies making pleather pads for this headphone which are actually of good quality and won't affect...

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80-Ohm Thread

    Thanks for your reply. I've considered to purchase the velour pads directly from Beyer. I'll email them asking for the price shortly. I suppose that's more of an economical solution rather than consider purchasing a new can altogether. One question though, so the velour pads isolate less...

    Closed back within 150-200

    Problem might be with servicing for where I live, in case the situation arrives. When you don't live in the western world, for after sales service's sake you have to stick with the so called mainline brands, like AT, Senn, Beyer, Shure etc. But thanks for your suggestion, appreciate it. I can...
