    New Headphone Settings Help!

    HOLY CRAP!  biggbenn74 just saved me hours more of trying to find the right sound for my Q701's.  I have been looking for these phones to reproduce the same sound my home theater speakers do when listening to music and I finally have the kick and clarity and don't feel like they are as...

    Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)

    Having been away from the forums for awhile I have to return after many months of gaming on consoles and PC with my Q701's hooked up to my Harman Kardon receiver.  For consoles I get automatic Dolby Digital Live converted into Dolby Headphone and it's not bad at all.  The receiver allows me to...

    "This sucks, but it may also be a blessing. We may finally get these companies to make devices like the Mixamp to accept HDMI and convert all forms of multi channel sources to virtual surround, and not just Dolby Digital."   This would be awesome!!!!

    Call of Duty: Black Ops II

    Anyone that was having issues with this game like lag, bullet lag, glitches, etc...I advise you download the latest patch Treyarch put out this past Saturday and revisit the game.  I'm getting consistently 15+ kills over deaths each game now.  It's running SUPER solid and I'm happy with the game...

    Quote:   I thought I was going to have the same issue.  Then today when I played I was finding myself head faking and killing enemies with no issue and the map designs made tons more sense.  There are a couple that are designed for chaotic action, but I can tolerate those.  I'll just have...

    For anyone that doesn't plan on doing a lot of mobile gaming and has the space, I highly recommend a receiver.  I bought an HK335 for a sweet price and have never looked back.  The endless tweaks that can be done and end of tons of optical switchers and cords all over the place.  It's freakin...

    Just wanted to thank a few members here for helping me make "smart" purchases and aiding to my satisfaction with my current gear.  Mad Lust Envy, Chicolom, PurpelAngel, and Evshrug...with your input and responses, I have a setup I am completely satisfied with and am now gaming with a huge...

    So I bought the Harman Kardon AVR 335 receiver for $175 and I'm one happy son of a b!tch!  I no longer feel the Q701's have the little bit of lacking strength when I was using them with the AX720.  Really glad I invested in this receiver versus getting the Astro Mixamp and then turning around...

    Quote:   Your response is really good.  Thankfully, this unit won't be for my main home theater.  I  have one in my living room already that's majorly geared out.  This will be for my office using smaller speakers and basically only used for music and gaming.  With that said, I will be...

    OK GUYS...convince me to do it.  Would you?  I found someone local selling a Harman Kardon AVR 335 in LIKE NEW condition for $200.  I'm seriously considering buying this unit.  It has Dolby Headphone AND I can hookup speakers to it and get some use out of it without being limited to headphones...

    Just bought a SNES

    Very awesome!  Makes me really wish I would've held onto every system I've purchased so I could have a setup like this.  I have emulators on the PC, but obviously...it's nowhere near the same.

    Guild Wars 2 Music and BETA

    I remember listening to the soundtrack to the first one over and over.  I can't wait for the 4 disc soundtrack they have in store for this one.

    The Official Horror game Thread!! Lets put those headphones to good use!

    Dude exactly!  I just had my wife sit in front of the monitor while I played and she had the headphones on and watching.  Her comments were as follows:   "Ok this is making my stomach hurt I'm so anxious cause I know it's obviously going to scare me."   "Can your flashlight ever go out?"...

    I remember reading somewhere in this thread that someone tried out the new Tritton AX720 7.1 decoder box and said they were disappointed.  I forget why though.  I've been very happy with my Tritton AX720 (5.1) but would like to go 7.1 if possible and it makes a big difference with directional sounds
