actually, there`s a little way to wear a bit lighter

you must wear kave like you wear those clamp headphone, it means you can't you must choose a smaller size instead of big change to wear it tighter, so like that, weight will be distribute evenly.

for those that are using kave and having pain on top of their head, it's because you choose a big size and wear your kave loosely and the weight will be focus on top causing you some pain.

there's one thing as well, kave should be wear like.
1.the top where the cushion is should be in minor front a bit, this is also because you need to point the rear speaker to your rear.

2.don't wear loosely, or you will have suffer some pain on top of your head.

i thought if u tighten it'll be worse? that's why i loosen it afterward so that i let the earcup hold the headset in position and the top doesnt touch my head.

Nah, if you tighten, the weight will be more evenly distributed all over your head. Thus eliminating the pain on top of your head.

50/50/50/75 for me. Windows volume is 10~20. I use Media Player Classic, better playback and more tweaking options, better quality audio playback too, with its packed codecs: http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm

Do you have a soundcard or are you using Realtek audio codec?

Nah, the 64bit codec pack is still in development as Media Player Classic does not support 64bit processing yet. So this would do.

hmm.gif Maybe you can increase the subwoofer's volume or fidelity at your SRS Labs' control panel or something?

tune your equalizer, and set your BASS and Kave's Sub higher to have vibration. =D

thanks for the link. i already download and install it.

i tried to set like you shown (Media Player Classic > Option > Audio Switcher > Enable Custom Channel Mapping > 3) and play .mp3 @ 320 kbps + SRS Audio Sandbox ON + Desk EQ 100/100/100/100 Game Mode. yet, still no vibration at all.

is there any basic setting that needed to tweak which i might forgotten? hmm.gif
