Lol. You got in car audio? I got HD800 B**ch!! Looooool  laugh.gif

Yeah massive thing, but surprisingly very light and comfy. One if my highest rated in terms of comfort.

Yep..for the size and weight I hardly feel it and after some time you forget it's there..a bit weird to find a huge headphone more comfortable than my Vsonic GR07 sweat.gif

That's the reason I choose this headphone for my gaming actually..comfort for those long sessions and the soundstage for soundwhoring tongue.gif

First shipment escape. Second shipment over RM300+ total. This last two shipments also forgot I paid how much already. RM100++. Sigh.

Enjoy your ZXR man. Me jelly.

Anyways here is Sneak previews.

Woah that's some nice stuff there...
I just hooked up my Omni to my DAC but no PC to test games with yet haha...
Is it my imagination or does Scout mode bring out more details in songs..turned it on and all the fine details at lower frequencies sort of became easier to hear blink.gif

Waaaaaaaaaah yum cha. I'll take a ribs and beer thank you very much. Haha.

But yeah better pray. Judging by your items you'll easily kena Rm350+ if they slap their classic 20+10% tax.  sweat.gif

Thinking about ribs so early in the morning..now feel so hungry haha...
Anyway yea I decided to turn it off too...prefer the music as it's meant to be hear..I don't mind EQing with my GR07 but...just not with the HD800..feels wrong man..
I borrow Nvidia's slogan..the way it's meant to be heard tongue.gif
Don't shoot me though, me new rig AMD all the way..after years of Green Team.

Nvidia turning into Apple with their anti competition practices.. shakehead.gif

You kidding brah? I've been at AMD's camp since 2003. Ahhaha. Welcome abroad matey!

Yeah, had epic ribs yesterday at Friday's. It's Ben's treat for both of us. Hehe.

Yeah HD800 if you skewer with effects and frequencies it's gonna make it sound out of whack. HD800 prefers clean neutral sources.

Nope. This is my GPU History: Voodo 2, Geforce 1, Geforce 2, Geforce 7900 GTX, GTX 260, GTX570..GTX660m (my dark age lol). and now quad R9 290s thumbup.gif

Btw, how do I set up the Omni for gaming surround through SPDIF?
When I tick the Dolby Digital Live box garbles of static keeps coming through the headphone constantly.. sweat.gif
Anyone with experience in SBX Pro Studio?

You don't tick the DDL unless you're sending the signal to Dolby Headphone device (like the Astro Mixamp or TurtleBeach DSS for example). Remember, your DAC cannot decode a DDL/DTS signal because it lacks the DSP to do so. You have to mix the signal into stereo first.

So basically you set Windows to 5.1, enable SBX Surround and adjust the amount you like (73% is the sweet spot for me, but your mileage may vary) and send a stereo mix signal through optical.

If you have issues about SBX not working out of optical (which I didn't), you may want to stick a 3.5mm adapter into the headphone port on the Omni. Doesn't have to be connected.
I don't know how but this person on Head-fi has issues with SBX Surround not working out of his Omni's optical port - http://www.head-fi.org/t/623079/creative-s...0#post_10505429

Thanks bro got it working now. But you were right BF4 is a terrible game to test actual surround..it just sounds good..in terms of positioning accuracy it's not that good.

Did a quick test with the Q701, matches okay. Not thrilled to be honest, again there's a lack of speed and attack. The bass is slow. Wish it's more tight and kicks faster.

Just setting up a quick and dirty custom EQ for now until I find some different op-amps.

Do share wat opamps you thinking of getting biggrin.gif

Anyone tried the razer surround software? I've tried using it just now but I am worried that it could damage headphones? I'm a newbie so I don't know what I'm doing.

Can equalizer software damage headphones and can any of the settings in general damage them?

I did try it out and they seemed ok. but haven't tried the surround software long enough to judge it properly.
*
I really doubt a software can damage headphones..unless you are feeding them too much power and volume too loud..
Anyway I wonder if this can be a good case to carry headphones..
Might be good for LAN parties maybe?

Btw, my wife has been hinting for a bluetooth speaker. Can you guys recommend something with good quality as I might just hijack them to use for music or playing games when she's not around tongue.gif
Personally, I have a bias against anything bluetooth.. sweat.gif
Budget within 1k...
Or maybe bro Sentinel can recommend his speakers brows.gif

you can buy that box from Midvalley, but the foam inside are custom made.

Where got such thing one. Hahaha. You either get standalone speakers which is usually a single unit with bluetooth/Wifi capabilities, or you get a full blown CD/AMP/DAC/Speaker set. Hahaha. And the latter is definitely not within budget.

Get a full set from me lah. I got NAD Players and amps going for 40% off man.

When I'm richer with a bigger house and have my own man-cave I plan to get one full surround hehe...for now I have to 'settle' for my headphone for gaming..

Clem, when you do these reviews you should invite some of us to test also to get opinons  brows.gif  brows.gif  *trying to get in to listen more audio gear*  whistling.gif  whistling.gif  whistling.gif

EDIT: Saw the review of the Roccat Syva --really disappointed with the lack of case and surprisingly lacking audio quality, I had high expectations for that one.

As a previous owner of Roccat Kave I gotta say their gear looks nice but can't match true audio companies. The Kave for example had this really annoying rattling whenever I heard explosions..and I had it since Day 1. Couldn't be bothered to RMA it lol..I got it as a wedding gift anyways. tongue.gif
