I bought a Razer Carcharias headset yesterday and I find it amazing, but why do they seem to be so darn quiet? For example: I can hear my keyboard/mouse clicking, while wearing the headphones and maxed the volume. Is it supposed to be like that or is something wrong with the product?  | ||

Burson 160Ds is always an option I guess.. main headphones would be the HD 800's. Look into something like maybe a Woo Audio tube amp, I've only heard great things about them coupled with the HD800. HD800 is like 300 Ohm right? I'd go with a tube amp for them, definitely. As for a DAC, to stay within your budget I would recommend something like a Schiit Bifrost, when you order it you can add USB input too (Asynchronous iirc). | ||

Hopefully it's a good buy. I can't stand all the noise my computer produces so I've been using my phone (which is sadly better) as a source when it comes to music. | ||

So true Especially with the headphone socket on the front of mine the sound quality is really bad, pretty sure it runs past every source of interference it could. | ||

Burson 160Ds is always an option I guess.. main headphones would be the HD 800's. What other headphones? If you want to drive HD 800 accurately, that shouldn't be too hard. Despite the price and whatever expectation bias people have cooked up for them and other audiophile pseudoscience, they shouldn't be a challenging load for most reasonable amplifiers, very similar to HD 650 in terms of amp requirements and matching. Pick your favorite amp that can do about 3V into 300+ ohms. | ||

I had steelseries 4h and absolutely loved them, but after 2 years my left year stopped working. So I am looking at either the steelseries 5hv2 or 7h (I am open to other suggestions). I usually only wear headphones when I am playing games so music quality isn't a big concern to me, however I want them to be comfortable to wear for several hours in a row. Anyone have suggestions/opinions about either of these headphones? I'd still suggest the AD700's. They're light as a feather and they'll only have a loose fit if you're a pinhead | ||

I bought the AKG-K77 earlier this year and it was really confortable and I was thinking about stick with AKG because of their product design. Would your headphone be a good upgraded choice? | ||

You gave me so much all these years, never letting me down a single time. But I knew that this day would come eventually I had these headphones for more that a third of my life O.O and they were amazing. Now I just bought the Sennheiser HD518. After what I read here and in HeadRoom I think I did a good buy. Afterall my main usage is for listing and writting music. I'll tell you afterwards about it. | ||

the wide soundstage is good, but a couple of times ive noticed it being a bit too big; once i asked myself... why is that violin played from over there? i can't really be bothered posting all the positives as most people know them already | ||
