PC players seem to be way better at pinpointing exactly in which duct you are holding your key for later.

At which point does it become an addiction

I mean there's an obvious difference if you're testing stuff for funsies or you're looking for what sound suits you the best...from my experience, finding a stable pick has an end, if we're talking about that. When you really discover what sound you like, you kinda stop there, it seems like it's an

Are wireless headphones suitable for playing Overwatch?

Maybe not really the most helpful recommendation but the sennheiser hd-560s is a very well-loved headset across the board for fps games. Great soundscape to hear footsteps with clear direction, light, comfortable. No mic included. They are wired, though. I have only used this headset for years now a

From Hifiman I have Edition XS, 400SE , I have also Audeze Maxwell 1, Sennheiser HD560S, Turtle Beach Stealth Pro, Astro A50. For gaming , the last three (Sennheiser, TB and Astro) are better especially in sound positioning in FPS. Unfortunately, from them 560S is a little too tight for my head for

HD 505 Copper – The Analytical One (Review and HD 550 / 560S Comparison)

Excellent review. How would you say the soundstage and imaging of the 505/550 compare to the 560S and HD 650? I’ve always found the 560S to have a very wide stage - perhaps second only to the 800 series, but falls short in imaging, as instruments not separated by channels tend to blend together. The

Audio Reviewer Tierlist

Nope. Moondrop Old Fashioned is 4 month old video, but okay I guess you could say it's an older one. I'm subscribed to his channel and watch his vids all the time, because he's very entertaining and cool, but his reviews are C tier sadly. Very biased, specific and sometimes straight up doesn't elabo
