I've used a lot of headphones, and I have to admit. My current pair is the most comfortable, and beautifully sounding I've ever had the pleasure to wear. Frequency response is superb and flat, and the bass is not overpowering.

Audio Technica ATH-AD700's.

I recommend everyone buys a pair of these. Only around 90$

Wow!

Almost got blown away by all you people that actually use head phones on a computer!! I have a pair around here some where, but don't think I've EVER used them. Don't even remember how I acquired them. Sure wouldn't have bought them. :whistle:

Bro, get yourself an Asus Xonar Essence STX sound card, and you'll start using them. Especially if you listen to music on your PC.

I freely admit that I have a problem... I just love listening to different headphones. Just in case someone happens to recognize all headphones, you have a serious problem too :)

Shure SRH840. I got them for quite a bit less than they usually cost, and they're the best headphones I've ever used so far. :) Much better than headphones that cost twice as much, but to be fair, the ones that costs twice as much are Monster Beats by Dr. Dre ones. :p

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
