I have some rewards points to burn but there's no obviously good options on Drop right now for headphones
Contenders
Ultrasone - maybe? I don't own any Ultrasones, so curious. Looks like garbage travel headphone which could be useful also.
Beyerdyanmic DT990 Pro. - Maybe? I have the DT 880 Good price point, really uncomfortable headphones but could be interesting to try the upgraded version.
E-MU - strong contender but $400 is a bad price point for what it is.
Which of the above would you choose and why?
Nothing else on Drop is relevant to my interests, because
Already own
6xx
820
800 s
Ether cx
Garbage / Consumer grade
Meze 99 - garbage bass canons, hard pass
No gaming headphones obviously
Sennheiser wireless - no to wireless/bluetooth
Hifiman - I have 2 of drop hifimans and they make really bad cheap shit on Drop, hard pass on HE-R7DX
Aeon - I own the closed, Drop refuses to address #padgate so no reason to buy open
Beyerdynamic 177x - wireless, nope
Too similar
8x / 560s...
IDOBAO ID80 CRYSTAL GASKET KEYBOARD - Space Bar Gets Stuck
Hello,
I'm relatively new to the community. I recently received this keyboard and noticed that when I press on the right side of the space bar, it gets stuck and I have to press the left side pretty hard to revert it back to normal. Now, I need to try to only press the space bar towards the middle or left side.
Is this normal or did I receive a faulty product? Is there a way to fix this?
Thank you!
Hi there,
I've been a member of the keyboard club for the past year, I'm afraid that in the next 24h the Keyboard Club will renew automatically.
I have checked on my profile but couldn't find anywhere a way to stop it.
Did i miss it ? Will it renew automatically ?
TIA

CTRL v2 leaks green light through bottom light strip when bottom light strip is turned off
Hi I recently purchased a DROP CTRL v2, and I want to turn off the light that encircles the bottom edge of the keyboard, when I turn this off there is still a green light on the left 2/3 of the keyboard that leaks through. I also have the DROP SHIFT v2 which doesn't have this problem.
Has anyone seem this? Possibly the LED shining though a green PCB internally or something?

I've seen this asked multiple times before but not in the last 12 months or so. Has anyone found replacement feet yet? Or maybe an STL to 3d print a set? One of mine cracked and it falls off the keyboard.
I want to order the Black Speech Lord of the rings keycaps for my Corsair keyboard. I was wondering if the lettering on each cap is transparent so my RGB lights would still shine through them when it is dark in my room.
What would be a good portable Dac/Amp to use with my HD6xx and Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone?
I am new to this hobby. I purchased a HD6XX and plan to use it with my Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone, that has a 3.5mm jack. I was wondering if I needed a portable dac/amp or just a portable amp and if so what would one recommend? Any assistance one could provide, would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Haz
Sorry if this is a repost of something already discussed... there's no real search function on the "community" section of this website.
I see listings for other PCBs available, but I am interested in getting a backup PCB for my Drop75. Is that possible?
I've been a longtime fan of Tron since my dad watched it with me back when I was little. I've only recently jumped eyes closed into the black hole of keycaps and artisan style individual keycaps. I have LOTRs keycaps, Drop artisan keycaps, Etsy LOTRs keycaps, as yeah i'm a fan. I can see it's like collected comics and vinyl, both of which i also do, although I'm finally selling off the comic collection because well, vinyl is expensive. Any ways, point is, when do you think Matt3o will design a Tron based keycap set that can fit a full size or TKL keyboard? I like the profile, I know SA is similar and only recently started really analyzing different styles. I'm not a huge fan of the Drop DSA style caps, too short, but i would buy those if they were in Tron as well.
Does Drop or anyone know if this might every happen? I get it's Disney and that might kill it but I know with a large community and the want behind that community, we might be able to finagle something, right...
Hello Drop people (sorry for the future ignorance)
i was wondering where to actually start building my own keyboard? i see all these cool keysets and frames, but i simply dont know what to buy, i find it a bit confusing.
lets say i wanna build my own keyboard.
where do i start? what do i put in the basket for it to become a complete keyboard in the end?
Hi, I just got a Drop SHIFT v2 and the quick reference card that came with it says that I should be able to toggle it between Mac and PC mode using FN+LCtrl+O but when I do that it does nothing.
I have tried other key combos and they DO work, for example FN+LCtrl+backslash does in fact toggle CAPSLOCK and CTRL, and FN+LCtrl+Backspace does reset the keyboard
Is this feature just not working?
I realize that I could potentially setup different Mac and PC layers in the configurator but I don't want to do that.
Thanks in Advance!
On my Drop CTRL v1, CTRL+Z never activates edge LEDs. Keys LEDs work okay.
I am using a stock firmware (updated today, issue present before and after).
CTRL+Z appears to have 4 "modes" but in all cases the edge LED do not light up. 2 modes are keys only, and 2 modes are all dark. I think this means the edge LEDs are dead and 2 of the modes should be toggling that.
Anyone dealt with this?
Hi... I'm a songwriter/producer. I have Drop Senn HD6xx HPs. I just bought a Topping L30 II SE HP amp to enhance my monitoring. It honestly sounds pretty good. The audio interface I'm using (an Audient iD22) has balanced outs. For those of you who've listened to the HD6xx using balanced amps and cables, do you think I should invest in that kind of setup to take advantage of the Senns potential?
Hello,
after long waiting i got this new pcb and went to configure it. So after doing so running mdloader it goes 60sec countdown and when i press FN+B just types .....bbbbb.bbb.b. etc. So it looks like on my pcb doesnt have the b button configured (becuase it types b instead dfu) to go to dfu mode hence i cant flash the pcb. Any other way to flash the board please? It should be on b by default as it seems...so i dont know what is the problem here.
thanks
I am having a problem with my PC38X with Xbox X. My first headset was and is the SteelSeries Arctis 7X+ and when playing online with others, they are able to hear me. When I switch over to the PC38X (plugged into the Xbox wireless controller), they are not able to hear me. I can switch back and forth between the two headsets, and they hear me immediately with the 7X+ and then can't hear me the second I switch over to the PC38X. The Xbox software shows in the controller settings that the headset mic is set to on, and I have mic monitoring turned all the way up and can hear myself talking into the mic. But even while hearing my mic'd voice say "Testing, can you hear me?" they tell me they can't. Is there anything I'm forgetting to set?
Just bought a CTRL model keyboard from Drop, it arrived today, I opened it and tried to use it and the FN key does absolutely nothing, am I missing something that I have to turn on? Or is my keyboard just shot? Please help
Anybody know how much we have to pay in Europe when buying stuff from Drop?
I'd like to buy the Sennheiser 6xx but I have no idea how much is going to be after adding delivery and custom fees. Does anyone know? I live in Spain.
I have a Drop CTRL keyboard (rather old now, I'd assume V1) and an LED on a single key just went out. Anyone know a model number for an LED I'd need so I can re-solder a new one on?
