I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

I have heard these first hand in Fujiy Avic earlier this year, and think they are fantastic. Better than HD800 in head to head, I think. Will be buying when I can afford to.
I think this is one of those items where it need to come on this site once every 4-6 months.
However; there were so many HD600 and HD650 drops and now zero since Christmas. Again not MD fault but those headphones are legit.
Every headphone I have heard has fairly objectively measurable flaws. Even at prices higher than this. to be honest with you, I have never heard a perfect set of audio equipment, even when the price tag is 20-50 times higher than this. I have listened to K812 for around 2 hours using various music types, and the "peaky treble" referred to in the review was not a problem for me.
