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.

Will this sound better? Absolutely. Will anyone who isn't a critical listener/audiophile notice? Probably not.
The law of diminishing returns hits pretty hard in the audio world but for enthusiasts with the funds available its totally worth the investment (in listening pleasure, not monetary value)
I see the primary value of this drop as the music. 75 24/96 albums of great jazz is worth between $15 and $20 per album, that's up to $1500 value right there. The AK240 is definitely worth the additional $199.
Like you said, @micahjrose , the real value in this drop is in the music.
Plus, 4 years later, my original ak120 is still cranking, and the schiit stack has broken twice.
