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.

Because there are peaks and valleys so it accentuate the pronounced frequencies, what I mean is that if you're eating icecream, then drink coke after then the coke doesn't seem so sweet anymore, but if you're drinking water then drink coke then coke feels very sweet. Teak has bass and treble (vocal is a bit recessed), but because all the other frequencies are also up there so it doesn't feel as "punchy" or "impactful" for lack of better word. TH-X00 is very punchy and fun but at the same time balanced (in the sense that there is bass, there is vocal, there is treble, just a little bit of less anywhere inbetween).
That being said I only have the TH-X00 Mahogany version, I'd probably recommend the TH-X00 Ebony version because it's smoother sounding and has more sub bass. I kind of wish I got that in the first place but it's too much money at this point (also since I already have Mahogany and Teak). So maybeeeeeeee one day (huge maybe).

I think in a perfect situation I wish Fostex would just sell their cup separately. :(
