Great For The Price
I bought these at $350, as writing the review, they are back up to $450. These headphones are still worth it at $450. The build quality is unmatched. The metal finish on the ear cups and the metal supports will last for years. There is also no creaking from cheap plastic. I use the leather pads, as they were much more comfortable in my opinion. Imaging is great, as these are based off a studio headphone. Soundstage is sub-par, but pretty good for a closed back. If you want soundstage, go for the DT 1990 PRO. The sound quality is great. There is not too much bass or mids. The highs are much less pronounced than the DT 1770 PROs. These will not give you a headache. I suspect the extra padding has to do with this. This is definitely a much-needed refinement for the 1770s. The sound overall is flat, with bass being a bit pronounced and not too noticeable and the highs dipping towards the upper range. These are also only 32 ohms, so a phone could drive them if any phone now still has a headphone jack (please bring it back). Definitely good sound for the price. One thing that stands out is where these are made. These are not made in China with poor quality control, they are made in Germany. I try to avoid products made in China because of the terrible working conditions and poor QC. These headphones are also user-repairable. They will not break like bluetooth headphones or become e-waste like AirPods. These will last a long time if taken good care of. Finally, the only complaint I have is the cable. A 4-pin mini-XLR cable is a great idea because of balance setups, but the cable is near impossible to find. Hart Audio Cables makes great cables for this, and I would recommend them. Overall, an excellent value for the money. I would recommend this to anyone looking for headphones in this price range.

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?
I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup
Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

$10 Drop Coupon Email not sent?
Trying to buy some gear off Drop for the first time. I was told I would receive an email with a welcome to drop $10 off promo. I never received that email. Drop was able to send me emails for my login token and email for Password update. But for some reason the $10 off coupon was never sent to me.

New here
Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.
