How good/bad are these for fps type games and trying to hear directional footsteps? Better or worse than something like a HyperX cloud headset?

my setup is:
- hd580 precision (original from nineties)
-hd58x jubilee (0001x1 number)
and if i change 2 cables vs 2 phones i have 4 diverse sounds.
what is better from your point of view!?
(my amp is now "only" mayflower electronics o2 headphone amplifier)

I'd say it's worth it. Different sound signature. 58X feels 'clearer' and brighter than the HD6XX.

will These works with a Astro a40 dac? I’m looking to still have the 7.1 surround sound. Also I’m new to this and it would be my first high end set of headphones. I don’t want the px38 cuz I don’t need the mic and hate the color of it. Thanks for your help.

i've been using these headphones daily since 2018 - the foam in between the earpads and everything else is starting to break down, how do i replace it and what do i replace it with? the earpads Drop sell don't seem to come with any replacement for the foam. i tried looking online but all i could find were people talking about the earpads, and not the actual foam in between those.
thanks.

There are different providers to chose from and your conclusion is subjective.

not really, I've tried different pads from high end to Aliexpress, none of them even come close to original ones in terms of audio quality. If you genuinely can't tell the difference then you probably have a problem with your ears.

yeah, how well? With the high impedance port that they have now? Could be a portable solution?

I use the Fiio BTR5 and they sound amazing! Also helps that it makes them Bluetooth too.

The Fiio BTR5 is excellent, but buy the 2020-21 updated version. It can also be used in wired mode with a driver download. I also recommend the Helm Audio Bolt Dac/Amp dongle and the Monoprice Monolith USB Dac. The Helm Audio Bolt sounds excellent because it adds some refinement/a lighter touch to the 58x headphone, bringing it much closer to the 660S sound. The volume of the Helm Bolt with the 58x is quite good. My idea is that you look for the best sound for a bargain value, and this means developing decision skills, combinations.

Is there a chance these will go on sale any time soon, again? I missed the recent one as I was researching it. :(

The timing couldn't be better to get some 58X on sale. I was using my HD 599SE this morning and out of curiosity switched to the 6XX to see how it would sound out of the Apple USB-C DAC. It immediately struck me how much more comfortable the 6XX are...sure enough I end up on the DROP site and got the 58X for $129 (after finally using my $10 rewards). Can't wait to get these.
Out of curiosity, anyone try to pair this with a Valhalla 2? The 150ohm impedance seems to me it might be at least passable on that amp. To me the 599 just does not pair with a VH2 and frankly sounds bad, even on low gain. edit: did some digging and see at least a couple of people have paired it with Valhalla, and with good results! Extra excited to get these now!
