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.

It won't drive passive speakers directly, but the pre-amp output can drive either self-powered speakers or a power amp + passive speaker setup.
I'd say it's first and foremost a DAC, but how much effort/expense was directed towards either the headphone amp or pre-amp sections I don't know.
I'm not really familiar with the T50RPs, but I have a vague recollection that they're low impedance but need a lot of current. If that's correct then the UD-301's max. output power of 200 mW into 32 Ohm may not push the T50RPs quite as far as you'd like.
