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.

- OLED display that actually looks pretty good. Paired with a great looking, sturdy shell as well. I'm seriously glad these companies are putting more effort into looks as much as sound.
- Excellent, clean and pristine sound for the money. Very good measurements, as presented by AudioScienceReview.
- The use of a DC cable that terminates to a USB, so that you can run it off a portable battery for example, is a pretty good idea in my opinion. Really enhances it's portability factor. Even if it is primarily meant for the desktop. The power source is separate from the audio signal, so you won't get any interference - something I ran into with my previous Schiit Modi 2.
- Incredible Price to Performance ratio. Seriously, you'd be hard pressed to find an alternative with this much value and sound quality for the price.
The Bad- At this price and form factor? Nothing.
Current setup is paired to a Atom Amp from JDS Labs.
