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.

I've never owned a lossy-capable DAP before, any tips or general suggestions to get the most out of it?
Some Suggestions: Philips SHP-9500S (Open Backed, Cheap, Comfy) Audio Technica ATH-M40x (Closed Back, Relatively cheap, benefits from a pad swap) Massdrop x Hifiman HE 4XX (Open Back, Planar Magnetic driver type, comfy and really fun sound) Massdrop x Pinnacle PX IEMs (In-ear monitors, MMCX replaceable cables, plenty of ear tips, great price)
I hope you have some good luck. Audio quality is something that scales the better the parts of the pipeline become.
I'll check out the models you've listed and see what I can eventually buy towards. I'm pretty excited to listen to familiar favorites in a higher quality.
Also, I've founding watching headphone/equipment reviews from the likes of Z Reviews, and DMS3 TV, Inner Fidelity, and Steve Guttenburg, (all on Youtube) helpful with choosing/upgrading/enjoying my audio gear.
