If you already have a mic, don't get a headset. Quality headphones are the way to go

I have no opinion on them because I have never seen them or heard them. My friend who owns countless headphones loves them though.

erickongI've heard their soundstage is great, and since the highs are very good too, you can hear footsteps pretty easy.
Thanks for the info.

The Audio Technica AD700x is apparently a very solid solution for gaming vs. a headset according to reviews and such. It's a bass-light headset good for pinpointing positioning and the like. Just repeating reviews, never owned them. The best set of headphones I've ever personally had for gaming were my Sennheiser 598's pair with downloading Razer Surround for virtual surround but they aren't very durable if you're much of an angry gamer. :P So let's just say I don't have them anymore.

Hemeonhaha, you just broke them eh
But what do you think about lets say, Beyerdynamic's DT880 600ohms?
Will AD-700x be better? i also saw AD-900x for extremely low price on ebay (brand new, discounted)

ProRulesI'm not a headphone junkie by any means as of yet. I have only tried Sennheiser HD598, Audio Technical WS99 (Bass headphone closed back), Audio Technica WS1100i (Bass headphone, semi-open), and HyperX Cloud II's. Out of these the 598's were best likely just due to being open. Competitive gaming cares more about soundstage, seperation, and good high end.
AD900X, according to Youtube, Youtube comments and other shit apparently don't sound that much different than the AD700x. Should also be a good option.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.

Price matching
I ordered the Dekoni Cobalt for $179 and the price dropped to $159 before they even arrived. Some retailers do price match reimbursements if an item goes on sale within a certain time frame after purchase. Does Drop do that?

I am looking for a very good pair of gaming headset, especially FPS games like BF1/4, sometimes i do play some witcher and fallout.
I already own the HD6XX but i want to get a headphone pair just for gaming.
I know that PC37X are nice, but i do not need the mic since i have AT2020 XLR. should i still buy these? i also think about DT770/880/990, or maybe M50X? i realy don't know which one, but nothing too expensive, lets say 150+- price range.
Thanks!
