Show us what you've got ... on your head.
Post pics of your audio setup for gaming or listening to music.
Or just chat about which cans you prefer and why?

Keep it real and dont believe everything that is being said in the audio world.

These are my first set of proper headphones, it's taken me quite a while to accumulate my full audio setup but I will be teaming these with my Asus Xonar Essence STX and a mic of some kind that isn't a modmic. They are too pretty to stick things on.

Ive got this soundcard and headset combo

This is perfect for the late night gaming sessions and even sound quite awesome for music.

During the day the soundcard goes of to my Harman Kardon HK3480 stereo receiver to power my custom build subwoofer and 2 KRK R6 passive monitor speakers.

I'll post photos when my new headphone stand arrives. Gotta love free stuff ;)


Currently using some DT770 Pros with a Silverstone DAC combo. The Amplifier also goes off to another amp (a dying AIWA RX-50) that powers a pair of old Mission Model 70s. I'm also going to get my Vinyl player and plug in to that at some point too. Anyone using some decent earphones? If so what you got?
 
I'll post a pic on Tuesday when my AT set arrives ^_^

Woo, I can't wait, I can't wait... (dammit GTA V, every time i'm excited I just hear Stevie Nicks now)

I have some Shure SE310's, obselete now but I would definitely buy some newer Shure's next time around, I think they will last me a long time though. Quite a neutral clean sound, no raging bass but it's definitely there. Not audiophile enough to make any more valuable comments.

Quite some impressive stuff...

I currently use a FiiO E18 as my DAC/AMP together with my AKG Q701 when I'm at my PC at home and when I'm at work or just out for any other reason I use my E18 and Beyerdynamic Custom One Pros.

I'm currently waiting for my AKG K7XX order to arrive tho, this will be interesting.
 
Well looks like my cans won't get delivered until Wednesday now because some moron in the OCUK warehouse made a mistake in the warehouse so now I have to take time off work, Not get paid and then try and make that cash up somehow, I hate people.
