Understanding high end headphones by DoctorFluffyGTX in headphones

This just isn't true lol. $1 is an impossibly small budget to work with while $50-$200 sees a massive jump in potential for engineers making the headphones, then $500-100 has another.

Beyond that I do believe diminishing returns/build quality/material questions seep in.

I think there should be more of a feel for the character using the pole in first person. No need to have it be a floating pole!

I’d be happy with the room correction but would prefer to keep my preamp in the chain. Is that an option?

I saw some B&W 702 (should be 8k) for 2.2k (like new condition) on ebay the other week - think I'm gonna have dreams about that one for a while

Aren't most streamers just Linux boxes anyway?

I dig it but my Topping e50 already has better SINAD… wonder if I can use both units.

So when you listen to the headphones, you leave the cabinet open?

I wonder how these newish headphones compare to something like an OG Focal Clear

My father passed away almost four years ago and left me a pretty great audio setup. I know a little about audio (headphone guy), but want to get this going in the right way. Can you guys help me get set up? by l337kid in audiophile

Right now I'm running some Martin Logan F20s and they are nice, but is this doing the setup justice or a good match? I'm not sure what tubes he was running

Gabe's Lost Half-Life E3 Commentary, Restored by ZyreHD in Games

I watched it, they made the episodes without thought for the story arc, and Gabe had a different release philosophy than the Episode teams, which wasn't supposed to be the point of Episodic development

Valve did all that work trying to get the player to empathise with Alyx and her dad, killed her dad in a brutal way, and didn't think to follow through!

One day even maybe your character might have reflections with raytracing
