This forum doesn't have search... what is wrong with you people!?
So I play Battlefield 4 a lot, and I really started getting a whole lot better when I started playing with headphones. Had been using my integrated amp and bookshelf speakers, which are awesome for music but not so much for gaming.
Now I tried with my Sony MDR-V6, but they're uncomfortable long term. I bought a pair of Steelseries 5hv3 to use the mike, and frankly the mike sucks ass and the headphones don't sound right. I have a pair of AKG K271Mkii for work mainly because I can't hear anyone else with them on. I tried the AKG and they worked pretty well, and I considered buying another set, but then I saw these tek-syndicate videos and the mention of the open design allowing better positioning I thought I'd give it a try. Reading some reviews, the AD500x seemed to be very similar to the AD700x, same size and such with same limitations(crappy cord and headband), so I figured I'd save some money and try them.
I'm not too worried about the bass, actually kind of like that. The AKG K271mkii have weak bass, and I just love them for long term listening.
They're supposed to arrive tomorrow, and I'll followup with my impressions.
