[@vladimirarevshatyan4622]

Fair play! thanks for fair review! I am def following you as rest out there just promoting brand rather then just doing honest review!

Bro.. don't really feel this as in bad taste... Your personal preferences are a mismatch for this pair of headphones.. The ESS quad config is basically meant to be flat as a slab... Like it's not meant for computer generated music. This type of config with the driver specs are going very close into the domain of critical listening.. I would bet if you put on any song with actual instruments it will blow you away. That eq setting maybe a personal favourite for you, but this pair is absolutely not for listening on EQ.. play around with the EQ but keep it +- 2 db. Best turn it off.. Now the Animatrix display, Asus ROG has become a design language which is giving brands like Razer more than a run for their money. Closed back type c integrated matched driver cans, consider connecting them a powered USB hub and see if you can power the hub with a very good SMPS, better if you get a toroidal ac to dc transformer. Easy way, plug them into the type c port of an Android phone and use a lossless audio service, mqa stuff at this price range is an experience but not really a setup for that. Not until windows fixes it's audio stack. Look around if you can get it to work in a linux environment with pulseaudio. They can sound amazing trust me.. Asus doesn't cut corners on audio.. like my amd64 754 pin Asus motherboard still sounds great and it was launched in 2003 or something. Have faith don't EQ and try it with real instruments.. the experience is really worth a try.. Great video.. Not happy about the permanent USB cable but my Razer Megalodon is still working so they may last .. I am yet to see Asus compromise on materials yet. And I could be wrong.. please try once. Good day 😊

They lost me with the none detachable cable. When the cable goes bad you need to replace the whole headset.

[@SocialHardware]

Yeah totally fair point and something I missed in the review

[@firstclaims30]

Yea same here

[@bijnov84]

yeah they lost me also with your comment :D thx!

[@zacharymitrevski]

Awesome video!

[@bagboybrown]

I mean, you have Bass Boost off. Could be a factor, I'm not sure.

[@r0b1n59]

i have this headset and i can confirm that the sound is strange and not the best. not worth the price and we are just paying for the name rog strix and the anime matrix display

[@SocialHardware]

Hey man thanks for sharing your feedback. I was kinda worried that no one else would feel the same. Appreciate you stopping by and watching the video 💪

[@phantomloard0138]

im having trouble connecting the blue tooth to my computer. it shows on the usb that the bluetooth is connected its reconizing the blue tooth the headphones its self isnt connecting to my blue tooth it will just say power off even though I have charged it. so im confused on that part

[@gero2190]

Do they have aura sync with armoury crate?

[@barkasz6066]

I don't get LEDs on a headset. I don't friggin care if it lights up as a recreation of the Mona fucking Lisa, I want it to be comfortable, durable and have great sound.

[@RevanPorkins]

How do you change the ear cups?

[@CY3ER]

The only reason I can think to get these is for streamers that want something flashy

[@SocialHardware]

Yeah agreed...

[@Metalhead-4life]

Doesn't the new Z690 formula have the animate lighting? Kind of destroys your whole black only assumption

[@SocialHardware]

Hey man, thanks the comment, I think you'll find the mobo has a bunch of small holes and RGB lighting underneath and you can't change the pattern or make it fully Animated, not the same as AniMe Mini LED's which only shine white on these headphones but you can make them do whatever you want in terms of animated design just can't change the colour. TLDR: I can see why you might think they are similar cause from the product images they kind of are but they are entirely different. 👍

[@Metalhead-4life]

@@SocialHardware do you have any suggestions for a great gaming headset? I really wanted these, they are $250 where I live but a few people saying the sound is lacking is dissapointing since sound quality is the most important feature in headphones. I don't want wireless & currently have the sennheiser g4me zero headphones

[@LostinGaming0]

What was the microphone setting? 16 bit 44 KHz? that's where the microphone catches up voices like you were in a cave or underwater and it's echoing a little. With 24 bit 48 KHz and above you shouldn't be having this kind of issue on a 250 dollars headset. But if the mic is actually this bad then asus ruined up their best headset ever. :/ And that's really disappointing.

[@Fender01]

Кто от папича?

[@twilightazure]

For a price like that, it should be wireless. I hate wired equipment because anything happen to it, it basically deemed useless

[@JB.Fishing773]

Was that an Nividia logo in the ear muff

[@SocialHardware]

Nah it was the ROG logo

[@harrisonds3950]

I think the premium for these headphones is reasonable for a streamer or something. Someone who'd want to have something visually interesting like that on their stream/podcast... I do really like the look of the AniMe Matrix, but as a general consumer I'd look at something less expensive in ASUS's lineup.

[@jihaddlshad3249]

nice

[@SocialHardware]

Thanks

[@ptpoul]

Forcing you? Are 4k televisions forcing you to upgrade your Netflix subscription?

[@stevenkennett8694]

it's really expensive...because lights... MEH

[@SocialHardware]

basically sums up the video...😂

[@daghanrfatatalay7060]
