Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
My HS1A started having sound issues in one of the ears, like a part of the sound being muted, and apparently this is an issue with all of them as I've seen threads on the Corsair support forums with the same thing.
So I did what you did and bought a DT 990 Pro to go with a Soundblaster...
I have the beyerdynamics DT 990s and they are awesome, best headphones I have ever had and they work great with CMSS 3D. The sound quality is better than my old Corsair HS1's by a good margin and it still has the excellent sound stage with cleaner bass. Very good positional audio.

I think it depends on the person. I have the aforementioned Dell and the AG was quite jarring at first on white backgrounds but my eyes have gotten use to it. I still see the fuzz but it isn't as bad as when I first got the monitor.
It really depends on what you are coming from. I came from a glossy Samsung TN panel and while the colors don't pop as much, it is much more accurate. The blacks were better on the Samsung but I can distinguish colors alot better now on the Dell.
I have yet to notice any ghosting during my...
I just got mine. Coming from a glossy Samsung TN I do notice the AG on anything white. Colors are fine but anything stark white you can easily tell. Whether this bothers me on the same level as reflections or more I do not know yet.
Going from 22 inches to 24 inches, 1680x1050 to 1920x1200...
IPS Panel aside, 10e has actually done testing on it and is saying it compares favorably to one of the best IPS monitors out there, the NEC 2490WUXi2, which retails for a heck of a lot more and does not have an "e-ips" panel.
Like NCX, I wish this thing had a glossy version as I just love...
10e was talking about the BenQ PVA screen he sold to his friend. The info is looking good, keep the impressions coming! I'll wait on the Samsung 24 inch PLS to come out to compare but it looks like this might be my next monitor until the OLED monitors come out.
They need to stop with that red line but it is less obnoxious. Should be a winner right with the ASUS 24-inch version having a less harsh AG coating compared to its competitors?
No, I think your initial impressions and the hideous logo was enough for me. I'll try my hand at more known quantities with professional reviews. Hopeful for Samsung's 24-inch PLS but that thing won't be coming out anytime soon.
I wonder if I should just wait it out until we get affordable...
I would. Haven't had any issues with sound other then an early problem with the Sound Manager program which kept on closing/not opening on me. For some reason it doesn't do that anymore haha.
Also, Witcher 2 is not playing nicely with it. Can't hear any sound with that game. Works on...
Price is around $380 for Amazon

Very, VERY tempted to pick this up now.
I have the Corsair HS1As and they are great for gaming, ok for music. The Dolby Surround Sound feature is awesome.
Mic is apparently on the quiet side according to friends/reviews.
I have that tv. As long as you get the IPS panel, you will be fine. For a tv, it works good as a monitor, just beware the blacks are absolutely dreadful but the colors are really good and input lag is minimal.
The tv does have panel lottery though.
