I won't claim to be an expert on audio, but I feel my tastes are perhaps a little more mature than what most gamers seem to be satisfied with these days.
I've collected and listened to a lot of headphones over the years but can't seem to grasp what gamers want. I've compared my friend's Logitech G930's to several headphones of my own, like Beyerdynamic DT880, AKG Q701, Sennheiser HD598/800, etc, and they just don't stack up. Not even close, even against headsets priced under or around them.
Why is it that spending $3000 on a top of the line graphics monster with that slick 1440p IPS monitor justifiable when decent audio isn't? Why aren't sound cards a must-have yet?
Just looking for some insight!
