This is an outstanding review, Josh! The way you broke the gaming experience down - including your experiences and opinions on the headphone's dynamic range capabilities and why it could actually be detrimental to games - was very well done. Most people assume only imaging and sound stage capabilities matter for gaming, but you really got in depth here. I wish other reviewers would take the time to do this. Well done sir!

@nebulalungren4909 4 года назад

Love this one, and I've seen all of yours. The footage of the gaming was a great addition, really allowed us to hear some explosions, footsteps, shots, and some directional audio to really drive home and example what you were talking about!

@felipemotorhead 2 года назад

Hey, I have recently found your channel as I'm just starting stepping into the audiophile world and your videos are being very nice and helpful so far. I would like to give you a suggestion that might be a very small thing but definitely something I miss in your videos compared to some others, as I'm not a native English speaker and you speak rather fast, when you mention some products models, I need to go back a few times to really catch the exact model name, in other reviewers they tend to always show a text on screen with the model name when they say it, I think this not only helps for people who struggles to catch up but also gives kind of a sleek professional look to the video.

I play usually single player open world games like Witcher 3, RDR2, AC Odyssey etc. and want to feel immersed in the world. Not into competitive. Would this be good for it or should I get the HD800S?

@nignugful 4 года назад

Hifiman Ananda for a great all arounder in casual or competitive play, Ether CX for a closed back alternative although it is more for the competitive side of gaming, and the AKG K712 or K7XX as almost a “starter” version of the Ananda. The AKG k712 is similar to the Ananda in that in both do casual and competitive gaming well but just misses on a bit of accuracy when things in game are happening directly in front of you

@DaKerim58 4 года назад

I ordered the 1990 at the moment i use 990

@starmartyr 4 года назад

Wouldn't it be better to add compression to lower dynamic range through one's amp or game settings (as offered in a lot of games like say modern warfare) rather than relying on headphones that have that a compressed dynamic range as part of their sound signature?

@ZRay507 4 года назад

What games were you playing? Really interested getting into those

@fr.gregorylockwood3145 4 года назад

Just a general comment, Josh-I greatly appreciate your calm, reasoned and kind approach to your work here. You criticize when necessary, but gently and respectfully, and you get to the heart of the assessment without bloodshed. I’m a studio guy, not an audiophile, but your way of judging gear construction and performance is highly useful for as well. Take care and be safe.

@andyimbrechts6594 4 года назад

Did you experience any crosstalk on your mic input ?

@The_Real_Frisbee 3 года назад

I own the LCD-GX. I found that they really shine when hooked up to a tube amp. Solid State amps make it sound boring, while a good tube amp really brings it to life. Also, with most Audeze you have to EQ it a bit. These are the best LCD straight out of the box, but tightening up the upper mid range really helps these headphones. So I don't quite agree with you on them not being good "audiophile" headphones.

@WayneAlexander 3 года назад

I just bought them too....sounded great even without EQ. If I decide to "tighten" them up, what software for Windows works best?? I hear EQ APO + Peace UI, but I've never used. Do you have any files to import that might be worth testing? Thanks for your time!

@MonteiroM 4 года назад

@ethrun 2 года назад

I don’t know if anyone will see this but I play mostly single player games and plan on getting these (LCD-GX) or the LCD-2 (either open or closed). If I were to pair any of these with Dolby Atmos, and drive them with a Schiit jotunheim, which one would be recommended? Also I am fine with buying a separate mic so the one included with the GX is unnecessary for me. Edit: I also listen to a lot of rap sometimes while gaming Also I’m not necessarily worried about hearing footsteps and such, just getting the best audio quality I can while gaming and listening to music (again specifically rap most of the time)

@Raullives 3 года назад

help!! anybody lol JOSH you have never steered me wrong, I own argons,6xx,elex and now LCD2 so I've progressed as I watch your videos but STUCK I spend most of my time gaming for which I use the LCD2 and I was wondering if the GX would be better than my LCD2 I play Apex Legends 24/7 would you say it would be a redundant purchase?

@legiwastaken 3 года назад

Which headphone would you recommend for mostly exclusive fps (CS:GO, VALORANT) gaming use? In this video you mentioned the Sennheiser HD800S, the Beyerdynamic DT1990 (Pro?) and DT880 (Pro?) and the Sennheiser PC37X for options beside the Audeze GX. Maybe even the Audeze Mobious? Does a higher price on those mean a better quality on those headphones or how should I choose? I understand the HD800S is the 'best' but $1.600 plus w/e amps and dacs are needed plus a mike and arm plus maybe a non onboard soundcard (do i need that with a dac?) might be a little much for me.

@dannybos7024 3 года назад

Gaming does not need to be competitive only. Just like there are different types of headphones from different music genres, you need different types of headphones for different types of games, if you like to play competitive in small maps vs large open world just chilling in Destiny 2 for example, with a really good headphones like the Focal Clear MG Pro is made for Destiny 2.

Kinda curious what the best headphones for gaming are under $300. I have the hd598s, and i feel like i could be getting a better headphone in that price range. My problem is the hd800s are way too expensive, and from what people have said the AKGs dont have a lot of bass… which would be fine for competitive gaming but it would take away immersion

@anomnomnomnivore1350 3 года назад

Honestly I think it depends what you want. I’m a person that games on his own, to escape people. Immersion is mg most important value, and I value a very good dynamic range.

You can hear every single detail, and positioning is based on which direction you're looking at, and how loud or quiet the sound is and if it's getting louder or quieter. Much less expensive, and I even have a really awesome boom mic for them from null audio. You just can't beat it.

Great review. But I didn't get a point, you said Arya does soundstage very well, and imaging too, but you also say it does Sucks for gaming. What does it mean, probably you mean for 'competitive' gaming in small-staged fps, while for immersion in single player, or big fps like Battlefield is good? Also, how is the dynamic range of Arya? I was very interested in Arya as i Loved He1000V2 defenately more than SE, i guess Arya makes for me? I'm a passionate single player gamer..

@nignugful 4 года назад

I recently had both this headphone and the Hifiman Ananda. After playing with them for a couple of weeks I returned the LCD Gx’s and kept the Anandas. The GX’s didn’t image accurately enough to warrant keeping it, to the point of being detrimental. In call of duty warzone, environmental sounds duh as glass breaking or footsteps would sound like they were coming from a different place than they actually were in game. It almost sounded like a bad eq in terms of how it threw off the accuracy of the sound. The slight rumble in gunshots and the slam of explosions was nice but it wasn’t what I was looking for at that price. The anandas while missing some of the bass slam, made up for it in every other way as well as being $200 cheaper. The imaging is much better in warzone, being able to hear squads ripping their parachutes above you and easily picking out treasure crates and footsteps behind walls. Listening to music from a variety of artists including Avicii, Anderson Paak, NAV, and others has been a real treat as well. It just sounds large, grand, and emotional compared to almost a hollowness of the gx. If you’re dead set on trying it, try to go through a retailer like Amazon with a no fuss return policy to see if the GX is right for you. Otherwise, I’m sure there are many other options at similar and even lower prices that you could slap a Modmic on and will get the job done better in terms of competitive gaming and music

@JCATG 3 года назад

To be fair, the included microphone for this headset is already *REALLY* good. In contrast to the much cheaper counterpart of this headset, but a lot more famous SteelSeries Arctis Pro, the microphone audio here is clear, especially during the 9:04 to 9:15-minute mark. This headset is a great choice for serious gamers who would want high-resolution headphones. Anything else other than these being mentioned, great job on the review!

Oh. I was under the impression that the Arya would be fantastic for gaming, considering it being the "best so far" and that you are a gamer. I suppose I might have to buy two headphones, then.

I have the Focal Clear Pro that we talked about before, but I wanted to "upgrade" these to the Arya because while they are fantastic, I'm not pleased with the smaller soundstage. So... maybe Arya... and DT1990 or T1 Gen2?

I miss my HD700 for gaming! It was awesome, but I concur the HD800 is better, so my 700 was redundant. On the GX front I find it to be a very relaxing listen... very smooth. Gaming wise I love it with all sources... be it my Phonitor XE, Schiit Hel(favorite pairing... might be due to aesthetics lol), to direct to my Xbox controller or Switch. PC37x was my go to for a long time! But love the comfort of the GX over the PC37X... though I will probably pick up another one eventually lol. I personally think the GX is great for relaxed listening music sessions with some good whiskey... anyhow, cheers!

3 year comment but hopefully you will see this :) Very interested to know why you miss the HD700? Ive just sold my HD700 and thinking about buying these. Arent they worlds apart? This is double the price and i would think they are way more bassy and "fun" sounding than the HD700? HD700 was very flat to me unless i EQ'ed them. But they were really comfy.

@@Avean to me the GX is the better all arounder for sure! I actually have the HD700 back in the stable and is my primary gaming headphone, but that is due to comfort and the fact it does everything I want it to for gaming. That being said… if I want more immersion or story driven gaming… I prefer my Verites or Atrium Closed(mostly the Atrium Closed… that bass is hard to beat). The GX is stupid good and if I got along with planars more I’d probably still have it.

@@TylersEclectic Yeah the comfort is on another level with the HD700's. Interested to know, sound wise, how do the GX stack up against HD700's? And also comfort? I might just buy HD700 again.... haha. Ive used them for 5+ years without issues.

@@Avean sound wise… I think the GX beats the HD700… but the GX loses to the HD700 in detail, imaging and stage (all great for shooter games and most other games) but, detail and imaging are close. Comfort the HD700 is way more comfy… not as heavy for long gaming sessions… The GX for just music also wins out generally. Honestly I think the HD700 gets a bad wrap in the community due to some overzealous popular community people having disliked it. I do have the felt mods and some after market pads on my HD700 as a heads up. Money where my mouth is I did buy the HD700 again and sold the GX. But, that’s my preference/opinion and not necessarily what’s right for everyone:) Side note the GX looks aesthetically very pleasing ha! But is a large heavy over ear headphone due to the nature of planar magnetic drivers
