Yeah, not much point in doing that. Just buy the soundcard when you can, I doubt you'll notice any quality difference between the silly USB thing and the onboard anyway
Why the 170 and not 160 btw? Because of the charging base?

Honestly, no idea. I looked at the 170 and 180, with the 170 being within budget (ain't paying ~€30,- more for open headphones).
But i thought as much about the soundcard.
I mean it prolly is a tiny bit better, but so far, drivers of the thing are like vanished from the webs

Yeah, it's quite ancient
Again though, looking at the specs on paper for the HDR 160 and 170 (the headphone part of the RS series), they're literally identical in terms of audio properties. It's the base where they differ and that mostly seems to be a matter of power; the TX 170 is more powerful and has longer range. Tradeoff is mobility, the TX 160 can actually be battery powered too for mobile use

Well i was just looking at the RS 160 and it seems that it doesn't have that extra bass and surround feature (unless i overlooked it).
One thing i don't like about the RS 160 is that even tho it needs a cable in the headphone, you can't use it while charging.. (which is the same with the 170, but since you NEED to put the headphone on top of the base station it was kinda obvious).
Now i donno if these 2 features (the reach length of 20 meters on the 160 is more than enough for me, so that's no factor) are worth the extra money i have put into it, and i'm seriously temped in returning this one and getting the 160..

Well I personally don't like heavy bass (so that's one you have to make your own mind up about) and the surround feature is not actually surround; it's an equaliser effect that makes things sound more spacious, I recommend leaving that turned off. I didn't like it when I tried these things at least.
As far as the charging goes; instead of putting them on the stand, you just gotta make it a habit to plug them in when you go to sleep
Didn't know you already got them though; how do you like them so far?

Yeah ordered Thursday and got the on Friday.
They are ok, but not worth the money i payed for the 170 at least.
I do however still hear a buzz sound, and googling this is due to KLEER >.>
So yeah, i'm just gonna swap these for the 160 and sound card. ~€110,- is more than enough for something like this.
Shame that i still would have the problem that they are just a little too small for my ears, after hours session they kinda hurt a little on my ears

That's only on extremely low volumes (or when nothing is being transmitted), but yes, it's because of how Kleer works.
The quality of the sound itself is much better than any regular RF transmitter or Bluetooth though.

I solved the problem by lowering the sound on the headphone by about 50% and increased my source (al tho i rather keep my source on ~50%, because some games are damn loud at start and blow out my eardrums ).

I have to live 2 weeks of that kind of money, so take your guess
Plus i have already made my mind (as you could read..), so why would you try to convince me to buy some all-in-1 nonsense when others are trying to convince me to get otherwise?!

You live in reach country anyway (relatively) so what is 75 euro for a folk like you. 75euro is how much I make in 35 hours. How long does it take YOu to earn that kind of money (just offtopic non harm question) |

Seriously KC, grow the fuck up and learn a thing or two about the world. Saus is worse off than you financially, trust me. So great job on cursing at him the way you did, without even reading his fucking posts (one of which was a reply to you as well).
Had it been anyone cursing at you like that you would've gone mental. Your ignorance in that one post is mind blowing, seriously.

I'm not angry, I just think you're ignorant about the rest of the world - once more, just because the average paycheck here is higher than in Poland, does not make everyone richer, as things are also *much* more expensive here. You know absolutely jack shit about what things are like here (in particular for saus) - we don't live in Nirvana, if I showed you my bills you wouldn't be crying as much as you are. I also think it's unfair that you get to treat saus like that (even if it is just on the internet), yet all hell breaks loose the second someone goes against you in a much more civil manner.
Every time I've gone against you I've tried to reason with you without calling you names, yet here you are, starting off your post with "fuck you" in a discussion you have not even been following. This discussion in fact concerns me much more than you, since I'm the one who's been recommending shit to him that is still within his budget.
Quote: | And talk about ignorance... You and some other guys are very ignorant about me and everything I say so.... yeah... its internet aight |
Erm, I think you may want to look up what ignorant means. We're not ignorant about you; at least I'm not. I very well know that you have a job that makes pretty shit money even by Polish standards. We also very well know that you like motion blur, don't get motion sickness from FoV and we know some of your sexual preferences ( ).
You're the one who always presents shit as if they're facts and the same for everyone; even if that may not be your intention. And you just did that again.

If someone doesnt have that much spare money, why even try to convince them to buy shit like sound blaster, its gonna be best bang for the buck or nothing (tho sound blaster headsets atleast will make bang, in a bad way).
And yes KC, before you come to say how good the Aurvana Live ones are, i know, but they are not Sound Blaster even they say so.

Not gonna start this talk about my financial situation (again..), talked about it more then enough before, if you want more info, i suggest you search.
Last thing i'm gonna say about it is that while you can look at statistics, charts etc etc about the Netherlands. It doesn't mean that if the country is a good one that the people in it will be good as well.. it's only a rough sketch taken from a small percentage from the whole population.
So yeah, i'm well below the average earner.. i have 75% of minimal wage here that i have to come by from, while paying virtually the same for monthly stuff as anyone else with 100% or higher has to (yeah i get a few tax decutions, but nothing major).
€40 in the week is left after all monthly payments, a single dinner for a single person costs me around €~5-9 to make per day (depending on what i make and what i still got in the house)..
I'm forced to eat ONCE a day, because i just don't have enough money to do more groceries..
So yeah, even tho you might earn less, things costs shittons lesser there as well, that i know for a fact, even spoke today with my granddad (who moved to Poland last year) about it on the phone.
And btw, you, your mom and dad earn about €1000 combined, that's 250% of your minimal wage per person over there.. and you complain

Sorry to derail things a bit mate, this whole "OMG NL SO RICH!1!1!!!" shit from some people just annoys me when I know the situation you're in - and you're not the only one in this country by far. I just happen to have met you so when I see this nonsense on here I get a little defensive, because I have two relatives in similar situations
And KC, you really would not want to live here; without paperwork you wouldn't get shit here and you'd be worse off than in Poland. It's not just you, there are others on the hump who are much more annoying about it. I've said it dozens of times before and I'll say it again, it's not as black and white as "YOU RECEIVE MORE MONEH". The world doesn't work that way.
