Well, I uninstalled Armory Crate completely and installed Equalizer APO (and the Peace Overlay) and the sound I can now achieve through this headset is amazing.
Bass is now deep and mids and highs are fantastic. Loud rumbles of distant explosions, the satisfying sound of your rifle firing and the perfect click whilst reloading, and footsteps around me is super immersive.
I now appreciate the price tag of these headphones.
The sub par performance that I could achieve with the Armory Crate was making me regret my decision to purchase these, but now im glad I did.
SO, if you are using Armory Crate (AC) and are not completely satisfied with how these cans sound, I suggest removing AC, fresh reboot then downloading and installing Equalizer APO. There is a little playing around with the different frequencies, gain etc but totally worth it.
Enjoy.
