Quoted from lllvjr:With a good set over over ear headphones like dr dre beats pro and the potentiometers on the back of my kit turned completely toward bass tones the headphone are actually really good. Comparing a powered sub obviously is different but I wouldn't say Iron Man with headphone sucks, it's one of my favorite games with them.
Uh, I never said the headphones suck. I own your headphones.
I said the bass sucks with headphones. And it does. Even with my Sennheiser's. You just don't get the same impact.
Headphones have their place for sure, that's why I got them, but they are not the ideal way to listen to pinball audio, especially on a pin that has great bass effects like IM. Like you said, comparing with a powered sub is a different experience.
