Eh, and how it sounds and such.

queen sigil Oct 30, 2020, 4:35 PM

because with 100$ you could basically buy premium switches for your prebuilt

1000$

daring zenith Oct 30, 2020, 4:35 PM

#

(if the prebuilt is hotswappable)

#

And that might be a typo

@placid junco i mean what other products have you used? Cause you can't exactly call something good without reference points. If I heard a void pro and nothing else ever and the void pro was $100 I would call it great but if j heard a ur30 first which is 25usd and the void pro after I would ask why the void pro isn't $3 or 4 usd after

Bass rolls off so bass heads won't like it either

@last plinth no, they are famously used as an example of a headphone that can't image well or sound far.

They just make highs sibelant and all highs morph into one area which isnt good

They image highs too close too
