So I got the Sennheiser HD6xx (HD650) and was looking for a dac amp combo that I could also do a modmic attachment to it and use my headphones when playing games online. That way I can get rid of my other "gaming" headphones that are just horrible and that I'm only using them for the microphone feature. So I was looking at the Sound BlasterX G5 and the fact I can do that on this and connect it to my game system makes me want to buy it, but how does this compare to other dac amp combo's that don't have a mic input for the same price? Is there a cheaper option that's somewhat on par with this?
SiranKaridefinitely buy a good pair of studio headphones allong with your amp+dac, personally I use the beyerdynamic dt 990 pro 250 ohm paired with the mayflower arc amp+dac (I'm a console gamer)
So this is advertised as being console compatible, but when I use it with my Xbox it does not detect my microphone. Is this an issue with my Xbox or the g5?

Anyone know how long the included USB cable is? Trying to figure out if I need to buy another one that can reach my PC, which sits below and next to my desk.
