Any possibility of more Hivi Swan monitors?
I see the m200mkIII's were sold on here previously, and I wish they could make a reappearance. What would be even more amazing would be the Swan m300mkII, or, dare I say, the Swan m500...

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?
I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup
Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

$10 Drop Coupon Email not sent?
Trying to buy some gear off Drop for the first time. I was told I would receive an email with a welcome to drop $10 off promo. I never received that email. Drop was able to send me emails for my login token and email for Password update. But for some reason the $10 off coupon was never sent to me.

New here
Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

For me, a good closed back should always have superior bass. From extension, to texture, to impact to thickness. Also, portability is important as they have the ability to be used on the go. For a lot of the nicer closed backs, they are more transportable than actually portable. The exception to that is something like the Campfire Audio Cascade.
My favorite headband layout goes to Meze and Audioquest. The 99C has one of the most comfortable headbands of any headphone I h ave ever used. It's conforming, lightweight, and easy to adjust. The perfect distribution of weight. The Nightowl takes this a step further than the Meze offering better comfort and adjustability but I do question it's strength over time just from how it is constructed. Ignoring that, the Nightowl headband is just about perfect.
From a brand perspective, I enjoy the big players in closed backs: Sony, Meze, Fostex, Sennheiser, MrSpeakers, etc. Personally, I would love to see something (a collabo would be cool) with the likes of ZMF or MrSpeakers as they both have a good library of closed backs. Something with Beyer and the lower models with removable cables would be great as well similar to what was done with the TR-X00.
