haha seriously

I brought home my stack that usually sits on my desk at work so I could fully enjoy my Nighthawks this weekend. Sitting down and listening to them this evening brought a big smile to my face. I try not to turn them up too loud in the office for fear of bothering my neighbors so I savor the opportunity to listen to them a little bit louder at home. These things are dangerous. They make me want to crank it up 'cause they sound so good!

For other owners out there what are pros and cons of the Nighthawks? Asking for a friend

personally I can’t stand them when listening to voice chat or dialogue. Where it puts the voices relative to things like game or video sounds bothers me. In music for lyrics and such this is a non-issue and i enjoy the different presentation.

Pros: W sound signature (if that’s the signature you prefer), wide sound stage, great bass slam, tight bass, mids done well, extremely comfortable, easy to drive
Cons: Treble may be too polite for some, sounds different than what you may be used to, doesn’t look the most attractive

Besides what’s already been said, I’ve enjoyed them with more immersive games like Hollow Knight so far- it’s the only game I have time for right now though. I initially did have a tendency to turn up the volume to dangerous levels though, with these headphones it’s harder to tell you’re in the damage zone.

con - build

Pros: Fun sound, comfort, build (I like the build personally)

Cons: 2.5mm connectors (already had a defective one that thankfully AQ fixed), stock cable is trash, a bit too boomy with podcasts, build (even though I like the build I will admit they have some weak points I worry about), could give you ear damage from listening too loud

Interesting perspective. Thnx for the info

Mmmmm gotcha. Fair enough (about the treble)

Gotcha, that makes sense. Thnx

Interesting that it can be too boomy for podcasts. Guess that makes sense, never considered that. They do add boom too everything

I would second both of jjpablos points. I actually quite like the build and look. Of course that’s personal preference but I expected it to be much less appealing based on the pictures id seen but in person think it looks very good. Also the stock cable is terrible in my opinion definetly needs a replacement for me personally
