How do these compare to the Skullcandy PLYR1 7.1's?

The CM storm is true surround with multiple speakers per ear cup, the Skullcandy is digital surround, with only speaker per cup so the CM sirus provides better more correct 3d positional sound. I only breifly used the Skullcandy 7.1's at a store as a demo they were comfortable, I dont know how they would be after long gaming sessions or after watching a movie but my initial impression was the sound was good they were comfortable, but damn expensive. Ive owned tons of gaming headsets, Turtle Beach (junk) skullcandy (good) Alienware (ok) Logitech (ok) and the SM sirus blows them all out of the water, the build quality is phenominal the soldering and wiring is top notch, the screws and picot points on the headset are way overengineered to make sure they last, there is metal reinforcing every stress point and after almost a year of use they are as good as new. Most of my headsets especially turtle beach require some sort of fix after 3-6 months then a major fix at about 9 months then at the 1 year mark I have to replace them. I cant speak to the longevity of that particular skullcandy headset but the Skullcandy headset i did own (cant remeber the model number) lasted me about a year, then a speaker gave out and I tried to fix them but the speaker was just toast. I will never buy another set of headphones other that the CM Storm Sirus or equivelant set from CM. They are the most comfortable and best made gaming headphones ive ever used. The only headphones Ive got that sound better ar Bose Proffessional Studio headphones that cost like $600. but they dont have a mic. The CM Sirus Headset at less than $100 is a steal, I would be happy with these headphones if they were just as much as teh Skullcandy 7.1's. I say forget the skullcandy set and get the CM Sirus, or something similar from CM in wireless if thats a big deal for you

I cannot tell you the difference between the various models, but I will tell you my s3's are very comfortable, noise blocking, but not to the point that someone cannot get your attention (ie stewardesses, etc.) and the sound quality is very good to excellent. I only use them for books, so I am not sure about music. But I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I don't own P7 but loan from a friend who does. I will say that P7 is a Different can compare to this. Beyer is more open as it is a open design but P7 will have more define mids n low

The main difference is audio quality. The 10 is newer but the 1RNC is a better product. I actually bought both at the same time knowing I'd return the one I liked least. I sent the 10 back and kept the 1. Less important, the 10 is powered by a AAA battery, the 1 is internal. The 1 has a better comfort level on the head than the 10.All of that said, they are both very fine headphones, I just preferred the 1 and didn't mind the extra money in the long run.

Not sure, never owned the pair you have. I can tell you that l love my monsters that I have now. They never fall out of my ears when I'm lifting weights or on the elliptical. I think the sound quality is perfect too. I would recommend these for everybody. One thing the little volume control thing attachéd to the left ear cable gets on my nerves at time . Other then that I proudly bang out to my monsters

I love my SE315-Ks! They have a really great dynamic range with a rich bass & clean clear highs. The sound isolating is equal to the custom in-ear molds that I have & I actually prefer the 315's over them.

i bought them both to compare. The NAD was a bit more comfortable for me as the pads were soft and sealed very well. They both have a similar sound, fairly balanced across the board. I liked the P7 packaging, as it will fold in half, and into a nice case. The NAD folds, but goes in a bag and it's a bit more bulky (the ear cups swivel but they don't stay very flat in the bag and pop out). If you don't plan to use for travel as much, I would probably suggest the NAD as it is cheaper and sounds just as good with similar build quality

Not sure on the differences, but I'll tell you this. These are by far the worst earbuds I've ever owned. And I own quite a lot, from high end, to low. I've been really impressed with the ' meelectronics' series of buds. For the price, you can beat the sound and fit.

I've tried both of them on my trip to New York. The ANC7 isn't as comfortable as the 7b model. However, the bass is definitely stronger on the ANC7. I ultimately chose the 7b because:1. The earcups are larger(i have small ears and the ANC7 still wont go over)2. I prefer balance over bass.3. More comfortable.I hope this helps

I had the same issue and returned them and got a less expensive fataly1. not quite as comfortable and in stero only. I run a sound blaster card with great 2. 1 and 5.1 plugged in back. It your choise.

I actually ordered both and ended up sending back the Sennheisers. Yes, the Sennheisers sound more airy/open, obviousy. And they are ridiculously comfortable. But apart from that, the Brainwavz win. The 598s have a very "warm" sound, which some people might like, but the HM5s had a much more clear and accurate sound. The 598s didn't have nearly as much bass. You couldn't really "feel" it the way you can with the HM5s, and the bass would occasionally peak out with really low stuff. All in all I would recommend the Brainwavz, hands down.

Not surr about q701s but if they are identical performance wise like others have said, go for the 702s. The 702s are extremely comfortable and the sound prod. is first class.

Not sure how they compare, but I can tell you they feel like clouds over your ears. VERY comfortable and great sound. You can listen to music at a normal level but it sounds very loud. We like them a lot!

sorry cannot say, they sounds so bad compared to the skullcandy they were not making the ride, sent them back

I really never got that far since both pairs were defective. I did try one that I was able to install batteries and the noise cancelling was minimal at best, even with the feature turned on. Hope that helps with your choice.

Like the other answer stated, complete overhaul in design. Definitely a better sound, though both headphones will have great sound quality.

They're pretty good! I bought mine a couple of months ago and they sound great. the 7.1 surround sound is a little overkill but they make for a fantastic 5.1 surround sound headset, just make sure your computer has enough audio jacks at the back for all the wires!
