An Interview with DMS, and his new headphone - The OMEGA!

Ғылым және технология

In this video, I speak with DMS about his new Omega headphone at CanJam SoCal 2023. This is a long term passion project of his, and the result of years of knowledge and prototyping to get where it is today. This video gives us an inside behind the Omega, and what DMS was trying to achieve. HUGE thanks to DMS for his time at such a busy show.
The headphone is not available yet, but will be sold on www.headphones.com

    I got to try this just before CanJam and I really can't wait for it. It really does take what I love about the 650 and just improve on it. Not too mention that I think it's the most comfortable headphone I've ever worn, including my Empyrean Elite.

    Congratulations 🍾 Yes, the Sen’s 650 🦄 is a worthy platform to build up from ..and as you’ve described YOUR love letter to it ..a great improvement on the OG. I for one, went from the Sen’s 650 to my latest purchase the AUDEZE LCDX (2021) in order to get an day and night improvement over the Sen’s…so yours may hit the proverbial sweet spot! Take care and once again congrats 🎉

    Im just curious. You have heard these, he says the headphones are very much like the 650's and that he designed these to sound like the HD 650 as it was his daily and this is a love letter to the 650 but also what he said is that the HD 560S has the same attributes such as better bass, bass extension, more soundstage and a little more treble extension too. And that is simular to what he said the 560S has and that is why he loves them so much back when he did the review on them and when he has been speaking of them since that review. So if that is the case, these are going to sound very similure if not exactly like the HD 560S. Which I find fantastic. Also what I find cool is that the 560S has basically the same lightweight carrictersitcs as well. So it seems that these are going to sound and be just as comfortable or more so than the 560S and sound very close to them or at the very least have the same sound profile. Im sure the Omegas will sound at least a tiny bit better in some of the areas that the 560S are lacking but at the same time you simply cannot have it all in one set of headphones. And based on the reviews he has done and everything he has said about the 560S and the way he speaks of them and the way he speaks of his headphones we are going to get something very much like the 560S I couldn't be more stoked about that because the Senhisser 560S are my go to headphones and probably my favorite headphones in below 4 figure range though Im almost positive that will change when I end up getting my pair of Omega headphones. On top of that you have DMS that just released a video of how Mid-Fi is dead and has been dead for a long time now. Which of course we can all agree that is absolutely been the case. Than you have DMS release his first headphones being built very simluar to the 560S when it comes to lightweight being a prime factor in the design. I personally have been saying since the 560S was released, that I notice to many reviewers say that the 560S feel cheap simply because they are lightweight and an all plastic design. Which is insane when you take into consideration that Glocks are made of plastic and they are the the most bought firearm in history as well as the most loved. So when you see reviewers saying the build quality is bad simply because they are lightweight. It is like they are saying well Glocks are not durable or precise because they are lightweight and made of plastic. Yet they are the most durable firearm every made and we have seen every other firearm manufacturer follow Glocks lead with the lightweight plastic design that just happens to be the most durable as well. Im super happy that he went the route he has with the Omega headphones as my dream headphones are basically a revised version of the 560S maybe better sounding but not different sounding just, uniqe yet much like the 560S. But even though based his reviews and not just that but the exact words he has used in this video being very close to if not the exact same thing he spoke about the 560S in comparison to the HD 650 I will be purchasing the Omega headphones because Im sure they will sound a little bit better. But the fact that they are designed in such an awesome way is what is driving my purchase as well. I like that they are repairable completely by hand and that there will be parts available and if they are not you will be able to have the part made using his exact specs and for a good price compared to the price you pay the big brands for parts. Im sure they will be a little more durable as well. But Im sure much of the price is coming from the fact that each pair of headphones are made only after you order them and apparently the manufacturing time takes 3 months so from an art standpoint I'm sure they will be outstanding. Plus the repairability and replacement parts are great news.

    Who’s to say what tuning is perfect? We all don’t hear things exactly the same. Big companies who are selling products globally have to settle on a more generic tuning that’ll be acceptable to most people. It’s the only way they can do it on a mass level.

    Hi there, I was looking for a new headset, because I want to replace my old Hyperx Cloud Flight Wireless headphones. I came across your reviews and I think you do a great job. I could listen to you very well and your videos are totally detailed. Keep up the good work :) Mainly I play on the PS5, sometimes also on the pc (mac). With the headphones I dont want to listen to music or watch movies, but the focus is on gaming of all kinds of games and voicechatting with friends. After I have picked out a few headsets I tend between three models. Corsair HS80 Wireless (130€) Steelseries Arctis Nova 7 (130€) Hyperx Cloud lll Wireless (150€) I have seen your videos about all the devices, but I am still unsure. Maybe you can give me a purchase recommendation. Which device do you prefer? Or would you recommend a completely different device? I would be pleased about a feedback :) Many greetings from Germany Jonathan

    I have the astro a40s and use your settings for warzone on astro control center and use your sonar settings I can hear footsteps that I could not hear before, but I still think these are terrible. they have to be on top of you to really pick up sounds especially in multiplayer can you recommend a headset I have watched hundreds of headphone reviews and the 2 I want are the vzr model ones or the turtle beach stealth pros. I've watched and like all the videos I seen on your channel if the vzr ones which dac should I buy the creative g6 or the Schiit Hel 2 and which one for sound sonar or Dolby Atmos any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated as the astros years ago became awful like they hit a switch and made good headphones awful I have a pc that I main with a 4090. and a Xbox series x and a ps5 the Xbox I use for streaming Disney plus. Netflix Hulu for Dolby vision and single player games that aren't on pc game pass the ps5 I use for Singel player games and pc multiplayer games cod apex fortnight battlefield almost anything because pc is better for the games I love. ?
