Cinema sound for freaks

On the one hand, the idea seemed good, a 5.1. model to use as headphones, and somehow I also read about the fact that the Cinera offers a fat bass, similar to the thunder in a modern cinema?

Does it contain an equalizer or simple tone control ?

On the other hand, if you want to redesign the bracket anyway, you can perhaps use a modular system so that freaks can also use their own headphones?

For example, I have two systems with head-related transfer functions (HRTF) with 30-band equalizers.

This is how VR movie and VR sound come together. :-)

... Please note that these are just some of my ideas...

kind regards seifenchef

seifenchef I'm a keen advocate of modular design. At its price point, Cinera can't provide the best of everything, so there will be compromises on quality. By separating the headset (screens), the playback device, and the headphones, Cinera customers can cherry pick the best options out there for handling the playback and audio.

I have 7.1 surround sound gaming headphones with excellent bass, and also earbuds that analyse the structure of your inner ear to provide a customised audio profile tailored to me. However, neither of these options will be available to me when I am wearing the Cinera Edge Pro, as I'll be limited to their built-in headphones.

Built-in headphones keep things simpler, and the design helps support the headset on the head, and I'm sure the audio quality is perfectly adequate, but the flexibility would have been nice.

This is the only thing holding me to back it right away. I prefer my own headphones as everyone has different sound signature taste. For action movies I just use stereo Skullcandy crusher ANC headphones as it gives theater like deep bass effects similar to a 12" subwoofer.

I was about to order Goovis but I have read @Luke_T alot on forum and Goovis does not offer the best resolution and deep blacks similar to an OLED TV. I am waiting if they might step up from 1080p.
