This is a very seriously looking headphone folks. It is not at all a gaming look.
Sorry but I have to disagree with this. The first time I click the review link I saw the picture without reading the title and what come to my mind was "hey Amir start reviewing a good gaming headphone!"
I had the same reaction, but I don't think a less traditional look is a bad thing; just going to be more divisive. As many have said, offering a subdued stitching option would probably be enough to shake off those connotations. No idea if it's going to be worth it for the extra sales though.
Of course the irony is I would absolutely want to use these for gaming (just not the teenage RGB-everything, Cheetos and Mountain Dew kind).
An amazing-performing closed back is what I've been looking for. Just add an Audeze-GX like boom mic cable and I'd be set.
