For the ps5 I’d just go with something that can be driven from the controller, I’m using shp9500s atm, the only way I’ve made external dacs work is through the tv optical out and the mix gets iffy for headphones cause it thinks it’s speakers…

And honestly I kinda liked the 560s more for gaming than the XS.

May i ask why you prefer the 560s? Everything I see says the XS have better imaging and soundstage.

Not really better imaging imo, they don’t sound as 3d, they do sound bigger but mostly just taller not that much wider.

They’re better headphones all around for music, but I was super impressed with the 560s for gaming, don’t have them anymore to compare cause I couldn’t stand the clamp but the one game I played with them was ghost of tsushima and I thought they sounded crazy 3d, might been the actual game post processing tho, still for that reason get something that works from the controller imo.
