Struggle with controls, pairing mode, power On and Auto Power

I love my HDB 630. Even if it didn't punch me when I tried it the first time (mostly because it if my first audiophile headset, but now I love it when I compare the quality of sound between my other consumer headsets), I HATE some parts of the ergonomic of that headset.

So rather just crying in my corner, maybe some of you encountered the same struggles as me and found solution to them, so here are my cons :

- I keep turning ON the pairing mode when I turn ON or OFF the headset, because you need to keep pressure on the power button, but the time between the power trigger and the pairing trigger is too short.

- Due to that, when it goes in Pairing mode, the 630 lose connection to my devices (macbook + google pixel, sometime my dongle) and I have to forget the device and re-pairing it.

- I find the touch sensor being a little bit too sensitive. Any way to decrease sensibility of that ?

- And last one, I didn't find any way to turn this OFF, but the headset keeps turning ON when I take it of the case, I don't like this feature, I prefer to power it ON whenever I want, mostly to avoid auto-connection with my devices, and messing with my audio interfaces

So, for those who encounter this issue (or others, we are here to share our experiencs), how did you fix those ?

And don't get me wrong, I love this headset !

Thank you !

Best bedroom cab / FRFR with Quad Cortex ?

Hey

I am not really happy with my headset (DT 770 or HDB 630) or my speakers (logitech something, good for everything but that) when I have to use my QC. It is missing some rumble, some feeling, or something like that.

So I am looking for a good cabinet (ENGL C30 like, or something good for modern metal mostly) or a good FRFR cab (if there is any good cab, at least i'll be able to dial some IRs, but it will not be that good to work on a live-to-come tone) to play with a bedroom level

It is not tone related, I like my presets and stocks/plugins one, but I need more feeling !

Any idea for something that will give me good feeling for metalcore/modern metal, and avoiding to have my landlord to kick me out ?

Thanks !

Can you achieve "plugin tone" without having those plugins?

It is a pretty fast forward question. I love Plini, Gojira and Tim Henson (not yet available on QC) tones from the plugins, but still I've not got them yet, and based on what I saw (but not heard), they are mostly using stock amp and effects (for the most).

So, can you achieve those signature tones without them ? If yes, where should I start ? (or a 90% sounding like) Or "should I" go and buy those PCOM plugins ?
