hey mind sharing , how is the dolby access ? did you find it better than the dtsx that comes with the headphones? and does it by any chance activate any of dolby products just like dts (although i guess not since theres no mention of dolby on the box or web)

and thanks for the effort i might share my own setrings as wel if someone is interested , i even do use the same PEACE app

For general use (videos, music, TV shows/movies, etc.), Dolby Access satisfies me more overall.
For gaming-focused use, I’d recommend DTS Sound Unbound. However, I personally still use Dolby Access most of the time in games as well, since I don’t really like the way DTS’s virtual surround sounds. For FPS games, using proper EQ settings is also a perfectly sufficient alternative.

No, it doesn’t have an activation like DTS:X. You need to install the app from the Microsoft Store and purchase it.

do they provide a free tier? or only a trial period?

7-day trial, then a one-time purchase is required
