![]() ![]() Most of the gaming branded stuff is rather tacky plastic quality with little comfort for longterm usage as well as being a bit overhyped. Have looked and tried several options over the years. They aren't cheap but they are about the best 7.1 you can find currently. It has positional information as good as Creative but without the obvious loss of bass. Sennhesier has a few headphones but mostly it's about their GSX DAC/Amplifier and this is the best solution I have tried (since Aureal A3D was discontinued anyway). Creative has a new solution out and it uses measurements of the ear to customise the sound for your ear shape and most people who have used it say its very good but still a little tinny. I have used Creative SBX and CMSS for many years and its positional accuracy is good, but it sounds tinny, you can get cards and headphones and dacs/amps all based on the technology. I am not sure if DTS headphone requires a DTS signal from the game, in the Windows software, it does so I am guessing that is how it works so it's basically useless as very few games utilise it. I haven't tried DTS headphone but a couple of my gamer friends have them and have no positional awareness in Arma 3 so my guess is it doesn't work or they have it configured wrong. Realtek sound cards (most motherboards have this) come with surround capabilities and its also pretty bad. Most 7.1 headphone combinations are based on Dolby headphone and its bad. There are a few primary vendors from a gaming perspective, Realtek, Dolby Headphone, DTS headphone, Creative, Razor and Sennheiser. I have tried almost everything in the surround sound world, even developing my own solution for getting custom head-related transform functions. ![]()
