These are "7.1" headphones. Now obviously they don't have 8 drivers in them, but what they do have is a USB audio interface that takes 7.1 channels from the computer and runs it through dolby headphone. The specific dolby headphone profile is perfectly tuned to these headphones, so it's like having binaural sound on everything. It legitimately sounds outside of the headphones, even with simple stereo output, not just a little less "headphone like", like there are actual speakers in front of you, just like with binaural recordings.
 
Unfortunately, using the interface with different headphones doesn't work as well, but the headphones themselves sound really good. You could hook the interface up to an amp via 3.5mm, but honestly there's no point, the interface sounds fine by itself. 
 
I seriously recommend checking these out, even if just for the wow factor.

Used these for a bit at my computer for gaming before buying a pair of ath-ad900x's with a mod mic and I'll never go back. G430 didn't blow me away by any means.

Did you use the included software?

Did you use the included software?

Yes. Soundstage and clarity are much better IMO in the ad900x's.

Really? I used a pair for about 9 months, and I was never overly impressed with them. They did seem fine as far as gaming headsets go, but even in the price range there were headphones that were much better; to me, at least.

I never tried these headphones, but I do use dolby headphone with my akg k7xx. Yea, it is pretty much like listening to speakers. The sound comes out of your head, better than any crossfeed I've tried, and for gaming purposes, the ability to have a distinct front and back is great.
