Quote: yeah with movie it is different, the advantage is that the voices from the dialogues sound like they are in front of you as it is supposed to be with a 5,1 speaker setup, unlike with stereo heaphone that you hear the voices on the side which is a bit weird. The downside is you...

Quote: If you ever try it you will see there is a world of difference between with and without dolby headphone surround. Absolutely no placebo.

I was also considering the D-5000 to use with my mixamp, i think they have the proper kind of sound for the task, what do you all think?

Quote:  yeah i always do that to but indeed you need another amp with 600ohm cans. But what are the benefits next to the 250 or the 32 versions? with the 32 version you wouldn t need another amp. Do they all have the same sensivity?

Quote: Are you really using the 600ohm version with the mixamp? Sounds like a bad idea...

Quote: I agree it is pretty pointless, but i was asking about the process giving 5,1 with stereo headphone?

Quote:  Why? how does it works comparing to the astro miaxamp?

In my search to replace my shure840 which i will bring back to best buy asap, i saw the HeadZone mixamp on Beyer s website, i wonder how it does comparing to the astro mixamp, except for the kind of useless head tracking device. Does the huge price difference is worth it? It looks a bit more...

I would like to know if it is any good. I own an astro A40 mixamp doing kind of the same thing but much cheaper. Would it be a good upgrade or a waste of cash?

Quote: No never really liked to game with stereo headphones, i mostly did with a 5,1 speaker setup wich is Focal JMlab speakers and an Integra receiver. I really agree of the immersion and everything of the Mixamp, its by far my best choice for night gaming since i have to be careful...

Quote: Well have you ever played an FPS with a discrete 5.1 speaker setup? Because this is accurate, i love my A40 mixamp it sounds great creating a surround effect but it is less accurate than Without the surround mode. You re like the only person i ve ever heard saying the contary...

Quote: Thank You

Quote: And what about the directional accuracy? My only complaint about the A40 Dobly Headphone feature is the lack of accuracy wich is a must when playing FPS games, Is it better with the Tritton? I know there are discretes versions like the AX PRO but really the sound quality isn t...

The headset itself is low quality sound AND build. But i really love the mixamp. You can just use hdmi for all your consoles and players diretly in your TV without a receiver and just connect your tv with  the mixamp via toslink it is great. I tried a few combination of other cans with the...
