    Creative Sound Blaster X7 - Detailed Review & Impressions

    Apologies if this has been asked before, I'm wondering if anyone can let me know if the X7 can handle sound from 2 different sources and play them at same time? Just bought a PS4 Pro (not got it yet) and would like to be able to have game sound via optical and PC sound (for discord mainly)...

    Creative Sound Blaster X7 - Detailed Review & Impressions

    Hey guys, amazing thread. I have a quick question, switched on X7 this morning and the volume was at 100% (normally 13% on high gain) and the mic is now strangely playing sounds back to me through the headphones, I've muted it in X7 software panel and that's sorted it, just the couple weeks...

    The Nameless Guide To PC Gaming Audio (with binaural headphone surround sound)

    Probably been answered before but wondering if anyone can let me know the best Xonar settings for Dolby Headphone? Using the Unified drivers if that helps.   Not sure if the system speaker set up also needs changed or if tweaking inside the Xonar driver app is enough.   Thanks, Lee

      I decided to go with the D2X, so will be running from that to my O2 Amp then to my headphones, will also look into the T90s.   I got the D2X (Brand new in box) on eBay for £75, the DX was £55 so I felt it was worth the little extra.   Thanks all for the information.

      Thanks for the suggestions, really helpful. With the Xonar DX, would it be a simple case of plugging the amp into the green "Front Out" slot on the card? Also a bit confused by "Front speaker jacks" sorry, by this do you mean the headphone slot on the front of a case for example, or is this...

    My current setup is the Xonar DGX to O2 Amp, is the DX a good upgrade here? I currently plug my amp into the green speaker line-out on the card.

    That's my issue really, googling seems to say the same. I want something different but definitely not something worse    Maybe a better sound card would be a smarter purchase for me, rather than a side grade with the headphones.

    The Nameless Guide To PC Gaming Audio (with binaural headphone surround sound)

    Not sure of any advantage, think it sets the correct settings from the get go and gives you to option of less RAM usage etc? I just saw it mentioned quite a lot so figured I'd give them a go.

    The Nameless Guide To PC Gaming Audio (with binaural headphone surround sound)

    I just got and installed a Xonar DGX to use with my Fidelio X1s today, and I'm wondering what the best options are for Dolby Headphone? I currently have the Unified Drivers Installed.   I want stereo sound to be unaffected (so music etc sounds normal, not 5.1) but gaming etc to be in 5.1. I'm...

    Pictures of my Pro 900s w/ the mod mic, one with the mic on and one with it off. It's a brilliant little device.

    Well, I got my Ultrasone Pro 900s today and after some gaming on the Syndicate demo + a BF3 single player mission, got a feeling I'll be happy with these.   They are closed but don't clamp enough that I can barely hear my own voice when talking, important that I ain't shouting down the mic...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    Haha, the pair of Pro 900s on ebay (used) ended up going for £245!   I lost the auction, but then bought them apparently brand spanking new unopened from amazon, for £250.   So can't complain really! lol

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I've been reading a bit more about these (pretty much 100% getting them) and a few people say they have boomy bass? as in slow etc, now I know the vast majority say otherwise just wondering really... reason I love my HFI 780s is that the bass is quick and packs a punch, unlike the DT 770 which...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    Thinking about coming from the HFI 780s to these, although I enjoy the 780s for music they just don't cut it for gaming w/ a mixamp, everything is just too harsh.   How are the Pro 900s for gaming? I searched the thread and read some stuff that was positive... just wondering if anyone else...

    So I sold the DT 770 Pro 80s, as much as the positioning impressed me, overall they were just too muddy, as soon as anything hectic happened the positioning went right out the window, they just didn't wow me lol.   I also got rid of my CALs, although I do enjoy them they just barely ever got...
