Hitman 3. Half-way through and it's great so far. 8.5/10

Anybody here tried the "Maiden" Resident Evil Village demo on the PS5? It uses the 3D Audio pretty well. I like the VSS from my G6 a bit more, but for people without external option it's great.

same issue. Anyway I can’t do this because since I’m using the Astro hdmi optical extractor, if it’s powered on I cannot use the optical pass through of my tv for my 4K player on the other hdmi output. No idea why but I think it’s ARC related.

The output is fine. I'm just annoyed that whenever I start the PS5 the sound is too low. Since there's no volume indicator, I'm always having a hard time raising the volume to what I'm used to. Always playing with the volume because what I think was the right volume ends up blasting my ears...

Is there a way with the G6 to set the default volume on the PS5? It always starts way too low.

I agree.

Well since the PS5 Dolby Digital through my TV is producing an insane delay, I've decided to order a HDMI Optical extractor to bypass the TV just to see if it solves the issue. Anybody else here are experience delays when outputting Dolby Digital with their Playstation while using passthrough...

Currently using a Soundblaster G6 with BeyerDynamics DT770 80ohms.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: 7/10. Super well made and detailed.... but I'm 30 hours in, did only the main quest....and feel it,s not getting anywhere. I'm actually going to sell it and redo Ghost of Tsushima (9/10)

My favorite soundtrack of all time is hands-on Final Fantasy VII. But lately I've really enjoyed God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn.

(Note that I'm not an expert as I have the G6 only since december. Other members, please correct me if you disagree.) 1) If you use only USB you will indeed not be able to use the G6 VSS and be stuck with tempest, which I find is good with some games (Demon Souls, Morales, Shadow of the Tomb...

Thanks I’m gonna check that IPhone suggestion. I did ordered a little sound meter just to at least get a sense of what 85db represents in the real world. Edit: for what it’s worth, I plugged the stock iPhone EarPods and turned on that health’s hearing app, put on the theme from Spider-Man...

My G6 also pops and crackle with the PS5 when using VSS.

I have a general question to all members here about sound volume and permanent ear damage. I'm in my late 40s and been using headphones regularily all my life. I'm pretty sure I'm not using them very loud. Still, I do suffer from a slight tinnitus, that is not too annoying but still is making me...

What is your YouTube channel?

Everything seems ok to me. The only thing I can see is maybe your TV passthrough is not set to output dolby digital and is outputting in stereo? It happened to me once. Question I've asked before to owners of the G6 and PS5: When using the optical passthrough and the G6 is surround, are you...

How do you turn it on? I was under the impression that you needed to hold the Scout button or something and it would flash in direct mode. It works when plugged on my laptop but not on the PS5. What do you mean by the "Red Volume One"? There's no red light on the G6 besides the X logo on top.

Not at all. They are the most comfortable headphones I’ve ever owned. Maybe with some time the clamping will go away ? Regarding your tv optical output, on my Sony I need to set the audio output as « audio system » instead of « tv speakers » else the sound will come out in stereo from the...

Hello, Based on my own experience with exactly the same setup 1- For tempest, you use the G6 through the PS5's USB, but for the VSS on the G6, you'll need to output optical from the PS5 to the G6.... except there's no optical port on the PS5 anymore. In my case, I use the optical passthrough...

So you would have both the Modmic and G6 using two USB ports on the PS5? I assume that in "input" you would have the choice of the Modmic and G6 so you could choose the Modmic as the input and the G6 as the Output.

That's what I did on my Beyer Dt770

Changing the level is supposed to make the water sound higher and lower. When I select the type 5 for example it sounds like if it’s running at my chest level. Type 1 is at my ear level.

One thing I discovered is that the 3D audio setup makes a lot of difference (at least for me). I was leaving on default, but realized yesterday that for me the best setting is actually "type 1". That's the one that sound the most to my ear level. I tried Morales again and the sound seems much...

The headphones are BeyerDynamics DT770 80 Ohms. I find that the sound has more bass and somewhat feels less compressed with the G6. But in the end, I guess it's just about the sound signature. The equalizer on the G6 is flat, but I'm not sure about the controller. Maybe the controller brings out...

simply hooked up to the USB on the back of the ps5. And yes there’s a button to turn off SBX on the side
