So the PSB M4U 1 and 2 are compatible with the BoomPro?

Wow, they're expensive. The 1 seems more ideal, as it doesn't have the noise cancelling feature, which tends to make headphones sound worse than their non-NC versions.

I looked at some unboxings, it looks like standard 3.5mm cables, so I'll take it as a yes. Still, I'll be waiting for your post.

Anyone here getting Symphonia Chronicles? I have a question: Does the back cover state it supports Dolby Digital? They're relatively old games, and I'm guessing it's gonna be stereo.... with MAYBE Pro Logic II at the most.

Asking because, I bought the game digitally, so I can't tell.

You make sure everything was set up the same? Also, do a speaker test in the devices menu. Sometimes it likes to stick to a messed up 2 channel even when you chose multiple.


Yes, every settings are the same like when I used the u3 Somehow the DH surround effect feels weak compared to the u3, especially the rear sound.
Maybe its just my feeling, but i think better to stick with the u3.

It doesn't make sense. If the settings are absolutely identical, the surround effect should be the same. Perhaps you have one stuck on DH-1, while the U3 is on DH-2...

That or the software is properly set up, but your default settings for speakers isn't on 5.1/7.1.

Thanks for reminding me to add that to my slickdeals alerts. I forgot all about it. The only thing I could find in relation to your question was a JP rear box shot that had Linear 2CH PCM on it. So probably stereo.

Yeh, played a bit today, definitely stereo, so I'll be using my TV speakers for this.

Just wanted to let you know that the V-MODA BoomPro also works with the updated Skullcandy Aviator that has the removable cable (SKU # S6AVDM-XXX).

If you plug those into the PLAYSTATION, I think it will work.  The wiring will be a bit messy and controlling game/voice will have to be done manually.
 
 
I don't think the DSS is able to see those little USB soundcards though, only USB headsets like from turtle beach.  So I'm pretty sure you can't plug them into the DSS.

My USB keyboard worked just fine with the USB port on the DSS, so there should be no issue with that. Thanks for the help, I'll let you know how it goes. :wink:

Ahh.  The USB port may act as a passthrough then...

I think so. It even recharges the controllers just fine.

The BoomPro does NOT work with my PSB M4U2 headphones. I guess now i have to wait for the ModMic 4.0. 

What other options do I have at this point?


It should work with the M4U 1. The cable is a standard 3.5mm cable. Don't understand why you need active noise cancelling unless you're on a plane or loud train...

Regular sealed headphones should be enough for daily use if you just need to keep quiet, or keep moderate noise from bugging you. I'll update the first post.
