  Darin Fong's Out-Of-Your-Head gaming preset achieves very similar results and it's a software solution. However, unlike Razer Surround, it's really great. Here, try it out:

Hm... that's interesting, never heard about Out Of Your Head software.  Is it better than SBX surround and Doldby Headphone? anyone tried it out? $150 for just the software?
 
Downloaded the Darin Fong software to try out the trial, but ccan't get it to work.

Oh wow I didn't know that someone made the adapter.

Now I'm really going to consider the k7xx

OOYH is something else entirely. I recommend listening to their example videos.

Guys any recommendations for gaming(action/RPG) and movies/anime
I am using turtle beach elite 800 at the moment , I have never really tried something of like of these two
 
it came down to these two or If you guys have something better

AKG K712 Pro which cost $

240

or
Fostex Massdrop TH-X00 Purpleheart Headphones  $450

My personal preference is the K712 but you're going to need an amp to get the best out of them. From what I've read, as I have no experience with the TH-X00, they do sound better with an amp but they have a relatively low impedance so you can run them easier.

If you want a more neutral signature then go K712, If you want more bass then go TH-X00.
 
It also depends on your listening environment, if you you're going to be listening in a space where theres a lot of external noise, then maybe K712, which is open, might not be the best idea. The TH-X00 will give you a lot better isolation.

My listening environment will be my room which will definitely have air conditioning running depending on time of the year ,so Is this considered noise which will effect K712 greatly?
 

I have SOUND BLASTER OMNI SURROUND 5.1

 
and I am worried about the comfort level of  TH-X00 

 

[MonsieurNiceGuy]

To be frankly honest it might your immersion a little bit, but it shouldn't affect it to bad. I used to use my K712 with a fan on and it didn't ruin it for me. 

The Omni seems like it should do the trick with either headphone. 

I can't speak for comfort about the TH-X00, but it seems to be either hit or miss them. Some people love them, other hate them. The K712 I have no issues wearing for hours upon hours on end. The only headphones I've used that are comfier are the K812s.

Yea but how do you make it to work? I'm using Windows 10.  On his website it says the software only support Windows 7 & 8.
Maybe that's why it's not working? Did you get it to work with windows 10?

So I finally got the Darin Fong Out Of Your Head software to work.
 
My jaw dropped on the floor, wow, it's so AMAZING....I don't get how come not a lot of ppl are using this for Gaming.
It is WAY BETTER than Creative X7 dac / amp with SBX surround, better than any Dolby Headphone, DTS headphone-X, Creative G5 SBX, etc....
 
I have the Creative X7 and I thought it's the best Surround for Gaming until I tried out this software. It just blow the hell out of the SBX surround from the X7.
 
Right now I am using the software with my Chord Mojo DAC / Amp, and let me tell you, it is HEAVEN for Gaming, not only that but you get to pick what Surround sound speakers Measurements / Setup.
 
This software is way worth the money than the Creative X7.

My thoughts exactly. OOYH is just another league when compared to SBX and DH. Unfortunately it's a PC only solution and I don't really play on my PC anymore. The only games I managed to get this to run were L4D2 and Insurgency since they aren't that resource heavy.

Yea true, that it only works with PC.  I would rather spent $150 for this software than spending $400 for the Creative X7.
This software needs to be mention in the first page of this thread.  

 

[Mad Lust Envy]

I haven't tested it yet. I'll think about it in the future when I have the time.

 

[Yethal]

Please do.

 

[Mad Lust Envy]

Yethal can you send me a link to it in private message? I'm sure I'll forget otherwise.

It costs $150? But there is a demo of some sort?
