Hey guys,
I've been trying to do research on a good pair of surround sound headphones for my late night movies/ps3 playing. The pioneer is the one that seems to come ahead in most reviews I'm finding. I would prefer a wired set due to the inherent limitations in transmission, and I would also love to be able to use this set with my zune 120 that I've loaded WMA lossless (currently usiong etymotic er-6 buds; I love em but they get uncomfortable after extended use). Price is not too much of a problem. I'm willing to go around $500 for this set-up, and could probably be talked into a little more if it was worth it. My second question is how well any set of dolby headphones handle blu-ray audio. I currently have my pd3 doing the decoding of the uncompressed audio and sending it to my onkyo 805 as a straight muti-channel output. Would I need to tweak the settings on my ps3 or will the phones automatically compress the signal to what they can handle (speaking more of the pioneer?) I'm just a noob trying to get the most out of my movies and music. Thanks in advance for your help!
