Hello,

I have an audigy 2 sound card. I am currently using Sennheiser HD600 headphones. The headphones are VERY comfortable and give me great sound. I would however like surround sound headphones that work well for gaming with the Audigy2. If there are any that actually give you the feeling of when I hook my computer up to 5 speakers it would be great. I recenly played FEAR w/ 5 speakers and it was great but prefer not to have the speakers on in the middle of the night. I guess my budget limit is around $400

Thanks

Thanks. I just checked it out. I just posted there to find out if the LBTs have any online manual to tell you what surround sound headphones they have need to link to a sound card.

I really wish Sennheiser made something but for some reason they don't seem to have done much to update their headsets in a while. While they sound great and are about as comfortable as any I've tried, their technology seems a bit antiquated. I would love for them to release some 5 GHz wireless 5.1 headphones. I want to hear when someone is firing or sneaking up from behind when I'm playig some games. I tried a game in surround for the first time and it was amazing. The only issue is I prefer headphones for late night gaming. My HD600's are nice but I'd really like something of high quality, ultra comfortable as well as true surround technology.
