Alright folks, I'm going to revamp the Headphone FAQ over the next month or two. I don't like the organization, it's too wordy, and lacks sound card recommendations. I'm going to rewrite a lot of it, and put in a new Table of Contents that makes more sense.

• What do you like and not like about the current FAQ?
• What would you like to see changed?
• How do you feel about adding pictures just to break up the text a bit?
• How about SQ charts, like Freq. Response graphs; too techy?

Things I'd like to see added:

1. I need Sound Card recommendations at various price points, and some rationale behind what supports what.
2. Some wireless headset recommendations. SQ suffers, but from a convenience standpoint you can't beat them.
3. A basic on-board vs. sound card discussion.
4. Something for the console folks. I don't know what this means yet.
5. Microphone recommendations for head-mount, desk-mount, and on-cord (the Zalman being the obvious choice of the last one).

Thanks,

Boz

Yeah. It was really bad in STALKER: Clear Sky, for example, when standing near certain anomalies.

thanks ravenguard90 I didn't realize those were just 2 channel. I am an competitive FPS player in games like Battlefield 3 and Team Fortress just looking for something to gain an edge. I would think in this day and age someone would create a good true 7.1 headset. I guess I will just buy some headphones off the FAQZaral_1

Wish I was going. Would be awesome to see that live Escape From Mount Stupid episode, and to see the Giant Bomb panel in person. Oh well.

I was actually wondering the same thing. im leaning towards the Grado's becasue i've always heard praise about grado's. Can anyone confirm that the SR80's are good?

Go to Monoprice. Cheap 4 port component switch works well and learns remote commands so you can switch it from a remote if you want also.rastan

can anybody recommend me some good headphones that has a loud and clear bass sound? msrania

I'm all about good audio when it comes to my music and gaming. Anybody know of any good speakers I could get. I like a lot of bass, so something with like a rediculous amount of watts. I might even just try to wire a Kicker L7 into the system. lol
