I use an LTB Platinum 5.1 headset/mic with my X-Fi.

I personally use a pair of Sony's that I bought at WalMart for $25-$30 bucks. The sound posititioning with the on-board sound is phenominal. My only real complaint is that when I first got them, they were a wee tight on the head, but after a few days of use, they stretched out a bit and were more comfortable to wear.

Anyone try the EA BF2 Headset? I know its cheap ($29). But, i wonder if it might be a good starter headset?

I notice some people sound good and clear over VOIP while others sound loud and static and laser scratchy like.

Is that because of the headset or their configuration?

Medusa 5.1.

Separate amplifier and outputs for your 5.1 speaker set.

avoid the TEAC HP-11

its horrible, the front center and rear speakers are way cheaper than the left/right ones. Also the mini amplifier sucks big time (bad shielded), it mixes channels by its own.

horrible stuff and costs alot

the medusa has a great sound, but its noisy if you turn the volume up. Also its bad shielded, cellphone near the headset and the noises kill your ears!!!!


the best one I could find is the trust Trust 751B 5.1 Silverline Headset. absolut great 5.1 sound. very strong bass and ultra cheap. no ghost noises or other problems.

Get a real soundcard instead of making crappy headphones do the 5.1.

That way you can get quality headphones too.
