Uhh... After playing with the vibrations I realised there's like loose part on the left on the headset, can hear something like a spring vibrating against the wall.

Ahhh.. that's sad ohmy.gif. Because of the mic, my father now keeps saying that Roccat is a china brand sweat.gif .

I can't see the third speaker ( left right behind ) too, it's covered. But press it and you will see it there. For god sake, why do you keep questioning Roccat's product?

The headband tissue there got cushion but the headset is really quite heavy sweat.gif

Agreed... bloody hell heavy.


@ <<someone>> With a X-FI Card, you should have the option to choose the amount of Bass ( In Percent / % ) in the control panel in Entertainment mode.

its the default soundcard that equipped in my laptop. but i am surveying external soundcard. any recommendation, bro TDUEnthusiast?

hmm.gif. Well.. Not sure about what external sound cards there are... You could ask for some recommendations though either in the Hardware Question And Answers, or perhaps in the audiophile section wink.gif.

Did you set it to 5.1 Speaker Channel, instead of 7.1? hmm.gif.

So did that media player tweak just work for movies? Or does it somehow have an impact in games?

So more questions -

My onboard sound is:

Realtek ALC 883 8 -Channel High-Definition Audio CODEC
Coaxial / Optical S/PDIF out ports at back I/O
Support Jack-Sensing, Enumeration, Multi-streaming

This good enough or should I aim to get an external?

I see kucingfight is selling various Creative cards, is it ok to get the lowest end one? Which would you guys recommend?

[2ndBuLK] OEM Creative X-FI ELITE PRO. TOP OF THE LINE
[6th WTBULK]OEM Creative SB046A XtremeGamer Fatal1ty
[WTBulk] OEM Creative Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

The best choice would be the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite PRO for RM330 from kucingfight wink.gif.

For example, if im listening to music and the volume its like 5/10% its annoying to hear that low frequency sound.

With higher sound volume(+10%) its a perfect kave.

Have you tried muting the mic...? I noticed if I don't, any sound like the fan spinning sound etc could be heard.

Set it to 5.1 and see if it works wink.gif. By the way Green is for front, while the black is the sub and orange the rear speakers if I'm not mistaken.

4 Strings - Catch A Fall

4 Strings - Catch A fall by Armin Van Buuren. Cool song wink.gif. Make sure to turn the bass up and the volume as well.

DJ Ton TB - Dream Machine ( First State Remix )

My other favorite, remember to turn the bass and volume up or it won't sound good.
