How much it cost? it don't have mic right?

- Your rig (mp3 players, amps, sound card etc)
- What type of usage (movies/ gaming/ music etc)
- File format used in your source (i.e. flac, mp3 etc)
- Genre of music you listen to (classical, jazz, metal, etc)
- Headphone/ earphone type (closed, open, circumaural, IEM etc)
- Other requirements (if any) (mic, volume control, 5.1ch, 7.1ch etc)
Looking for a pair of gaming headphones. Preferbaly a true 5.1 ?

Rig : Computer
Usage Gaming and movie, but mainly gaming.
Anytype of headphones

So far have surveyed Roccat Kave, CM Sirius, Razer Timat 7.1 and have used before this turtle beach z6a.

If you've read the last few pages, I think you should already know to stay the hell away from 5.1/7.1 headsets, period.
I'd go out on a dime to admit they're acceptable in terms of positional accuracy, but the audio quality of 5.1/7.1 headsets is just horrendous. It's like putting mud mixed with urine in your ears. No offense intended but that's how it is.

And the Kave? It'll be one of the most uncomfortable headset you'll ever put on your head, ever. It has got this ridiculous clamping pressure, a stupid headband, and the ridiculous weight which doesn't even out on your head at all. I've got a pretty small head and I had headaches after 20 minutes, go figure if you've got a medium-sized head or larger.

If you absolutely just want positional accuracy and nothing else (no sub-bass, no kicks in the mid-bass, non-focused mids) then the Audio Technica ATH-AD700 is your best choice under RM500.
The soundstage is sooooo wide that with a proper HRTF (dolby headphones work well with the AD700), it'll perform as good if not better than a 5.1 headset without sounding like absolute horse ****.

I'll stress it again, you've got 2 ears not 5 or 7 ears. You're human, not a mutant.
Headphones/headsets are close up hearing experience. You do not compare it with a 5.1/7.1 actual speakers setup where everything else is a different story.

hi sifus.. do  help me!

- Your rig: Cube c30, Handphone, lenovo y480
- What type of usage: Music
- File format used in your source: flac, mp3
- Genre of music you listen to: rock/poprock
- Headphone/ earphone type: IEM

my budget is quite tight, around max RM300 or lesser also recommend.. already tried Beyer XP3, but can't seem to find comfort in it so want to try others... tqvm all!

Brainwavz M3 fits your budget. Comes with one of the most comfortable ear tips. Comply ear tips.

not only that, its best suited to your music genre of rock and poprock.

I'll be quoting myself from the Gaming Headsets thread on the Hardware board -
If you've made up your mind you want to stay away from these 'true' 5.1/7.1 headsets, then state your budget. Then everyone here can help you pick up a good set of cans for your gaming needs.

After looking at this link

It seems dolby surround can more or less mimic 5.1. Although i am still sceptical. If that is the game looking for a headphone mainly for gaming, movies and a little bit of music. Price range is around less then 1k.
