i have the px21, not bad i guess, good for sound whoring in cod games (cod4, waw, mw2) not so good in bc2. but im quite happy with it, bought it when i was in the uk, wanted to buy the astros but its too expensive for me. i tried using normal stereo headset with the headphone jack from my lcd, u can hear 'footsteps' but you wont be able to know which way theyre from. px21 does the job pretty good. if u have money to spare, go for true surround sound headsets cool.gif

isn't the A40 a simulated 5.1, not actual??

I've email Sharkoon x-tatic digital, the closest distributor is in singapore. anyone want to do a group buy? online it costs like 110 pounds for the headset and sound processor. group buy might get cheaper.......it got quite good reviews.

yeah, surround Digital Dolby 5.1 with individual control.

hook the decoder to the PS3 with an optical cable.

I've searched endlessly for local distributors but to no avail. sad.gif

Even tried looking for it in Singapore too.

The new AX Pro Dolby model comes with a more flexible microphone boom. looks and feels better than the original rigid white one.

but nice la if you have the money, and dont kacau ppl sleep at night too.
and I dont think turtle beach or a40 is worth the money, only tritton is okay

if you wanna get headset, better get pc headset, and use the workaround with usb soundcard
most bang for buck is get alienware tactx(steelseries 5hv2 rebranding) and a usb soundcard, good sound quality for the cheaper price

ok this is my review of the X-tatic Digital surround headphone. pics at the bottom.

So far, been using it mostly for PS3, but tried a few movies with it. The surround effect is nice, tried Pacific with the gun battles and it was quite real. plus you could hear a lot of faint shelling, shouts, shots that you cant normally hear.

for ps3, so far I tried Yakuza 3 and BF2. BF2 was nice as you could hear ppl walking, vehicles moving etc. Makes its easier to play stealth if that's your cup of tea.

Sound wise, the bass is actually not too bad. Not deep like what you get on an actual home theater, but pretty decent considering its size.

The headphones are pretty comfy, the cups and headband have the soft synthetic feel, and after 5-6 hours of playing, my ears and head didn't hurt nor sweat. this was in a non aircon'd room, just with a fan. The cable is pretty long, and there's a volume control just a couple of inches below the headset. controls volume, and lets you individually adjust the front, center, rear and bass. so you can customise the sound to how u want it. a pretty cool feature to suit the movie/game you play.

i got it for SGD239 from SG, there's a dealer on the website.

if you're looking for an above average surround headset, comfortable with options to customise your sound, then i wouldn't mind recommending this one.

dolby certified sure good one, I hope some day there will be thx certified headset, more ooomph thumbup.gif


btw,
a new headset that will sell like hotcakes:

http://blog.logitech.com/2010/09/28/new-lo...console-gamers/

seems that the wireless box thingy is used for sound input for ps3, and then transmit to the headset.

if logitech distro get a hold of these, all those console gamers, ps3 and xbox are gonna get it.
cos theres practically none ps3 compatible headset (with game audio, not just chat) on the ps3.

not surround sound, but 2.1 is good enough already, cos so far, no headset got true surround (5.1 and 7.1) for ps3,
considering all the audio are from rca, not the optical
