While shopping for a new PC gaming headset, I've come across a lot of different technologies and different ways to use them to get the best sound of your games. Being the clueless soul I am, maybe you guys (and gals!) can help me out here:
1) Do all headphones support Dolby Headphone technology?
2) Positional 7.1 surround sound - Can an ordinary pair of cheapo headphones support this?
3) What would the benefit be (or not) of using an Astro Gaming mixamp (like that found with the A40) with a PC outfitted with a Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatality sound card? Is the use of the mixamp wasted in this application?
4) Is a headphone that uses USB really an audio sin where audio quality and perfomance is concerned?
5) Are headphones with muliple drivers/speakers (Razer Tiamat) better for producing surround sound than headphones with one single Left and Right driver/speaker (Audio Technica ATH-AD700)?
