Hey I'm an audio noob so forgive my noobness. I recently got a Xonar STX with some audio-technica ATH-A900X headphones and they sound amazing. I've been playing with the STX control panel and turning on Dolby headphones and also tried the 7.1, but it makes everything sound far away and echoes. Especially if you listen to music or TV shows. Playing games it's okay but i still think it sounds bad compared to Bi-pass.
I thought i might have set it up wrong but i went to my friends house who had Corsair 1500 USB headset that also has 7.1 virtual and Dolby headphones. Since its USB its pretty idiot proof to setup and i still hear the same effects and echoes. To me it when trying team fortress 2 and tomb raider it kind of makes things sound far away but I can't notice anything directional, I also think it distorts the sound too much and makes it sound unnatural. Am I doing something wrong or is this how it suppose to work?
