I am more after the awesome mic these headphones has but also can´t say no to force feedback. Should make a lot for games really. What it do is translate frequences lower to 20 hertz to force feedback which is quite realistic if you think about it. We can´t hear it but we can feel it :).

Anyway I don´t got these but would like to hear from anyone who do. I have the Zalman 5.1 surrounds headphones which I love but they don´t have a mic and those USB mics don´t work good with voice buddy. I do have the old Plantronics A90 but those where cheap and though sound very good consider what they cost not so exciting.

So how do you think the audio fx will complement my Zalmans. If there are better force feedback headphones out there please shout it out loud too. I have seen some 5.1 force feedback headphones but it´s mostly for flight sims so surround sound isn´t really that important. It would be to hear where thunder would come from for FS 2004 but really it´s not that of a big deal really. Though if they would be better than my Zalmans why not?
 
I owned Audio Fx's for a couple of days before I rma it.The rumble effect is great,but I tell you why I returned them because their uncomfortable meaning their real tight and their really isn't that much padding on top and starts hurting after awhile.

Haven't tried the mic,but the main reason I returned mine was when you plug in the usb you can actually hear your hard drive load and it get's louder when you load up a game.It's real annoying and it doesnt go away either.You have to turn up the volume past the hard drive sound to get rid of the noise.Edimensional said they have a fix for it on their site,but it didnt do jack.

I now own Kinyo Ky-100 5.1 headphones and very pleased with them.Their way better than my Zalman 5.1 headphones and my rma'd Audio Fx.
 
I have some headphones that are exactly like that you hear the harddrive and everything very annoying. Are you using onboard audio or something like Audigy? Anyway I notice those Kinyon also have "force feedback" how do you like it? Also what standalone mic not USB is there?

Also I read about those it says nothing about PC support for some odd reason?

Can anyone else recommend these they look very good.?
 
I realize this thread is dead, but thought I would chime in, I just purchased a pair of these off NewEgg, should be here today or tomorrow. I will be running them on an A7N8X Dlx motherboard with Soundstorm, I hope they sound better than my Plantronic 90s.

I will post again in a few days after I have had a chance to play with them. If they suck I will be returning them to the Egg, any suggestions for a backup pair?
