New Game Headset Comparison w/ 5.1

I've just lost a lot of respect for Tom's Hardware.

How can they publish an article one week hyping the "new" 3D positional audio feature of the upcoming Soundblaster X-Fi, and then later publish the following statement comparing the PC160 to the Medusa 5.1:

"You are really paying for the panache of a Sennheiser headset, and while we can't argue with its sense of style, we do find a lot of fault in paying more for a 2.1 stereo system than a 5.1 behemoth."

I guess they don't realize that 3D positional audio for stereo headphones has been around for years - and its actually quite good with an Audigy 2 or Sensaura.

and was exceptional with aureal's A3D1 and A3D2, even with low/mid-range headphones.
