I had an expensive pair of sennheiiser headphones.When they broke I bought a cheap pair of headphones.
I can't hear any difference in computer games.
Save your money for more meds. ;)

That depends a lot on what games you play and what soundcard/soundsystem you use. You won't hear a difference in any IL2-variant.

yes but someone mentioned in this forum that cold suwoofer was awsome

in The Three Investigators and the Secret of Terror Castle theex actor uses a subwoofer at 4hz i think to remember(read it 25 years ago :) to scare people

hollywood uses it in their movies to induce moods

acid music got banned for using it to produce mood

i thin clod may use it without breaking the law i f they lay low

[JG52Uther]

Well how good is your hearing? Any hearing loss or damage at all?

Good luck on finding a headset that produces a 4 Hz tone strong enough for you to recognize it on a sub-audible level. Normal onboard sound rarely amplifies sound below 30 Hz. Also remember to set sound-quality to highest in Windows. Most people use windows-default, which for onboard is a medium setting (so you can use 5.1 rendering. With high sampling-rates, 5.1 is not available).

Did anyone see 'Earthquake' at the cinema. Now there was sound to make your teeth rattle. There were apocryphal tales of drink bottles being broken.

Just purchased a pair of ROCCAT Kave's 5.1..

Game sounds amazing and it has the vibration/woofer option...10/10 headset

Concerning your question if a pair of headphones is worth the money I can honestley say YES it is. I bought a SENNHEIZER PC 360 GAME headset worth 160.-€ last week an use them in COD (beta patch). The gaming experience is totally different. The headset brings you quiet very close into the game. (Outstanding!!!) The only thing that you have keep in mind is that you should use a soundblaster card. (XFI CMS3D enabled, Gaming Mode, XFi-Crystalizer enabled, soundcard in Headset modus!!!)
With this hardware the game is a different experience. With TRACK IR 5 the game is very good to play (big advantage against all ods). I strongly recommend to use a soundblaster card with a good headset and TRACK IR 5.

Ah, but did you disable the trees ?

[Kobold10]

What do you mean?

[whoarmongar]

Well its just my little joke.
Prior to latest beta patch, in multiplayer if you didnt disable the trees you run a strong possibility of loosing all sounds.

what a terrific use of a word.. A+

I highly recommend Sennheiser headphones if you have the money for them, they aren't cheap but the quality is what you pay for.

Also you might want to look into what sort of soundcard you have. Larger more powerful headphones are usually designed to be used with a headphone amplifier or dedicated powered headphone jack. Without these the headphones won't be able to reach their performance level.

There are a few soundcards out there with built-in headphone amplifier jacks, my Auzentech X-Fi Forte is one. I use it with a Sennheiser PC350 headset and it sounds great.

... forget it all!

You want a real effect, more than a headset can provide?
Get a "buttkicker-gear":

I personally dont have it but a friend tested it and he said, it makes your bowels shake.

Buttkicker is really good for sims if you adjust it properly. Most just crank it up and it will rattle your teeth which is ridiculous. Set properly, you get the feeling in the seat of your pants that you are in a machine with an engine. You feel the guns shaking the plane. Especially good for WWII planes.

Pull it out of the box and crank it and its a joke. Set it up properly and it will really enhance the immersion factor.

A good pair of headphones really makes a differense but dont forget that as someone allready said that amplifier is also important. I have a pair Sennheiser HD595 headphones and they sound very very dull and powerless without a good amp but a good amplifier does make a big big differense. And many of you were criticising old IL2 sounds and I do agree, they were far from perfect but were really not that bad when you had the hardware to hear them properly. My whole appartment was shaking when I flew a P38 at full throttle (2xDali Ikon2 as mainspeakers, BK Monolith DF+ as sub) and all that I can say is it had a really really great immersionfactor. Many of the old and new samples are very low frequenses and not that many of us have the right hardware to listen to the sounds.
