In general it comes down to volume. Only place i "rock" is listening to manowar driving. Playing games with headphones is not where i "blow" the drums....I have kids, se need to be able to hear them when they start fighting lmao.....
and to the qustion. No not tryed out the analog steelseries, but i can set the 2.5`s to analog and they sound pretty ok. I used to play alot of ww2 online and there the surround part was a life saver, the added bonus is that i can hear the planes if they sneak up on me......
