Surround Sound 5.1 Test

[Bewareomef]

i have the sennheiser HD 650 running through a THX certified class D Amp and a 24 bit DAC. this sounds ok, but its still youtube

[LustOrigins]

turtle beach px3s sound great with this.

[superjervis]

where's the fireworks sound? lol

[leventdw]

but they have 7.1 headphones and do you know this 5.1 and 7.1 on a headphone are both virtualy made so what you say that they dont sell such things is not right and it isnt terriblle if your headset sucks with 5.1 ok your problem but i have a G35 and the sound when i go surround ( its 5.1 or 7.1 ) then its amazing good

[HelliXSystems]

Does FLV video or youtube support more than 2chn stereo audio???

[DudeThatAwesome]

BOSE is approved..

[TheDoorknob1]

what song is this? Or where can I download the audio

[shinryusaiha]

@benz turtle beach hpa2's are great as well

[xFLUiiDz]

@benz1980i because you can get 5.1 surround sound headphones -_-

[loltroll1]

Right now you are listening to Stereo sound, you cant get 5.1 or 7.1 via Youtube!

[spudinator2]

@loltroll1 dolby pl FTW

[bogomanna]

[speedBOX34]

[carifyme]

[FPVsean]

@carifyme x530 here :D

[Korsek7070]

youtube doesn't support 5.1 idiots..

[benz1980i]

@Korsek7070 Yeah, youtube doesn't support 5.1 or even 7.1 (yes, I am looking right at you Pallepop909), there is little point having such a demo to show case your aMaZiNg headsets

[mevilpenguin]

If there was ever a cult following for Sigur Ros, like there is for The Grateful Dead, I would be part of it.

[toligen955]

Headsets are only for pussys , thumb up if you agree

[IIGrayfoxII]

@toligen955

i have 5.1 headphones

these are no pussys

[korpel]

haha Skullcandy G.I FTW XD !

[ExclusiveGslick]

Because my headphones have 6 speakers and they are true surround sound headphones.

[benz1980i]

Why use head phones if its a 5.1 surround sound test??

[krystian1333]

@benz1980i

Cause my headphones are 5.1

[buddysmithburg]

@benz1980i Possibly because there are 5.1 headsets

[uknowzjacob1087]

@benz1980i There are things such as 5.1 headsets.

[benz1980i]

@uknowzjacob1087 You are only the 3rd person to say the excat same thing in reply.

[IIGrayfoxII]

@benz1980i

look at the roccat kave 5.1 headphones

i wear them all the time

[MaNxR3mix]

@IIGrayfoxII So do i, they are awesome!

[brandonhughes7]

@benz1980i because like mine there are 5.1 surround sound sony headphones

[benz1980i]

@brandonhughes7 Geez, I wouldn't have known that if you weren't the 8th person to say the exact same thing!! lol It sucks that I have the most thumbs up because people see that and think they are the only person to tell me what I didn't know 2 months ago.

I guess now I know there are 'Sony' headphones that support this ;-)

[brandonhughes7]

@benz1980i ya there are those but it took me a long time to save up they cost me a fortune

[PkKingX11]

@benz1980i There are surround sound headphones out there...

[benz1980i]

@PkKingX11 Another one ZackChannel- you must be laughing. PkKing, read the other comments to understand what I am talking about

[ZackChannel]

@benz1980i lol

[Timbojones0123]

@benz1980i Virtual 5.1 Duhhh. pro logic 2

[bleugate]

@benz1980i

Cause high end headphones are 5.1 hahahaha

[benz1980i]

@bleugate hahahaha.........scroll down

[CryptoMast3rP]

because you have to have suround sounds speakers, thats why its called a surround sound test

[johnerg14]

@benz1980i because some headphones have even 7.1 technology...

[Pallepop909]

@benz1980i headsets can also have sorround sound.. just to mention one the logitech G35 has 7.1 dolby digital

[cornishboytellam]

@benz1980i you can get 5.1 and 7.1 headsets tard!!

[cornishboytellam]

@benz1980i 5.1 headphones idiot!

[benz1980i]

@cornishboytellam I give up!

[Doowoo]

@benz1980i Cause some headphones have 5.1, even 7.1. Im using logitech G35 for example.

[OneMightyThor]

@benz1980i

Because 5.1 surround sound headphones/headsets do exist

take for example the Roccat Kave with REAL 5.1 surround sound, no fake things.

[MAnGaThaBOy]

@OneMightyThor and surround headphones have much better quality for watching movies and shit....

[jsskate100]

@OneMightyThor or Shure SCL4-W

[Spartan117FS]

@OneMightyThor

Why on earth would you want 5.1 headphones, trust me... They are terrible.

What you do want though, is high quality stereo headphones and 3D audio. 3D audio has an infinite amount of directions where the sound can come from (not just left right, front, rear, but up and down as well!) not to mention that with it you can also pinpoint the distance of the sound =)

Look at any large headphone manufacter, like Sennheiser. They don't have a single "5.1 headphone"

[veyron92]

@benz1980i because 7.1 headohones?

[DerStephaaanx]

@veyron92 Logitech G 35 *__* :DD

[gokao609]

@benz1980i surround sound gaming headsets?

[korpel]

@benz1980i because some people can afford good headphone like the RAZER Megalod 7.1 headphone :P

[benz1980i]

@korpel They do indeed look like a quality headset. 

[randomrat]

@benz1980i because you might have 5.1 headphones...

[mesothorium]

@benz1980i 5.1 Roccat Kave headset, thats why

[Boefke1983]

@benz1980i

Headphones are crap compared to surround sets. Most people have cheap crappy headphones anyway haha. Playing this on my Harman Kardon set :)

[GeneralVoka]

@benz1980i and im using a steelseries 7h 7.1 ^^ headset

[Krizz0608]

Icelandic band ftw !

[jumpchair89x]

that coincidental as fuck because right after i got done listening to that song i went looking for a 5.1 test and found this. lmao

[TheAdeguba]

what is the name of the song?

[chris411s]

@TheAdeguba The song is called Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros

[Hikke12]

This song is in the trailer of DisneyNatures Earth.
