So who all has these and what sound card are you running with them. I just recently installed and SB X-Fi XtremeMusic sound card and looked around on the net for a decent set of headphones. I found these via the bf2 tracker site http://www.turtlebeach.com/site/products/earforce/hpa/. So I ordered them and got them in today, rushed home after work and hooked them up. Set my X-fi to game mode and adjusted settings to 5.1 SRS, fired up BF2, changed Audio settings to X-Fi & Ultra High, and into the game I went. OMG, I almost pee'd myself, the sound is beyond crazy. When I was running just the X-Fi card with some decent Stereo Headphones I thought that was as good as it gets, I was wrong.

I would deffinately add these to your "Need to buy list"...

for that price you could easily get a decent 7.1 surround sound setup... hardly worth it for ponsey earphones

Already have a 7.1 SRS set up but some of us have our own kid(s). I play after mine goes to bed so I have to wear headphones or all that wattage vibrates through the floor and keeps'em awake, then mom gets pissed, and when moms not happy NO ONE IS HAPPY!

Ahhhhh what's $100 greenbacks.... Couple cases of beer and rolls of copenhagen I won't get to drink or chew but the sacrafice was well worth it. Beleive me Sausage, until you dawn a set and listen to the in game sound you always be a skeptic..

Buy.com has em for $71 with free shipping.

Newegg is $69, plus shipping($5)

jr.com has em for $59.(never heard of this company tho)

I am a poor college kid, so i can't afford this......yet. Gonna save up tho(after i buy my x-fi and G5).
