followed up by How to get drunk the healthy way this holiday season <| sep |> Excellent choice ! My favourite Mayer tune . <| sep |> The downvotes are possibly because you wrote X . X Surround sound , and many here are pedants . I don ' t believe the Hyper X has multiple drivers , so it ' s a virtual setting . This is good , because multipledrivers suck in anything except some highend In Ear Monitors . Headsets with multiple drivers per ear tend to be poorly balanced wrecks , with cheapo drivers and garbage sound . It ' s a marketing ploy by companies save on developing a proper set of cans . The Hyper X is good because it ' s based on a very good entry level headphone design , and being closed they offer good sound isolation . For anyone playing FPS that require accurate surround binaural positioning look for openair like the the ATH AD 700 X or the a sale on the AKG 701 .
