[QUOTE="user 15714, post: 897979, member: 15714"] Hi everyone, I'm considering upgrading my corsairs headphones to something better like audeze or hifiman, but have a question regarding non-gaming cans. As far as I understand from comments on the internet, I wouldn't really need a dac/amp to drive these monster headphones, but its better to do so. My situation is, I love gaming on the PC as well as listening music on it. Will getting a dac/amp take away the immersion that my current 7.1-virtual cans offer at the moment (i.o.w hearing footsteps and birds etc in a game behind me or to the sides)? Or is the 7.1 depending on the gaming-sound engine, and I shouldn't worry about it as it will come through regardless? Thanks. -G- [/QUOTE]
