Ok So I am looking into audio solutions for my Mini-Itx Gaming Rig. I'm not looking to spend more than 350-400 dollars but i have taken a long look into it. It seems like nothing comes close to Open Ear headphones and their soundstage Audio Technica's ATH-700x 900x and ADG1's seeming to be the choice to go with If you are looking for surround sound. There are also good reviews for the Sennheiser 363d but no one will say if they have surround sound comparable to the ADG1's.
Most audiophiles say to don't spend extra money for a attached mic and to go with the headphone type that is basically the same but purchase a modmic or a zalman clip on mic. Others say to go with a desk mic. I personally have been looking at the 900x with either a mod mic or blue microphone.
My current PC motherboard is a Maximus VI Impact it has a built in Soundcard but I don't know if i need a USB DAC or something similar to get the full surround sound experience im looking for.
I also thought i could try to buy the 900x's with the USB card from the sennheiser's but there doesn't seem to be a way to purchase it seperate from the headphones
The main idea is for a full sense of immerision when oculus eventually comes out. Thoughts ?
