Looking for a good TRUE surround sound headset, check these out.

I've spent sometime checking out and listening to different digital surround sounds with the best being Logitech's G35 and true surround sound like those from Psyko Audio Lab, the Krypton (Tech at my Best Buy named Roch .. "Rock" let me try his) which had some deficiency.
Roch then pointed me to the headset above. Have had them about a week and have been blown away by the ability to deliver crisp, clear directional 5.1 surround sound. Found them on sale and can not tell you how impressive they work. Did take a little time to get them tuned in to correctly deliver surround sound, but hearing tanks leave A and coming to B or going to C on Harvest Day without seeing them was proof enough for me.
Respectfully submitted,
