Pod Fucked my Headset - Hardware

Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 1:54 am Last night I had my headset up pretty damn loud. This morning I just realized Pod's fucking shit blew my front left speaker. The sound it produces sounds drowned out. Kyle, are these your old headphones? Did they thump like the Medusa's without fucking with Bass Redirection? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16836401016


Dolemyte Commander Posts: 1116	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 3:35 am Yeah, those are the ones. They sounded much better (bass-wise), but they had some interference issues will GSM cell phones. I actually think I might have the same problem. For a couple of days now my headphones have been really fuzzy and haven't been able to hear you guys on Ventrilo, which would make sense if one or both of my front speakers are blown. If that's the case, I hate you Pod.

Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 3:39 am My Medusa's have interference with my Nextel anyway. Think i'm just gonna order those headphones and a seperate microphone and mute Pod.

Dolemyte Commander Posts: 1116	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 3:49 am I want a pair of full 5.1 headphones with a microphone and fucking wireless. Why does no one make this? How do we start a headphone/speaker/sound card company? Watch the fuck out Creative.

BloodPod Communications Officer Posts: 230	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 4:00 am LMFAO , i am going to try my other sound shit and see if that works its the realtek 6 channel built on board stuff. hope that will work


Dolemyte Commander Posts: 1116	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 4:40 am I bought these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16836502003 Turtle Beach has some better ones on their site for $100, but that's $60 more. I'll let you know how these are. I am spending a shit load on headphones.

Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 4:55 am The $100 ones are amplified while the cheaper ones aren't. Read a review that the bass sucks on the cheaper. Still looking for a review of the more expensive one. It apparently just came out.


Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 4:59 am Read this review, convinced me to buy the $100 ones from Turtle Beach. http://hardware.gamespot.com/Story-ST-17519-1964---x


Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 5:06 am Fucking backorder. I ordered anyway.


Dolemyte Commander Posts: 1116	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 5:55 am Damn you and your reviews, Dave. The backorder thing was part of my decision, that and I bet NewEgg will have them for $50 or $60 when they have them in stock. If I want to amplify them, I will use one of the Pod-blasting amps that I already have. For $40 bucks I will take the risk that these suck. If they do, and yours are good, well then I will send these to Flatline and I'll be out even more $$$. It's worth a try for the low price, I think. We'll see.

Slayer Tactical Officer Posts: 869	Posted on Wed Jul 6, 2005 5:59 am Gamespot says they rock and IGN says they suck. I'm so confused!
