Please include your commenter handle for proper credit.”Headsets claiming to offer “surround sound” have been on the market for a while now, but I'm yet to find one that really works as advertised. Let's replica Patek Philippe 3998 Men's Watch see if the Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma can change that.SpecsPrice: US$89.99Platform: PC/MacWhat's in the box: Headphones, THX adapter, detachable microphone.After a week spent with the Sigma, I'm going to have to report that no, these headphones do not change that.

What they are, though, is a solid late-night sound solution for the PC gamer looking for something in the middle ground between the budget section and the top shelf.The BasicsThe Tactic 3D Sigmas are the more expensive of two new “3D” headphone sets being offered by Creative Labs. They boast 3D sound, can be plugged into replica Patek Philippe 3919G Men's Watch regular headset and microphone ports for other uses (like on an iPod), and if you feel like a drunken laugh also have a feature that will disguise your voice.

If you want to use them as regular stereo headphones, all you need to do is plug them replica Patek Philippe 5053R Men's Watch into the headphone jack on your computer (or other device). If, however, you want to use the “3D” sound effects, you'll need to plug the headphone and mic cables into an included THX adapter, which needs one of your computer's USB ports to run.
