Decent headphones

Yeah bro a lot of the great duelers have headphones or some type of audio enhancement to hear better then just a tv with in game audio tweaking as well.

Just so you know and others as well you don't really want anythang with a lot of ba** frequency on you lows side. Ba** distorts sound and overides the highs your wanting to hear. To much ba** can be bad.

I have highly expensive gaming earphones that I use for dueling as well as MP3 playbacks. Earphones have some of the clearest, cleanest sounds outhere with usually less lows and more highs and can have a higher SPL rating.

Mine are competition grade headphones so I don't expect people to spend that much money but when going to look for headphones don't let looks fool you. A $10 pair of earphones for a iPod can outdo a $50 pair that we call "big cans" that look better when really they aren't.

So yeah I say a handful of us use headphones, aint gonna list names tho. No reason to.

I play with the audio from my tv. I only use headphones when I feel like they're necessary, which is like 5% of the time i'm in UT3. War, if you have a HD tv with good audio output, just adjust your settings and play like that. In some cases, this option is better than using headphones (provided that you also have a surround sound setup as well)

I use these
Not for gaming though.

I Use Creative Fatal1ty Headsets. i bought a 3.5mm jack to USB sound card so i can use the Mic on these bad boys :P TBH they are Very Clear and also have good ba** without any distort :D

Originally posted by ReverendCrow personally if you want to make urself better i would just recommend using ur surround sound and just practicing on ur predictions why dont you ask incremental what happened theother day when he finally didnt use his headphones.... he played worse then a noob  lol yes i play with sound (from my surround sound) but most of the skill that comes in to play is predictions

I cant imagine playing a fps gaming without headphones. Your playing without sounds? Your playing half of the game.

I occasionally play without sound and I am the one who gets 10 - 0'd by average duelers. But when I have sound, I can predict things accurately and when to be predicting...

There a limit to someone's skill until you pick up a pair and take it further....

i use surround sound i dont play with headphones i think im one of the only good duelers besides kali who doesnt use headphones everyone else i know uses them using surround sound only goes so far as far as sound goes the rest just comes from knowin how much damage my opponent has absorbed plus watchin headphone users duel is rediculously boring like right now im watchin incremental duel and all hes doing is campin  SOOOOO f***in boring its the only reason he gets so many kills on me is cause of the headphones but just imagine being good without them and THEN using the headphones how much better ull be

I don't camp Rev, u just mad cause u got owned over and over yesterday like a noob unless we were doing the TDM thang.
