Razer's Tiamat Headset Uses 10 Drivers To Produce 7.1 Sound

tiamatVery few headsets out there are "true" surround sound. Most are traditional stereo headphones with "virtual surround sound" — a process that adds depth and directionality, but delivers it through two speakers. Headphones like Tritton's and Psyko's actually use multiple drivers to simulate being in a room with, say, five speaker channels and a subwoofer. They've had mixed success, but maybe Razer will have more luck. Their upcoming Tiamat headset uses no less than 10 individual drivers (5 in each earpiece) to produce what they are saying is a world-first 7.1 sound experience.
