[SOLVED] Nahimic 3

[Mohos]

Hi, I have a MSI Motherboard with Nahimic 3 App, and I'm thinking of buying Cougar Phontum and it doesn't support 7.1 Suround Sound, it supports Stereo Sound only .. There is a feature in Nahimic that does the Surround Sound, does the headset or any headset other than Phontum support the Surround Sound or not?
I'm typing this post again .. no one type comment in the past post .

Isn't that entirely the point of Nahimic? To somewhat "enable" 7.1 surround on equipment that doesn't natively support it?

Enjoy an immersive virtual 7.1 sound through your standard stereo equipment

I was asking to know who tried it and how was the sound? Was it closer to virtual or true?

You might want to update your original post posing that question.

What you asked was

Haven't tried it myself, but a $50 headset and a software implementation of surround sound is always going to sound closer to "virtual" (because it is) than "true", IMO. There are some good implementations of surround sound in headsets out there..... but they're not $50.
