Great Memories - well done in Blu Ray

I was surprised to see the quality in Blu ray, though #2 was a bit rougher than the other two, they all 3 were great to watch again. Sound is much better on 1 & 3, but they were good to watch either way.

Best analog headphones to date!
on October 30, 2012

I have owned many various types of headsets over the years for both work and gaming. By day I work from home and live online with Skype and GoToMeeting, so I needed a good set of headphones I could use with both. Also, while working, I wanted to listen to music when not on conference or customer calls. Then at night when all is done and its time to pick up my favorite shooter and play online, I wanted a set that could give me clarity and pin point accuracy in the sound field positioning. I have owned Medusa’s, PX5’s, other Razer headphones, and Sennheiser’s, to date nothing has worked over all for all the things I wanted like these Tiamat’s have.
In response to USB noise, yeah it’s a grounding issue and nothing ANY headphone mfg that uses a USB to power their headphones is going to be able to fix for you. Find another USB slot, or consider a powered usb hub, that always fixed my hiss/hum issues.
In response to the Mic issues – there are no issues when you get past the “Operator” issue. I found if the mic was not fully extended or pulled up to the final position, then it was low or muted sound and no one could hear me well. Not in Ventrillo, Skype, or GoToMeeting. This means you must extend it fully and bring it up to its final position before it works properly. I was able to get clear noise free audio once I figured out how to use these. Once you turn off Mic Boost, the hiss goes away as well.
I had to come up with some “Y” cable solutions and adapters to get my headphones connected because of the sound card I am using (HT | Omega Claro w/XT). This is a true 7.1 analog sound card with 192kz sound and does not come with the Realtek/Creative driver and performance issues. So pairing it with these headphones was like Peanut Butter and Jelly – they are perfect together for sound quality.
Playing MW3 online I almost feel like its cheating with these headphones. I have vision like a bat (6000x1080 resolution on three 24” monitors also help) with the sound positioning of these headphones. Razer has always made great headphones IMO and they did well with this set. If you need a good quality PC headset and can fork over the $179 for these babies – get them! You will be glad you did. Keep in mind when reading the reviews where it can be user error versus hardware issues, unfortunately not everyone are technical savants and prefer to blame hardware over user errors.

This movie does well to steer clear of the "trekies" who would tear it apart and miss the great overall movie. I have watched Star Trek for over 30 years, all movies, TV shows, etc and this was a great way to breathe new life into a franchise. I am totally impressed and set this as one of my all time favorite movies.
What's great about it: What's not?
What's not so great: Nothing!
