Headzone® for Game-Sounddesigner: Do you engineer real sounds to create your own? With 5.1 surround becoming an integral part of software gaming, Headzone® is a perfect tool for programmers and sound designers alike, even when you are on the move.

a friend wrote this to me
The DOLBY box was designed and originally sold by LAKE Technologies. I have the LAKE box and it's pretty interesting. You do get a surround image. Your not of course going to get a true sub. It is much less fatiguing to listen to that normal with headphones. I think the Ranch bought a bunch once. The idea behind the box originally was to allow editors to work in a decent 5.1 environment with out having to construct a lot of mini 5.1 stages. In theory the box will give a more accurate mix stage/ theatre sound than a small room with a 5.1 setup. I originally got it for that reason. The room I was in had no potential for a 5.1 setup that even could come close to accurate (room shape was impossible)

It's a really cool effect - sounds coming not only from 360 around you but from above and below you too.

Coming soon to a iPhone near your hand - Dolby 10.2 surround sound via your iPod Nano! Realistic and completely naturalistic full surround sound via two small ear pieces!
I don't buy it - looks and sounds like marketing hype to me... Dolby Pro Logic II? (maybe Pro Logic one and a half??)

With our exclusive patented MegaSound technology, you don't need a real 5.1 setup to get 5.1 sound! Just buy this box and connect your tiny ear pieces to it and it is guaranteed to sound better than 5.1!!!
It should be known that for good bass, you need big speakers with lots of internal volume - or better, a subwoofer! Another funny thing is that some people actually buy this: one of my old teachers was absolutely convinced that you don't need a Sound Blaster Audigy, the average iPod can give a much better music experience than the $400 sound card with two tiny little ear pieces! Meh, I prefer my Rammstein tracks on a real 5.1 setup.
