      7.1 with headphones, huh? Which ear gets the 1.1 that aren't balanced?

      One ear gets the sub and one ear gets the centre channel? Sounds like whoever made this just started making stuff up.

      Everyone knows you can't sell a product without having marketing wankers spew nonsense all over the box.

      It's like a rule or something, I swear.

        Pretty much.

            Why would anyone go through the effort of making headphones that specifically combine certain frequencies into monaural. that would suck.

              That's a bummer. I just looked and saw that my Philips Uptown headphones that I paid $160 for about 3 - 4 years ago are now like $50-60

                To make you feel off balance when the bass hits only on one side.

                  I'm not sure how it all works but I can tell you the sound quality is great. They have gaming profiles too like FPS footsteps which are crazy when I'm playing Rainbow Six Siege--a game heavily revolving around information of where your enemy is. I wish I knew more about what it's like to manage a gaming server. Ubisoft's servers are the absolute worst I've ever seen though. They're like the new EA.

                      was one of them R6 Siege? The gameplay is great but I can't speak for uplay or the servers. I assume it will be fixed at some point.

                            Steam down for anyone else? Seems to have been offline for over an hour now.

                                    Nothing too fancy.
                                    Dell R720 2 proc (8 cores each) system with 96GB RAM.
                                    Using the PERC H710P with 1GB cache and 6x 4TB NL SAS (7.5k) Way more HDD space than I truly needed, but the current price on the 4TB NL SAS drives was cheaper than all but the 1TB. Only needed 4 drives in RAID10 for my space needs, but needed more IOPS, so added 2 drives.

                                      @JaredBusch We end up doing similar (adding drives for IOPS rather than space) quite often

                                        Just booked airfare for the wife and kids to go to Japan for the summer. I love the IACE one day sale every February!

                                        Wife and I had 4 phones constantly redialing from 09:00 until one connected (my VoIP desk phone btw) at 09:30. Felt like I was trying to get concert tickets in the 80's.

                                        Non-Stop Chicago to Tokyo for $749 x 3 = WIN

                                        We have not been able to travel non-stop for 3 years because of prices. Even now, a non-stop form Chicago to Tokyo is ~$2000
