Turtle Beach Ear Force DSS2 Dolby Surround Sound Processor $49.99 at Amazon w FS

since the X12 and P11's have the same 50mm single driver regardless of the sound processor, you won;t get much Surround Sound. Now if they had Dual Drivers maybe a tweeter I'd say go for it.

To me the SNR ratio of this amp seems to be a bit low. Maybe that's why it's not advertised.
It doesn't feel like it's worth $50.

don't think it's a repost but this sale has been going on for a bit. It's part of Amazon's ongoing "Dads and Grads" sale that includes games. XP400 for $170 is a good deal. BF3 is $37 (Best Buy is rumored to have it at $35 for next week's ad). Here's a full list:

alright, I got in the DSS2 today and after a brief trial (maybe an hour in Halo Reach), I'm loving it with my X12's. I'm going to put up an Amazon review after I play with them for a few days in some games but I'm excited! If Halo Reach is any indication, then I'm going to love these in other games.

I purchased the X12's from BBY for $20 and thought that the stereo sound was horrible. I had no sense of what direction sounds were coming from in COD MW3... I was almost contemplating taking it back even at that low of a price. I saw the DSS card in the box and thought I should try that but then saw that it is a discontinued product. Was going to purchase the DSS 2 from Amazon until I saw the horrible reviews but went to my local MicroCenter and they happened to have them in stock for $79.99. They price matched Amazon at $49.99 since Amazon is the one actually selling it and I LOVE this add-on. It is a night and day difference with the X12's on my Xbox 360 when using the DSS 2. Of course I can't compare it to the sound quality of the original DSS since I have no way of purchasing the older version. I now use my headphones to play games and watch movies on Xbox via Netflix and Amazon Prime and all with virtual Dolby Digital. Can't beat the price at a total of $75 for the X12, DSS2, and Xbox Audio Adapter.

Note: For those who use HDMI out, you may want to pick up the Xbox Audio Adapter from Monoprice.com for $2.79 as this was a required add-on for me to be able to use the headphones. And for those that do the research, I can confirm that the adapter from Monoprice does not cause the reset problem like the generic versions from Amazon.
