Listening to a general selection of different music through the Siberia V2 was an overall very pleasing experience. The surround option offered by USB based headsets is mixed up from two channels and never actually 'gets' a true surround signal, so you really only ever get an impression of surround sound rather than a true picture of who is coming up behind you in real-time. This means that this is still the best way for true gamers to hear surround sound, because it's actual surround sound information, in its raw state. Now, let us remind you that all headsets driven through a 5.1 or more channel soundcard do support the latest EAX 5.0 (onwards) surround algorithms in the latest games. In fact, just in the last year or so, we have seen a drop in the range and availability of headsets driven through a sound card, as more and more people choose to go the USB option for personal sound.
