    i want 5.1 channel headphones because my parents dont want 5 speakers plus subwoofer(i have a baby brother). also i dont really have enough room, so im getting some Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers, but i still want 5.1 channel, so headphones is the last resort, so what is the best option?

    I've heard the Zalman ones to be a brilliant option, there's a review on the BT site :)

    I've got a $30 Gainward pair and they're an excellent value. I've heard the zalmans and liked them too but they really are only aesthetically better in my opinion. Only two I've tried and I liked them both. I think the zalmans may have a bit stonger rear channel but I didn't use them for long enough to be sure.

    Zalmans are good. They dont have great sound quality, but they have a good price. If you want anything else, you are looking at something in the $300+ range, so just stick with the zalmans

    I've got a set of medusa 5.1 headphones. I like them a lot. It's also nice that they come with a small amplifier as it deffinately helps the sound quality.

    Another vote for the zalmans, not the greatest but good value!
