surround sound in ah?
« on: July 10, 2003, 09:09:11 PM »
Does ah support 5.1 or 6.1 surround sound?  would like to hear the bullets in the rear speaker as everyone is shooting me down. :)  I just don't want to spend the money for the equipment if it is not supported.

On my card (Audigy) I believe I get 4 channel sound.  I don't recall anything coming out of the center channel.  It's a great effect though.  More than once I have been sitting in a tower when a plane flew over, and looked out the window of my house trying to spot the plane.  :)

Apparently AH supports 5- and 6-speaker sound.  I get great effects from 5 speakers and a woofer.

Yep, Running 5.1 speaker setup here and sound definately comes from source. (Great for locating NME GV's when your engine is  turned off).

Used to have a "Videologic Sonic Fury sound card" but 5.1 onboard sound on my new Abit NF7-S  is easily as good.
