Surround Sound Head Phones

These are actual 7.1/7.2 Headphones, as opposed to those that use virtual 7.1 surround sound technology commonly found in other models. The True 7.1/7.2 Headphones feature ten speakers - five per ear - wired together to simulate a 7.1 or 7.2 surround sound experience. The arrangement of the speakers replicates that of a standard 7.1/2 system, while the ear cups are designed for optimal fit. I once 3D printed a pair myself but struggled to find thin wiring at the time, resulting in bulky wiring. A decent amplifier, like Creative Labs connected to my PC with four stereo jacks at the back, provided the best sound quality when paired with the speakers I sourced from AliExpress. These included 2x 40 mm drivers for the 'subs', 6x 14.8 mm drivers for the 'centre', 'front L&R' and 'L&R', and 2x 10 mm drivers for the 'back L&R'. The headband is an experimental feature, as with the entire project.
