    Beautiful! The results will be breathtaking I'm sure.

    My current keyboard: Ducky Shine 4 Cherry MX Clear & Cherry MX Brown (massdrop limited edition). And my current mouse: Steelseries Kinzu V2 Pro. For headphones I alternate between: Sennheiser HD558, Razer Chimaera 5.1, Razer Orca, Razer Electra.

    I'm using a Ducky Shine 4 "Massdrop limited edition" with Cherry MX Clear / Cherry MX Brown switches as a daily general use keyboard. I also use a Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition (Cherry MX Blue) for some games. Much like my controllers, I like to have a variety of input devices to switch around between. Huge fan of mechanical keyboards, and my first one (that I still have and sometimes use) was the Steelseries 6GV2 featuring Cherry MX Black. Also planning on refurbishing a very old mechanical keyboard my family used to have for use with an old Windows 3.1 ( or so) machine; no clear branding or manufacturer, but used a 5-pin DIN to connect, and was made with old school Cherry MX Blue switches.

    I wouldn't mind the mouse, as I'm using a backup mouse for the time being and have a few very good mechanical keyboards already.

    I like the waterproof/dustproof feature of the z2. And as for dbrand, I like that they also do skins for tablets and game controllers too.

    Hasn't bricked my PS3, just the other day I downloaded Battlefield 3 from the PS Store ( free for PS Plus subscribers right now by the way). No issues at all, everything is fine.

    I recently upgraded my PS3 Slim to a 1TB Western Digital Scorpio Blue (part number: WD10JPVT - can be found on NCIX). In my research I found this tool: www.­ridgecrop.­demon.­co.­uk/­guiformat.­htm . Worked flawlessly, and didn't need to change any settings; it auto detected the allocation unit size.

    I hope you're not being serious. Analog as in the signal type. HDMI and Toslink are both digital, and when it comes to digital sound from a PC things tend to get done differently
  11. jon.spartan
    PC games tend to be analog surround these days. I have my soundcard connected to my (aged) receiver with optical and its almost always a stereo signal; Only when pre-encoded DD or DTS (true DD and DTS, no upscaled crap done) is played via passthrough i get 5.1.

    "Am I the only one..." * cringe * Man I hate that opener so much now. But I sure hope not.
  13. jon.spartan
    Drivers are up to date?
  14. jon.spartan
    I recommend using VLC for everything, never had any problems with it. Playing multi-channel stuff from a stereo signal would probably be something like Dolby Pro Logic, like how the Wii does its surround ( not real surround, which i hate. i stay away from virtual surround unless its headphones)

    An update: http://news.xbox.com/2013/06/update And as Linus has said, don't try to act like Sony is your friend making Microsoft look like the bad guy. Any company will go after your money, and some will do whatever it takes. At least we know for sure that Microsoft actually listens to their customer base.
