Do the RS 180's produce surround sound?

No. And not just because these headphones are not made to produce any sort of surround sound, but because it is also physically impossible for ANY headphones to produce surround sound. While there are headphones that are capable of producing a simulation of surround (these don't) no two speaker system of any kind can produce surround, which by definition of surround sound would have to give you 3 channels to your front and at least one channel to the rear. Cnet has a great write up about simulated surround headphones. Check it out and soon you'll be forgetting about simulated surround headphones.

Hi James your comments were a Very Nice Surprise Thank YOU very much :-)I have also discovered that the reason I noticed the volume was a bit low was because I had the attenuator switch on the back in the wrong position because once I switched I noticed the volume increased which solved the low volume problem.I would post that online for others but I don't know how, sorryRegards, Gordon

I believe there are several surround sound presets and that one of them is a 5 ch surround. Hope that helps...

If your surround sound system has an Optical or Coaxial Digital Sound input, the answer is yes . . . . .

It's good. My last system required turning the center speaker up. Occasional increase in treble but really rarely notice missing dialogue. You can always turn surround off, but we never do. Hope that helps. Watching Bourbe Legacy now.

With my surround sound system (Panasonic, 5.1, 1000 watts) on, I've noticed a drastic increase in sound quality, it really makes a difference. The standard speakers on the TV are hardly audible in my opinion. Even on the analog stations, usually only two of the speakers on the surround sound system are putting out sound, it still makes a big difference though. The HD stations, which usually have 5.1 surround sound, are incredible. You should check out a surround sound system. Really makes a difference and complements the TV.

they cant run into a surround sound system i had to buy a audio interface to hook up my monitors and if you use pro tools you must have a digi design interface in order to run the monitor i ran into that problem to so take your time upgrading to studio monitors

Yes, but unless you run them through the unit you will not get true surround sound.

This EQ has only two channels, two outputs. Most surround sound systems come with speakers that match frequency response for the amp that drives them, no need for an eq.

I plug my rs140's into my surround sound theatre DVD/Amplifier and the TV has it's own amplifier and speakers. This allows my wife to adjust the TV speaker output to her liking while I listem through the headphones. My tv is a JVC 52" LCOS though.

Yes, We have RS 110 and the good wife uses them while the 2 of us watch TV. I use the regular speakers that are part of our home entertainment unit.

The sound system runs through the TV, so any peripherals will have surround sound. Just make sure you have enough HDMI ports

No, these headphones just have two speaker units: right and left. In other words, no surround sound, just stereo sound.

This card has a virtual surround processing chip built in. It will will produce surround sound on regular stereo headphones. You don't need a "surround sound headphone". I use a pair of Audio Technica AD-700 stereo headphones with this card and they sound amazing with the surround sound turned on. the card also has a built-in headphone amp which makes a big difference in sound quality when you plug in your headset. There are also various surround settings that you can tune and modify to your liking.

No not for surround, but Have a great sound! Make sure you fully charge it first

Depends on the speakers. If your speakers plug into a speaker port on the back of the computer make sure you plug the speaker wire into the green port. Some systems have as many as 6 ports for surround sound but the normal speaker port out is green. If you are using USB speakers you may need a driver for them. You would want to check the website that sells or manufactures the speakers. Good Luck

I suppose you could do that but I have a surround sound system and they are an excellent complement to it. Nice sound and I am very happy with them.

I have not used that feature, I use external speakers and amp surround sound.
