Hooked Up a Reciever: damn!


Recommended Posts

ok, been on the 360 since November, and due to my home situation and personal aversion to disturbing other people have only gamed on unamped headphones.

finally got off my ass yesterday and got her connected to this trusty old Aiwa reciever...holy crap! with the headphones connected to the reciever...A WHOLE NEW DIMENSION OF SOUND opened to me! games just sound completely different! i was seriously weepy when i put Defjam Icon in...finally those songs come out properly!

and Oblivion...well, suffice to say those previously laughable imperial sewers were suddenly quite creepy.

to anyone out there with just headphones...do not delay, get amped today!

I've had the cops called on me for firing a gun when I once had my old computer running through my reciever and playing Half-Life :laugh:

Even the cops found that hilarious :laugh:

I used to play all my games (console and PC) and watch DVD's with headphones. I got tired of it

why did you get tired of it? it's more private and i like the way headphones insulate you from the outside. plus i live in an apartment plus there's others around me so...gotta be considerate.

At the time I was working a job where I could be called in at any time. I would miss calls and would constantly pause games thinking I heard the phone. I got really tired of that lol.

Sometimes I still watch DVD's using headphones

No kidding, stop pushing the branded crud on us Spartan, go get something better like a Bose 3-2-1 system.

j/k

Jesus I hope the "j/k" is for buying a Bose system.

Their stuff is just WAY overpriced garbage.

how the hell a thread about receivers got hijacked into another one of those PS3/360 thingymajigs beats me.

anyway, Spartan, nice to know there's a 360 official sound system. however, i looked and looked and couldn't see a headphone jack. that's a big nono for me.

but more info on this system will be nice, if it really exists...

gotta say i'm real happy with the Aiwa receiver so far. no 5.1, nothing...just plain old late 80's hi-fi power. forty real watts per channel, west siiide!
