I had been using a cheapo pair of speakers that came with my comp and decided it was time for a new set. So I bought a "house" brand that was total crap. Crackling, sound stutters, you name it. So I took them back in disgust and got Creatives. I couldn't believe it. It was like I was hearing what the engines were supposed to sound like for the first time. Even the C172 sounded a little scary :-) And I didn't get a really high-end set. It's amazing the difference it makes.Cheers,Todd

Add a reasonable sub-woofer and with some aircraft you can convince your neighbours an earthquake is happening. And shake toenails loose!Ah, the Briefing Time tango - blip, roar, out of the chair and down to the front door to deal with next doors` panic attack!Allcott

Speaking of Briefing Time....download VB_SB2C_Helldiver.zip from www.netwings.org and use the R2600 sound set from it by Mike Hambly. It will blow your mind.Todd

I've always had a serious problem with FS sound. It's called neighbors.David
