Quest 3 sound boost trick

[Grindathotte 47]

For those of you who have a Quest 3, you could give this a try.  If you are like me, the chances are you will have a pair of over-ear headphones knocking around, maybe paired with another system.  Put them on over the top of the Quest 3; they just need to cover the sound outlet slots and your ears.  You don't need to connect them up, switch them on, pair them or whatever as you are just using them as passive sound boxes.  The difference is amazing.  Of course, you could just connect/pair them to the Quest 3 or your computer, but why bother, and this way you can keep them paired to the TV, Hi-Fi or phone.

Interesting, however I have yet to get my new Q3 to have sound in either MSFS or DCS. I have sound with movies or videos outside of flight sims. With my HP G2 I used Voicemeter to run sound through the headset and a transducer mounted under my seat and connected through an amplifier with a low-pass filter (homemade Buttkicker). I have yet to figure out how to get it to work with the Q3. Too busy figuring out other things.

$6 iphone 6 covers are my zero-prestige solution.

I use Virtual Desktop and sometimes got no sound through the Q3.  My main monitor is a 4K TV.  The solution was to set the sound output in Virtual Desktop to both PC and headset and mute the monitor.
