What this means its that games and MP3's sound great (all this is run from a SoundBlaster X-Gamer 5.1 sound card through my stereo) - deep rumbling bass, high keening treble, explosions that blow your hair back, screams of the dying and twisting metal like nails on the chalkboard of your brain.
On the other hand, it's always funny if I've been siting here a while, and I get up to go the kitchen...and I realize how quiet everythign else is...and then I realize how loud I had everything.
