It also allows for playback of 32bit/384kHz PCM, DSD64 and DSD128 format over PCM (DoP) audio

Scout Mode

Activate Scout Mode to give yourself a distinct tactical advantage! This tried and tested technology enhances important in-game audio cues - such as footsteps and weapon switching sounds - allowing you to quickly and accurately pinpoint your opponents' location before they pinpoint yours!

Hardware Dolby Digital Decoding

The G6 is able to decode Dolby Digital audio on the fly utilizing the SBAxx-1 chipset. This allows it to be used with both PC's and Gaming Consoles to deliver the ultimate virtual surround experience over headphones or speakers.

Award Winning Virtual Surround

Review after review and comparison after comparison the legendary Sound Blaster virtual surround technology constantly leads the pack. Once you've experienced the difference there's no going back.

Custom Bi-Amplified Headphone AMP

Unlike standard headphone amps which uses one amplifier to power both speakers of headphones, the custom Xamp technology in the G6 powers EACH speaker separately. Delivering powerful audio that never fails to deliver even during the most demanding and dynamic audio moments.

GameVoice Mix* is now available for PlayStation® 4 users on the G6! This feature gives you game audio / chat balance capabilities so that you can find the perfect balance with ease and be focused on the game!

Without having to pause or leave your game's screen, you can seamlessly adjust your game's audio and teammates' chat volume directly on the G6 via the volume control knob. Teammates getting too rowdy on the other end? Control how loud you want them to be by switching between the volume levels of their chat and the game's audio level.

All it takes is a one-time setup, and this feature is always ready when you need it.

*GameVoice Mix is available on PS4™, PS4 Pro and PS4 Slim only, via optical cable connection.
