Use headphones only with any virtual surround features turned off.

This is a demonstration of Half-Life 2: Episode One with the Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium's native CMSS-3D HRTF. This level is a perfect demonstration of HRTF, as the concept of illuminating zombies in the darkness for Alyx to shoot makes for an immersive experience. I will admit that it's been a long time since I last played this expansion, so my gameplay isn't the most professional at times.

This trick works with ANY Source engine game that supports snd_legacy_surround 1: Team Fortress 2, Portal, Counter-Strike Source etc.
