I still enjoy the 3.1 version: (Creative Labs Ensonique 128)<br>
<br>
A speaker on each side of the monitor and a woofer under the desk.<br>
<br>
Is X-Plane at the stage where it will sound as though the landing gear is<br>
beneath you or the prop in front or the wind on the side in surround sound?<br>
<br>
I doubt it. And I doubt it ever will be unless some kind soul takes it on.<br>
For free as usual of course. It's like the Austin Meyer Food Bank ain't it?<br>
<br>
Many thanks to all who have donated to the cause.<br>
