Moar news.

"That ugly metal band is gone, replaced by a handsome black and silver rig..."

"Last time, the Admiral had nice clear mids, though the bass was hard to find, so Nox replaced a pair of transducers, tweaked the virtual 7.1 (Pro Logic IIx + Dolby Headphone 2) mix, and added an optional bass boost to compensate. We definitely appreciated that extra ooomph for movie explosions and the like, but we're sorry to say those clear mids were seemingly sacrificed in the quest for bigger booms -- the slightly muddier mix made it difficult to identify individual instruments and directional audio cues even in Nox's enclosed audio booth."

I mean, just imagine the possibilities -- you could put a camera on the other side of your head, so that it effectively looked like people could see through your head -- camouflage!
