How can stereo headphones sound more like loudspeakers?

HeadWize - Headphone FAQs
The sound field of most headphones forms in a straight line between the ears, because headphone listening lacks the head-related and visual cues which aid in spatial location. Acoustic simulators make up a broad category of products that electronically restore these cues to make headphones sound more like loudspeakers. There are many types of stereo acoustic simulators, each with different circuitry.

How does the Boostaroo Revolution produce surround sound through regular stereo headphones?

Frequently Asked Boostaroo Questions
The Boostaroo Revolution's patent pending circuit is an adaptation of cross feed circuitry. A cross feed circuit combines parts of the left stereo channel and the right stereo channel. This combination of sound fields alters how your brain perceives what you are hearing. This will make the music seem to come from all around you, rather than just regular left and right. This effect is more apparent in higher grade headphones, and speakers.

Well, what do they sound like?

Tram: Frequently Asked Questions: Pitchfork Record Review
Tram, a band frequently likened to Low, happens to be similarly atmospheric and slow-paced. But the resemblance ends there. In place of Low's Spartan restraint and Duluthian Mormon mystique are a tendency toward sedative multi-instrumental lullabying and a heavy dose of wispy, British melancholy. Tram's arrangements are vibrantly lush, even orchestral at times, but never crowded.

I only have one cable, how can it be carrying stereo sound?

Transom Tools FAQ: Microphones
Cabling can be very confusing, because the same types of wires and connectors can be used in very different ways. In the analog realm, one usually needs one cable for each channel of audio, so connecting most gear will require a cable for the right channel and a cable for the left. RCA cables and 1/4-inch "TS" cables that have a single ring on the jack, handle only one channel of audio.

Do SleepPhones have noise-cancellation technology like those $300 headphones on the market?

SleepPhones FAQ | SleepPhones
If you are trying to cancel out human snoring, you may be disappointed with even the super expensive headphones because noise-cancellation technology is best for canceling out electronic noises that don't fluctuate much. They don't work as well for human voice or snoring. The best trick is to listen to white noise like ocean waves (free track in the download section!) that drown out the snoring.

Unfortunately there is no way to obtain a mono headphone signal from this mixer. The use of a single cup mono headphone is not advised either as it can cause distortion in the headphone amplifier. (See below for system mono option.)

What does the Sleep Deprivation CD sound like?

FAQ About Insomnia, Sleep Deprivation And Sleep Disorders
The main Sleep Deprivation CD track contains the relaxing tones designed to influence your brainwaves and help you fall to sleep. These tones continuously resonate and "vibrate", getting slower as the recording progresses. There's also soothing music played on top of the tones, to relax you further. You can play the CD at any volume. Even at minimum volume, the binaural beats are generated in exactly the same way... meaning you still fall to sleep quickly, not matter how quietly you play the CD.

What do your guitars sound like?

faq/order
Try listening to CDs recorded with my guitars. This can be very deceptive, though. If you don't have access to a recent guitar (try the dealers listed above), here is my two cents on sound. Recording conditions, player technique, and when the instrument was made all have mitigating influences on what you hear. Here is what I work toward: a big sound, very even and sustaining, of great clarity and depth, yet warm and dark.

How do I make my TriAxis sound like the Pro's I hear ?

FAQ's
It's a good question with many answers! FIRSTLY - the TriAxis can be set up with many different sounds - make sure that the sounds within the unit are what you like - a simple statement, but unless you know how to change them with memory dumps, then it's twiddle time on the front controls. Unfortunately that is probably NOT the way to do things - the sounds you hear will be dependent on the other items in your rack including the amp used.
