System Specs

I recently brought a 5.1 Silverline Headset 751B. Second user off ebay. Only payed £10 inc p&p.

The sound quality is spot on. The bass has to be turned quite low as the built in bass speaker literally vibrates your head if turned up high.

However I find the suround sound is not clairly directional. I brought this headset hoping when gaming with games like cod4 i'd be able to tell the direction of sounds around me. I.e weather a gun shoot or someone moving was behind me or infront.
Turned out even though you can defo tell its suround sound its still hard to tell the direction the sound came from.
I dont know if its just this headset or its 5.1 headsets in general. Does anyone else found this is the case with their 5.1 or 7.1 headset?
