X-Fi and Gaming Headsets question

[AaronW]

Gonna get myself a X-Fi music and have a few questions.

I know the X-Fi has a mode for your headphones when gaming. Is this for normal or gaming headsets? How do gaming headsets work? Do they have more than one speaker in each earpiece?

Thanks

The CMSS headphone surround works very well on the X-Fi,i just use a pair of decent Sennheiser headphones & the sound is amazing

Cheers. My Sennheiser HD25 should hopfully do the trick then
