If i go ahead and get a pair of 5.1 surround headphones for christmas, how well are they going to work with my iPod? I know that i will need a dedicated 5.1 sound card for my PC, but i've been meaning to get one for a while anyway as the onboard is dire, so that's not a problem. But do iPods deliver 5.1 sound? What will happen when i plug a pair of headphones that are supposed to do that into them?
Also, if i may put a couple more questions in here rather than starting new threads:
I'm thinking about getting a Medusa 5.1 headset - anyone got any thoughts on that? Look good? Reccommend anything different?
And finally:
Like i said, i need a soundcard. I'm thinking about something from the cheaper end of the Creative range, but there's really so much to choose from with soundcards that i'm not sure where to start. Again, suggestions and reccommendations?
I'm not great with soundcards because I'm more of a laptop person. It's fairly easy to tell if you're getting a good sound card, usually.

I just got my iPod. If i push the headphone plug all the way down into it's plug I only hear music from one earpiece...I tried a different set of headphones and they did the same thing...Is something wrong w/my iPod
No problem, but I can tell you that you have a loose headphone jack. You can actually buy the amplification circuitry from ebay for around $15 and replace it yourself.
