One important note for those considering this for gaming - the virtual surround in X5 only accepts stereo input, not 7.1 like their older products.
Their product strategy is similar to the smartphone market, where X3, X4, GC7, G6 are similar but each one is missing something.
Like the GC7 I use has 5.1 optical input for consoles, but X4 has only stereo optical input. X4 has the better headphone output, while GC7 has 10 Ohm output impedance and rather limited output (still sounds good to me though). X3 has 5.1 analog outputs. G6 allows sending virtualize audio over optical, but GC7 does not. It's chaos out there.
