It will forever pain me that companies have started pushing "surround sound headphones". We only have 2 ears, you only need 2 speakers to mimick any possible stereo input.
Positional audio is down to the mix, something we can now make happen for any device and any headphones released since the invention of stereo.
Games from the 90s could do this! Games today still do if you set your sound output to "headphones".
Don't fall for products that market something you already have.
