As a nocturnal dev, the Index's integrated audio and ability to work in the dark are HUGE selling points. Might be time to hang some lighthouses.

AUDIO: Such an upgrade!! Congratulation to the people involvedin that BMR design speaker like. (If I find you I will hug you!) It changes.... everything. It's THE major point of Index. My quest for great VR audio is.... over. They are probably too loud by default so beware!

#ValveIndex’s sound solution is magic. You can stand right next to a person using the headset and not hear a peep; yet they hear crystal clear audio and can hear you just fine. Turn the volume up (if you dare) and you can’t hear anything going on around you; just the game. 🤯

Bobby Blackwolf yeah, they are so killer. when valve told me that the index headset had off-ear audio, I was pretty worried for what that meant for VR music games. that all melted away immediately when I first heard it.

When I first heard the Beat Saber audio, it became readily apparent that the speakers on Index are the best audio solution in VR, bar none. It's not even a comparison. That said, I could hear my PC fans kick up before the audio started, which I couldn't with the Vive + DAS.

WOW! I just played #Audica on my #ValveIndex, and let me tell you it's a marriage made in HEAVEN! The extra vertical FOV is a nice bonus and the sound is Fantastic! #Audica is my VR GOTY right now, not even close

Ummm Very happy and relieved to read all the positive comments about the #ValveIndex audio and speaker system. It's a bit different hey!

Haaaa amazing clip. Mic is clear enough, friend can pretend to be an in-game zombie. Hope someone designs a game with this mechanic intentionally. 😂

Emiltron3000 Things that made me audibly say wow on the index: FOV then the first time I lowered the 'headphones'

The sound on the Valve Index is some Disneyland shit.
