I was shocked to see that SRS Audio Sandbox works in games without having to input any commands or features. I played CS:S, DOD:S, BF2, Quake 4 and COD2 and I notice an improvement in sound. Selecting:

Content: Game
Preset: First Person Shooter
Speaker: Headphones
Technology: WOW HD

Should yield on the best results for some. However, if not you may need to tweak the Advance Controls.

For BF2 the most noticeable features are:
-Directional sounds are more pronounced then before (yes even if you have X-Fi)
-Richer, deeper bass levels.
-AK47 has an awesome throater sound now.
-Sniper rifle has a nice echo effect IMO
-You may need to tweak the Advance settings for that annoying commander spamming.

I use a X-Fi so I am not sure how this will turn out on other sound cards.

It comes with a 15 day trial. Try it out and see if you like it.
You can download the 15 day trial just to get an idea if you like it or not here:

Oh BTW it's wicked when playing music and movies

No, all I did was download it, install it, setup the audio settings then minimized it. Then I start BF2 and notice right away the difference.

LOL I find that hard to believe besides you never mentioned what settings you used.
And as I said before it runs fine with X-fi maybe that's the reason...

I couldn't chose X-Fi in BF2 so the positioning wasn't as good but nice bass.
I ran X-Fi in game mode with CSMM3D hp. Too bad.

rofl, I have to laugh every time i see that

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}
