High-Fidelity Audio Drivers

The 4 cm driver unit supports a 20–40,000 Hz frequency range. This covers the full spectrum of human hearing. Because it is Hi-Res certified, you hear finer audio details. This is vital for detecting footsteps in games. The 32 Ω impedance works well with most PCs and consoles.

Dolby Atmos® Spatial Audio

The headset supports Dolby Atmos® for spatial audio. This creates a 3D soundstage for better situational awareness. You can pinpoint enemy movements more accurately. The 117 dB sensitivity ensures loud, clear output. However, the input power is limited to 30 mW, so check your source volume.

Clear Communication Boom Mic

A unidirectional boom microphone is integrated. It has a sensitivity of -40 dB for voice clarity. The mic focuses on your voice while reducing background noise. This is essential for team coordination in multiplayer games. LED indicators show when the mic is active.

Comfortable Wired Design

The circumaural ear cups fully enclose your ears. This passive noise isolation helps immersion. The head-band is adjustable for a secure fit. At 297 g, it is lightweight for long sessions. The 3.5 mm and USB connectivity offers flexibility for different devices.

Customisable Backlighting

The headset features RGB backlighting with three colours. You can choose from red, green, or blue LEDs. This adds a personal touch to your gaming setup. The rotary volume control is easy to reach. The black cable is robust for daily use.
