(More customer reviews)Hello this is one of my first reviews but i will try to give you all the pros and cons of this great headset.
Installation
First of it comes in great packaging, easy to open box, not one of those stupid plastic containers that you have to cut open (you know the kind i mean). Installation is very easy you just take it out of box, go to [...] and download the driver/program for your computer. You then plug the headset into the little usb dongle that game with it, and plug that into a usb port on your computer, and your are set you can start up the program then.
HEADSET
These headsets are set up great, they are nice and big (for anyone like me with big head this is great feature) but they arent so big that it wont fit people with small heads as well. You can adjust them a ton to fit anysize. If you have sigma like me it also has a steel layer inside headband so it wont crack like many headsets do over months/years of putting on and taking off headset. The cord coming from the headset is great, its a rubbery thin ribbon that makes it so it doesnt have stupid bends in it after you take off the retraint (most cords have those dam bends all over so it makes it hassle to get full length out of them) and non tangle design so it doesnt get all knotted up in transport, only downside to cable is its not super long maybe like 6ft. Mic is very nice plugged it in jumped into left 4 dead 2 and chatted with freinds right away without having to adjust any settings and they said i was clear as day. This headset has nice swivel ear cups so if someone is talking to you all you have to do is swivel it away from ear to hear them well as these headsets do cancel noise relatively well. For comfort these are great overall, they took me a while to get the hang of from my old headset but dont be discouraged if they feel wierd at first i spent 4 hours gaming last night and they nvr really got uncomfortable. Made my ears a little bit warm but not too bad. The earpads are made of a squishy leatherlike material, and on the sigmas there is a similar material pad on top so it sits nicely on head. Thats about it for the design of headset.
SOUND/SURROUND SOUND
Almost forgot the most important section lol, how they sound!! First off i tried playing some music mainly techno, rap, and rock. All sounded great. Audio is crystal clear and bass is really deep! For the surround sound feature i played Left 4 dead 2 and Battlefield BC2 to test it out and you can definitly clearly tell which direction sounds are coming from where as with normal headsets its kinda just played over both speakers and hard to distinguish the direction it came from. Most games you will have to tinker with the in game sound settings to get surround working but most arent too bad. Buy ya overall they make good surround sound and are technically better than both 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound setups because it plays sound for the complete 360degree area around you as well as above and below which no other headsets do (well do well at least).
INSIDE THE PROGRAM
The program that sigma and alpha headsets use is a very nice program, you have to have the headset plugged in to start it up which is a minor inconvienence sometimes but no big deal. As far as setup of program when your first start it up it opens to profile chooser where you can try out different premade profiles and modify and save your own settings how you like them. On that Main menu you can also adjust the mic volume and master volume.
THX Trustudio Pro
This is the main feature you will be spending time with in this program, here it allows you to change all the different effects for how sound will sound when playing into your ears. I wont go over every single adjustment category as they are pretty straight forward but to sum up you can adjust Surround sound, bass, crystalizer (enhance music/movies to make them sound livlier), dialog plus(enhances voices so u can understand them better), and smart volume(minimizes sudden volume changes). Along with this area is a nice little demo video that you can play to test out all the sound effects you are changing.
Equalizer
This is where you can customize how the audio sounds (mainly for music i believe) for example you can set it on flat, dance, rock, country etc etc. You can also completely customize your own favorite settings and save them as presets.
Voice FX
Heres a fun little tool that allows you to morph your own voice into wierd sounding creatures, the opposite gender, eldery people, robots, and many more options. FUN FEATURE: if you see the PASSCODE tab on way right and enter in UUDDLRLRBA it will unlock voicefx customizability so you can adjust the voice morphing any ways you want and save your own presets.
Appearence Tab
Here you can do basic stuff like select color theme for the program, also if you enter IDSPISPOPD at passcode tab it will allow you even more theme changing options!
FINAL SUMMARY
To sum it all up these headsets are very nice for the 90$ i paid. I give the comfort 4/5 stars, sound quality 5/5 starts, Surround Sound is 4/5 stars and cost isnt too bad there are a lot of more expensive headsets out there with less features. I would definatly reccomend these headsets to friends who are looking for a good gaming headset. Sorry for spelling and grammar errors lol i wrote this kind of fast.
Have fun with new headset if you decide to buy these, you wont regret it!
