Customer Reviews:
Versatility & 8 speakers that will blow you away! By Alejandro Sosa
I found this headset after my experience with a pair of turtles beaches (DPX21) which are 5.1 (virtual, that means with only two speakers) the quality was acceptable and the virtual 5.1 was OK, but I wanted more for sound whoring in Black Op 2 and Battlefield 3. Similar headsets which are TRUE 5.1 Dolby Digital cost a lot more than this Sharkoons. Now I will break it for you:
PROS:
- Affordable for True 5.1, with 4 speakers in each side with a total of 8 speakers that can be loud as you want.
- Separate volume control for each channel (front, center, subwoofer, etc.); the volume control is great and has been improved from the previous version, you can tell the level just by the led color on your control, very intuitive when you are in match and you want to increase the volume in the rear speaker to sound whore in a S&D match in COD.
- BIG and comfortable headset. I have used this headphones for over 6 hrs straight and I didn't feel any discomfort.
- Mate finish in most of the plastic part also all the construction materials feel sturdy, they don't seem that they will be breaking any time soon.
- Universal power supply, you can practically use it in America, Europe or Asia! (it has all the necessary adapters with great quality attach system it doesn't feel cheap at all).
- The Dolby Digital receiver/decoder has it all, you can practically connect it to anything from you old VHS recorder to anything that has a digital output like TOSLINK or Coaxial.
CONS:
- The only one that I have so far is the microphone that you cannot fold when you don't need it, that is to be expected with headphones this big. This point is just being picky XD
For me, this headset is worth every dollar you pay, For the versatility or the True 5.1...I almost forgot the Bass quality in this Sharkoon is worth mentioning, it is superb very clear and loud if you wanted to be, sometimes it can be too much :)Amazing! By Karthik Kumar
I bought this after seeing the reviews for the Xtatic true headset. In addition to that headset, this one allows you to connect to a Phone/PCs with an analogue 3.5mm jack. This headset has 8 drivers (4 in each ear) and natively decodes Dolby 5.1 surround sound. I've connected it to my PS3 and i'm extremely happy with the sound quality - there is zero distortion in the bass/low frequency tones, and the mids and highs sound pretty good as well. This is perfect for gaming, and you'll start hearing small ambient sounds you never noticed before with speakers.Awesome Product! By Cristian Sena
This thing is great, the sound quality is so good that is a pleasure play games!
The mic is very very good and outstanding noise cancelation, less cables than the tritton and way better in my opinion...
