I was interviewed for this news segment.  Very little of what I said actually made it into the report. I’m the fat dude

Review on the Tritton AXPro Gaming Headset

Just is just a blurb about it rather than a full-on exhaustive review. I’ll be doing one of those a bit later, complete with photographs…

The Tritton AXPro 5.1 Surround Gaming Headset is amazing!

It sounds fantastic- the surround sound staging is accurate and immersive! I tried a few of the one that “simulate” surround just don’t stand up to discreet surround. The AXPro uses 4 speakers in each can to give you real 5.1 surround sound using a total of 8 speakers. The range of the speakers is great. Highs sound bright and crisp and lows are transmitted smooth and loud.

These things are comfortable! I can wear these for hours and not get sore ears. At first I was worried because of my initial impression from the over weight of the headset but that hasn’t been an issue.

The controls are great. I like that I can modify the many different variables this headset offers. In a later post, I’ll be discussing these and optimal settings.

In game chatting works perfectly! The mic is great, it works well and everyone I game with, says I come in loud and clear without shouting.  Since the volume of the voice chat is adjustable independently form the in-game sounds, this makes it easier to hear during loud periods of games.  You can even mute in-game sounds and just use the chat audio channel, pretty cool.

Price. I paid $159.99 with free shipping form New Egg. Considering what some of the prices for “other” surround sound headsets, I felt this was a good price and middle of the road, once I shopped around and priced comparable models.

That’s all! Right now, I’m enjoying some SOCOM Confrontation on my PS3, it sounds so much better with these headsets on!

Check back for the exhaustive review!!
