Thank you for this Review! I wanted to buy the Stereo Headset, and it was very hard to compare both Wireless and Stereo. Your Review gave me the confirmation to choose the Wirless, because of the Tuning. I will use that Tuning Video. Great Channel anyway!

Excellent review 👌 I got the turtle beach gen 2 max for Xbox, but I wanted to get a second headset just for the heck of it (because I like different sound profiles)… So I got the RIG 800 Pro HX and love how loud it gets, but the mic makes you sound like your talking on a 15 year old cell phone… lol Then the mic starting having issues with the mic monitoring, making me sound like a robot when hearing my own voice. So I’m returning those to FoulMart tomorrow. 🙄 Might try these since they’re so cheap. Seems like quality control with a lot of tech these days is out the window 🤨

It’s good that they maintained quality in this wired version. I have however seen a disturbing trend in that direct connect wireless Xbox headsets by different brands don’t have a 3.5 mm jack why is that? I haven’t found an answer? Removing a 3.5 on gaming headsets reduces flexibility of use of a otherwise quality product, I like the wireless version of this headset but dislike they don’t have 3.5 mm so if I want a 3.5 mm I have get this one and lose wirelessness ? Seems a little crazy

Just got this headset and I'm very impressed. Sure there are better, more expensive ones out there but for the money its great. I got Dolby Atmos from the XBOX store and it sounds incredible. You can create custom EQ but I just use performance mode for directional sound. You need to increase the main volume in the XBOX sound menu as its set to 50% by default and the chat/sound effects balance to your taste then just toggle the volume with the ear cup while in game. Its also feels sturdy and comfy Happy gaming!

Thanks for the recommendation, I will get mine tonight. Dolby atmos is a huuuuge add on. Headsets with Dolby atmos are more expensive and I don't care about the headset being wired, actually will work perfectly for my work at home too

😍I had watched many review so I decided to buy this headset. I was a bit hesitant, but now that is arrived I am very positive about it. First its heavy you gonna feel it, but also comfortable at the same time?! Its mostly plastic but the structure very solid, no cracking or loose parts. I wish I could wear around my neck but I am too big. Never mind. The most worried I was about sound: everywhere I watched a review they said its bass heavy, so my first thing was to customize the EQ. The sound blow me away! Before I had a 10 dollar earplug so its a big upgrade! I tried on Iphone was listening to songs and very good quality. I say its a 8.5/10 very satisfied with it!

I own the wireless version and I really don't like them too much. I don't know if I have a particularly bulbous head or what, but after about an hour it becomes really painful at the crown of my head. Audio wise, I think it's fine, even good for racing games but not so much for competitive fps. And I wish it had a detachable mic. I will praise the ease of use though. Charge it up and press the connect button and the Xbox recognizes it instantly, but I'm getting off topic.

I'm pretty sure that the microphone feedback is an issue with the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 and G15 laptops, not the headphones. I have the G15 and have feedback with my sennheiser headphones. I bought a soundblaster G3 usb amp and plug my headset into that instead, completely fixes the problem.

Hi, is the custom eq from dolby atmos you use here good with other headsets and headphones, I use steelseries and astro headset. It would be amazing if in the near future you make a video of best custom eqs for dolby atmos, greetings from mexico and awesome reviews, keep it up cheers

@GadgetryTech 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks. Custom EQ tuning is fairly time consuming but I would not use one tune on a different model. Depending on the sound signature it may help, but there is certainly room for more improvement. I also tune by ear, so what I like may not be what everyone likes. It's certainly a good starting point though! I hope to have more tuning videos down the road as time permits.

Not for the audio quality.. but mainly because I thought I’d be able to tune them with the accessories app and they’re not supported. Also the biggest issue is the top band pushing on my head. I have a large head, but still.. my cheaper headset I use don’t sound that much different and they’re super comfortable. Also I keep my mic threshold in game to 3.16 so my party doesn’t hear any back ground noise.. but when I talked with these the mic notification didn’t come up unless I was really loud. And I don’t want to change my threshold,.. anyway.. sending them back. Wish I seen this review two days ago lol

Yeah the game setting has way too much bass because of how the headset is tuned from Microsoft. The default sound is too muddy which kills clarity. I would tune a little more than what I suggest but that’s a good start. If you think too much mid bass is missing just raise it back up a little. I haven’t tuned it in a while but I measured it and the 125 to 250hz bass is way too high. Low bass is fine/slightly lacking.

I was really hoping a firmware update would fix that and the sound just a little bit more. It's definitely not bad for $100 considering how much it can do and how well it's made though.

Mic monitoring works on mine but the mic is waaaay too sensitive,no matter what settings you use... You can hear everything around. People complain they can hear me bashing buttons, people in the kitchen etc

@@StickyGeko that’s interesting. My mic muting option works great but mic monitoring is useless on my headset. I had my friend in chat confirm that there is no background noise but my family tells me I’m yelling. SMH.

Did you check volume adjustment on ear cup and on controller/PC? You need to make sure both are turned up.

Do these have separate volume controls for game volume vs chat volume? (Sorry if that was obvious in your review, but I missed it)

Without detachable wire this is trash.It’s a must to have detachable so if ever the wire messes up you could just buy a new wire instead of a whole new headset
