good: stereo, detachable mic
bad to me: 32 Ohm and all its disadvantage in sound
Nevertheless, it looks like a better one, comparable to steelseries, roccat, turtle beach, but they still look a bit more quality, than this one.
If you really want a headset, you can also give the beyerdynamic mmx300 a look. It is a bit "pricier"
Personally I did not want a closed headphone like the mmx, because I sometimes want to hear my surrounding. So I decided to buy the dt880, because they are semi open. Less bass, but wider soundstage. |
Yep, RoG sometimes means more, but its about 25% cheaper than my Sennheiser PC350 headset and cheaper too than my Logitech G35, its got very good reviews.
When you go to the dedicated PC tech forums they will inevitably suggest dedicated open headphones, and I have a set of those too for appropriate music and movie listening on my AV gear, but I don't think that gear is what your every day PC gamer needs or wants, especially if you add on a clip on mic and associated twin cables running from your head to the PC, we often like a boom mic for teamplay that can be swung up when needed.
You sound like a high end sound purist Stublerone and I can be too, I know where you are coming from
I went through two sets of 5.1 Medusa sets, both snapped at hinge join, compared to the Logi G35 and Senneiiser PC 350, they are poor quality build and sound nowhere near so good ... because i go through so many headsets I'd really like to try the Asus Vulcan, RoG or not
The reviews are not so bad for the price IMHO.
Nothings perfect though.
