Mad Catz Tritton ARK 100 Headset, Black

The entire display of this headset is impressive. It isn't made out of cheap plastic like a lot of headsets. It is very comfortable to wear even for many hours. The led lights look incredible. They have three different colors that they can be changed to. The only downside is that they just take up battery life if you want to leave them on, which means you'll have to switch out the triple AAA batteries more often. The sound is pretty good. They have three different modes of sound performance for you to chose from. The ear cups are very easy to slide up and down if it isn't fitting just right. The only downside I have ran into is the battery life, and the buttons on the side are very handy and impressive, but they are just hard to figure out at first and a little confusing. Other than that it is a very unique and impressive product. I was hesitant at first to buy it, because of not many reviews about it, but I decided to take a chance and I am so glad I did.

Sound quality: 3 eq modes while powered, I personally prefer the bass boost. The speaker technology is nicely implemented giving sharp highs, warm mids, and nice rumbling bass in boost mode. Without being too much bass. A real theatre sound in a stereo package. With the amp switch on you can hear a small fuzz similar to powered noise cancelling. But this is not audible during sound play. Treble boost is to much high end for me im not sure it's purpose. And optimised setting is well rounded it gives off a surround sound vibe with how balanced this setting is for hearing every detail in a game. To compare it to my Sony Golds these headphones do sound better. And the volume does get loud. With alot of sound bleed. So the person next to you will be able to hear everything. Comfort: they are slightly more heavy than my Sony Golds and fit great thanks to its adjustable ear cup slider. The soft but firm headband pad in my opinion should have been larger due to the bands size. But it gets the job done. The headset is comfortable for hours of use, but there are more comfortable sets available. Build quality: this is an all plastic headset but it feels tough, the build quality is solid and im not afraid of them ever breaking in general use. The buttons are the cheapest feeling thing on it. They are a slick glossy plastic and just feel cheap, but as long as the switch underneath is well build I shouldn't ever see any issues. Lighting: the lighting is a nice feature for Aesthetics only, they look really cool all lit up. But the instructions are vague and learning how to adjust the light settings will take a few minutes. Mic: As far as built in headset mics go this one makes me happy the sound quality is crisp and clear. And if you hold down the mute button for 2 seconds you can hear yourself talk. I'm loving this feature because I often find myself talking way to loud with other headset because I can't hear myself. It also allows me to hear how bad my background noise is and decide to mute or not for courtesy. There's a led light on the boom mic to tell you if battery is dying or if on mute.

Great sound quality, works on xbox, play station, pc, and phone good price super comfy

When I tried these on to test them in the store . They seem to be very loud and immersive . When I got them home and started using them . With the volume all the way up they were not very loud at all . They were fine for chatting . You could hear people clearly. These headphones are not very good for gaming . I expected more out of a pair of headphones that cost $80 .
