Audio/Others by stefan @ 2014-01-30

The previous wireless gaming headset from Corsair has been reincarnated into a similar build but with a few enhancements like out-of-the-box Dolby Pro Logic IIx certification, a new color scheme but also reinforced hinges for extra durability. The software has been updated in order to support the latest Windows OS 8.1 .

Introduction

 

At first I would like to thank Corsair for sending a sample of their Vengeance 2100 7.1 Headset for testing and reviewing.

they are really spreading out, Headsets from Corsair, looks like good quality. Would love to hear your opinion on listening tests.

You can find samples and what to "look" for in this tremendous article (also check comment section!) of late Keith Suppe.

Hi John,

Will see what I can do when I will have more free time on my hands. I have seen though that the article you have linked is more oriented towards audiophiles and this product is a gaming headset.

What I particularly like about this headset is that you can have the same audio quality on any system you plug it into, no matter the available CODEC or sound card; the downside is that they are battery powered and even if they are quite sturdy, the batteries will fail eventually.
