Wireless hedset

10 character limit

currently there are 3 headsets that I am aware of logitech' date=' corsair and creative. I crossed the logitechs off my list when I was shopping for them as they had 40mm drivers instead of the 50 that the other 2 had however the logitech has the 'g' buttons which is cool, kind of I guess maybe? out of the latter 2 I picked the newer one the corsair. in hindsight I might have picked up the creative based on 1 fact, it says it has uncompressed wireless. compression is all about getting more information getting thru to the destination mp3's are a form of compressed files and flac, wav and alac files are the uncompressed cousins of mp3's. that said I don't detect any degredation in sound with the corsairs but I am new to headphones and I don't think my ears are trained enough. that said I really like my corsairs. they pound bass, I have big earlobes and at the right frequencies they get wiggled by the bass. compared to my audio technicas they sound veiled, muffled like a blanket is draped over the sound on the plus side the corsair responds well to equalizer manipulation, they sound good I'm getting better and better at adjusting the EQ. mic is great range is decent and does get the 10 - 14 meters as advertised. virtual 7.1? JUNK in fact I even dislike dolby headphone. to me it is like putting toilet paper rolls to your ears to get artificial echo and reverb. I've been forcing myself to use the corsair playing black ops and my audio technicas with dolby headphone on the same game. I really don't like the artificial dolby headphone or the virtual 7.1 I can detect where the sound is coming from but its not as good as getting location queues from a headphone with proper soundstage. TLDR sometimes convenience trumps fidelity. I give the corsair a thumbs up but the creative's uncompressed transmitter might be something to look at. [/quote']
