[news 28]

A news post would be great.

 

OCC has published a review on the G.SKILL Ripjaws SV710 Virtual 7.1 Headset

 

Here is a quote from the review:

Quote:

"Quality seems to be put into most of the design, but there are a few flaws. The most fatal flaw is the suspension pad. Being designed so high and not adjustable makes it uncomfortable for most people to wear these as they will want to slide down. This is a fatal flaw that potentially ruins an otherwise decent headset. If they sit right they are very comfortable, but if they slide down due to lack of contact with the suspension pad they get uncomfortable fast. While the suspension pad is designed for larger heads the ear cups are not so oversized. The audio controller can potentially reach the floor – it easily did in my case even with the chair at its maximum height. There are no clips or any other means to attach the controller to anything so it is very easy to lose it, or accidentally step on it and turn the volume up. This leads into the next issue, not necessarily a con: the maximum volume is insanely high on these headsets. Using the plus and minus buttons causes a huge jump (2% jumps in Windows volume level is like low-medium-high in real life, there is no fine adjustment). I could put ear plugs in and it was very loud at 100% -- this isn't necessarily a con as it can be nice to have the power to drown out exterior noises but would it be too much to have a setting to lower the sound levels?â€Â
