A GAMER HEADSET IN FANTASTIC VALUE / PRICE

When I was lent this headset, I expected a noticeable difference.

Well no, almost all the good that I said about the G35, I can say it on the G430. I will start by differences then I will add a more comprehensive commentary that goes for both helmets.

So the main differences:
- The color: like it or not that of the G430, we do not see it once it is on the head.
- The earbud pads sportswear washable fabric (for G430) instead of faux leather pads ... Aside from the rare cases in which the tissue could generate redness, there is no big difference in terms of comfort even though I prefer, perhaps not always, the G35.
- No red LED indicates that the microphone was cut.
- None of the buttons on the left ear. One may regret the absence of a switch to enable or disable the Dolby and the volume control and mute function, be deported on the cable. As for the disappearance of 3 configurable buttons of the left atrium, it is for each player to see if it considers it serious or not.
- The cable does more than 2m against 3 for the G35.
- The G430 has a headphone output and microphone with a USB adapter while the G35 has a headphone jack and micro USB. Rather more for the G430.
- Gadgets present on the G35 have disappeared on the G430: the opportunity to voice morphing. It was funny 2 minutes after we quickly made enemies. Gadget you will not regret.
- The G430 weighs 299g against 399g for the G35. This decrease is linked to the disappearance of the keys on the left ear but also the fact that treatment is made 7.1 in the cable for the G430, the atria to the G35.

Listening: the G35 is slightly better in terms of insulation and bass. For music listening, the G35 is less evil fate as the G430 but these are headphones for Gamers, no music headsets.

Conclusion: We are in the presence of very close helmets in quality but not in price. I gave 4 * in the G35, I give 5 * to G430 and recommends the purchase of the latter rather than the G35: the difference in quality does not justify in my opinion, the price difference and the G430 seems to me a more relevant purchase.
5 * These take account of course the fantastic price / quality ratio. There are higher helmets but the price is not the same. It would be illusory to think to get a near-perfect helmet for just 80 euros. By cons, for people like me who are not wealthy, it helps to have a good time without spending hundreds of dollars. For those who do not find useful spatialization, the Logitech Gaming Headset G230 Micro Black is a cheaper alternative: apart from the lack of spatial, performance is exactly the same.

* Use "Gamer"
- In the audio level, the headset gives very good results in this use. This is due to three main points:
It is a closed headphone that provides good insulation.
Laccentuation end of the spectrum is well suited THIS TYPE Of Use.
Finally, although in reality the headset is stereo base, Dolby processing of this signal provides excellent spatial and immersion in supported games. For compatibility, jentends quun stereo game will be rendered in stereo, Battlefield Bad Company 2 Battlefield 4 5.1 while 7.1 rendering of a benefit. This allows you dentendre spatialization that you may not see on the screen and located on the sides or back (for example, and depending on the game, footsteps, sirens etc.). Beware though, it is a stereo signal converted into 7.1 and there is little doubt that whatever the quality of this transformation, it is obvious that the spatial is not perfect. In some games, we must not close our eyes and we feel quite artificiality.
Finally, after washing used, difficult to replay the game without the helmet: the sounds, music and other dishes seem so
- At the micro level, this is excellent. The voice is very clear and sent through filters, ambient noise are properly disposed. We would add that the microphone is of sufficient length to be used without problems, which is not the case on all helmets.

* Use video:
Laccentuation end of the spectrum makes watching movies a pleasure of Share. For cons, the dialogues are far behind and on more focused dialogues films, it's not really on top.

* Audio Usage:
This is where the helmet is the least comfortable. Many serious but lacking in details, a medium too recessed, sometimes painful acute (it feels like a tug). In short, the prominence of the bass and treble alters the fidelity rendering. All sounds dry and hollow. If we can improve the rendering with léqualiseur Logitech software, it nen remains that the lack of natural and dampleur, the music seeming compacted. In short, without the disaster quon was feared, lusage this headset to use music will only be for lack of musical use headphones.

* Ergonomics:
As for comfort, the headset is quite comfortable to wear and do not even bother after several hours.

* Construction:
This helmet is a bit cheap, with materials that leave to fear problems lusage. I havent enough perspective to is formal on this point, but I recommend to those interested in this helmet to research the net before proceeding to purchase.

* Conclusion:
Despite some flaws, a very good helmet Gamer / video, the audio results are not at the top but allow music to postpone buying a helmet.
