Customer Review

I had today after 5 months using this headset return again. Overall I was reasonably happy with the headset, however, had today a loose connection (cable break?) Right at the base of the left ear. This gave me the right to no longer sound. But there were also other interference points on the headset generally.
1. the volume I had to permanently settle down to about 25% of my Windows Sound and could make all games / programs only at about 10% volume in the menu, otherwise I would now deaf. You mean the whole thing is completely over regulated or something. The controller on the headset itself, I had all at level 4 of the 10th

2. The controller on the headset: On the headset cable is a volume control where you can set the 3 types of speakers + vibration intensity. However, the thing is pretty annoying pretty Globig and without any possibility of the holder. I had my cable coming from the right front of the body continuously to the head. Here my right arm all the time was virtually on the regulator. Adjustments of the volume control were therefore the rule.

3. noise: As soon as one turns the headset (yes you have to by a toggle switch, located on the control on the cable, switch), it roars in my ear. Annoying if you have placed the headset and just not a sound running (eg rest in TeamSpeak, moody silence in the movie, ...).

4. exterior noise: The headset felt more volume to the outside as the carrier. I got to listen to me from my girlfriend that I should do this thing quietly often enough. However, they sat about 5m from front of the TV.

Apart from the criticisms, I was quite happy with the sound quality. The micro also worked as it should (mild to moderate, however, this noise) and headaches during long sessions were not an issue.

Conclusion:
I would not buy it again, but would arrange myself so that when I would now not get the loose connection. In retrospect, I am also very disappointed with the brand, as I expected (in my world) quite a good and high quality demanding company behind the Medusa series.
