This helmet is absolutely superb. This white lacquer combined with a touch of red and black for the cushions and headband make a nice accessory. In use, it is super comfortable and easy to handle. The microphone is cut as soon as one goes up the stem up. The volume can be adjusted directly by a wheel on one side of the helmet. External noises are perfectly insulated and made sounds are very good. His cord 3m thick and textured accentuates this sense of quality. It comes in a textile case for its transportation ... or it may be its usual storage for manic;) This helmet is a credit to the brand. The only regret is the lack of USB plug which may limit its use. My teens could not plug it into the PS3 to their regret.
