The GAMDIAS HEPHAESTUS
On first inspection, glossy plastic is recipe for the day here, mirrored with the quality grey leather padding the aesthetics work surprisingly well. The heatsinks at the sides add an almost jet engine appeal without looking overstated.
Open mic
The HEPHAESTUS unfortunately is non modular, which means the boom microphone and cables are not removable/replaceable. Though the construction seems fairly robust and should make for a decent show piece at your gaming station.
Folded flat
This headset can fold flat, if that helps you in anyway, but at least shows that it has the movement needed to fit your head. Around the inside of the headband is some thick soft padding to help keep things comfortable.
Thick padding and aluminium cooling
Plenty of padding on the earcups and the aluminium meat grinder peaks out at the sides. Just behind the earpad you can spy little vibration pads that encircle the ear pad from behind. These are what powers the Blast Source Indicator.
Extra vents for cooling are found on each side over the heatsinks.
On each side we find the GAMDIAS logo that lights up when powered up.
The embossed headband with some box art.
The adjustable strap.
The boom microphone.
Plenty of room for your ears to fit in, Blues Man has no problem.
