Psyko 5.1 Gaming Headset Review

👤by David Mitchelson Comments 📅23-10-10
Conclusion

The Psyko 5.1 Gaming Headset certainly stands out from the crowd, it offers superior sound to the traditional gaming headset by featuring quality 5.1 surround sound. It's unlike anything currently on the market in looks and functionality.

Priced at around £200 ($300), the Psyko 5.1 Gaming Headset is surely not going to be a worthy purchase for the casual gamer. It's to the avid gamer that this headset is really focused, those who want that edge within games. This headset does primarily have gaming as the ultimate forte but movies can also be enjoyed, of course many people do watch movies as a group so this type of scenario is perhaps infrequent, but nevertheless its there to be enjoyed.



The Psyko 5.1 Gaming Headset does suffer from some negatives though. There is no rubber on the underside of the AMP, so if like me you have a desk with a shiny surface there is a potential risk it will slide off the desk and smash, especially as its very lightweight. With such a chunky exterior, the Psyko headset does leave your neck feeling tired - as though you've been balancing a ceramic water pot on your head! Those who are particularly fussy when it comes to cables are not going to like the amount of cables running from the headset, to the amp, to the computer to the power adapter. With lots of cables lying around, there is a potential for things to look quite untidy and difficult to organise - especially if the unit is only used for gaming sessions and a speaker system is used for movies and music.

Pros
+ Superb 5.1 Surround
+ Innovative and unique
+ Enriches gaming experience

Cons
- Heavier than other headsets
- Lots of cables
- Music performance lacking
