Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
When it's time to game, you need all the performance you can get out of your headset. The Altec Lansing AHS-602 Gaming Headset is ready to deliver that performance. With Altec Lansing's SRS 3-D audio technology -- an audio enhancement technology that provides a realistic and spacious listening experience -- this headset will thrust you directly into the middle of the action. This award-winning technology retrieves the spatial information from surround recordings and restores the original "three dimensional" sound field. High-performance 40 millimeter neodymium drivers deliver a wide frequency response and bass that you can really feel, and the set's closed ear-cup headphone design dramatically improves sound clarity while minimizing ambient noise. With this headset, games and movies will never sound better.

The AHS602 also features a noise-rejecting microphone that minimizes background noise while you're speaking, and a convenient multi-function controller to regulate volume, surround effect, and microphone volume. These functions give you maximum control over your communication and enhance your gaming experience.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad design, bad headset., December 27, 2005

By	Matthew M. Gilman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Purchased my set from Bestbuy. Also bought the protection plan for them. I've currently replaced these headphones 3 times.

The first two times the microphone died. I think the headset has a problem with moving the boom mic up and down.

Third time the speakers blew at the high range. In order to use the surround sound function of this headseat, you have put a AAA battery in them. This will allow you to activate surround sound with a switch. The power this puts to the headphones is too much for them to handle.

For gaming, this isn't the set you should get.
