We were pleasantly surprised by the length of cable supplied with the CM Storm Sonuz… a full 2m. Even those people with the computer some distance away will be able to use this headset.
On the left-hand side of the headset we see the cable, as well as the microphone, although this can be switched to the other side. There is a simple design to this headset with just simple CM Storm branding.
On the microphone itself there is the product name ‘Sonuz' written at the base.
The right-hand side of the headset is very similar, with the exception that the microphone is not fitted to this side so you can see the cover that fits over the microphone socket when not in use.
The headband can be adjusted in length to make sure the fit is just right.
The microphone has a good range of motion from straight up, to around 140 degrees. The microphone is slightly flexible but cannot be positioned exactly where you want … for instance, you can't get it closer than a few inches away from your mouth.
The Sonuz headset has a very simple in-line remote, giving options to alter the ‘Center volume' and turn the microphone on or off. The length of cable between the in-line remote and the headset is just right so that the remote is always within easy reach.
At the end of the cable, there are just two jacks, one is the headphone jack (green) and the other is for the microphone (pink). CM Storm haven't bothered to label these jacks individually and so you do have to look at the colour strips to work it out.
That looks like something out of Star Trek, its quite attractive though. ive still got my old microsoft headset, never really looked at an upgrade. maybe I should.
I would prefer this over the 5.1 version, I hate those headsets as they are utterly useless for music, just good for gaming.
I want a headset that is primarily good for music, first. then games.
