2015-01-14
our coverage is brought to you by a two-time case of the Year winner fantex the always incredible Corsair and NCIX by now everyone should be aware of Blue Microphones many youtubers use them for voiceovers and they have established the reputation for reliable USB desktop mics that also look freakin cool well blue now is also in the headphone business and we get a chance to try out their multi headphone from the looks of it they are continuing with that retro / industrial / slightly futuristic design they are not skipping out on metal parts let me tell you that and this thing feels like a tank seriously it's like it's been taken out of the Army or something so at the top you have this wheel to adjust the resistance of the joints and the form is rather unconventional and putting them on I did feel quite a bit of pressure settling in regardless of how loose I said the joints resistance the foam padding both on the headband and the ear cups is very thick there's no chance of sound leak at all and isolation is excellent the cool thing with these is they have a built-in amplifier so regardless of the source you can pick out the detail and usually better lower frequencies for extra body in the sound the amp has 12 hours of runtime of course once that's done you can still use the headphones just just won't power on the amp you get three analog audio modes so passive active and enhanced base allowing users to tune the sound signature on the fly based on your music genre and there's also the microUSB port for charging the amp and from what we heard the Mafia delivered a detailed high end with just okay bass and we weren't totally blown away at the sound quality but we should be getting a review sample to test them in our controlled environment so make sure you're subscribed to be notified when that review comes out we appreciate you watching our CES coverage and we'll see you in the next one
