2014-01-13
Yurika noxious 2014 coverage is brought to you by and say XCOM technology connect ok so we are here in sanitizer at CES 2014 you have a massive boot set up showcasing all different types of gaming products had audiophile headphones rates there's some really exclusive things behind behind this wall that we'll show you later but I know a lot of you guys are interested in the gaming sphere and what's on Heiser can offer in that so I'm here with Christian he's the director of their gaming mind for headphones they've just announced their game 1 and game 0 but first let's take a look at the game one it's they do follow the same conventional design as with the rest of the Sennheiser headphones it is you know looks like it's same type of construction but what have you changed what's different about this the game one versus say the PC 360 and PC 350 yeah basically for the PC for the game one I'm sorry yeah you basically see first of all that's that's a design update we have done on the product so I stare at Lee it's white it's it's white it has a different touch of the surface so it feels actually much more sturdy and nice than the predecessors yeah technically we haven't changed so much so you can still see there's there's a microphone mute integrated in the microphone boom so you move it up and you mute the microphone where's the volume control on the on the right ear cup to control the volume and it's so much easier to find that compared to having a volume control oh yeah absolutely it's it's still an open design it as a fantastic we're in Concord so you can play for hours but you would use that mainly in a situation where it's a little more quiet around you because again it's an open design and that means you can hear all the noise that is surrounding you so but there's no noise that's there's so many advantages of using an open design I I myself am a huge fan sanitizer I use an open design headset for movies and gaming and music but aside from I so it does leap audio you can still hear anything from your surroundings but what are the advantages of an open design for gaming an open design for game is you don't first of all you don't feel that isolated right so you're still you still hear what is going on around you so again that is something would we would recommend for us somebody playing mostly at home right Ella gives gives a very natural sound so as you may have seen on our products we don't have so much pronunciation on the on the base yeah we know that also from some studies that having too much base will just disturb the experience of the game in the term that you don't hear all the details anymore and as more professional gamer you of course need to you are you know you rely on all the details to to win your game and that is something that we that we really pursue in these products so the base is not over pronounce but it really goes very deep so you have to write all your material you can really feel this shaking so you tonal properties this gaming headset is tuned in for not too much place for just enough and great pyramids and I travel nice and crispy so you can hear basically so basically we also tune the frequency response in a way that you can specifically here where sounds come from so that is that is specifically tuned for the gamers because that is what you rely on in the game when you want to hear right absolutely yeah so this damn one is the game one right if you are a gamer who is more likely to travel to friends or to competitions we have the game 0 that's a closed acoustic design so you see this like a leatherette yet which is really really comfortable and it's very nice feeling it's extremely soft with memory foam underneath with two different heights that basically has to make sure that the headset is sealing sealing very well off around your ear I will come to that later and basically it also folds together so you can collapse it it comes with a case so you can easily transport it to wherever you go to to play your games again it's a closed design one advantage is of course that it shuts you off from the environment so you don't hear all the noise around it you can try it out later but you always have to make sure that it really seals well around the year because for two reasons one is that otherwise you lose the noise canceling effect the second is that you lose the bass so the bass performance is very much depending on how well this is sealing around sorry isolation not noise cancelling no no it's not active it's just a passive one but it's very good so you can try it outlines the ICU but again you have to make sure that it really seals around your year for the noise isolation but also for the bass performing yeah and again based performance is not access I would say but it's really going very deep down so with the right audio material that's really and again same features you have muting of the microphone with the boom so that is something very intuitive to do and on the right ear cup you have the volume control to adjust the volume level what's the price point for game zero and game one game one is at 229 US dollar sorry 249 u.s. talaga game game zero is at 279 u.s. so you're giving the users so with these headsets I feel like you know it's much more it is on the aesthetic of change you're targeting difference and the price difference between the other Tesla headsets with the earlier models yeah is still sort of on par so very competitive so depending on what you kind of feel like it if you do like the white version you could go with that or you could go with the slightly I guess the previous models if you want that more black and Gray's aesthetic right okay so thanks Chris now we're gonna go ahead check out something very interesting behind this wall so let's go take a look
