what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at Sony's brand new wireless gaming headset this is for the PlayStation 3 and it's called the pulse as well as the Elite Edition headset this has a couple of special features including something called base impact which is a configurable base switch which allows you to move between whatever you feel comfortable with in terms of base levels it's also got 7.1 virtual surround sound it's got a noise cancelling microphone and on-screen headset updates because you have that two-way wireless Bluetooth communication but you don't need to use it wirelessly this version here is also going to function with a 3.5 millimeter audio jack because it does come with a cable and can be used in a wired manner so you can use it with your smartphone or in the case that they've shown on the back of the box your PlayStation Vita pretty much anything that supports the 3.5 millimeter standard so taking a look inside the box the first thing you'll notice is the cable that I just talked about so you can get up and running in a wired fashion if you choose to you've also got some paperwork from Sony I won't bore you with that let's get straight into it and take a closer look at the actual headphones but there is actually one more item in the box besides the headphones that I should mention real quick and that is your wireless transmitter this will need to be plugged in to the front of your ps3 console although it'll work with any of them whether you're using a Fat Boy a slim or the new super slim that I recently unboxed if you haven't seen that video yet you might want to check out my channel so you can see that particular unboxing so next let's take a look at the main attraction in this particular video which is of course the new pulse gaming headset wireless stereo gaming headset although it does still have that virtual surround sound that I mentioned earlier the first thing you'll notice is you've got a nice amount of padding here they're using a synthetic material not getting real leather here although most headphones don't ship with that but there is a significant amount of padding that should make these comfortable for extended use you'll see here the first switch that we're going to mention is the sound - voice switch which is of course going to balance the difference between game sound and chat sound so that's a pretty cool way to configure that particular element you've also got a power on/off switch not only does it have an LED to let you know whether the headset is on or off but it so gives you an audible beep so if the headset is on your head you don't have to take it off to know whether or not you've turned it on or off you've got the VSS on/off switch the SS of course is the virtual surround sound on the bottom of the other ear Cup you're going to find your 3.5 millimeter connector as well as the USB port to charge up the headset for wireless use you've got a mic mute button in order to of course mute the mic here's a closer look at that VSS on/off which is very similar to the mute switch you're also going to have on the other side of that year cup you're going to have volume which is using a slider as well you've got minimum and maximum once again major configuration available right on the actual headset which is a major major plus here's a closer look at the base impact slider that I talked about earlier in this video and the reason that's cool is because you don't just have like a couple of different levels of base response instead you've got this massive slider so you can really fine-tune it to suit your particular gaming style or whatever it is you're into even if it's music now in and around the headphones you're going to notice some really nice materials and use here you've got some metallic features in fact including that spun look that I just showed you you have a split headband as well which should help with long gaming sessions and not getting too hot on the top of your head there's going to be a little bit more breathability and the next thing worth mentioning is if you take a closer look on the inside of the ear cup you'll see that the transducer is actually angled and I went ahead and removed the padding to give you a better idea of that that's going to help with your spacial awareness and it's going to give a better virtualization of that 7.1 surround sound that was also talked about earlier so overall a very cool looking headset if you're interested in more information pricing availability etc there's going to be a link down in the description if you enjoyed this video please remember to leave a thumbs up down below it does help out a bunch and as always thanks for watching and I'll catch you guys on the next video alright later
