Acoustics
Headphone
Unlike many other manufacturers, Tesoro decided to use large 50 mm
drivers, which means the earcups are quite big overall. The fact, that it's big
and features soft bolster helps with wearing comfort. This headset is even
comfortable if you wear glasses or 3D goggles. The Kuven fits easily in your bag
or on your desk, thanks to the use of a practical joint that allow you to rotate
the earcups by 90 degrees. After a few days of use in various fields, we can say that the sound quality is on a good level.
The sound was never unbalanced and the preset is surprisingly linear for a
gaming headset; only when maximum volume was reached, we noticed some background
noise. But listening to music, watching movies or playing games at such high
volume won't be too healthy anyway.
The virtual surround 7.1 performs very well, the audio experience will involve you and it is pretty cool
especially in Battlefield 4.
Microphone
The microphone is
about average. The noise cancellation works well but we believe that it is positioned too far away from your mouth. Despite being flexible and without memory effect, the arm where
it's located is still too far away from your mouth. The headphones come with a handy
integrated remote control, with which you can adjust the sound volume by a micro wheel and the microphone thanks to a slider. On the remote
you'll also find the engraved manufacturer logo.
