Cooler Master has been on a roll with their CM Storm line of products. Designed in partnership with enthusiasts and pro gamers the CM Storm Sirus 5.1 Gaming Headset promises to set a high bar for true 5.1 positioning. Featuring an integrated uni-directional microphone and both USB and analog compatibility the Sirus headset should fit comfortably into any gaming setup.
Today we’re looking at a straight forward, simple mouse from Speedlink. It’s called the Snappy and just by looking at it you can see why, but looks alone won’t suffice. Let’s see how good it really is.
More and more companies are coming to market with high end gaming headsets that are squarely aimed at the enthusiast crowd. Most of these headsets come with a premium price tag and lack the sound quality to be a truly great product. Does the Cooler Master Storm Sirus 5.1 Headset fall into this category or do they break the mold? Looks like you are going to have to read on to see if they hit the mark or fell flat.
The sound quality from the Cooler Master Storm Sirus 5.1 gaming headset is impressive; providing solid bass reproduction, while the other channels are clear and crisp. Using the control pod, the sound quality can be adjusted to meet any need. In addition, the microphone is easily able to pick up your voice to allow for clear voice chat while gaming.
Highly detailed audio reproduction, 5.1 Channel Surround Sound, 500RMS of raw audio power, THX Certification, Dolby Digital/DTS decoding and 6 audio inputs are what make Logitech's latest flagship the Z906 5.1 Surround Speaker System a worthy successor to their award winning Z-5500 surround system.
Let's start off with me admitting that before I had started this review, I had never heard of Mionix. As I was offered the mouse for review, I did my usual bit and started checking out their products, website and various other user reviews and thoughts. I looked at their website for the NAOS 5000 and thought it looked plain and wrote it off as a mouse that would be mediocre at best. Oh, how wrong I was.
Cooler Master sent over a pre-production sample of their new CM Storm Sirus 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset for evaluation recently. This wired headset certainly has a lot of promise, with eight speakers (four per side), a built-in microphone, optional ear padding, a powered desktop control panel and the option to plug directly into your sound card. More importantly, at least for me, is that the headset features over-the-ear cups. I find these types of headsets much more comfortable than on-the-ear cans which tend to cause me discomfort after a short while.
APH Networks is a "dedicated team of people passionate for technology responsible for... writing the reviews or reports, updating the news section, [and] administrating the technical side of the site". For the most part, we are hard at work, producing quality articles for readers and maintaining the site, just like how our Editor-in-Chief, Jonathan, claims "he does not like playing [video] games" because he needs to pays the bills. However, at times, we get stressed out from so much work we do here at APH Networks, that distraction is irresistible. Sometimes, it gets so out of hand, that our hardware testing sessions turn into APH LAN parties. These testing sessions and LAN parties are filled with STFUs (Shut the fridge up, because we don't want the dessert to rot), WTFITS (Why's the fudge in the storage, because something in the fridge did go wrong, and thus, the fudge would rot), and other such words that go through our brains, but do not actually come out of our mouths -- the APH staff does, in fact, get work done by the end of the day. Not only do we review mice and keyboards, but motherboards, chassis, and a variety of other products. Heck, we started to review games not too long ago. However, there was always one thing that seemed to be somewhat outdated at our audio testing lab, and that is none other than gaming headsets, such as the Cooler Master Storm Sirus we're taking a look at today. The Storm Sirus is a headset claimed to be designed for gaming enthusiasts and audiophiles alike. Is this the headset that will take both gaming and audio to the next level? As far as audio quality is concerned in regards to how each user defines it, you will have to experience it for yourself. But if you don't have that luxury, there is always one website you can trust, and that would be APH Networks.
If your job description demands from you to spend countless hours in front of your computer screen typing or if you are an professional gamer then the 7G Mechanical Keyboard by SteelSeries with its superior build quality and comfortable handrest is certain to make things a lot easier for you.
Today we're looking at the Tt eSPORTS MEKA Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. "Challenge is the game" is their motto and challenge, they do. Upon receiving the keyboard, I was highly impressed with the box art and style. It was a sign of things to come. The keyboard itself is quite heavy for its size - being that it's mechanical would help its weight. The MEKA comes with a braided cable which helps it not only in looks, but practicality - the cable is similar thickness to the Logitech G35 headset's braided cable (as an example). It's even described as "military grade".
