Sound Effects for PC Gamers
Plantronics has announced the new GameCom 777 Surround Sound Gaming
Headset featuring Dolby Headphone technology, which allows users to play
PC games, listen to music, and watch movies with virtual 5.1 surround
sound effects. The offer comes in a plug-and-play USB sound card that
digitally processes sound for immersive audio.
Similar
to its application in high-performance home theater systems, Dolby Pro
Logic II, processes high-quality stereo (two-channel) (redundant with
above) audio into five channels of full-bandwidth surround sound.
In
addition to its surround sound capabilities, the GameCom 777 was
engineered with numerous functional and ergonomic wearing benefits.
Features include a unique 'hide-away' boom designed to tuck into the
headband and turn the headset into a pair of headphones for music and
multimedia use.
A
telescoping, noise-canceling microphone provides more accurate positioning
for voice clarity. And in-line volume and microphone mute controls provide
gamers fingertip audio and voice direction.
In
additional to multi-directional Dolby virtual surround sound, the GameCom
777 delivers rich bass for an immersive gaming experience. A one-step USB
2.0/1.1 makes connection plug and play.
Plantronics is also introducing two analog PC headsets -- the GameCom 367
and GameCom 377 PC headsets. All three GameCom headsets are built of
lightweight materials and feature specialized earpods to redistribute
pressure for maximum comfort. Each headset offers the 'hide-away' boom, a
telescoping, noise-canceling microphone, and in-line volume and microphone
mute controls. Cables are made of durable reinforced materials to
withstand frequent wear and tear and abuse by gamers.
The
complete line of new Plantronics' PC gaming headsets includes the GameCom
777 Surround Sound Gaming Headset with Dolby technology (ESP $99.99), the
GameCom 377 Open Ear Gaming Headset (ESP $49.99), and the GameCom 367
Closed-Ear Gaming Headset (ESP $39.99).
Each
GameCom headset is compatible for VoIP internet programs such as Skype,
Windows Live, and Yahoo! Messenger.
