Introduction:
Our ability to detect sound is one of our most important senses. It helps us communicate with each other, enjoy music to relax and/or detect a possible danger in our surroundings. Sound has become even more important to us over the last few years with the advent of High Definition content. Rich dialog, car chase music, gun battles with large explosions are all added to immerse you deeper into the entertainment experience. Modern day gaming is no exception. If anything, sound is even more important to a gamer then a movie watcher. You don’t get fragged if you’re not paying attention to a sound in a movie, whereas the sound of glass breaking behind you means life or death to the gamer. Gamers need to hear every nuance to perform at the top of his/her game.
This is where top of the line headsets come into play. Tritton Audio, a leader in sound reproduction for gamers has one of the most popular gaming headsets for the console. PC gamers were yearning to use them on their gaming rig of choice. Tritton listened to those requests and is now releasing the Tritton Pro+ True 5.1 Surround headsets for PC/MAC.
Let’s see if Tritton carried over all of the features that made them so successful on the console. First, let us learn a little about Tritton.
Headquartered in San Diego California, TRITTON technology leads the way in manufacturing high-performance consumer electronics and computer peripherals. Founded in 2000, TRITTON has since evolved and transformed into a brand that is known for creating innovative emerging technologies.
“The PRO+ is something of a legend for us at MadCatz. A redesign of the classic AX PRO Headset, the PRO+ is STILL one of a select few headsets to deliver true 5.1 surround sound, thanks to eight separate driver units (four in each ear), which accurately drive front, center, rear and sub channels, just like a typical home theater setup.
The console version has been available for some time now and we’re pleased that PC and Mac owners can now join the party!”
Thanks go out to Tritton Audio for sending the Pro+ for us to review.

This is undoubtedly the best blue tooth headset I have ever owned. I love it, and you will love it for multiple reasons. http://www.jabra.com/Products/Bluetooth/JABRA_WAVE/Jabra_WAVE
1) It wont fall of your ear and it isn’t annoying. Its very ergonomic and you will forget its there, it doesn’t feel like something hanging from your ear.
2) Battery Life is amazing, better than my previous two Motorola’s
3) No one on the other end will ask for you to take them off speaker phone. Its very natural sounding.
4) The sound is crystal clear and the bud isn’t jammed inside of your ear.
5) Easy to take on and off your ear, and will not fall off when you bend over.
