Logitech has just announced the Cordless Vantage Headset that targets PS3 gamers, bringing Bluetooth connectivity to your gaming sessions so that you don’t have to be tied down by pesky wires. The headset boasts native PS3 support, featuring large-diameter audio drivers as well as advanced noise-filtering circuitry that delivers premium audio and excellent sound playback. This ambidextrous behind-the-head design allows you to wear the earpiece on either ear, while the adjustable noise canceling microphone gets rid of unwanted background noise. Rechargeable batteries ensure more than 12 hours of wireless gameplay and can be recharged using the provided adapter. The Logitech Cordless Vantage Headset will be released in US and Europe this November and December respectively for $79.99 apiece.
Bose technology makes the difference
Most active noise reduction headsets require large earcups and considerable headband force to muffle aircraft noise. Through 25 years of research Bose has developed a better solution-TriPort headset technology. This patented innovation enables a smaller, more comfortable headset that delivers full-spectrum noise reduction.
Acoustic Noise Cancelling headset technology contributes to this high level of noise reduction. It monitors sound at the ear, identifies unwanted noise and creates an out-of-phase signal to reduce it. Our active equalization circuitry also delivers clean, full sound that improves the intelligibility of radio and intercom audio. In fact, U.S. Air Force tests with Bose headsets achieved intelligibility scores of 95% at 115db compared to 80% for conventional headsets.
At Bose, a comfortable fit is mission critical
Whether you're a general aviator or helicopter pilot, comfort counts. That's why Bose designed the Headset X with 50% less clamping force than most active noise reduction headsets. The solid magnesium headband is extremely lightweight yet durable. The sheepskin cushion eliminates hot spots, and soft, padded ear cushions provide an effective seal-even over glasses. The result is superior noise reduction in a comfortable headset that weighs only 12 ounces.
Focus on your flight, not your headset controls
The redesigned control module is 30% smaller than the previous version and even easier to use. Its slim design puts all functions-including dual thumbwheel volume controls-within easy reach. And improved boom microphone design enables smoother, more precise adjustments.
Features:
- TriPort Headset Technology: Utilizes three small ports in the earcups to produce a rich audio performance. Enjoy clearer communications.
