First and foremost, a crystal clear, high-resolution sound with perfect spatiality, allowing you to precisely locate even the quietest sound details. No opponent creeps up unnoticed and you get a clear edge over your competitors on the virtual battlefield. The closed-back design insulates against external noise interrupting the immersive environment.
The spectacular sound experience is provided by the proprietary 44mm Hi-X drivers from Austrian Audio, which are celebrated by the trade press. The Pro Gaming Headset PG16 offers the same outstanding Austrian Audio High Excursion technology used successfully in the Pro Audio models Hi-X65, Hi-X55 and Hi-X50.
From 12 Hz to 24 kHz the full audible sonic spectrum is accurately reproduced with zero-latency. As What Hi-Fi noted in their five-star review of the Austrian Audio Hi-X15 headphones (on which the PG 16 is based): there is a “clear, open presentation” and “this transparency gives them a huge advantage over rivals.”
In addition to the high-quality gaming sonics, the PG16 is built for the task: the robust metal construction of the headband and hinges; the ergonomic design and the high-quality workmanship ensure maximum stability and extremely long durability. The soft, replaceable, ear pads made of special "slow retention" memory foam and the low weight of just 265g offer optimal comfort, and long, fatigue-free gaming sessions without head pressure or heaviness.
The closed design offers exceptionally good insulation which effectively eliminates ambient noise, allowing you to concentrate on the game without distraction. Likewise, the insulation prevents sound escaping out into the environment: no-one is disturbed no matter the volume, time or place. In addition, the headset can be folded up in a few simple steps, conveniently stowed away and safely transported to the next event with the supplied quality carry bag.
For crystal clear comms in voice chat the PG16 is equipped with a pro-grade boom microphone, which transmits your voice to the team without cut-outs, choppiness, or muffling. If you don't want to be heard by your teammates, you can immediately mute the microphone using the Lift to Mute mechanism.
Optionally, you can use the included Spatial Sound Card software from New Audio Technology for a dynamic 7.1 surround sound, for an enhanced gaming experience and competitive advantage.
Whether you are playing on PC, Mac, PS4, PS5 or Xbox, with the 1.4m long connection cable equipped with a 3.5mm TRRS (Tip Ring Ring Sleeve) jack plug you will always find the right connection to a variety of outputs. Usefully, the cable is removable and can be easily exchanged if you need a longer cable or in the rare case of a cable defect or accidental damage. Aside from gaming the PG16 is an outstanding headphone for general media and leisure listening: simply fold up the microphone and enjoy your favourite music in the highest studio quality. The PG16 offers excellent workmanship with high-quality materials and outstanding sonics at an unbeatable price-performance ratio.
Designed and developed in Austria.
