Abstract: Yes, another gaming headset review. Like I said previously, I am on the hunt for the best gaming headset - for my tastes anyways. Thus far, the RIG Flex LX had the best sound, the RIG 500E had the best comfort, and the Striker Pro Zx had the best all-arou...

Great 5.1 to 7.1 surround simulation; fairly easy to set up; comfortable and lightweight headset; wireless audio transmission; completely adjustable/removable boom mic; customizable volume levels; optical in/out; can work with any headphones
Pricey, not exactly fully wireless, some items sold separately, no direct solution for multiple console connections
While a bit pricey, the Astro A40 Wireless System is easily one of the best virtual surround-sound gaming headset systems we've ever tested.
