True 5.1 surround sound, External USB powered amplifier, Good directional positioning in games compared to price, Good quality microphone, Very good build quality, Microphone mute LED, Light weight
Music and movie playback sound quality, Coherency issues, Noisy amplifier section, Slightly annoying headband
The ROCCAT Kave headset design is good up to a point. The noisy amplifier, general sound quality and the headband construction is a major let down. The mechanical design is ROCCAT at its best, it is durable, light weight and easily adjustable, however,...

5.1 sound that actually works. Independent centre, surround and front speaker volume sliders. Quite comfortable
Restrictive sound stage, everything feels far closer than it should. Mid-tones sound muffled in stereo mode. Sub slider appears to do nothing. Unwieldy for travel
