Sony Wireless Headset (PS3)

Product Information

GT5: Actually disappointed in this one. You really just hear your own car and that's it. Hard to notice any other sounds. However, the music get's an isolated channel making it stand out better. I like this. Gah, too much bass from the engines. The PS3 will now perform a scan for audio input devices. Make sure your wireless headset is turned on and in pairing mode during this process. Once the scan is complete, your headset should appear as an available audio input device. We tested the Pulse with Spec Ops: The Line, Madden NFL 13 and Ghost Recon: Future Soldier and while the Pulse's virtual surround sound can't compete with true 7.1 audio, we still enjoyed the experience. Gunshots and explosions in the shooters sounded great and hits in Madden also proved thunderous.

PC Use: Works great in Windows 7. You can even tweak settings and enhancements like bass boost in the control panel. No driver installation either. Can play sound through multiple devices (headset and speakers for instance). Microphone sensitivity cannot be adjusted. The method of charging a wireless headset for the PS3 may differ depending on the specific headset model. In general, though, most wireless headsets for the PS3 come with a USB charging cable. Here’s how to charge your headset: The virtual surround is not going to blow you away. Like others have pointed out, it makes the low end sound a little thin, and some realism is lost in the process. I have a difficult time determining which I prefer, stereo or virtual surround. For sports games, I prefer stereo. For shooters, virtual surround does offer a little bit of directional recognition, so it is useful, but again, nothing impressive. Once you have successfully paired your wireless headset with your PS3, the next step is to adjust the audio settings to ensure optimal sound quality. Here are the steps to follow:This is a set of decent drivers. I'd say it sounds just like the Sony MDR-V600 but slightly less clear and tight as the MDR-V6. It's a very good, clean sound with good range and good bass response. It's not luxurious though. You audiophiles know what I mean. A: Using a headset with your PS3 offers several benefits. First, it allows you to have a more immersive gaming experience by providing high-quality audio and sound effects directly into your ears. Second, it enables you to communicate with other players during online multiplayer games, enhancing teamwork and coordination. Third, it gives you the option to chat with friends and family while gaming, adding a social aspect to your gaming sessions. Resistance 1: Works well but nothing spectacular. Feels very immersive but positional audio is not that good in this older game. Bass is decent.

I could even hear them almost too well. I had to adjust the sound/voice to about 60/40 since their voices were overpowering the in-game sound. It's a little difficult to hear yourself speak because it's like trying to talk to someone with earplugs on. You can't really tell how loud or quiet you are and you can't adjust the mic transmit volume on the fly.Audio Quality: Sound is a crucial element in gaming. Look for headsets that provide clear and immersive audio, allowing you to hear every detail of the game. Once you have selected the correct audio output setting, you will be prompted to choose the type of audio input, such as HDMI or RCA cables. Select the option that matches your setup. On to the performance itself... These headphones create a nice virtual surround sound experience (which can be toggled on and off.) This means the speakers in each ear have a very specific codec that allows you to fire off different frequencies in different directions creating a more realistic 360 degree sound image. The gaming benefit here is that not only do you get better sound than a basic TV, you can hear someone walking around you and get a really good idea of their exact location. Although they're not super bass heavy, they are nicely blended for gaming and movies. I watched Netflix, listened to some Eminem and played several hours of Call of Duty with these. I also sync'd these up with my laptop and found the same thing, incredible sound that's very well blended. Battery life is a nice long 7 hours and takes less than half that time to charge it full again. The design looks about as cool as you can get for headphones. Anyone who tells you that any pair of gaming headphones "look good" is lying and clearly has no sense of fashion whatsoever. But they have a nice sleek and modern image included some brushed gunmetal. They're comfortable with their oversized ear cushions and nice padded cushion above my head. They don't feel too heavy to me, but they're not as light as some of the others. Primary because they're wireless and the battery and mixer needs to be built into the headset themselves. The build quality feels good to me with one exception, the mic/boom is hard plastic and sort of slides in and out as needed. While it looks really cool, I could see someone snapping this off if they're not careful and tossed these with the mic out.

It’s advisable to consult the headset’s instruction manual for specific charging instructions and recommended charging times.

If available, you can also tweak additional settings such as microphone sensitivity or audio output preferences.Test your headset: To ensure that your wireless headset is working properly, test it by navigating to the Audio Device Settings on your PS3. Adjust the volume and microphone settings as needed to optimize your gaming experience. The Pulse does away with the boom mic that adorned last year's version, opting instead for a hidden mic in the left earpice. We welcomed not looking like a telemarketer while gaming and in multiplayer sessions our "buddies" reported that they had no problem hearing our trash talk. We liked
