INTRODUCTION

   Between the release of the latest GeForce GTX980/970 cards which currently offer the best price/performance ratio and several price drops announced by NVIDIA for their previous generation cards I’m pretty certain that most of you will be thinking about a graphics card upgrade which will allow you to better experience all the latest and upcoming game titles. Well needless to say but aside good graphics cards you also need the proper gaming peripherals to further enrich your experience and what's more important than a gaming headset if you're not living alone? Now I've said it many times in the past that we always like to know what it is that we're giving away with every single one of our giveaways and so since the only prize we've yet to get our hands on included in our last giveaway with our good friends from Tt eSPORTS is their latest VERTO gaming headset the time has come for us to get close and personal with it.

   The VERTO gaming headset is yet another stereo model which makes use of two 40mm neodymium magnet drivers that feature a frequency response of 10Hz-22KHz, 98dB sensitivity (@1KHz) and 32Ohm impedance. A flexible flip-down Omni-directional noise cancelling microphone with a frequency response of 300Hz-10KHz, -35dB (+-3dB) sensitivity and 2.2KOhm impedance is also available. Now although the specifications of the VERTO are quite good and certainly above many other stereo headsets we've gotten our hands onto my only concern is the size of the drivers since in most cases 40mm ones haven't been able to compete with their larger 50mm brothers especially in terms of bass levels. Of course there have been some exceptions to that rule and as always the only way to be certain is to test a headset so let's move forward with our review of the VERTO gaming headset by Tt eSPORTS.
