THE LS-30

LucidSound has designed a nice looking, mid-sized headset (as usual we placed it right next to the compact REVO Wireless by Jabra) which weighs a total of 355g and is made out of hard plastic and aluminum.

There are two plastic discs with the company logo on the exterior of both earcups. These are not just for show since the outside rings can be used to control the volume (left) and the chat volume (right) while pressing the logo at the center mutes audio (left) and the microphone (right).

Via the equalizer button located on the base of the left earcup you can switch between the 3 available presets (Normal, Bass Boost, and Treble Boost).

The boom microphone port is placed at the base of the right earcup right next to the 3.5mm port, micro USB port, power on/off button and the activity LED.

Right and left markings are placed on the interior just over both earcups.

The thick padded memory foam cushions may not be the largest ones around but are very comfortable.

Both earcups fold partially to allow for easier storage.

Thanks to the stitched padding of the headband the headset looks a lot more elegant (almost like a luxury item).

The headband extends up to 35mm on each side (70mm total) via 10 increments (not visible ones).

Instead of using a retractable microphone LucidSound went with a removable boom one which is very flexible and has their logo at the front right beneath an on/off (mute) LED.

Typically the company name is printed on the exterior of the headband.

The USB dongle/transmitter (base station) features a nice activity/pairing LED at its center.

Size-wise the base station is just slightly larger than your average USB flash drive.

An optical audio input is placed on the right side of the dongle (this is used to connect your Xbox 360+/One+ audio output with the dongle).
