INTRODUCTION

   Whether you enjoy attending LAN events, you don't want to spend much on a good 2.1/5.1/7.1 speaker setup or you just want to avoid disturbing the people next to you owning a good gaming headset is always recommended, even if you don't end up using it that much. With numerous models however out in the market by a very large number of manufacturers (both old and new) promising pretty much everything one can think of, finding the right one for your needs is far from an easy task. Products by new manufacturers are usually nowhere near as good as what we see by their older and well established competitors but ADATA's very own XPG brand with their latest Precog Hi-Res Gaming Headset aims to be among the very few exceptions in this industry.

   XTREME PERFORMANCE GEAR (XPG) was established by ADATA with the aim of providing high-performance products to gamers, esports pros, and tech enthusiasts. XPG is committed to developing products that help users achieve extreme performance; therefore, it works closely with the gaming and esports community to gather insight into the real needs of users and incorporate it into its hardware. Beyond performance, every XPG product surpasses the rigorous ADATA A+ testing methodology, which ensures the highest standards of stability and reliability. Not only do XPG products sport solid functionality and durability, but they also shine through with sheer cool designs that have earned prestigious international accolades such as Japan’s Good Design Award. XPG delivers extreme gaming experiences to help make every moment exciting.

   The Precog by XPG has two strong selling points, its dual electrostatic dynamic drivers (which produce a rather impressive frequency response of 5Hz-50KHz with 32Ohm impedance and 102dB sensitivity) and its virtual 7.1 surround sound (via an in-line USB card) which when in FPS mode offers extremely accurate positioning audio in games (always according to XPG - situational awareness as XPG likes to call it). Of course the Precog packs other interesting features as well including a detachable unidirectional microphone (20Hz-20KHz frequency response with -38dB sensitivity) complete with ENC (environmental noise cancellation), suspension like adjustable headband, earcups with 180 degrees swivel capability, USB/USB-C and 3.5mm plugs/cables, in-line audio controller and red LEDs on the exterior of both earcups.
