CONCLUSION

   Normally i test gaming headsets with several online games like Planetside 2, World Of Tanks and HAWKEN but since we received GRID2 and StarCraft II Heart Of The Swarm last week (yeap we did fall behind on the StarCraft II front) we used these two titles instead along with Metro Last Light to test the SHOCK Dynamite Orange Gaming Headset for a total of 5 days. Results were quite mixed as expected from a mid-end gaming headset so although it produced a good amount of bass (could be better had Tt eSPORTS used larger drivers but for 40mm ones it was quite good) and clear mids i can't say the same about highs since they felt just way too weak. The noise cancelling bi-directional microphone also worked quite well when we used it with Skype but we've used other higher quality (and far more expensive) headsets in the past that offered way better audio clarity for the other end. One of the strong points of the SHOCK Dynamite Orange is its weight and earpads since these two allowed us to use it continuously for many hours without neck or ear pain. The current color availability (above picture) is also a plus and certainly not something we see from other manufacturers (the green version is also compatible with consoles). 

   Price matters a lot when we test headsets and with a current retail price tag set at USD50.93 inside the USA (Purchase Directly from Amazon.com) and at around 35Euros inside the EU (Purchase Directly from Amazon.co.uk) the SHOCK Dynamite Orange Gaming Headset by Tt eSPORTS is a real bargain. Certainly its specifications and features sheets are not the best out there and in the end you are getting a stereo headset but since i do prefer stereo ones than virtual surround ones (very few exceptions apply) i don't consider that as something bad. On the other hand my favorite gaming headsets are all "true" 5.1 ones that cost 4 or more times over and thus belong in an entirely different category. That being said Tt eSPORTS has once again designed and manufactured a gaming headset that combines good performance with a very appealing price tag and that's why we are giving it our Golden Award.
