THE F.R.E.Q.5

As you can see the F.R.E.Q.5 is a medium sized headset with black and gold as its main color scheme. Appearances aside the headset features very high quality 50mm large drivers coupled with N38 grade Neodymium magnets (frequency response is 20Hz to 20,000Hz).

The Cyborg logo is placed on the outside of both earcups.

On the front of the left earcup we see the EQ (equalizer) button which allows you to switch on-the-fly between the 3 pre-configured settings (Gaming, Music and Chat).

Right beneath the EQ button we see the microphone mute button which when used turns on the red LED found on the microphone.

The microphone socket is also placed at the left earcup and as you can see is covered with a plastic tap.

To install the microphone you just need to remove the cover and plug it in.

The noise cancelling microphone itself is quite large and at the tip it has the Cyborg name along with a mute LED.

The microphone is also very flexible (even more than the ones used by SteelSeries).

The company name is also placed ontop of both earcups.

Moving to the right earcup we just see the PRO gaming audio classification and a large volume control knob.

Another convenient feature of the F.R.E.Q.5 is that both earcups can turn inwards a total of 90 degrees making them completely flat and ready for transport inside your LAN bag.

Both earcups are quite large (could be just a tad larger) and are padded with black leather which is quite comfortable even after long periods of time.

The headband also features nice black leather padding which is equally comfortable.

The headband as expected can be extended on both sides up to 20cm via a total of 25 increments.

The product name as usual is placed on the exterior of the headband.

At the end of the cable coming out from the headset you can either use the 2m USB cable (PC connection) or the 3.5mm mini audio jack (MP3 Players and smartphones).
