Since you all are working so close to Sony I was wondering if the staff can recommend settings for Skyrim using the new Sony Headset that was just released.

They've just released the companion app and I was wondering if you guys can help me set the best settings for traveling around Skyrim?

Thanks everyone

5.1 Surround Sound I would imagine.

Oh I meant with the bass settings and such

Nope, it's 7.1 virtual surround. !!!!,

including a:

• Wireless Adaptor
• 3.5mm Audio Cable
• Micro-USB Recharging Cable

Features

• Pretty much plug and play. Plug in the dongle and you are ready to go. No other setup was needed. Didn't even need to go to settings or anything. Also, tried with my Macbook and that worked plug and play also. They also work with Windows (will try that later)

• Headset has a volume button, VSS (virtual surround) button, chat/audio buttons for separate volume control on game audio and chat audio, Mute button (functions as sidetone control when held), and a power, 1, and 2, switch. When you switch to power it turns it off. When you switch to 1 its without bass boost, and 2 is with bass boost.

• Battery. I will have to update this later, I am curious about this but will need to do a full charge and then see how long till it drains completely.

• Sidetone. These do have sidetone, you need to hold mute to activate. There are 2 sidetone levels. Low and High.

Comfort

• They are are comfortable and cup your ears completely. Your ears are pretty close to the driver, which is my only complaint about the comfort. It is not really uncomfortable, but if there was more separation from ear to driver I would be a bit more happy.

• Band is padded and comfortable. It feels fine on top of the head and doesn't squeeze your ears too much, feels fine. Everything on the headset is pretty much padded, so there is nothing that really sticks out as being uncomfortable.

• Overall comfort is good, which is very important for a gaming headset.

Sound Quality

• This is the tough part. I am going to critique these NOT like an audiophile. They are a gaming headset. They have exaggerated lows, recessed mids, and a bit of a spike toward the highs. What you will hear through these are gun explosions, [censored] blowing up, and car engines. Will I listen to a flac file of in rainbows on these? No. But do they sound good for $99 headphones that I can walk around the house with, talk to my friends on, and throw on the couch when I am done? Yes.

• Most gamers will actually be thrilled with the sound. BUT only after a few things. First the setting on the headset should be on 2. Usually I don't like too much bass because I want accuracy. When I playing games I don't give a [censored], which is why I am using this headset and not a $500 pair. I want bass and I want color. So setting 2 gives you that bass. Second turn off VSS. Virtual surround sound is [censored] and makes it sound like [censored]. Stereo is fine and sounds much better.

• Voice quality is good. My friend said i sounded clear and had no complaints. I will have to ask more friends how i sound, but so far the mic is doing what i want.

• Sidetone is very natural. I couldn't really tell at first, but then I turned it off and then it becomes apparent. It is very subtle, though I wouldn't mind more options to make it even louder. Maybe that will happen when the companion app is launched.
