No sound unheard: ROCCAT starts shipping Kave XTD 5.1 Digital
11.18.00
Hamburg, 31 January 2014 –
ROCCAT™ Studios, German manufacturer of high-quality gaming
peripherals, today announces the availability of the Kave XTD 5.1
Digital gaming headset in Europe and North America. The true 5.1 gaming
headset is the flagship version of the new Kave XTD series. The Kave XTD
5.1 Digital builds upon the foundations laid by the original Kave
headset, rebuilding it from the ground up and adding impressive
innovations of its own, all the while refining the tried and tested
feature set that made the original such a success.
Smart improvements for smart gamers
The
Kave XTD 5.1 Digital includes a fully-equipped desktop remote with a
built-in premium 5.1 sound card. Also included in the feature-packed
remote is ROCCAT Smart Link, a patented technology which lets users pair
their smartphone to the remote via Bluetooth, allowing them to make and
receive calls through the headset while gaming. ROCCAT solved two
problems here: you don’t get on your team’s nerves making strange noises
while you try and talk to somebody on the phone with your headset still
on. Plus, nobody will be able to hear what you are saying on the phone,
because whatever chat software you were using gets muted once you pick
up the call. The rear side of the remote boasts 5.1 speaker ports,
letting users hook-up their existing speaker system to remote and easily
toggle between headset and speaker output. That means no more crawling
under the table to re-plug in audio cables. The remote is completed by
comprehensive headset and system audio controls.
Supreme surround sound and comfy build
Like
the original Kave, the Kave XTD 5.1 Digital provides true, rich 5.1
surround sound, but with enhanced componentry. With three driver units
per earcup aligned at a 12° angle, the headset delivers an immersive and
crisp sound. The headset comes with a completely reworked head band
and, compared to the original Kave 5.1, weighs 25% less. At the same
time new materials and engineering solutions make the headset very
robust and comfortable to wear – suitable for hours of gaming. The
detachable microphone has been redesigned, keeping smart details like
the mute LED while improving on reliability as well as sound quality.
The Kave XTD 5.1 Digital was nominated for the “Best Hardware” award at Gamescom 2013.
The Kave XTD 5.1 Digital gaming headset is available now for 169,99 Euro.
