Practicality, high audio fidelity and comfortable.

In fact it no 7.1chs headset, because it has only 2 Drivers. Your 7.1chs is simulated by virtual effect. But with only 2 speakers, ensures excellent Stereo audio quality and shall have the Bass Impact technology which produces mechanical vibrations in low frequences, creating the sensation of have large subwoofers. Completely wireless and comfortable , I use it for my bass workouts since I live in an apartment and can not disturb my neighbors.
