00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:07.879
today's product unboxing is going to be rather interesting this is the pulse

00:00:04.520 --> 00:00:10.960
Wave 2 PC gaming headset it is according

00:00:07.879 --> 00:00:13.000
to the manufacturer the most versatile

00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:18.320
gaming headset ever made for PC you can change modes on the Fly between USB 7.1

00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:22.760
or stereo you have evidently Dynamic Master Control where I think they're

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:27.560
referring to this uh USB sound card right here okay virtual 7.1 surround

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:33.399
featuring Sonic force feedback so these are not only USB powered in terms of the

00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:35.200
amplification and the sound card and the

00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:40.520
headphones themselves but they are also USB powered in the sense that they

00:00:38.160 --> 00:00:45.079
vibrate yes they have vibration effects so you can feel the explosions also

00:00:43.480 --> 00:00:49.120
featuring a detachable microphone so this is made by Tekken motion and let's

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:53.800
move around to the side where we can find out o pulsating blue green and red

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:57.399
lights vibration effects which we covered already stereo virtual 7.1

00:00:55.760 --> 00:01:01.879
surround so yes it it should be noted this is virtual 7.1 surround okay we

00:01:00.199 --> 00:01:05.560
have a padded headband which obviously we'll find out once we open it up let's

00:01:03.879 --> 00:01:08.880
see okay well here's some specs that you guys may or may not be interested in you

00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:11.439
can always pause it and read the specs should you so

00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.720
desire there you go all right

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:23.240
compatibility okay so oh works with Windows XP Vista and Windows 7 iPod and

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.759
MP3 players any audio device with a 32

00:01:23.240 --> 00:01:31.320
mm in so that's interesting so it has the versatility to not only be a USB

00:01:29.479 --> 00:01:37.360
headset and but also to come in a box or a

00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:39.960
blister pack whichever you should prefer

00:01:37.360 --> 00:01:45.880
so I guess I get to do two unboxings well first of all one thing we find

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:47.759
inside the box here is a driver install

00:01:45.880 --> 00:01:51.439
disc with the user manual on the disc so you might not want to throw that away

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:54.960
since it clearly has a user manual on it but the drivers I would definitely

00:01:52.840 --> 00:02:00.840
recommend downloading the latest from the C Media or teeken motion website C

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:04.840
media is the chipset maker of on

00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.840
board sound card on the

00:02:07.800 --> 00:02:15.840
USB audio control device here okay so what do we got well we' got some

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:23.560
packaging that clearly needs to come away all right there we go we've

00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:25.840
got whatever this is which I guess we

00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:31.840
will find out in a while some kind of USB something or other that's for sure

00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:31.840
okay on or off

00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:38.760
USB port wow interesting it comes with

00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:43.440
double-sided Velcro so you can apparently attach that to something okay

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:49.879
so let's go ahead and take this off I may need that there manual on the

00:02:47.239 --> 00:02:55.599
disc okay let's go ahead take out our control inline

00:02:51.920 --> 00:02:58.879
controls okay let put away my keys

00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:02.440
here and let's have a look at the pulse

00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:05.200
wave to PC gaming headset so actually

00:03:02.440 --> 00:03:08.640
let's start with the Jacks that we have so there is our USB

00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:18.920
Jack you know what I'm going to find out what this is first I'll be just a moment

00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:24.080
all right so the user manual reveals this to be an external battery power

00:03:21.440 --> 00:03:30.760
pack so you go ahead and you put four aaa's in there you turn it on okay then

00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:32.560
you can use the pulse Wave 2 to its full

00:03:30.760 --> 00:03:41.080
extent even if you're plugged into say for example an MP3 player so you just go

00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:43.879
ahead okay you plug this guy into

00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:47.720
here okay so then it's powered and then you plug this green Jack into your mp3

00:03:46.200 --> 00:03:51.840
player or any other portable audio device and you can get the vibration

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:56.159
effects which are triggered by bass as well as the pulsating lights on the side

00:03:54.439 --> 00:04:03.280
of the headset even if you are not plugged in

00:03:59.760 --> 00:04:04.519
to your PC so that's pretty cool all

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:10.480
right actually hold on I missed something in here I missed the detachable mic which is here okay so

00:04:08.799 --> 00:04:13.879
let's have a look at the overall unit okay so we're using pretty standard cord

00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:18.639
although it seems to be fairly thick gauge which is good we got our uh

00:04:16.280 --> 00:04:23.759
microphone as well as our headphone Jacks all

00:04:20.359 --> 00:04:26.720
right we can also plug in via USB to the

00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:32.680
back of the PC and we can use it as a USB sound card okay so using the control

00:04:30.479 --> 00:04:38.479
pod here all you have to do is switch between USB and standard mode so you're

00:04:36.080 --> 00:04:42.280
just basically selecting which input you want to accept a signal from so if you

00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:46.759
put it in USB mode then your computer will detect it as a c media audio device

00:04:44.840 --> 00:04:49.479
if you put it in standard mode stereo mode whatever you want to call it then

00:04:48.320 --> 00:04:55.639
you're just going to use your analog Jacks you can use your onboard sound card so this is a complaint that I've

00:04:52.280 --> 00:04:57.039
had about usb uh headsets in the past

00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:00.960
and that is that if you have a decent sound card there's pretty much no point

00:04:58.960 --> 00:05:05.600
using a USB headset because your sound card is probably better so in this case

00:05:03.400 --> 00:05:09.520
you can use the USB for like if you're running on your laptop or whatever where

00:05:07.400 --> 00:05:11.800
usually the onboard is terrible and then you can switch over to these if you're

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:17.840
on your desktop and you have a better sound card so that's kind of Handy okay Vibe on USB on you can mute your mic

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:22.560
with this button right here got volume controls as well as Vibe controls and

00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:28.360
this one two three thing here I believe these are base modes I'm just going to

00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:35.520
double check that ah yeah yes so sub mode one is

00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:40.280
lights only sub mode two is lights and vibration and sub mode three is

00:05:37.479 --> 00:05:45.840
vibration only so that basically refers to how the pulse wave to the uh the

00:05:43.880 --> 00:05:49.960
vibrators as well as the lights on the side are going to response to base

00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:57.360
signals that are being sent to them so I'm going to go ahead I'm going to attach the detachable mic

00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:01.199
here okay there we are so you can see it's quite flexible put that wherever

00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:06.160
you need to put it you can put it like you know up here in your forehead if you

00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:10.199
felt like it sounds pretty useful also comes off so you can tuck it away or you

00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:13.680
can just leave it attached all the time which is probably what someone like me

00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:20.000
would do so you just go put it like that then come down like this okay we've got

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:22.639
a pley material on the inside of the ear

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:25.759
cups right just some foam here you can't really see the drivers themselves

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:29.319
unfortunately I do like to show you guys that when I can you can see there's

00:06:27.440 --> 00:06:33.240
quite a range of flexibility so no matter what the shape of your head is

00:06:31.039 --> 00:06:38.560
should be able to find a fit that works for you also the headband is

00:06:35.960 --> 00:06:42.400
adjustable so it adjusts quite a bit so if you have a very tall head that'll

00:06:41.039 --> 00:06:46.520
work for you if you don't have a very tall head it should also work for you

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:50.039
okay this isn't quite as padded as I would typically like to see but it's

00:06:48.479 --> 00:06:53.680
also not uncomfortable especially because you can adjust the size so that

00:06:51.599 --> 00:06:58.759
it doesn't put too much pressure on you in any way shape or form also a pley

00:06:56.120 --> 00:07:03.479
type material with foam underneath and I think that's pretty much for the overall

00:07:00.840 --> 00:07:07.639
external Aesthetics of the headset so I'm just going to put my tripod down and

00:07:05.479 --> 00:07:12.599
you guys I'm going to model them for you y this be a microphone and also an eye

00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:17.400
patch no I'm just kidding it's just a microphone so you can see as I mentioned

00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:21.840
before it is quite adjustable indeed you can put it pretty much wherever you see

00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:26.160
fit including tucking it away over here so this is what the headset looks like

00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:30.960
from the side they're quite open I can hear myself speaking quite easily uh

00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:35.560
which means that not only will you be able to hear sounds uh around you and

00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:40.440
one of the recommended uses that they have for this particular headset is to

00:07:37.919 --> 00:07:46.199
use it in USB mode use vent trillo or whatever um speech app that you use to

00:07:44.400 --> 00:07:49.240
map your friends voices to your headset and then you can actually still run your

00:07:47.400 --> 00:07:52.000
speakers off your sound card so you would still be able to hear the game

00:07:50.520 --> 00:07:56.960
sounds or rather your speakers off your sound card yeah you'd run your speakers off your sound card and then have your

00:07:54.879 --> 00:08:00.560
game sounds mapped to that set of speakers so you can hear the voices

00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:04.199
through your uh headphones but then you can hear all the game sounds through the

00:08:02.400 --> 00:08:08.000
headphones outside so it's an easier way to hear your friends if you're gaming on

00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:11.639
a team for example oh yeah one thing I haven't showed you guys yet is there is

00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:14.680
a clip on the back of this so you could clip it somewhere should you so desire

00:08:13.520 --> 00:08:19.800
and I guess that's pretty much it just wanted to show you guys what it looks like when it is installed on a user's

00:08:18.440 --> 00:08:25.599
