Creative has unveiled new additions to its
ever-growing range of gaming headphones with the launch of the Creative
Tournament Edition SoundBlasterX H7 and H5.
The headphones build on the previously launched
standard SoundBlasterX H5 and SoundBlasterX H7 gaming headsets, and the
tournament additions are now equipped with larger 50 mm drivers and improved
ergonomic cushioning designed for extended gaming sessions.
Both Creative headsets are stereo but the H7Version
is equipped with a USB DAC that puts out virtual 7.1-channel audio, with
support for 24-bit/96 kHz audio formats. The headphones are equipped with
retractable microphones that range between 100 Hz to 15 kHz, with 2.2Ω
impedance, while the larger 50 mm drivers range between 20 Hz to 22 kHz, with
32Ω impedance, and 118 dB/mW sound-pressure sensitivity.
Unfortunately no information on pricing or worldwide
availability has been released as yet by Creative, but as soon as information
comes to light we will keep you updated as always.
