Testurteil: "3 out of 5 stars"
Test: Einzeltest: ASUS CineVibe USB gaming headset
Zitat: Pros: + Bass can be devilishly low
+ Vocals are clear (without rumble-feedback)
+ Rumble-feedback is a cool gimmick
Cons: - Rumblefeedback is very much an acquired taste
- Not comfortable if used for long periods
- USBonly connection
What ASUS really needs to do with the CineVibe is to roll in user-customisable EQ settings, letting you define the kind of sound you want. This way, we believe, the rumble-feedback can be used to better effect. Given that no software is shipped with the unit, there´s no method of turning the stereo headset into a pseudo 5.1-channel set of cans, although we´re probably asking a little much appreciating the £40 price-tag. The CineVibe rumble-feedback headset represents a good idea that is still a work in progress. We´d recommend ASUS looks at increasing the drivers to 50mm; attaching larger, round-the-ear pads, and fine-tuning the feedback via EQ settings. As it is, the £40 CineVibe headset is decent, if unremarkable.
