Creative Redefines Overkill with New Sound Blaster Gaming Headset

Continuing on the Creative's winning style first seen in the Falal1ty line, the Sound Blaster Arena arrives in royal fashion to take the title as company's top-of-the-line headset. Packed with all the power of an elite sound card into a pair of headphones, the Arena USB headset is made for intense gaming action. Creative paired their X-Fi sound audio enhancing technology with their EAX 3D soundscaping system to come up with a headset that is great for gaming and music. A detachable noise-canceling microphone allows the lucky user to use voice chat features for in-game cooperation.

The software that enables Creative's hardware provides several other key features. For starter, you can change your voice across the whole spectrum from Vader to Madonna. Intelligent filtering will also help eliminate background noise which could interfere with speech transmissions. Lastly, ALchemy repairs games that lost 3D sound function due to a Microsoft patch to Vista. The Arena USB gaming headset will start out at $159 when it reaches shelves as early as next week.
