Ezonics Esound 5.1 6-Channel USB Headphones Review

October 6th 2004 | Multimedia

If you are a total audiophile and demand nothing but the absolute best from your audio equipment, these headphones are probably not for you. They are comfortable and perform well, but the slight distortion at high volumes and the lack of volume control hold them back. However if you are looking for better than average performance with great surround sound capability and a reasonable price ($82.00 from Computergeeks.com), you should definitely take a closer look at the Ezonics Esound 5.1 6-Channel USB Headphones.

The fact that these headphones do not require a sound card is also a big plus. Systems without a sound card, or with sound cards capable of less than 5.1 stereo sound, can now have their audio performance upgraded quickly and without opening the computer case. Laptop owners who find their onboard audio performance lacking, will also be rewarded by the use of the Ezonics Esound headphones!

Final Rating (4 out of 5 stars)

Pros:
• Good looking
• Comfortable to wear
• Long cord for easy movement
• No sound card required
• Good sound quality
• Great surround sound capability

Cons:
• Lack of volume control
