Prev2 of 2Next
Metal band still reverberates when touched
7.1 performance isn't up to par with competitors
Overly expensive when compared feature-to-feature with competitors
Missing the on-ear buttons of a lot of other headsets makes mid-game muting and volume tweaks a bit of a pain
So-so surround sound
A bit pricey
Awkward placement of the sound card/control module
Quite a hefty price
Supplied sound card doesn't use the microphone to its full potential
Microphone-monitoring feature isn't documented anywhere - found it almost by accident

What's HotHyperX has packed the Revolver S with great virtual surround sound, and while that usually isn't something I would personally look for in a headset, I couldn't help but use it as it's fantastic. The Revolver S is also very comfortable, with some...

Mic is non-retractable and cannot be folded away if not used, Kind of bulky to chuck into a bag, No volume control on the headset, Ears can get warm & sweaty due to the leather material in Summer/Spring
