LucidSound has quietly been making waves with their solid gaming headphones that are not only priced affordably but give gamers another company to look at when considering headsets for work and/or play.

LucidSound made a splash at E3 last year with their universal LS40 headset. The headset is powered by DTS Headphone:X technology that will give gamers a more immersive experience that will give gamers pinpoint audio positioning which means you'll be able to hear and determine the direction of enemy footsteps more accurately in an FPS setting. The headset also provides audiophile-grade 7.1 surround sound via an uncompressed wireless signal which will surely be put through its paces not just with games but with movies as well. Advanced channel-hoping engineering actively searches for the optimum wireless connection, dramatically reducing interference and providing a rock-solid signal with the console or host device. In addition, the LS40 features two distinct surround-sound modes and three enhanced stereo modes, catering to all forms of media. Each mode is announced to the gamer via a voice prompt allowing for easy mode selection.

The LucidSound signature control scheme returns with enhanced features allowing gamers to individually alter game and chat volume simply by rotating the ear-cup. The LS40 allows easy adjustment of controls with no need to search for buttons or ungainly rockers or switches. All-new smartphone control provides full support for cell phones allowing gamers to take a call, hang up, and control audio playback using the discrete button fashioned into the center of the earcup.

Designed for sustained gaming sessions the integrated rechargeable battery provides up to 15 hours of uninterrupted use and a new selectable on/off mic-monitoring system allows players to hear their own voice through their headset.

The LS40 Wireless Surround Universal Gaming Headset is compatible with a wide range of gaming devices including the PlayStation®4, Xbox One, PlayStation®3, PC/MAC, mobile phones, and smart devices.
