A couple of weeks ago I received a Shock Headset from Tt! Since I've had some time to test it out, I thought I would write a review.

I will be reviewing the Shining White headset but it also comes in Diamond Black. The change in colour is obviously a huge difference so if you are thinking of buying the black headset, please look elsewhere for a review.

The first thing I did was tear the beautiful box it comes in to shreds as I suggest you do but here is a photo of the complete box. All features are listed on the box as well as a clear plastic front so you can see if there is actually anything in there.
Also, please note that the warranty and installation disc are tucked inside the bottom of the box. Learn from my mistakes and you will not have to retrieve them from the bin.

Included in box:
Headset
Velvet carry bag
Installation CD
Warranty
User guide

Now to the actual headset...

Since this was my first headset it took a bit of getting used to but after a couple of days it became really comfortable. The neckband can be adjusted to fit any size of head (does not include tumors or deformities) and has a comfortable cushion so the headset doesn't dig into your head.
The microphone can be tucked into the headset which is really helpful. I've also had good results using it on Skype.

The sound quality is excellent and the padding blocks out a lot of outside sounds.

The entire headset also folds up, making it very portable.

Imagine these as sofas...

The cord is very long but also sturdy enough so as to not break when I crush it under my chair.
It also has a volume adjustment thingy which can also mute the microphone.
Since the image is very large I feel I should write more so I will say that each wire has a picture on it so you know which goes in the microphone/volume socket.

Overall this headset is a great option for gamers looking to upgrade their current headset/lack of headset. I give it an 8/10.
