- Dolby Pro Logic IIx optimizes the surround sound experience for the most realistic multi-directional sound
INNOVATIVE GAMING FEATURES
The H Wireless headset brings to market two gaming-specific audio functions that have been designed to create the ideal chat and audio experience.
- ChatMix lets the user set the right balance between game audio and chat audio for the perfect balance of game volume and communication levels
- LiveMix brings automation to that process, dynamically reducing game audio to the level of the user’s choice only when chat audio is detected

It can store your extra lithium-ion battery or act as a charger for it, and it serves as a heads up display (HUD) letting you know what features are now enable on the headset and if you so choose. Which of the 5 custom audio profiles it’s now set to.
