CM Storm Pulse-R Aluminum Gaming Headset Review

Regarding gaming headsets and other gaming related peripherals, there are really a lot of brands competing in this market such as CM Storm, Steelseries, Ozone Gaming Gear, Mionix, just to name a few. They all have different types of products featuring various aesthetical traits, special features, striking looks, and much more. 

We do need some kind of sound device with our computers, since a desktop does not typically have a speaker built-in. If you like music, play games or simply watch movies on your computer, then I really recommend a good set of speakers or a headset/headphones. With these we will just have much a better sound experience then we would with sound from a monitor. One aspect that I really like to see on a headset is good comfort and ergonomics. For instance; if you watch a movie, listen to music, or if you are in the middle of a multiplayer game it is always nice if the headset you are wearing sits comfortably on your head. Otherwise you will the experience painful. Secondly, I really like to see retractable microphones on a headset; removable microphones can get lost and permanent microphones can really get in your way. I am also a really big fan of braided cables so to see that (or flat tangle free cables) is also great. And at last a really obvious thing is the sound quality, if you buy a headset you do want to have some good graded sound quality. 

 

 

Today we will take a look at the CM Storm Pulse-R Aluminum gaming headset, and like the name says an important feature of the headset is the aluminum accents on it. The headset also has a removable mic, and soft ear cushions/headband. So let us get onto the reviewing shall we?

Firstly, I would like to thank Cooler Master for providing the review sample. I guess most of you already know Cooler Master’s gaming subsidiary CM Storm, but for those of you who do not know them here is a little snippet from their website:
