Using the Piranha

Putting aside our gripes with the cable length and the annoying volume control, the Piranha performed remarkably during several hours of continuous Team Fortress 2 play. No sweating or sore ears after a long time playing. We heard (and were heard by) with clarity our fellow online players. Game music and sound effects were also clearly reproduced. The foam padding of the earcups canceled noise room very well, providing a much more immersive gaming experience.

As a gaming headset, the Piranha ground to dust the generic and cheap counterpart we’ve being using to this day (much to our shame as hardcore gamers). We also tested the Piranha as a music listening headphone and the result was pretty satisfactory, although, of course, its performance is way off a professional music headphone. The Piranha doesn’t have a bass booster or a spatial sound feature – but then again, music isn’t its focus. It’s, after all, a “gaming communicator” as the gimmicky tagline says. Our shame for using a lesser device is finally over.
