Vi i Gamereactor har tidligere testet ut flere produkter fra Roccat og har vært rimelig fornøyde. I slutten av juni lanserer Roccat noen nye øreplugger for gameren som ikke vil drasse rundt på mye "stort" utstyr på f.eks. LAN-partyer. Roccat Vire er navnet på produktet og er noen nye øreplugger som i følge Roccat skal ha en veldig god, balansert lyd.
Her er mer fra pressemeldingen vi mottok;
ROCCAT™, the young Hamburg-based manufacturer of professional gaming accessories, produced in 2008 its first product - the ROCCAT™ Kone Gaming Mouse that is already right at the forefront of the global premier league of gaming mice. With the VIRE Mobile Communication Gaming Headset, ROCCAT will be presenting in June what is probably the lightest gaming headset in the world.
Following a trend set in Korea, a world leader in professional gaming, ROCCAT's offering in the form of the VIRE will be the first headset to combine earphones and a microphone - and which can be connected not only to cell phones, but to PCs as well. Korean pro-gamers, particularly strategy gamers such as Warcraft3 gamers, are already using earphones themselves in professional tournaments as they find normal headphones too heavy and warm. ROCCAT is addressing this trend, and going one step further: it has developed an ultra-lightweight in-ear headset which combines a set of earphones and an in-line microphone, and which can be used with a wide range of devices.
Flexible: gaming, communication and music
As a real multi-talented performer, the VIRE can be used for gaming on the PC or handheld console, for mobile comms using a cell phone or for enjoying music while on the move on an MP3 player. Whether on the move or at home, thanks to its many adapter cables of varying lengths, the ROCCAT™ VIRE can be connected back and forth between PCs, laptops, cell phones, the iPhone®, BlackBerrys®, MP3 players and mobile gaming consoles - everything works with one headset.
Premium sound
The compact, powerful speaker drivers deliver rich trebles and bass, and crystal clear voice and audio playback. The open construction delivers brilliant sound. Furthermore, the microphone shields out unnecessary background noises and ensures your voice is transmitted clearly when chatting over VoIP or on the move while making calls.
Sensational comfort
The rubberized earphones remain securely in place even during tense gaming situations. Ergonomically shaped to fit the ear, the Vire is very comfortable to wear - and stays comfortable and easy to wear even for long periods. The carefully selected materials also ensure that the headset will stay looking as good as the day you bought it.
Soft bag included
Store your Vire in style with the accompanying bag, made from high quality stitched materials and featuring a Velcro fastening. It also doubles up as the perfect place to stow the numerous adapter cables.
The ROCCAT™ Vire Mobile Communication Gaming Headset will be available from retailers across Europe from the end of June 2009. The RRP will be €39.99.
