Sound quality from the Plantronics Rig is fantastic
Thanks to the 40mm speaker drivers. They make gunshots from games sound ear-splittingly realistic. Three EQ profiles give you plenty of flexibility based on what you want to do
You can choose from pure
Intensify

And looks cool
Too. You'd happily be seen wearing it out and about
So long as you rem
Headset itself is well designed
Headset provides decent audio quality

USB controller is easy to use
The editors didn't like
Pricey for a wired
Stereo headset
Cable clutter could be a problem
No option to disable sidetone
Not entirely Xbox One compatible
Wire reach may be an issue

Seeing as you'll have a long lead trailing across the floor to the sofa. For that price

Not entirely Xbox One compatible, Wire reach may be an issue

If you're a gamer constantly missing phone calls, or just somebody who wants music to block out most but not all of the world, then the RIG performs admirably. It's feasible if gaming is your only vice to get headphones that perform as well or better for...
