  • The desktop stand and removable mic are nice design ideas. The overall build quality is good. The Roccat Kave XTD 5.1 Analog really shines in gaming and movie use, especially when supplied with content which is designed for 5.1 systems...

  • Obviously the XTD Kaves are a premium purchase, they're supposed to dominate and obliterate all other headphones on the market (rough example from slogans on their website). And in some respects I can really see the places the money has been spent. The 5....

  • Surround sound is a difficult thing to quantify, but one thing (in my mind) is a given; virtual surround sound is nothing compared with true surround sound. Therefore the ROCCAT Kave XTD headset must be one of the best true surround headsets on the marke...

  • Starting with the build quality of the Kone XTD we have a headset which very much impresses. If we were to be super picky having some metal extenders on the arms would maybe be nice but the plastic used here does feel durable. The soft touch coating feels...

  • Chunky design is robust, Very good comfort levels, Good overall sound quality
  • Cable isn't modular, Doesn't quite excel at any one thing
  • The Roccat Kave XTD is a decent gaming headset that delivers comfort and decent sound quality. However a non-modular cable and the lack of that one killer feature means it doesn't quite stand out from the crowd. Read more: Best gaming headsets 2014...

  • PriceAll this performance comes with a mighty price tag, with many major retailers selling the Roccat Kave XTD 5.1 for around £150 here in the UK. Overclockers.co.uk have stock for £129.99 at the moment, which is certainly better than the RRP. I'm not eve...

  • Quite light and comfy, Has its own soundcard, Plenty of features
  • USB interface only, Not very portable, Spotty app compatibility
  • The Roccat Kave XTD presents quite a deal for PC gamers, saving them much-needed chassis space with its own sound card. That said, the XTD is in no way ideal for portable use, nor is it compatible with any platform but Windows. Wireless headsets, like So...
