Audio Profiles
Sound is Your Biggest Ally
Just imagine yourself surrounded by blind spots that make it visually impossible to get around. Who knows, you might even find yourself dead. So, what if one split second could alter your fate? Or perhaps, the distant shrill of a siren could hint at certain dangers looming ahead of you. As the cornerstone of your victory, we have a list of audio profiles, which is specially tuned to help you realize the potential of sound, your biggest ally.
Call of Duty Series
Incorporating other time periods and conflicts, gamers can experience war in an epic scale with our specialized audio tuning for the series, which spans from Call of Duty 2 to dark and gritty 21st Century Call of Duty Black Ops 3, eliminating masses of bots and human foes alike. Imagine yourself thrown into a conflicted environment (zombies included too). Put on your solid headset, and select the audio profile for Call of Duty series.

Counter Strike: Global Offensive
Set in a real-world situation, Counter Strike: Global Offensive is a team-based action game that requires players to dodge enemy gunfire while discharging firearms with pinpoint accuracy. While you're making calculated moves, you will pick up a range of audio details from explosions and gunfire to bomb-planting and defusing. Hence, our precise tuning combined with our in-depth understanding of the Source Engine gives you better hearing and better control of your environment, so you can hit your enemies with your best shot (preferably in the head).
DotA 2
There's something transcendental about sound. It not only takes us from destination A to destination B, but also acts as our eyes that hint at the possible perils that could kill you in an ambush. We aspire to fill up every nook and cranny of your gaming environment with the best possible audio cues, so you can slay your enemy's Ancient without worries. Let your ears pick up the essential cues, namely spells, ability charge-ups or even your fellow teammate's cry for help! With our custom audio tuning, you're well covered in your gameplay.
