Mad Catz has announced the shipping of the Trigger Stereo Headset, for use with the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
Darren Richardson, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz stated, “The Trigger is the second of our co-branded headsets to be released for the Xbox 360 and we are excited to bring high quality professional gaming audio to a mass market consumer in time for the holiday season.”
Trigger Features
The Trigger Stereo Headset includes precision balanced 40mm neodymium drivers, the highest quality drivers available for use in commercial headsets.
If the chatter from your opponent gets distracting and starts to hinder your online gameplay experience, just turn a dial on the in-line audio controller (A) to tune them out. Game volume (B) can also be adjusted on-the-fly so you can drown out your foe’s voice but still hear stealthy in-game footsteps creeping up behind you. Use the integrated headset port (C) to effortlessly connect the Trigger to your controller, and mute/unmute the microphone with the flick of a switch (D)
Fixed microphones may not always properly align with your mouth, resulting in decreased sound quality when communicating over Xbox LIVE. That problem is solved with the Trigger’s flexible solution – – it provides the freedom to bend the mic into a position that’s optimal for picking up your voice. The unique design allows the mic to fold up and out of the way when not in use.
When blasting zombies for hours on end, headset comfort is a must. The Trigger delivers with a padded, adjustable headrail which extends an extra 1.25 inches on either side to accommodate a wide range of head sizes and soft, pliable earcups which swivel to provide a comfortable around-the-neck resting position.
