Mad Catz Interactive says its new Tritton Katana HD 7.1 Wireless Headset is the first to power audio directly through HDMI, delivering eight channels of uncompressed sound.
Announced during CES 2016, the Katana HD 7.1 features DTS Headphone:X audio technology, a proprietary system Mad Catz has developed to create a more spatially interesting acoustic headspace.
Meaning: you get a deeper more three-dimensional sound during gaming.
Designed as the new flagship in the firm’s Tritton high=performance gaming audio range, the Katana HD provides gamers with unparalleled audio immersion via oversized 50 mm drivers and crystal clear interference-free chat through an omnidirectional boom mic.
The unit is described as completely operational on all major gaming platforms, including PS4, PS3, or PC. When playing on Xbox One, a pass-through port is ready to accept the included 3.5mm to 3.5mm chat cable.
