If you're looking for a good computer headset for your child, you won't find a better option than the A4Tech HS 60. It balances everything: low cost, comfortable headband adjustment, the ability to participate in group chats and quite decent sound reproduction.

But it is quite expected from the device of this price segment and quite solvable - buying the same headphones.

Design and equipment

A4Tech HS 60 headset is sold in a usual plastic box, no cardboard boxes and cases are not included. Immediately "fur" ear cushions are put on the headphones, in a separate compartment there is a changeable pair - made of leatherette.

Furry ear cushions are a subject of contention for many users:

  • Some gamers complain that they are hot to play in for a long time.
  • Others say they fit comfortably and don't chafe like leather headphones.
  • Several users praise the chic sound isolation that the "furry headphones" provide.

But in opposition to them are players who compared the ear cushions and claimed that the mech headphones are worse at isolating extraneous noise and let more sounds out of the game, interfering with those around them.

The main advantage is that there are two pairs of ear cushions. And so everyone can choose the ones that are more comfortable for him. The headset is equipped with a special hook to hang the earphones on the monitor. This accessory is rarely used, it looks too flimsy.

The headband is metal, with a soft fabric lining that does not fit tightly to the metal. The depth of the headband is adjusted by sliding the cups up/down on the brackets. When making adjustments, make sure that the wire connecting the headband and headphones is not stretched too much. It is very thin, it looks fragile, it does not stretch to the full length of the bracket.

There is a cord to the right earpiece that connects to the computer. Part of the cord is twisted at the top to prevent the cable from being pulled when putting the headset on. But many users have noticed that over time the cord curls even more and, moreover, in the other direction. Therefore, from time to time it has to be disconnected from the computer and untangled.

On the left earpiece there is a microphone. It is attached to the foot, stands far beyond the "ear". The owners of the headset say that one of the advantages of the microphone is a flexible leg. So you can twist and bend it as you wish to achieve the ideal sound transmission. The tip of the leg is covered by a soft foam head.

Features of Use

Unlike the Logitech G230, this headset has a very cleverly placed volume control on the cord. It turns out that the scroll wheel is right under your hands - on the table or on your lap. Also, users note that it's much more convenient to mute the microphone with the button on the control rather than on the headphone's cup, as in more expensive headsets or a combination of keys on the keyboard.

For headphones to enjoy their sound, users recommend the following steps:

  • connect the headset directly to the computer, without using adapters;
  • Update your sound card;
  • Adjust the sound playback "for yourself.

Keep in mind that with a significant amplification of the speakers of the headset can not cope with the sound transmission, instead of the expected quality playback will appear monotonous noise. Therefore, it is better to perform all manipulations with the headphones on your head, tracking the slightest changes.

Sound Playback

Gamers note that for everyday use, the A4Tech HS 60 is almost perfect. It perfectly transmits the sounds of the game. In CS:GO you can clearly hear where a grenade has exploded and where the shooting is going on. It's clear where the person is moving from, as the footsteps are heard in the right direction.

According to the reviews of computer headset owners:

  • "Such headphones are not sorry to break and buy new ones. But it turned out they also have normal sound. Now I can easily play at night without disturbing anyone's sleep.
  • "We use the headphones with the whole family. My son plays, my husband watches movies, I do Skype consulting. Everything is fine, the sound quality is good.
  • "The headphones are sealed, which allows you to immerse yourself in the game and not be distracted. I did not notice any extraneous noise, the volume is conveniently adjustable."

Users also use the headset to watch movies on a laptop or computer. The sound quality is good, but not superb. But thanks to excellent sound isolation, with A4Tech HS 60 headphones users can enjoy nighttime viewing. Even with loud harsh sounds in the movies, the people around you can't hear what's going on in the cinematographer's headphones.

Microphone performance

The microphone is very well placed, you do not need to reach for it, just set the head in front of your face. During the conversation the speaker does not hear extraneous noise, rustling, clattering keys. Excessive sounds "cuts off" foam head, leaving only the sound of a human voice. Speech is transmitted clearly, intelligible, without stuttering.

This makes the headset very comfortable for use in online games, where you want to be constantly present in the chat. In addition, the headphones are optimally suited for training courses, consulting via Skype.

Conclusion

For this money (from 699 rubles) A4Tech HS 60 is the best that you can buy for games on the computer, communication in Skype or watching movies at home. Sound is well transmitted, the microphone adequately broadcasts speech. The main thing is not to overdo the volume, because in this case there is interference, noise, the quality of playback is reduced. And expect "atmosphere" from this headset is not worth it, here the headphones only transmit the usual gaming sounds.
