Several DSPs come together to form the heart and soul of this audio chip, which can decode Dolby Digital streams and perform various audio-enhancing tricks. It's armed with a "Sound Core3D" quad-core sound and voice processor, which is impressively powered by a single USB port. The Recon3D gives the Omega an advantage over the other headsets in this roundup because of the additional hardware and sound processing that's baked into the device. The only wireless headset that's compatible is the Omega Wireless, but as far as wired cans, they're pretty much all fair game. It's basically an external USB soundcard and you can actually purchase the Recon3D by itself and use your existing headphones. Shown above is Creative's Sound Blaster Recon3D USB audio device. Right below the volume buttons is a power button.

When fully charged, the drivers pump out high volume audio, which you can adjust via two physical buttons on the left ear cup. Inside the ear cups are 50mm Neodymium magnet drivers, the go-to size for high-end gaming headsets. However, we will point out that the hollowed portion of Omega's ear cups are a little on the small side.
We're not completely sold one shape over the other, so aside from pointing out the difference, it's not an area we intend to over-emphasize. Is one better than the other? That really depends on the person wearing the headset and, to an extent, the shape of their ears.Ĭircular ear cups do a better job of surrounding the entire ear, while the oval design more closely follows the shape of a 'normal' ear, creating what feels like a cozier fit. The same is true if you're used to the Omega's design and then switch to, say, either of Corsair's ear cups. After spending several hours with circular ear cups, switching to the Omega headset with its more rectangular/oval shape made for a noticeable transition.
