Creative Tournament USB Gaming Headset Silences Background Noise
January 8th, 2009 by Joanna Stern
Gamers rejoice! Especially the gamer that doesn’t want his or her opponents to hear Mom in the background. Introduced today, Creative’s Tournament USB Gaming Headset HS 1100 features the company’s new proprietary technology, Silencer, which aims to eliminate all background noise from a headset microphone, so your voice sounds crystal clear during in-game communications. According to Creative, Silencer differs from other noise-canceling headsets by blocking all additional ambient noise, including house fans and people talking in the background. In addition to the exclusive Silencer, the Creative Tournament USB Gaming Headset features Creative’s proprietary X-Fi audio technology, including X-Fi Crystalizer and X-Fi CMSS-3D. While the headset is money for WoW fans and beyond, it also is perfect for avid VoIP callers.

I bought Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset a few weeks before christmas as my own present from http://www.dealsshoppie.com/search.php?keyword=Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset! I love this thing and someone will probably have to pry it from my cold dead hands some day. An average rating of 4.3 was provided by many users. These ratings seem to be accurate as I too agree with their views after buying the product.

Great headset!
Install the drivers play with the settings, get crystal clear sound, they also have a bass that can give you a brain concussion!
