When it comes to music, the Thresher sounds almost as good as a dedicated pair of audio headphones. MORE: Our Favorite Gaming Keyboards Music Performance The headset is excellent at balancing music and voices, which also comes in handy if you're listening to music. This works well, helping players balance chat with in-game audio. The sweeping scores and copious dialogue in Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt sounded crystal clear, as did the clangor of swords and the hoofbeats of horses.įor games of a competitive bent, players can make use of a control dial for chat volume on the left ear cup. Games that weren't optimized for surround sound also worked just fine. The boom of rockets and the crackle of gunfire sounded explosive and percussive, drawing me further into the experience.

(The PS4 and Xbox One versions are not 100 percent cross-compatible you can get stereo sound on either system, but you can get only surround sound on PC and whichever console your headset favors.) Turning on surround sound was a huge boon in Mass Effect Andromeda, where I could hear my enemies coming from around corners or above me.
I tested the Thresher with a variety of PC and PS4 games and was impressed with its performance across the board. I handed it off to a co-worker, who described the peripheral as "supremely comfortable." He also lamented its lack of a 3.5mm audio jack, but had nothing but glowing praise for the way it felt. Even when I was wearing glasses, there was little sense of pressure, and once the headset was on, it didn't need any adjusting. The flexible headband ensures that you'll get a perfect fit, while the ear cups make a firm seal around the ears without ever feeling uncomfortable.

There's also an audio volume dial on the right ear cup, which doubles as a mute button, and a chat volume dial on the left ear cup, which doubles as a mic-mute button. With an arching steel headband, mesh ear cups (with blue highlights for the PS4 version, or green for the Xbox One) and an extendable microphone, the Thresher Ultimate has nothing extraneous and just enough flourishes to look distinctive. Although you won't be wearing this headset much outside, the Thresher is pretty, too.
