Ok so i finally got my New Sharkoon Majestic 5.1's.

They ARE a hefty piece of equipment but not any bigger or heavier than the Medusa 5.1's i'd killed.

The set up on pc is almost identical to the Medusa's complete with the same demos and sound field set up.

I have to admit to being disappointed at first as, when first installed, the sound on CSS was god awful :( However, i installed the latest drivers and "expirimented" with the individual settings and volume controls and must now admit to being really impressed.

The bass set up even has in-built vibration which is a really weird sensation at first use but becomes a really nice bonus feature to them. the sound is deep and clear for being a USB headset and the volume control allows you to set tem up to "accentuate" certain sound fields.

I  swear that these can do nothing but improve your ganing as i can hear things on server that were previously unheard. The sound quality is excellent when gaming, listening to music or watching dvd's and the in-built pc graphic equaliser allows you to set these up to suit your media.

The mic is small and unobtrusive and can be removed really easily should you not wis to use it.

I hope they last up to the abuse they're gonna take as i've a feeling i'm gonna grow really fond of these babies.

I'd highly recommend them to anyone who's looking for a new (fairly inexpensive) gaming headset.

Brilliant Raven, new headset. I've seen the majestic and it looks quite nice m8... good purchase. Me on the otherhand i followed Alpha69's instructions and went for a Icemat Syberia :)

Have fun with it...

I've got the Sharkoon Majestic 5.1s too and I agree with everything Raven said.

I have done the complete opposite

I got the sharkoons and broke 2 sets of them and I have moved onto the Medusa's
