Mad Catz FREQ9 The World’s 1st Surround Sound, Noise-Cancelling,
Wireless Headset with a Built-In Mic.
Multiplatform Wireless Bluetooth 4.0Â Headset with Surround Sound and
Invisible Microphone
Packed with state-of-the-art technology and compatible with a breath-taking
array of consoles, smart TVs and mobile devices, the Mad Catz FREQ 9Â sets an
ambitious performance standard in headset design, freeing you to experience
extreme sonic clarity anywhere, on practically any system, wirelessly.
Hear where your enemies are with surround sound, chat in-game more naturally
with binaural monitoring and listen lag-free with breakthrough wireless aptX
Audio technology. With the addition of an invisible mic, rechargeable Li-ion
battery and premium 50mm drivers, this could be the last headset you
ever buy.
Compatible with: PlayStation 4, Xbox One (Xbox One adapter sold separately),
Xbox 360, PC, Mac, Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Mad Catz MOJO, Amazon Fire TV,
and other smart devices.
Multiplatform – Connect to ALL Major Gaming Platforms and Smart
Devices
The F.R.E.Q.9Â Wireless Surround Headset connects to smart TVs, set top boxes
and any Bluetooth device. It includes an adapter box, 3.5mm jack, and 3.5mm to
3.5mm cable so you can connect to other consoles and computers as well. 10m/33ft
wireless range.
Surround Sound
Hear AM3D's Zirene Surround Sound through large 50mm Neodymium drivers. Based
on technology developed for F-18Â pilots to sonically track the position of
targets around them, AM3D's patented software engine moves the sound
environment out from inside your head to create a spacious audio landscape all
around you. AM3D Surround allows you to hear the locations of in-game hostiles
long before they sense your presence, and maybe discover a newfound appreciation
for your music collection as you can pinpoint individual instruments and their
position within the mix.
Digital Active Noise Cancellation (D-ANC)
Control the amount of background sound you hear with Soundchip's DiÂgital
Active Noise Cancellation (D-ANC). Coupled with superb sound isolation provided
by the earcups, D-ANC will completely block out your noisy environment when you
want to hear only the crystal-clear audio of your music or game.
Stop Shouting at Your Friends – use Binaural
Monitoring
When chatting in-game with D-ANC on, you can activate binaural monitoring to
allow some outside sound to pass back into the ear cups. Hearing your own voice
makes conversations over chat much more natural – your friends will thank
you. To implement binaural monitoring, the FREQ 9Â uses two mics to monitor
outside noise as well as two mics to monitor audio inside the earcups to
optimize pass-through of voice frequencies – handy if you want to talk to
someone in the room without removing your headset. And, binaural monitoring
reduces the feeling of pressure that ANC can sometimes cause.
Lag and Lip-Sync Issues Eliminated – aptX Makes it
Possible
Most Bluetooth headsets are only viable for listening to music because lag
between what you hear and what you see is too noticeable when gaming or watching
HD video. FREQ 9Â solves the problem of wireless lag by incorporating powerful
aptX low-latency technology under the hood. aptX enhances Bluetooth signal
timing so that lag and lip-sync issues are greatly reduced and the quality of
the original source audio is preserved. And, audiophiles rejoice! aptX
dramatically improves the audio signal over Bluetooth, transmitting
uncompressed, broadcast-standard sound from a wireless Bluetooth connection.
Dynamic Source Switching – Switch Between Devices Automatically
with Multi-Sync
Pair two devices to the FREQ 9Â simultaneously and the headset will manage the
audio interaction between them. For example, if you're watching a movie on your
tablet and your smartphone rings, the movie will automatically pause. You are
then free to answer the call using the FREQ 9s built-in mic and manipulate audio
via the on-ear controls. When you're done, the headset will return focus to the
tablet.
Ready for Travel
For those situations where Bluetooth connectivity is not possible, FREQ 9Â has
you covered with a 3.5mm input jack and an array of cables for connecting your
different devices. The included 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable allows you to listen wired
to your mobile device even you've activated airplane mode. The headset
incorporates a rechargeable, Li-ion battery with over 20 hours of battery life
per charge and packs into a low-profile travel case. Turn on Active Noise
Cancelling to drown out your noisy environment and download the Mad Catz A.P.P.
(for iOS and Android) to monitor battery life and control your settings.
