AUDIO PERFORMANCE
Dual Sound Signature
Engineered as the world's first true competitive gaming headset, the H7
Tournament Edition features dual sound signature that give you control of the
realism of your entertainment, even during tournaments without requiring on-site
software installations. Whichever and whatever your entertainment is, you can
choose between the Analog mode and digital USB mode for a tailored and immersive
experience.
The Analog mode is designed to replicate the original signature of
your audio.
For Immersive Audio, or for Competitive Gaming
When connected via USB mode, you will have the choice of selecting BlasterX
Acoustic Engine profiles to improve the overall immersion, or X-Plus Mode1
designed with specially-tuned audio profiles for popular competitive games.
X-Plus is specifically developed with pro-gaming requirements. When configured,
X-Plus relegates non-critical audio cues specific to most popular competitive
games today. So, it bumps up the key audio cues for an extra gaming
advantage!
Being tournament-ready, you can save your X-Plus sound preferences right into
the headset, so it will reproduce your sound configuration without any need to
install software when you're connected to different gaming setups.
Improved 50mm Drivers for Greater Sensitivity and Better
Gameplay
Large, responsive 50mm FullSpectrum drivers deliver astounding sound. Rated
at 118dB/mW, the improved drivers have been tuned for even clearer, louder and
more accurate sound reproduction. Feel every bone-shattering explosion and the
rattle of gunfire as you immerse yourself in games like never before with the H7
Tournament Edition.
DESIGN
New Sleek Look

brushed metal earcup plates and dark gun metal finishing, plus Sound
Blaster's signature red accents.
Lightweight, Ergonomic Design

leatherette to complement its sturdy metal architecture, the H7 Tournament
Edition boasts superior comfort and ergonomics for you to wear all day without
feeling tired.

aluminium architecture that keeps up with your gaming – day in, day out, at
home, or on the go. The sturdy steel headband ensures a snug fit on your head
with minimal flex for ultimate stability.
Tilt Driver Design

frequencies and better sound separation where every detail crisp and clear.
