Review: ASUS Strix Fusion 500 Headset

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 03/20/2018 04:33 PM | source: | 14 comment(s)

We take the ASUS Strix Fusion 500 gaming headset in for review. The headset is advertised with the introduction of an ESS 9018 DAC and Sabre 9601K Amplifier. The Fusion 500 isn't, however, wireless, so it cannot be directly compared to perhaps its closest rival, the Corsair Void Pro RGB.

Overpriced. No aux, not wireless, so no xbox or mobile capabilities, plenty of options out there for that kind of money

Pricing aside , ASUS made a seriously slick looking headset with the sound quality to back it off. Kudos to them!

No need to replace my HyperX Cloud II for the time being tho.

How can you tell they are overpriced without even looking at frequency response chart? Then, they come with internal sound card, which adds a lot into price as well. Well, it's PC headsets, so they don't have to be wireless or mobile.

But, for that price i would go with Sennheiser PC350 Game Zero.

This isn't a headset made for Xbox?
