Cooler Master Storm Sirus 5.1 Gaming Headset
The Cooler Master Storm Sirus is a high quality headset built to last, and the audio quality and channel separation are quite good for a 5.1 headset. With that in mind, the $129 MSRP is fairly close to the top of the market.

Marketing Summary

Quote

Built for gaming enthusiasts and audiophiles alike, the CM Storm Sirus 5.1 Surround Sound Headset creates an immersive experience with hi-fidelity soundscapes and intense bass.

Sirus produces precise and crisp sounds through its 8 discrete speaker channel pairs. These consist of Front, Rear, Center, and Sub. These deliver accurate and fully adjustable real-time 360 degree audio – made possible by its Tactical Mixing Console. In addition, Sirus is coupled with a uni-directional microphone with background noise cancellation that enables crystal clear conversations with teammates and enemy combatants. This is a premium headset focused on high-end gaming purposes.


Packaging Contents

The interior packaging for the Sirus is a simple molded plastic insert that the headset and control puck both rest in. A cardboard insert is set in the back of the mold, which holds the extra wires and second pair of ear cups in place, and the headphones and control puck are both held in place to the cardboard by a few sets of twist ties.

Internal Packaging


The packaging keeps the internals in place and safe with minimal hassle in actually getting them out, also showing them off through the window on the exterior packaging. Quite a smart design.


After you remove the headset and control puck from the packaging by undoing the twist ties, you can remove the cardboard insert from the back of the molding and retrieve the rest of the contents. The first thing to be seen is the headset itself. It is a large, full can-style headset with an imposing design.

Sirius 5.1 Headset


The control puck/amplifier for the headset (officially referred to as the Tactical Mixing Console) is the next thing to be seen. It is a heavy, circular design roughly four inches in diameter, with a large rotary dial in the center and three buttons (for muting the headset, switching between adjustment modes and muting the microphone) arrayed between the dial and the volume meter. The bottom side if covered with rubber to hold it in place on a table or stand, and combined with the weight of the puck there should be little worry of it taking a fall from wherever it is placed.

Sirius Control Puck


Also included is a second set of ear cups (with a leatherette wrap for better noise isolation) and a direct-feed conversion cable for the headset if you want to plug it directly into your computer soundcard rather than use the control puck.
