What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing has inconsistent frequency-response details: one field says 40 KHz while the technical description gives 20Hz – 20kHz. The 40mm driver claim is stated in feature text and product details. The listing also calls the headset water resistant without giving a resistance rating, so the degree of protection is unconfirmed. Confirm details relevant to your setup before purchase.
