Plantronics Plans line of PC headsets
Posted by Christophor SuperGuido Rick, 99 days ago Aug 29, 2008 06:23

The Plantronics GameCom 777 features Dolby Headphone and Dolby Pro Logic(R) II technologies in a plug-and-play USB sound card that digitally processes sound for immersive audio. Similar to its application in high-performance home theater systems, Dolby Pro Logic II, processes high-quality stereo (two-channel) (redundant with above) audio into five channels of full-bandwidth surround sound.

In addition to its surround sound capabilities, the GameCom 777 was engineered with numerous functional and ergonomic wearing benefits. Features include a unique ’hide-away’ boom designed to tuck into the headband and turn the headset into a pair of high-quality headphones for music and multimedia use. A telescoping, noise-canceling microphone provides more accurate positioning for voice clarity. And in-line volume and microphone mute controls provide gamers fingertip audio and voice direction.

As well as multi-directional Dolby virtual surround sound, the GameCom 777 delivers rich bass for a truly immersive gaming experience. A one-step USB 2.0/1.1 makes connection truly plug and play, versus competitive products requiring lengthy software downloads and bulky control boxes.

    A Complete Lineup of PC Headsets

Alongside the GameCom 777, Plantronics is introducing two analog PC headsets -- the GameCom 367(R) and GameCom 377(R) PC headsets. All three GameCom headsets are built of lightweight materials and feature specialized earpods to redistribute pressure for maximum comfort. Each headset offers the ’hide-away’ boom, a telescoping, noise-canceling microphone and in-line volume and microphone mute controls. Cables are made of durable reinforced materials to withstand frequent wear and tear and abuse by gamers.

The complete line of new Plantronics’ PC gaming headsets includes the GameCom 777 Surround Sound Gaming Headset with Dolby technology (ESP $99.99), the GameCom 377 Open Ear Gaming Headset (ESP $49.99), and the GameCom 367 Closed-Ear Gaming Headset (ESP $39.99).

Each GameCom headset is compatible for VoIP internet programs such as Skype, Windows Live, and Yahoo! Messenger.

The GameCom 777, GameCom 367 and GameCom 377 headsets will be available in September at http://www.plantronics.com and at select retailers.
