Customers find value in the 800LX Marathon Wireless Gaming Headset's superior sound quality and comfortable design, frequently praising its long battery life and lightweight feel. Many appreciate the inclusion of Dolby Atmos and the wireless functionality. However, some users noted that the bass could be improved and that there were occasional connection issues reported by a few customers.
I bought these for myself as a Christmas gift after going through the Corsair HS60 and Hyper X Cloud 2. I wasn't really looking for wireless but thought I'd give these a shot. I am very picky with things I get for my PC gaming. Using these with my custom Windows 10 PC! The comfort and sound is a must with headphones. These are a 10/10 in comfort and 9/10 in sound! They are very light and super plush on ears. My wife said "WOW it's like having a cloud on your head" and I totally agree. The Dolby Atmos sound is absolutely AMAZING. Once you hear it in games or movies you will never want anything else. Comes with a code for 2 year Dolby Atmos subscription. These were on sale and well well worth the hundred bucks. If you are looking for a amazing pair of headphones pick these up, you will not be disappointed. Some Features- -The mic flips up and makes a little beep to let you know its muted and it's also detachable. -When powered on the headset will tell you "Power on, Battery high/medium/low and connected/not connected" -Controls on the back for volume, seperate knob for chat/game sound and a power/sync button, charge port is also on same side. -Adjustable soft stretchable headband -Super soft ear cups. -Built in very long lasting battery. Dont have any complaints at this time!

The Rig 800LXs are the unicorn of headsets! They work WIRELESSLY on both Xbox One & PS4!!!! I returned my JBL Quantum 800s in disappointment and picked up the Rig 800LXs. The Rigs don’t have the flash, bells and whistles that the JBLs have but they get the job done. They paired instantly when I connected them to my Xbox One. To work w/PS4, plug the Wireless Base (WB) into your PS4, flip the switch on the WB to PC then power up your console. I did not get sound and chat until I went into —> Settings —>Devices —> Audio Devices —> Output to Headphones —> select All Audio, and BAM! Now you have headsets that work on XB1 & PS4. (Added note plug the WB in to the PS4 before you power it on. If you switch back to a console & the headset is not getting sound, power off the console then power it back on) I gave these a 5 star rating just for having true wireless connection on multiple systems; XB1, PS4, PC & Mac (tried them on my iMac) These headsets do come up short in some areas. The “noise canceling mic” picks up my ceiling fan. I ordered a windscreen, hopefully that will help. And there is no bluetooth. *Unfortunately when using w/PS4 I was not able to use the headset volume wheel. To control the headset volume I had to go back in to settings & use the volume control in Audio Devices. And the chat mixer does not function. If someone finds a fix/work around, let me know. Though they are made entirely of plastic they seem very sturdy. The headsets are extremely light and comfortable but the ear cups don’t swivel, which would have added extra comfort and convenience. They sound really good. Playing Modern Warfare I was able to hear footsteps and pick up directional cues on the enemies position. Then I watched a movie, Xmen Apocalypse, with THX enabled. They did a great job. All that said, if you play on both XB1 & PS4 these headsets are a Best Buy (shameless plug) for your console.

I’m a audio person. I own several headphones for gaming, music, and movies. I have spent thousand of dollars on headsets. Including turtle beach, Astro, vmoda, Razr, and more. I can honestly say that none of them can compare to this headset. So I feel I got a good judgement on rating these products and give you a honest review. With that being said this headset is the best headset for the price that’s on the market. Super comfortable and I can game all day with no discomfort. The sound is top notch from the crips clear clean highs and mids to the heavy lows. No distortion and they get loud! Sound is better than what I expected for the price. Durability seems to be great as well. The best part is battery life. For a wireless headset these have excellent battery life and charging speeds. No lag and no disconnections. The Dolby Atmos Surround is mind blowing good. I can honestly say that this headset is nearly perfect! I rate it a full 5 stars. Haven’t found any cons or any problems. If you’re looking for a headset and read this review don’t look any further! Just buy this headset and you will thank yourself for doing so.
