Asus audio introduced new gamer headphones from the Republic of Gamers product range, the Asus Rog Fusion II 500. It is a wired gaming headset in the upper middle class and, as befits a new product, also with some exciting innovations, which could be quite useful in everyday gaming. Especially the volume control for the game chat is very comfortable and innovative.
The Asus headphones are equipped with many technical features such as virtual 7.1 surround sound. In addition, there is the ESS 9280 Quad DAC, which ensures lossless audio processing, and the sound remains clear and unadulterated from the lows to the ultra-high tones and the bass.
The microphone is integrated, hidden, and has “AI Noise Cancellation” to ensure interference-free clear voice recording. According to Asus, up to 95% of annoying background noises, such as keyboard or mouse clicks, are filtered out. Other noises from the environment are also suppressed and not transferred to the voice chat.
The Asus ROG Fusion II 500 wired gaming headset support both Discords as well as for TeamSpeak certified and compatible. The real highlight is the intuitive volume control on the earpiece itself. With direct control, gamers can control their in-game audio and voice chat and adapt them optimally to the gameplay. In this way, communication in the game can be regulated and facilitated intuitively and quickly.
Typical for gaming headsets is the control of the integrated RGB lighting via separate software, as in this case via the Armory Crate software. The headset is compatible with all common game consoles such as Playstation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and of course the PC or notebook.
