A Closer Look – Elite Pro Tournament Headset


The headset is pretty big, but comes very well packaged with all the required accessories and the usual documentation.

In the box, you’ll find a simple 4-pole cable which is perfect for use on consoles or mobile devices, as well as a nice flexible boom microphone.

The headset looks fairly unassuming, but fool not, this thing is packing a fair few features. The design is a welcome break from the often purposely gaudy gaming headsets we so often see, and while they’re fine too, this looks a little more professional with its matte finishes and I guess sort of industrial look.

The headband design is quite interesting, with several stages that allow for adjustment to the overall size and fit of the headset at the ear cup, the pivot joint, as well as the headband.

The headband has a level of self-adjustment that helps cushion the weight on springs mounted into the side of the headband, but also features a durable adjustment system on each side, allowing you to tweak the range.

There’s a good range of movement to it, allowing a comfortable fit for a wide range of head sizes, but there are more options still to cover!

The ear cups can be folded inward, which is great for wearing the headset around your neck between games, but it also allows you to adjust the fit on the side of your head, ensuring you get a nice clean fit over your ears.

As if that wasn’t enough, there’s a second headband adjustment area directly above the earcups; here it is at its stock settings.

Or you can slide it out to suit your needs; here it is fully extended. With this, the pivot and the headband adjustment, you should be able to get a perfect fit for any head shape or size, something that’s rarely found on a single headset and a feature that cannot be underestimated.

Comfort gets dialed to 11 when you see the ear pads too, which are easily the deepest cushions we’ve seen to date, with soft memory foam treated leather that fits around your ears with the brute force of a wispy cloud on a summer day; ok maybe not that light, but I’ll be damned if it’s not some of the most comfortable padding on the market today.

The soft padding is very nice, but with the leather sides it helps ensure that each ear cup creates a clean fit around your ear, blocking out ambient noise and locking in the audio from the headset, giving you a much punchier bass response.

And there’s even more soft memory foam padding on the inner ear band; I’m sure you get it now, the headset is comfortable!

DSC_9316

Tucked into the left ear cup, you’ll find a hard-wired short cable for hooking up your required connector cable, as well as a small jack for the detachable microphone.

Plug in the included cable and the orange highlights of the cable show through the side, showing you that the cable is fully locked into place.

DSC_9320

The microphone plugs in easily enough and can be rotated 360-degree, and benefitting from a flexible boom.

DSC_9321

The in-line controller on the included cable is pretty simple, but with a volume control and microphone mute, you’re unlikely to need much else mid game.
