Relatively rich audio performance is assured by the 40mm Neodymium drivers, while the low-latency design and noise-cancelling microphone gives gamers good speech delivery. It's also a neat solution for online chat and Internet phone calls - the one-touch controls are optimised for Windows Live Messenger and Skype. The ear cups are a bit small too though, and don't fully surround your ears. The biggest selling feature of the HS-1200 is that it's wireless and very good for VoIP sessions. Gamers that require voice communication will also benefit. The microphone performs well and does a good job of blocking out outside noise. However, it's a different story for audio playback. Sound quality is average (bass in particularly is muddy) and the bundled software equalisers and filters don't add much. The EAX effects effectively add location-sensitive modifications to sound and X-Fi CMSS-3D makes sounds a bit more immersive, but it?s no audio revelation.

Creative's wireless take on the world of wireless gaming sound hits a lot of strong spots (weight, comfort, ease of use, surround options with OpenAL), but still needs work in some areas and is not a good general-use replacement. Recommended, but with some caveats.
