Creative Sound Blaster Tactic3D Sigma Review

Gamers looking for a good immersive experience often depend on headphones over speakers. Speakers can be loud, but they're not as accurate as headphones can be, in an online multiplayer arena. Professional gamers also need a good microphone using which...

The Sigma is not as a headphone for music enthusiasts. In fact, they sound way different than the other Creative earphones. For gamers however, it makes better sense. The audio module doesn’t do a lot for the headphone. Quality is decent, maybe a tiny...

Creative Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma

If you are a hardcore gamer, then wearing a headset is nothing new – you've probably had one for years. For those just now getting into the gaming scene, hold onto your pants because there are literally 80 or 90 headsets to choose from, coming from...

Comfortable to wear ; 3D directional audio works well ; Very customizable

Construction is a little flimsy ; Muddy, flat bass ; Software is not included, has to be downloaded

The Creative Sound blaster Tactic 3D Sigma’s have a lot of good things going for them.

Creative Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma

The Creative Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma does exactly what is asked of it

It’s generally difficult to give a 100% accurate conclusion on a gaming headset because there are many things that would normally be termed “bad” for a set of headphones that may not necessarily be “bad” while playing a game. For example, a long cord...

Creative Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma Headset

Creative (Creative Labs) is amongst the very first companies in the PC Industry and for the past 20 years they have been designing and manufacturing some of the best soundcards in the world. A few weeks back we reviewed the latest Creative Sound...

Package May Scratch the Earpieces

Last time i used a headset by Creative was over 2 years ago and it did not have the best price/performance/build quality ratio in the market, to be honest it was quite far from that. The SoundBlaster Tactic 3D Sigma however has everything their old...

Consumer review by: N/A (newegg.com)

Not bad at all

I wanted to find a headset that would be affordable (I'm not the type who's comfortable dropping $100+ on headphones) but still offer good sound. Detachable mic was also a selling point because I was going to be using it for everything, not just games,...

Good, deep sound with lots of options. Comfortable ear pads, solid construction. Detatchable mic is a huge plus

Nothing major; depending on your preferences you might find something, but nothing has really bothered me so far. I'm no audiophile, bear in mind; I just wanted good sound for a good price

nice

I have been using these for a couple of weeks and I can say that they are quite nice. The sound is very good. The fit is good and they are comfortable. My head is kinda big but I believe these would fit a small head well. They seem to be well made. You...

Wonderful

Great Quality, Great Price, Great Buy

These headphones are exceptionally powerful given the price, and the fact that I assume you are using it with the given THX sound device or a high quality audio card. The surround sound works brilliantly and the different character voice overs are one...

None presently. Can get a little heavy after excessive use of 5 hours or so
