Geek Grotto

Like most people this time of year, I've been traveling to visit family. Also like most, a set of headphones is a must for long plane rides. My current phone is the Razer Phone, which also means carrying Razer's USB-C dongle which contains a 24 bit THX certified DAC. Sure, that may not mean much since Razer owns THX, but keep reading. As of firmware 5.0, the Nintendo Switch could pass audio via its USB-C port. Most people have used this for wireless USB headsets. Now what happens when you're aren't paying attention and just plug your headphones with dongle attached to the Switch's USB-C port? Pure audio bliss, that's what. Deeper, more vibrant audio. I just tried with Ys VIII and the recently released R-type and wow. Switching between the Razer dongle and the Switch's headphone jack was night and day. If you use a wired headset, even a cheap set, this will most definitely improve your audio quality. If interested, the dongle can be found here for $19.99...

We have had these on our heads for a few months now and enjoy them tremendously. Are they the most perfect sounding headsets on the market? Will they work for all people all the time? Are they worth your money? Find out an more after the break!

While running around from booth to booth at CES we caught a glimpse of Wicked Audio. While I am not familiar with the company, they were more than happy to let us play around with their headphones! Read more after the jump!
