Logitech has introduced two new headphones for audiophile gamers, the Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum Wireless Gaming Headset and the Logitech G633 Artemis Spectrum Gaming Headset.
The headphones are customizable, feature RGB lighting, swappable backlit speaker plates, and programmable G-keys. Logitech gaming software enables users to customize audio settings, create personal sound profiles, and easily save EQ (for the G933 Artemis Spectrum only). The patent pending Pro-G audio drivers are made with hybrid mesh materials that deliver clean and accurate highs as well as a deep rich bass.
The Logitech G633 and G933 offer Dolby and DTS Headphone:X surround options to gamers. The Pro-G drivers and surround sound technologies create lifelike in-game spatial awareness. DTS Headphone:X technology supports up to 7.1 channels of audio and multiple options for personalization. DTS Headphone:X support will be available through a Logitech gaming software update in early October.
The Logitech G633 and G933 both work with PCs, mobile devices, and consoles, including PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Logitech G633 features one USB connection and one analog input that connects and mixes sound from up to two devices, while the Logitech G933 features one USB mix adapter and two analog inputs that connect and mixes sound from up to three devices.
Additionally, the Logitech G933 works with home theater systems (via a USB port and RCA audio out) and allows users to listen to all media connected to the home receiver or TV. Use the Logitech gaming software to program lighting, audio, and buttons. Adjust RGB lighting from up to 16.8 million colors and assign custom game macros on three programmable G-keys.
The Logitech G633 is a wired gaming headphone, while the Logitech G933 offers the option to play wired or wirelessly, with ultra-low latency on 2.4GHz wireless. †
“We saw that no one was really building a pair of high quality headphones for gamers,” says Ujesh Desai, vice president and general manager of the Logitech gaming business. “So we challenged our audio team to see if they could do it. I’m a gamer and a musician,†so I was really excited when the team came back with a design that delivered.”
The Logitech G633 Artemis Spectrum Gaming Headset is expected to be available at retailers beginning in September 2015 for a suggested retail price of $149.99. Priced at $199.99, the Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum Wireless Gaming Headset is expected to be available beginning in October 2015.
