Introduction

eDimensional has been in the business of creating gaming-related hardware and software since 2000. Since the release of their flagship product - the E-D 3D Gaming System, they have since branched out into other gaming accessories. They now have products in the following categories :

• 3D Hardware and Software
• Voice Recognition
• Motion Tracking
• Force Feedback

Today, we are going to take a look at their new Force Feedback products - the eDimensional AudioFX Force Feedback Gaming Headset.

This gaming headset is more than just a pair of headphones with a microphone attached. It actually features a built-in subwoofer that converts low frequency sounds into vibrations for a more immersive experience. That's the premise for labelling it as a Force Feedback headset.

Let's check our what eDimensional has to say about their latest product :

Same high quality audio performance, tons more features, amazingly low price!
Crystal clear stereo sound and so much more! The E-D Audio FX headset is a high quality full-ear unit with a microphone certified for superior voice recognition and noise cancellation. That's just the beginning. Bass-boosting force feedback built right into the headset gives you the complete immersive experience.

Increased situational awareness with directional sound.
The Audio FX reproduces sound effects to give a sense of three-dimensional space, actually improving your game play! Literally feel your enemy's footsteps approaching and intensifying or the rumble of engines and explosions with powerful amplified bass vibrations. A special feature of the AudioFX utilizes positional audio, meaning explosions to your right will feel amplified to your right side compared to your left side. Situational awareness is dramatically improved.

The human ear cannot hear anything below 20-25Hz but other frequencies can be "felt" as vibrations. If you've ever watched movies on a powerful home theater system then you know that bass is often times more a "feeling" than a "hearing" sensation. The Audio FX's bass amplifier interprets frequencies below 20Hz and transforms them into vibrations that we can feel through the headphone earpiece. Advanced transducers located in the earpieces convert these low frequencies into real vibrations to be felt for the most realistic and immersive sound experience ever.

Get the home theater experience without waking up the neighborhood.
Enjoy PC gaming, music and movies with home theater quality sound and bass, all in your own private listening environment! The plush cushioning ensures ultimate comfort for hours at a time.

Bonus LEDs
As a bonus feature, the Audio FX has LED level meters that light up on either side so everyone nearby knows that high intensity gaming is taking place. Perfect for showing off at LAN events, it's like a custom mod in a headset!

The E-D Audio FX connects to any PC and requires no batteries. The unit is fully size-adjustable and fits any head. The in-line controller lets you adjust both volume and vibration with ease. Requires one USB port for lights and force feedback and is plug and play.

Those are very impressive PR-talk. We will have to see if the eDimensional AudioFX is really as fantastic as they make it out to be.
