The RIG brand, owned by NACON, has unveiled the new full-size R5 MAX HD gaming headphones, targeting competitive shooter enthusiasts. A key feature is the graphene membrane drivers, which the manufacturer claims deliver more precise sound positioning in games.
At the heart of the device are 40mm GrapheneQ drivers from Ora. These offer an extended frequency range and low distortion, promising improved sound detail. The brand emphasizes spatial awareness, a crucial factor in FPS games where pinpointing sound sources can provide a competitive edge.
The design focuses on long-term comfort. The model features soft memory foam ear cups, an adjustable metal headband, and replaceable outer panels. It also includes a detachable modular microphone with a quick-mute flip function and directional recording, ensuring clear voice transmission even in noisy environments.
The package comes with an external USB-C DAC supporting high-resolution audio up to 32-bit/384 kHz. Priced around $150, this positions the headphones in the advanced gaming headset segment.
