All Hail the Ozone Spark Gaming Headset

I can't tell you how relieved I am.  It's not every day that I catch up with friends on Skype, Ventrilo or the rest, but it's most days.

Last night, it felt like I was pressing my snotty nose up a cold glass window.  All of my friends were in that chat, hanging out, socializing, discussing wonderful things, and going on raids. 

I couldn't.  I'd accidentally destroyed my headset; and now nobody could hear a word that I said.

I had no-one to blame but myself.  I'd recently built a brand, new computer, which involved a lot of crawling around under desks, as these things usually do. 

Along the way, there was an almighty BANG, as I shifted a computer table.  At the time, I was mostly just glad that it had been the floor and not my head in the way of the falling headset.  But compounding matters by not moving it, before I landed the desk on it, was probably an error.

In truth, I wasn't worried.  I've been using my Ozone Spark Gaming Headset for years and it is very robust.  It has to be with me around, because I deliver some terrible abuse to my audio equipment. 

I have a large box which is pretty much a graveyard for dead gaming headphones.  I keep them in case I have to cannibalize old ones to make newer ones work.   Half of them are stuck together with duct tape.

This has NEVER happened to my Ozone Spark headphones.  They have survived everything but this latest episode.  Even then, it was only the microphone which died!

Often it's the little things which cause you to favor one gaming headset over another. 

For me, the moment when glee flipped over into love was when I needed to turn the light on mid-fight.

The cable on the Ozone Spark is very long.  I've never measured it, as most of the time its length is hidden behind my desk.  The box is telling me that it's over 2.5m (8.2ft). 

Either way it's plenty long enough for me to leap up out of my seat, and reach the room's light-switch, without losing momentary communication with my friends.

Things like that are quite important, when you've got bosses on the prowl.

Of course, there's much more to the Ozone Spark headset than that.  The way that it folds practically flat is what most people would point to as a highlight. It makes it perfect for shoving into a laptop bag.

As I've indicated above, its sturdy, robust build is another definite point in its favor for me.  I've never once had to reach for the duct tape to hold it together.

Plus there is another huge, absolutely massive factor in my life.  I am completely deaf in my right ear.  I have certain needs in any gaming headset; primarily the ability to cancel out all external noise, in order to concentrate on the important sounds.

Like my friends yelling for food and healing, while the pixel predator looms.

Ozone Spark Gaming Headset has never let me down on that score.  I sometimes think that I can hear better on-line through it, than I can in real life!  And this is the reason that I will keep on returning to it time and time again, until Ozone stop manufacturing it.

(I should add that there is a slight downside, amongst all of the benefits here.  I find that when I type, the inline controller hovers near to my keyboard.  As there is a second microphone there, my friends are suddenly deafened by my typing.

First world problems.)
