As for isolation, it is on average at best for an over the ear headphones. The ear cups do not help to block environment noises much.
Performance Result
As a gaming headsets, microphone plays an important role as well. And Pulse 7 does a great job here. My voice is loud and clear thanks to high sensitivity mic. Rest assures that your teammates won’t complaint can’t hear you well for sure. And don’t forget that you can fold the mic in when not in use. Great touch no doubt. By the way, below is how the 7 colour lighting with pulsating effects look in totally dark environment. It will cycle through all the 7 colours. Nice and cool effect.
Pulse 7 sound quality is great at its price range. It is more toward extra bass sound signature. But not overloaded and still well in control. In short, you get clear treble and pumping bass here and there. For details… The highs are clear and on the smooth side. No harshness for sure. Mids are decent as well. Vocals are natural for both male and female. At last, bass is punchy yet in control. Soundstage is on average. Instruments placement separation is okay only. Overall, it’s a pleasure to use Pulse 7 for gaming, movie and music…
