Tt eSPORTS Level 10M Headset Review

We were very excited to see if the innovative design of the Level 10M headset improved comfort over competing models, however we were a little disappointed.  The extensive use of metal in the construction of the headset makes it very heavy indeed and the design of the headband is such that it doesn't help to distribute the mass across your head.

Tt eSPORTS have integrated a locking mechanism into the headband which lets you secure it at your preferred setting.  This is advantageous as it means you don't have to adjust the headband every time you put the headset on.

The earpads are covered in faux-leather which looks and feels exclusive.  The foam padding within feels quite dense, though, which makes you very aware of their presence during use. The earpads fit tightly around your ears, offering a degree of passive noise cancellation.

There isn't anything particularly special about the acoustic performance of the Level 10M headset however it offers a similar experience to other gaming headsets in this price bracket.

During our music playback tests, we found that the sound balance was fairly even, with less of an emphasis on the lower registers as many gaming headsets.  This makes the headset well suited to a wide range of music genres.  For example we found it performed much better than competing headsets when playing the likes of Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 where the sound was perfectly balanced and both the treble and bass notes were rendered with almost perfect clarity.

Moving on to our movie playback tests, we found that the sound balance was generally well suited to most titles, although we would generally prefer a slight bias towards the lower registers as it helps to create a more immersive experience.

The lack of sound-panning was also noticeable when compared to a virtual surround sound headset.

We had a similar experience to mobile playback with gaming performance where we would have preferred a slight bias towards the lower registers to amplify the presence of explosions and gunshots.  We would have also appreciated a greater degree of sound-panning – that would only be offered by virtual or dedicated surround sound.
