These replace the Roccat Kave 7.1 headphones that I purchased over half a decade ago. There is no array of multicoloured aux cables with the Kahn AIMO, these connect by USB to provide 7.1 sound, albeit virtually.

Can you hear the difference That's the million dollar question when it comes to this new model in Roccat's RGB-lit range. Boasting 7.1 high-resolution audio support, it can articulate surround sound and sparkling lossless audio at the same time.

When it comes to gaming peripherals, Roccat isn't really a name that I've heard too much of out in the wild. I mean I know of them and have been using many of their accessories for years now, but I still have a lot of friends out there who have never heard of them.

The Khan Aimo is the final piece of Roccat's smart RGB peripheral puzzle – or at least it is so far, anyway.
