With the headset that I received, I would not recommend anyone buy these. Maybe you will have better luck.

They look like a headset; That is all

Volume and clarity on the mic is terrible; Friends now complain about how it sounds to them; They appear like a comfortable headset and looks are deceiving; It soon gets old and with the lack of a good stationary (holding tension) slide position, and becomes very uncomfortable.

Gaming headsets have changed considerably over the past few years. Gaming headsets tended to be bulky, had every option you wanted, and even ones you didn't. Since competitive gaming is really pushing the industry gamers needs have definitely changed and now we are seeing lighter and less...

– Lightweight design; – Ventilated ear cups; – Drivers tuned specifically for gaming; – Price

– No layflat or foldable design; – Bass is lacking

Easy to set up and use, the Renga is a headset from Roccat will suit gamers who want decent quality whilst on a budget. First look is at the box itself. The Renga is an attractive boxed product with high quality images on a slick matte black box.

Summary: Super comfortable, decent build quality and audio which is very good for the price bracket wins the Renga our Value award.

Keeping in mind that I'm comparing this product to similarly-priced gaming headsets, ROCCAT has nailed the acoustics on this new release, meaning it's a dream device for any aspiring FPS professional.

You can't even feel it; The price; The acoustics

A lack of bass; Brittle earcups; Accessories

Recently, we have looked at some innovative and ultimately expensive gaming headsets at KitGuru. Priced at just under £40, the Roccat Renga bucks that trend as it is firmly positioned toward the budget end of the headset spectrum.

Affordable; Lightweight; Supplied y-splitter; Dialogue is crisp

Microphone obstructs your field of view slightly when lowered; Earcup ventilation is not entirely successful; Bass is somewhat lacking

The Roccat Renga is comfortable and uniquely stylish, but its audio performance won't likely blow you away. But then, at $50, it doesn't have to. It's a capable gaming headset that offers good value considering its build quality and included adapter, and while we wouldn't recommend it for serious...

Inexpensive; Good build quality; Attractive design

Mediocre bass and high-frequency response limits appeal for listening to music; Boom mic isn't removable

Roccat isn't the biggest name in gaming peripherals this side of the Atlantic, but the company still offers a wide selection of products, including some very solid picks like the Kova mouse ($54.99 at Amazon) and the Ryos MK Pro keyboard ( at Amazon) . It also makes the Renga, a $49.99 wired gaming headset that works with any device with one or two 3.5mm ports. It's a well-built headset with punchy sound, though middling musical fidelity limits its use outside of playing games. DesignWhile the "studio grade sound" emblazoned on the left earcup is questionable at this price point, the Renga ($99.99 at Amazon) certainly looks and feels inspired by studio monitors more than any sort of gaming accessory. The headset is matte black and angular, with skeletal plastic earcup covers and a thin, sturdy wire headband that suspends a springy, leather-like band under it. The large, circular over-ear cups are made of padded leatherette, and feel comfortable even on larger heads when worn for l...

The Roccat Renga is a simple, stylish gaming headset with a budget-friendly price.

Inexpensive; Good build quality; Attractive design

Mediocre bass and high-frequency response limits appeal for listening to music; Boom mic isn't removable

I wanted to like the Roccat Renga headset. On paper (and out of the box), it seemed like a promising budget headset. It sounds good, it's comfortable, and the price is right. Unfortunately, I kept running into issues.

Lightweight; Comfortable; Decent sound quality

Build quality; No sound isolation; Microphone could be better

I have owned this headset for about 4 months, while being quite comfortable the left earpiece has died on me. Overall the sound quality is not "studio grade" but is very good. I would not recommend this product due to the fact that earpiece died on me.
