![]() One song that benefited from the brighter sound was Nano’s “Kemurikusa,” as the song opens to soft vocals and higher-pitched sound effects. However, the vocals are bright and the rest of the bassier percussion sounded fine. The opening synthetic beats were way off, sounding like a mere shallow representation of the original. The vocals were full and crisp, however, the bassy sound effects that trickle throughout the song were blown out, which would’ve been averted if the bass was rounded out.Ĭoming from my Sony WH-1000XM3, I noticed a dramatic shift in bass when I listened to Nico Collins’ “Alone.” (To be clear, I am not making a direct comparison with a $300 product, as I don’t expect the Arctis 9X to sound as good). ![]() In Kailee Morgue’s cover of “Black Sheep,” the opening bass guitar sounded lighter than I expected, but the bass was still thick, although wasn’t pronounced. However, the bass is definitely too soft for my preferences. Listening to music via the Arctis 9X was relatively satisfying, as it was good at highlighting the lows, mids and highs enough to give each instrument its own spotlight. With the Arctis 9X, I could tell where my little robot friend was at all times, as I could hear their metallic pitter-patters behind me or to the side of me. However, the weapons would've sounded more deadly with more bass. Firing my sci-fi plasma weapons (is it plasma? I don't know) emitted a pleasant pulsating sound. In ReCore: Definitive Edition, the low electric guitar, elevating violins and rumbling percussion threw me into the action, as each instrument stood out. However, the arrows occasionally produced a piercing sound a little too sharp for my ears. Laying into fools with a simple Rusty Sword delivered a rich slashy sound, while my Beginner's Bow provided some meaty piercing noises. The acoustic guitar that followed was lively, as the highs and mids were highlighted, but the drums in the background were a little too low. However, the sound of a crossbow being loaded delivered a satisfyingly thick sound.ĭuring Dead Cells, the first sound I was greeted with was the thick wet slap of my mushy body hitting the bridge at the very beginning of the game. The sound effects of the cards hitting the table and enacting special effects weren't as bass heavy as I expected. In Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales, Meve's bright voice was complemented by the melodic stringed instruments that play throughout The Witcher series.
