Consumer electronics vendor Mad Catz has launched a new stereo gaming headset for the Xbox 360, called the Trigger.

Distributed by Enta in the UK, the headset includes precision balanced 40mm neodymium drivers and an in- line audio controller allowing gamers to separately adjust volume and in-game chat levels, and includes all cables necessary to connect to any Xbox 360.

The microphone can be bent into a position that's optimal for picking up the user’s voice. The design also allows the mic to fold up and out of the way when not in use.

The set has a padded, adjustable headrail which extends an extra 1.25 inches on either side to accommodate a wide range of head sizes and features soft, pliable earcups which swivel to provide a comfortable around-the-neck resting position.

A dial on the in-line audio controller can cancel in-game chatter from other players, while game volume can be adjusted separately.

Darren Richardson, the president and chief executive officer of Mad Catz Interactive stated: “The Trigger is the second of our co-branded headsets to be released for the Xbox 360 and we are excited to bring high quality professional gaming audio to a mass market consumer in time for the holiday season.”
