Introduction
Today we test and review the BitFenix FLO headset. A regular version is put to the test in an extensive review here at Guru3D. The stereo headset comes with nice 40mm NeoDymium drivers. Available at a fairly cheap price and four colors this set might be just what the doctor ordered, as they are sounding really nice and offer comfortable wear as well. The BitFenix FLO headset is a somewhat regular stereo headset, but has been optimized in many ways to give it that BitFenix niche, and granted that works out pretty well.
