Sony DR-GA500 Audio System Review



With all of the different kinds of headsets we discuss on MLG, Sony is a brand that is rarely mentioned. While Sony has a strong line of audiophile and consumer grade headphones, it hasn’t really stepped into the world of gaming audio until now. I’m a long time user of Sony electronics. At MLG events, I use Sony MDR7505’s to manage Tekken 6’s stream audio, so I was excited when Sony announced the DR-GA500. Truth be told, at first glance, I thought it was going to be in the same price range as higher end headsets like Beyerdynamic MMX300’s/Sennheiser PC360’s/QPad QH-1339’s. Much to my surprise, the Sony DR-GA500 was reasonably priced at 80 dollars for the headset only (dubbed as the GA200) and 200 for the headset/decoder system (dubbed as the GA500 system). With a strong brand reputation and a competitive price to boot, how does this headset stack up with the competition? Read below to find out....
