description
Get Your F.R.E.Q. On
Put the game on your ears with Mad Catz' F.R.E.Q. 5 Stereo Gaming Headset for PC and Mac. With premium-quality 50mm drivers, intuitively placed on-ear controls, and a detachable noise-canceling microphone, the F.R.E.Q. 5 keeps your gaming sessions well-equipped for extended listening comfort.
Powerful Stereo Sound
Housing oversize speakers which pump out robust stereo sound with a wide dynamic range, the comfortable, spacious earcups provide clean and clear audio reproduction. Previously hidden details in your game's audio soundscape will enrich your immersion and enhance your gameplay like never before. The skillfully engineered earcup design also helps block out distractions like excessive teammate chatter so you can focus on playing at your best.
Precision-Balanced, Extra Large 50mm Drivers with Neodymium Magnets
Utilizing the highest quality drivers are available for use in commercial headsets - Neodymium - the F.R.E.Q. 5 Stereo Gaming Headset feeds high-fidelity audio through a pair of amplified 50mm speakers for deep bass and crisp undisorted highs.
Tough Yet Lightweight Metal Components
Built to the same exacting standards as the award-winning Mad Catz R.A.T. and constructed to survive the stress of LAN tournaments, the F.R.E.Q. 5 couples comfort with sturdiness to accommodate extended gaming session.
Lightweight metal components provide ample adjustability to give you a customized fit - and the cans even fold flat to support an around-the-neck resting position - all while bringing a level durability previously unheard of in PC gaming headsets.
Detachable Noise-Canceling Microphone with Illuminated Mute Notification
When not using to the mic to communicate with your online teammates, a headset's microphone only gets in the way. Problem solved with the Mad Catz F.R.E.Q. 5's removable solution - it provides the freedom to use the mic only when necessary. And when gaming in loud environments, advanced noise cancelation stifles ambient sounds to ensure your conversations are crystal-clear.
Toggling the microphone mute button prevents your teammates from hearing anything you don't want them to, and red LED illumination in the tip of the detachable mic will never make you wonder whether or not they can hear you.
Easy to Locate On-Ear Controls
Intuitive placement of all controls provides simple adjustability without the need to remove the headset. Mute the mic, tweak the volume, and toggle equalizer settings all while keeping your eyes on your monitor.
Compatible with MP3 Players and Smartphones
Use the headset's handy quick-release connector to instantly gain MP3 player compatibility and convert the Mad Catz F.R.E.Q. 5 into portable headphones. Just swap out its USB cord for the included 3.5mm audio cable and then plug directly into your device. And if you have a smartphone*, you can even take voice calls using the microphone.
* Supports Apple iPhone, BlackBerry, and HTC handsets

Best Headset i have owned
Worth every cent. From the moment I got the headset out of the box, I had a feeling of quality. The materials are sturdy, there is no "plastic feeling" as with so many others.
The sound is crisp with a deep bass, very good for everything, music, movies, gaming and VOIP (Skype, teamspeak etc.). The mic records more clear than anything i have heard from other high end headsets i have tried.
The earpads are big enough to surround my ears and comfortable enough for many hours of gaming :)
The only downside is the "EQ" butten, which you can press by accident, and have to scroll the different settings back to normal. But once getting used to the headset it is barely noticable anymore.
To sum up, I have been very satisfied with the headset so far and i can only encourage others to get it. I hope you will be as satisfied with it, as I am!
