Tech-com SSD-HPW-210Wireless Headset

We plugged the headset in, and started basic test audio tracks to see how low and high the speakers can output, frequencywise. The bass goes down to about 40 Hz, and highs are there up to 18 kHz, but not too smooth a response. The mids are a bit too much, they are on the verge of jarring due to its sharpness.The volume is not the loudest, as expected from the specs, though at max levels on Foobar/Winamp we get a powerful enough sound, with the added advantage of the acoustic isolation this unit provides. When using the headset, we could satisfactorily eliminate outside sounds. There is no real distortion, and that is a plus point, as cheaper systems by more reputed brands distort badly at high volume levels.The wireless audio sound is not bad; it works well as there was not much audio drop outs in our room. At least about 15 m away we could still hear clearly. The main thing to see was high frequency response, which in our case was not too shrill much to my relief, as I was fearing it. The bass does not boom, that’s good, though again here mid frequencies are a fallback, they’re too forward for my taste.
ConclusionThe unit comes at MRP Rs. 899 and MOP of Rs. 500, so we have a nice 'below 1000 rupee' product for the budget conscious. Frequency response is not conducive to music listening, due to very forward mids, though the product performs wirelessly pretty well. The build quality is not the greatest though, so one must get accustomed to the fact that the headset might falter couple of years later, otherwise it’s a good product for basic wireless usage, especially if budget is a concern.
