A gaming headset cannot make you “hear 20% faster.” What it can do is provide stable game audio, useful positional cues, a clear microphone and a connection that matches your console or PC. RIG's current lineup uses several different wireless designs, so platform fit comes first.
Current RIG families: 900 MAX adds dual wireless with Bluetooth and a charging base; 800 PRO uses dedicated 2.4 GHz wireless with a base station; 700 PRO is a lighter essential wireless tier; 600 PRO combines USB-C wireless with Bluetooth.
| Family | Wireless approach | Best reason to consider it |
|---|---|---|
| 900 MAX | Dedicated gaming wireless + Bluetooth | Dual-device flexibility and charging base |
| 800 PRO | 2.4 GHz USB wireless | Docking base and console/PC variants |
| 700 PRO | Dedicated wireless | Lighter, simpler wireless tier |
| 600 PRO | USB-C wireless + Bluetooth 5.1 | Console/PC gaming plus mobile Bluetooth |
900 MAX: Dual Wireless
RIG lists the 900 MAX family with dual wireless connectivity including Bluetooth and a charging base. Platform licensing matters, so select the Xbox or PlayStation/PC version that matches your system.
800 PRO: Base-Station Focus
The 800 PRO series uses a dedicated USB wireless adapter and charging base. RIG lists 24-hour battery life for this family and separates PC/Mac, Xbox and PlayStation variants.
600 PRO: Flexible USB-C Plus Bluetooth
RIG lists 600 PRO with a USB-C adapter for dedicated game wireless and Bluetooth 5.1 for mobile use. That is useful when one headset must move between a console/PC and a phone.
