Highest sound quality with built-in DAC
Compared to headphones, gaming headsets are often considered inferior in terms of sound quality, but the "ROG Delta White Edition" is thoroughly focused on the sound aspect.
The ROG Delta White Edition is equipped with a Hi-Fi grade ESS 9218 Quad DAC that supports high-resolution audio, and it utilizes the processing power of each of the four DACs to perform lossless processing of audible frequencies from low, mid, and high frequencies to ultra-high frequencies.
The four signals are then combined to reproduce clearer sound with an SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) of 127dB. The result is a stunning sound that surpasses that of ordinary headsets and headphones.
SNR is especially important in FPS games, which are mainstream in the world of e-sports.
The "ROG Delta White Edition" with its 127dB SNR can not only judge the distance between opponents based on the sound of their footsteps and other subtle sounds, but also reproduce the sound of gunfire and explosions with powerful sound, giving the user a realistic experience of being on the battlefield. The Hyper-Grounding technology
Hyper-Grounding Technology
ROG's proprietary "Hyper-Grounding" technology uses a multi-layer PCB and special layout design to prevent electromagnetic interference and achieve pure, noise-free sound.
Hyper-Grounding allows the high-end performance gaming headset with the aforementioned ESS 9218 Quad DAC and RGB lighting to reach its full potential.
"ASUS Essence Driver" for even more advanced performance
The ROG Delta White Edition features the unique "ASUS Essence Driver" with Audio Signal Diversion technology. This "ASUS Essence Driver" is more advanced than its predecessors.
A circular wall separating high, low, and mid frequencies reduces interference between frequency ranges, resulting in purer, clearer audio.
Drivers with a wide frequency response of 20-40 kHz deliver surprisingly powerful bass and optimized gaming sound.
"360° RGB Lighting" to express your own style
The ROG Delta White Edition features AURA RGB Lighting, which can be customized to your liking.
The ROG Delta White Edition is the world's first gaming headset with rainbow-colored 360° RGB lighting.
The headset features over 16.8 million color combinations and six presets to choose from: "Always on", "Fade in/out", "Flashing", "Color changing", "Rainbow" and "Flashing with music". You can choose from six presets of light patterns to express your own style.
ASUS Aura Sync technology is also included, allowing users to synchronize the light pattern with other Aura-compatible products.
Pursuing ease of use and comfort
ROG Delta White Edition is not only about sound and lighting, but also about user-friendliness and comfort.
USB Type-C terminal
The ROG Delta White Edition uses a USB Type-C connector instead of a 3.5mm connector. It also comes with a USB-C to USB 2.0 (Type-A) adapter so that it can be used with devices that do not have a USB Type-C connector.
It can be directly connected to not only PCs and game consoles, but also to recent smartphones that do not have a 3.5mm port, allowing users to enjoy high quality sound anytime, anywhere.
and enjoy high-quality sound anytime, anywhere.
Unique ear cup design
While most headsets have circular or oval earcups, the ROG Delta White Edition features ergonomically designed D-shaped earcups.
This reduces the unnecessary contact area by up to 20%, which increases comfort, especially when wearing the headset for long periods of time.
The drivers in the earcups are tilted at a 12° angle to match the natural angle of the human ear.
This not only makes the headset more comfortable to wear, but also improves sound quality by allowing audio signals to flow directly into the ear canal.
The ROG Delta White Edition comes with two types of ear pads.
The 2.5cm thick "Hybrid Ear Cushions" combine protein leather and mesh to create thick ear pads with excellent moisture absorption and fit.
The 1.9cm thick "protein leather cushions" are thin and soft. The clean and stylish appearance makes them suitable for use on the go.
It is also attractive to be able to choose the type of cushion that best fits your needs and the situation in which you will be using them.
The left ear cup has controls for volume up/down and microphone mute, and an on/off button for RGB lighting.
The minimal but frequently used controls are located in easy-to-use positions, which not only makes them easy to use but also does not detract from the design.
Clear condenser microphone
As a gaming headset, there is of course no compromise on the microphone.
It is equipped with a detachable unidirectional boom microphone.
Not only is it a clear, sensitive, and low-noise microphone, but the indicator at the end of the boom lights up red when the microphone is muted, allowing the user to check the microphone status at a glance.
