the z6a broke after 8 or 9 months usage, apparently a design defect



If you can see the single screw above the R swivel point, this basically holds the plastic extension cover to the frame and works to reinforce it.

In the original design, the screw would work its way loose with flex and eventually the entire swivel would snap from extension



The new revision utilises 2 screws

I bought a COD turtle-beach headset. The best one I ever had. 5.1 plus crystal audio. I don't use it now because I only need it when it is late and people are a sleep. Grown out of those days though. It just adornes my large PC Games collection now. But Turtle Beach are the best I've had for headphones. I would prolly use it again if I got back into L4D series for the multiplayer chat thing, but that series has been out there for a while with nothing doing.
