Introduction

The $80/€71 AQIRYS Sirius Pro is the highest end wired gaming headset the company currently offers. It's built around the same design principles as the recently reviewed Andromeda Pro—their flagship gaming headset—but uses USB and 3.5 mm analog connectivity instead of 2.4 GHz wireless. As such, it supports virtually all desktop and mobile gaming platforms, with the idea that you'll use the 3.5 mm analog connection for PS4/PS5, Xbox One, and mobile devices, and USB for PC, though of course you could alternatively use the 3.5 mm connection with most PCs. The detachable cable is terminated with a 3.5 mm plug, and it comes bundled with a small USB sound card attached to a 50-centimeter cable.



Besides connectivity, in most other ways the Sirius Pro is identical to the Andromeda Pro. It features the same oversized 53-millimeter titanium-film speaker drivers, swappable ear pads, and detachable TeamSpeak-certified microphone. Its blue-on-black color scheme is a notable change from the all-black Andromeda Pro, but the overall aesthetic is instantly recognizable. It clearly draws "inspiration" from the design originally introduced by QPAD and popularized by HyperX through their Cloud headset lineup. It's a universally liked design, so there's absolutely nothing wrong with AQIRYS's decision to adopt it for the best wired headset in their catalog.

The Package

Much like the AQIRYS Andromeda Pro, the Sirius Pro is packed in a hefty, well-painted box that shows the headset from all sides and lists its key features and technical specifications in multiple languages. The packaging offers excellent protection for both the headset and the supplied accessories.


Here's everything you'll find inside. Alongside the headset, you get a 1.8-meter analog audio cable with 4-pole (TRRS) connectors on both ends and an in-line remote, a 50 cm USB cable with an in-line sound card, a detachable microphone, a cloth carrying pouch, and the usual paperwork. Compared to the Andromeda Pro, AQIRYS omitted the additional pair of cloth ear pads, so you're only getting the factory-attached pleather ones.
