Sony Platinum Wireless Headset for PS4 Review

There are a handful of wireless headsets designed for the PlayStation 4, all varying in quality and features. Sony had already designed a PLAYSTATION 4 VR HEADSET set for their own console in the Gold wireless headset, but they’ve upped the ante with the Platinum iteration. The new headset offers virtual 7.1 surround sound, a redesigned frame, and customizable audio settings. Let’s break down the Platinum Wireless Headset’s design, features, and sound quality to see if it’s worthy of the $160 price tag
Design and Ergonomics

The sleek polished aluminum band along the top of the frame feels sturdy. The thick rubber headband just under the frame rests easy on your head, and the headset’s flexibility makes it easy to slip on and off. The rest of the housing is made of plastic. The earcups slide along the inside of the frame to adjust for fitment and elbows are situated just above the earcups that allow you to fold the headset inward. Though it doesn’t fold symmetrically, it becomes compact enough to store conveniently. A small travel pouch comes packaged and allows you to easily take the headset on the go. Overall, the minimalist design is aesthetically pleasing and solidly built.




The leather upholstery would indicate that the ear pads are thick, but the padding only goes in about half as deep. The firm padding provides adequate comfort, but it should be noted that the headset tends to clamp over your head fairly tight. Regardless, it was comfortable enough to wear during a two-hour session for testing. Leather slightly limits breathability, so it may get warm inside the headset, but the ear pads don’t create a perfect seal which helps alleviate this issue. The inner audio drivers have a slanted contour, which are supposed to align flush to the user’s ears. The problem is that everyone has different shaped and sized ears, and bigger ears may press up against the inner drivers. This can cause discomfort of varying degrees. As a consequence, the ergonomics of the Platinum headset will differ from user to user.




The USB charging port is also on the left earcup, but the packaged cable is much too short to charge and use the headset on the PS4 simultaneously. The 3.5mm port allows the headset to be used wired with other devices, and a 3.5mm cable comes with the package. The Platinum headset connects wirelessly through the packaged USB dongle and seamlessly works with the PS4 and PC.

Sony has left the battery life of this headset undefined, simply saying it’s equipped with an “extended-life” battery. We charged the headset overnight and it lasted for the entire duration of our tests, which amounted to about 10 hours with the dashboard battery indicator still at two of three bars.

The integrated microphone hidden under the left earcup captures clear audio, but didn’t cancel outside noise as well as we hoped considering the dual microphone design is intended to do just that. It’s a great ergonomic design that cuts the cumbersome nature of inflexible boom mics.

Concrete Placing- Sidewalk Repair

FORM WORK-

OK, we are using wood forms with this walk. Layout your 2x4's along the walk and drop stakes every few feet. Your 2x4s will soon be installed end to end so a stake is required at each joint. Beginning on one side, install your 2x4's utilizing enough bets to firmly hold them in place. They must be right and plumb. Nail the 2x4"s to each bet but don't drive the heads all the way in. You have to remove these stakes later and it's a lot easier to get a hold of the nail head in case it sticking out a little. In case you have curves on your walk and also are using 1/4" substance to form you will, of course, need to use many more stakes. Just make sure the form is not going to move when you set the sidewalk repair contractors in Manhattan New York from it.

Now cut a piece of scrap 1x2 the width of your walk. (3' in this instance). Using this as a guide, install the opposite side of your formwork. It'll save you needing to measure over and over again and speeds up the work.

CONCRETE PLACING-

Ok, now we're ready to go. Assess your list. Are types all nailed? Not raining? Loads of help? Got all the tools you need?

And most important did you purchase the sidewalk repair contractor Manhattan? Most companies need at least two days notice for homeowners to order. Commercial accounts come first because of their large volume of requests. BE READY! Remember the truck clock starts when he gets there, not when you get started massaging. Using your garden hose, even if the ground is very dry, slightly dampen it. This can help prevent premature drying of the cement from the floor sucking the water from the sidewalk repair Manhattan NY before you get finished. Beginning in the end the farthest from the truck (you'll see why later) start placing the Manhattan sidewalk repair in the forms. One person must, using his trowel, push the sidewalk repair Manhattan into position and do a preliminary leveling over the forms. After placing a few feet of concrete, with a 2x4 for a screed, he could then level the whole width of the walk by slipping the 2x4 back forth over the top of the forms. You need one individual leveling concrete with a shovel, 2nd person using 2x4 for a screed to level DOT sidewalk violation Manhattan concrete flush with the tops of strains and an additional flip side to wheel sidewalk repair Manhattan, manage the chute, etc..

If a very low spot in the sidewalk repair contractors in Manhattan New York grows, just use the trowel to pickup some moist concrete and toss it in. Proceed and re-screed over this area. If an excessive amount of sidewalk repair contractors in Manhattan New York develops in the front of the screed only push or pull it in the area without Manhattan sidewalk repair. You will quickly get the hang of it. The people helping can watch as they pour the concrete from their wheelbarrows to make sure they don't overwhelm you. If you operate slow and steady it moves pretty fast. OK, we finally have the entire form full of sidewalk repair contractors in Manhattan New York. Place a tiny bit extra in 1 wheelbarrow and let the truck go. Now you need somewhere for the vehicle to wash out his chutes and you will need to clean your gear and wheelbarrows. Concrete stains and gets HARD! Put it somewhere that is easily cleaned later. Do not leave piles of concrete which can't be moved.

Not Getting Enough Sleep? Blame Your Job.

Are you getting enough sleep? If you’re not getting at least seven hours of sleep or more every day, the answer is likely “no,” according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society.

A shortage of sleep, classified as less than seven hours a day, can result in conditions such as cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, depression and anxiety. Although, the amount of sleep a person gets every night is impacted by a diversity of factors, such as race, education, marital status, obesity, cigarette smoking and career. In fact, work is a major factor that can negatively impact sleep, from stress to shift hours to the actual work itself.
