Large planar drivers that provide an extended dynamic range. Rich set of accessories.

The debut of the 2026 ROG Delta line from the brand Asus is a set of full-size open-back gaming headphones considered to be in the advanced class. They are worth considering for demanding gamers who own powerful gaming-oriented PCs and/or popular consoles, including PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. The model is a wired solution but supports various connection options, ranging from a mini-Jack to other connectors (via included adapters), including Jack (6.35 mm) and Pentaconn (4.4 mm), as well as USB-C.

This feature broadens compatibility, allowing the headset to be used with smartphones, tablets, amplifiers, DACs, etc. The Asus ROG Kithara headphones are equipped with large 100-millimeter planar magnetic drivers by HIFIMAN. They provide an extended frequency range of 8 to 55000 Hz, excellent sound detailing with a low level of distortion. The headset transforms into a full-range boom microphone model on a flexible arm, which claims accurate voice capture and additional noise cancellation to reduce distracting background sounds. A special mention should be made of the reliable and comfortable design with headband self-adjustment, rotating ear cups, durable hinges, and a metal frame, along with elegant soft earpads (two pairs are included — made of faux leather with a mesh insert and fabric — velour).
