The Coolermaster Storm Sirus S may sound familiar already. That is because the Sirus S is based on their already existing Storm 5.1 gaming headset.

Coming back to the newer Storm S, the differences between this and the older Storm are merely the absence of an inbuilt 5.1 sound card. Otherwise, the headphone specifications of the Sirus S and the older Sirus are the same. Even the looks, build quality and cable are practically the same.
The main USP of the Sirus S is that since there is no inbuilt sound card the price is a bit lower. The other difference is that the Sirus S comes with an extra set of ear cups and a nice carry bag as well.
So the Sirus S is also a 5.1 capable headphone with 8 headphone drivers for a real (not emulated) 5.1 surround sound experience.
It also has a retractable microphone and instead of the Tactical control that came with the older Sirus this one has an inline remote with dedicated volume controls for front, rear, center and subwoofer channels.
