LucidSound’s LS20 headset brings amplified audio to Switch, mobile, and more

A major frustration while traveling or commuting is the loud noises of planes or subway cars drowning out the audio from your headphones. Some devices just don’t put out enough volume. Audio-device manufacturer LucidSound has a way of handling that.

The LucidSound LS20 gaming headset is a wired headset with a built-in powered amplifier. This enables you to get bright, clear audio whether you’re playing on a PC or trying to hear the notoriously quiet Nintendo Switch. The LS20 is available now for $100, and it combines some of LucidSound’s best design sensibilities while offering up powered audio without having to go wireless.
