Most complaints about a headset being "uncomfortable" turn out to be complaints about a headset that was never adjusted. People pull it out of the box, jam it on, and live with a hot spot on the crown or one cup sitting lower than the other for months. The AULA A600 gives you two adjustments to work with, and a proper A600 headset fit takes about a minute. That minute is repaid every time a match runs long.

Quick Answer

Extend the AULA A600's headband through its 8 steps until each ear cup is centred over your ear, then let the cups rotate (they turn through 125 degrees) until the cushions sit flush against the side of your head. At about 290g, a level fit spreads the weight across the band and both cushions instead of loading one spot. Match the step count on both sides so neither cup hangs low. The A600 is R459 from Evetech.

📏 Step one: the headband

The A600's band is telescopic, with 8 extension levels. Each level is a set position rather than a free slide, which makes it easy to repeat.

  1. Collapse both sides fully before you start, so you begin from a known point.
  2. Put the headset on and pull one side down, a click at a time, until the centre of the cushion lines up with the centre of your ear opening, not the top of your ear.
  3. Count the clicks. Take the headset off and set the other side to the same count.
  4. Put it back on and check. If the band now floats above your head with the cushions carrying all the weight, go up one step on each side.

Counting clicks is the trick most people skip. Heads are rarely perfectly symmetrical, but starting with both sides equal and then adjusting one step at a time beats guessing by eye in a mirror.

Where the band should rest

A well-set band touches the top of your head lightly across its width. If you feel it on one small point near the crown, the band is too short and the cushions are hanging from it. If you feel nothing on top and the cushions squeeze hard, it is too long. You are aiming for the weight to be shared: some on top, the rest spread around each ear.

🔄 Step two: the ear cups

Each A600 cup rotates through 125 degrees. That movement is what lets a cushion follow the shape of your head, since the sides of most heads are not vertical. Jawlines, cheekbones and the slope behind the ear all differ from person to person.

  1. With the band set, hold the headset by the band rather than the cups.
  2. Lower it on and let each cup find its own angle as it touches your head.
  3. Press lightly on the back edge of each cushion. If there is a gap behind your ear, rotate that cup a little until the rear of the cushion closes up.
  4. Shake your head gently. A good fit stays put without you feeling the clamp.

A full seal matters for more than comfort. Gaps let bass leak out and let room noise in, which changes how the 53mm dynamic drivers sound. A cushion that meets your head all the way round gives you the tuning AULA intended, particularly in the FPS-tuned Game Mode, where directional detail counts.

⚖️ Why 290g needs spreading

About 290g is a moderate figure for a wireless headset with a 2000mAh battery on board. The number on its own does not decide comfort. What decides it is where those grams press. The same weight on a single point of the crown for two hours feels far heavier than it does spread across a band and two full cushions. That is the whole point of the headband steps and the cup rotation: they turn a number into a feeling you stop noticing.

If you wear glasses, check the arms at the fit stage. Rotating a cup slightly can move the pressure point off the arm of your frames, which is often where long-session discomfort starts.

🎛️ Controls, once it fits

After fitting, spend a few seconds finding the controls with the headset on. Four things live on the ear cup: a power button, the M button, a wheel for volume and a slider that mutes the mic. One press of M swaps Game Mode for Music Mode; a double-click moves the connection from 2.4GHz to Bluetooth. Knowing these by touch means you never have to lift the headset and undo the fit you just set.

The detachable omnidirectional mic plugs into the ear cup, so it can come out for listening sessions without affecting the band or cup settings.

The A600 is listed at Evetech with a 1 Year Local Warranty. If you want to compare adjustment ranges on other models, the gaming headset category is the place to start, and Evetech's wireless headset collection narrows it to cable-free designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many adjustment levels does the band have?

Eight. It is a telescopic band, so each level is a fixed position you can count.

What does 125 degrees of cup rotation do?

It lets each cushion tilt to match the angle of your head, so it seals evenly instead of touching at one edge.

Should both sides be on the same step?

Start them the same, then adjust one step at a time if one cup sits lower on your head.

Where should the weight sit?

Shared between a light touch across the top of the head and the two cushions, with no single pressure point.

Which controls should I learn after fitting?

The power button, M button, mic slide switch and volume wheel on the ear cup.

Does a better fit change the sound?

Yes. A full cushion seal keeps bass in and room noise out, so the drivers sound as intended.
