Pictured here is a shot of NACON's RIG 900 MAX HX wireless headset that I reviewed back in October 2023. I wasn't sure what image to use for this, so I pulled one from that review as it's possible these headphones may be the ones selected for use during the Evo events. It's still my daily driver a year and a half later now.
