Logitech’s Chorus is a $100 speaker add-on for the Meta Quest 2.
Logitech has introduced a new audio solution made especially for the Meta Quest 2: It’s called “Chorus,and the company says it can deliver a “new level of immersive, ultra-realistic audio.” Chorus features rotating speakers and an open back that lets ambient sounds through. It’s designed to slide onto the Quest 2’s headset strap until the speakers are over. placed in the user’s ears.In fact, once installed, the VR device will look like the Valve Index, which comes with two near-field speakers. The edgethe Chorus is compatible with both the standard strap that the Quest 2 comes with and Meta’s Elite strap.
The accessory maker says Chorus’ large open-back audio drivers allow users to hear both the “big moments and the smallest details.” And while the add-on isn’t an original part of the Quest 2, it’s meant to stay in place rather than being removed after each use. It plugs into the headset’s USB-C port and draws power from the Quest 2 itself, but because it’s designed to stay plugged in, it supports USB-C pass-through. That means users can keep their headset charged or connect other devices to it while Chorus is also connected The edge notes, however, that Chorus has little noise isolation and probably isn’t the best choice for those who want privacy while watching movies or exploring new experiences in VR.
Vadim Kogan, Logitech’s head of AR/VR, said: “Chorus improves the fit and comfort of Meta Quest 2 while allowing enthusiasts of long play sessions to stay immersed in their favorite games and experiences through audio integration in a comfortable design that is built for the VR gamer.”
Choir will be available soon from Logitech’s website, Amazon and other retailers for $100.
