Klipsch have gone with an ever ubiquitous 40mm drivers for the base of the KG-200 and, somehow, managed to created an over-ear cup all whilst keeping a distinctive design and shape to the KG-200. In terms of “tuned drivers” it’s safe to assume these have definitely been geared towards a more gaming orientated sound – a notion backed up by the four built-in EQ settings that can be flicked through on the fly.
