Creative Draco HS880

Creative has long had a strong reputation in the PC audio space – if you had a computer in the 90s, chances are it contained one of the company's Sound Blaster sound cards. More recently, the company has been focussing on the budget end of the gaming...

Simple, understated design ; In-line remote control ; Noise-cancelling boom mic

Creative Draco Review HS880
