Dolby 7.1 Positional / Surround sound
This is software driven and available via the USB sound adaptor. Although there are only 2 physical speakers, the perception of surround sound is pretty good via the Logitech software.
Rotating Washable Ear Cups
The ear cups fold flat which is convenient for laying around your neck but I liked this feature for hanging the G430 on a magnetic hook on the side of my PC. I didn’t actually wash the removable ear pads because they didn’t seem to get dirty but the concept/option is well implemented and good to see.
