Playseat SV Sound and Vibration Gaming Seat Review

After paying the money that I have payed for this seat, I have to say that I expected more.

The seat itself is ok. I find it comfortable, it holds the wheel firmly, and you can adjust the distance of the pedals and the wheel. The integrated sound is fine as well, although to me it doesn't bring an awful lot. You could play with your earphones and you would be alright. But then, all the other components have, in a higher or lower degree, some sort of issue.

The main thing for me is the vibration. It is so disappointing that, if I had known beforehand how it was going to be, I would have not bought this seat. I decided to go for the SV seat after getting my Logitech G27 and experiencing for the first time the great immersion feeling that its force-feedback provides. I thought that extending that feeling to the seat would be the closest you can be to a real driving experience. Unfortunately, this is not the case, as when I was assembling the seat, I found out that the vibration is not syncronized to the game, but simply connected to the bass. Not only that, the seat has only one pattern of vibration. Overall, better forget about any kind of immersion into the game from this side.

Then, we can talk about the platform for the pedals. It looks very compatible with the G27, as it has the same size and the same holes that the pedals. However, if you assemble them in this way, the bar that holds the wheel falls exactly in front of the brake pedal, which means that you would be hitting the bar with your leg every time you want to press the brake. Fortunately, there is one additional hole in the platform, a little out of the center, and you can screw the pedals there in a way that the bar falls between the brake and the clutch and it doesn't bother. However, by doing so, you assemble the pedals with just one bolt, so you have to keep it tight to prevent them from moving when playing.

And finally, another big issue is the "compatible" gearshift holder. My God, I can't believe that the seat and the gearshift are made by the same company! It is a complete disaster! You have to unscrew one bolt of the seat to stick the gearshift and then screw it back, but it becomes so unaccessible once you have put the gearshift that screwing it back took me hours, trying to setup adaptors from my home tools to my Allen to reach it. Not only that, once I finished with this piece, I proceeded to insert what would be the actual support of the gear, only to find out that the subwoofer under the sit acts as a barrier and does not allow it to go to the end, what means that I can't reach the gears keeping my back in the seat!

After all, I kind of sorted the issues (except the vibration; there is nothing to do there) and I am having good fun, but the bottom line is that the extra money I paid for this seat, compared with the other standard ones in the market without sound or vibration, is not worth at all.
