This is a bit sketchy. Sure you could get a premium set of headphones
that would allow you to hear things at large distances quite well with
maybe similar accuracy, but having a visual overlay...questionable at
best. Really, really questionable if you can get it the same size as the
CS:GO radar and position it to be right on top of the in-game radar,
which would probably be what people would prefer given a few tweaks if
they were to use it.
When I saw ads on say ESEA streams during LANs for BenQ and them showing
off Black eQualizer, the thought of "could this be construed as
cheating?" passed through my mind once or twice, but anyone can screw
with contrast settings on their own monitor so I thought nothing of it,
especially at Valve-sponsored tourneys where everyone has the same setup
sans keyboard and mouse where it couldn't be cheating since everyone's
on a level playing field.
I'd probably wait for a Valve judgement with explanations before making
my mind up since I'm pretty on the fence about it.

I'm finding out that someone in my clan has been using this for quite
some time. The kid has the game sense of a cheese sandwich but always
knows where people are. He plays in no competitive leagues at all,
just a matchmaking god.
Right in it's description in the link it tells you flat out that it
gives you an advantage in certain scenarios and also
enhances/pinpoints footstep sound.
Here is a snippet from the link that bothers me the most:
"Sonic radar gives a strategic advantage on some very particular
moments such as:
- being threatened from outside the gamers sight range (draw distance)"
That is fucked. It's completely toggleable as well. Maybe someone here
has better insight on this and why it's allowed when on the surface it
seems to be on the same level as ESP, radar, or any other cheat that
detects players positions.
