I need a gaming headset that isn't going to break itself within a year.

So looking at the PC37x they do look nice. Problem is they're sold out. The PC38x seems like it's almost the same thing.

Advice needed

the DROP PC38X is good. Mic quality isn't great, but solid headphones. Open back design so has more natural sound and lightweight design that will survive wear and tear.

Gaming headset?

If you want a headset with a mic I recommend the pc38x from drop. Long story short it is a sennheiser hd560s with a flip mic on the side with a lower impedance requirement and slightly different tuning to make it sound like everything is around you instead of in front (I have both and this is how I

The Drop PC38X is pretty good but sticking with HyperX can't really go wrong either.

I want to splurge on headphones this christmas so I can listen to Internal Empire on my turntable.

Dude. You’re the one correcting me. This isn’t a deposition. If you are right, great, drop a link proving it and we’ll all know better for it. I have no pride over any of this whatsoever. We’re all just shooting the shit on reddit. Ps. I noticed you downvoted me, gave a snarky response, then immedia

Any recommendations for PS5 under $200?

I swear by the Drop PC38X. I’ve had Audeze and Steel Series and while those are great I think the PC38X is just that much better.

How do Sennheiser model numbers work and which should I buy?

The one I have currently is the HD490 Pro. I got this one primarily due to its prowess in gaming performance primarily, but it's a good all-around headphone. It's considered by many as a more refined, upgraded version of the HD560S, which is much less expensive. Sennheiser has a ton of headphones in

Alright so basically EPOS was Seinnheiser’s gaming branch. They got fucked and are now making call center equipment I think. The PC38X from Drop.com is the only way to get it now since Drop now owns the PC38X. The headset is spectacular and is a slight improvement over the PC37X. Personally I switch

Drop x Sennheiser PC38x Review + other Sennheiser Comparisons

The pc38x is great. But is now hard to find since the headset is owned and made by drop who is now owned by corsair. And corsair has now announced drop is being shut down. So the Pc38x may come back under the corsair branding but as of now who knows. The Kithara is essentially a hifiman edition XS o
