Best WIRED gaming headset

Alternatively, the Drop PC38X are actually a collab between Sennheiser and Drop to make an audiophile gaming headset. They go almost head to head with the 560S as far as sound quality, and the built in mic is pretty great - better than the Sennheiser BAM mic by a lot. Another big thing to consider i

Switching from IEM’s to PRO X2 light speed…

I bought these and returned them immediately. I don’t use IEMs (yet, although I have a few pairs). I’m currently rocking the Sennheiser 560s and came from the Drop PC38x. Love them both, insane for games like CS2. I hear so much more than usually everybody else on my team. Really suggest either of t

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.

christmas gift suggestions

Stay away from gaming headsets and buy a real headset.

Microphone for gaming: headset or separate microphone?

PC38x on Drop. Best gaming headset handsdown. I prefer music/gaming on this than I do with Hifiman Edition XS that gathers dust on the shelf.. and the mic is good.

[LFH][Xbox/PC][Budget?] Need headset recommendations for my boyfriend

If you want something genuinely high quality for PC and Xbox, check out the Drop and EPOS / Sennheiser PC38X. The sound quality is way better than most typical gaming headsets, the mic is clear for Discord, and it’s super comfortable for long sessions. Fwiw my mate and I both use the PC38X after see

Any recommendation of gaming headset?

You might want to check out the Drop + EPOS / Sennheiser PC38X. It’s a great wired headset for gaming and Discord, with excellent sound quality, a solid mic, and very comfortable lightweight design. FWIW my mate and I found Redditrecs while comparing headsets, it compiles recommendations from Reddit

Replacing my Game Zero's with something modern

Glad I could help - but I’m unclear what you mean as to who isn’t releasing the PC38X. It’s available and when drop ends in a few weeks they’ll be moving over to Corsair. The PC38X is pretty good. If you absolutely want the attached mic, flip to mute, and volume on the earcup, and those are dealbrea

Replacing my Game Zero's with something modern

I didn"t know that Sennheiser had just shuffled the PC38X around and re-released them under sub brands and ex sub brands and now under licensing deals like Drop, and Corsair. The Drop variant is not even sold in Europe, i will try and see if it makes sense financially to import. Main reason why i do
