beyerdynamicMMX 300 premium over-ear gaming headset (2nd Generation) with microphone and suitable for PS4, XBOX One, PC & Notebook

These headphones are literally like being in a listening booth where outside sounds are absolutely dead and silent and all you can hear is silence until you put your music through them. They are excellently built being robust and extremely comfortable to wear and l don’t have one negative comment to make

Ordered MMX300 headphones for my son, who’s an ardent gamer, at his request. To replace OneOdio headphones he’d had for ages and the mic had started to cut out. He told me that they were an improvement, especially the comfort value when wearing for a considerable time. The sound was about the same and the mic was slightly better, but not by that much, as his previous ones which I had given him, had the same features: audio mute, etc. He’s happy with them and hopes that they will, over time, justify the cost!

Guys I felt like these were ZEN1 not zen2... they didn't have the treble softening foam pads inside like on YouTube.... NOT JUST A GAMING HEADPHONE. Really, try the Dekoni sheep skin for Bayers on these. Softens the treble. Too harsh for my taste on stock pads. And it's also V shaped. Unfortunately I returned these because I prefer a much more aggressive mid range and well balanced sound. But YOU WILL FEEL THE BASS! if that's your jazz. Highly recommend with a DAC grab the ifi hip dac easily portable on the go as well. With that xBASS. Feels like BOOMBOX in your EARS :D. But unfortunately for me. It was a choice between HifiMan Sundara (open back) and these. The Sundaras clearly gives more of that eargasm specially on a ifivhip dac hooked up on a pc. Also on phone but a little less. Mid range felt muffled and muddy to me. So the vacals weren't as prominent of course. Specially on sound of silence. It's a taste thing. If you like electro though 100% you'll love these. And these Bayers will sound better than any other wireless crap you got.

I put 4 stars because the cable with the "y" connection was faulty. Fortunately comes with two cables and the one with the straight conection was good so we had to buy a "y" extension and it was perfect.Even though the item said everything was in good condition there was this problem. I believe that the returned products should be better tested before re selling them saying they are working 100%.The product itself is real good. Good quality, good sound, good microphone, good isolation.

Overall sound and bass is decent quality. Comfort is good but also where it loses big points.After about 12 months of (admittedly heavy) use, the earpieces lose a lot of sponginess, so you start to feel the metal rims underneath. IE quite unfomfortable. The headband also looses it's coating so black bits end up everhwere.So yea, be preared to fork out apprx £38 for new earpieces from GER if you will use them a lot. Would not buy again even though I love the brand.

Imagine a better DT 770 Pro coupled with one of the best cardioid microphone money can buy, and you end up with the MMX 300.They're relatively light at 290 grams, great given their sturdy steel frame. They're comfortable, though like most Beyerdynamic headphones, the clamping force is fairly high around the ears. So as usual, place them around an object larger than your head for a few days at night and they'll be good to go, at the expense of noise isolation obviously.They sound very neutral, and listening to recodings of your own voice is so clear that it is almost confusing...I compared it against a good lav mic, my former Sennheiser pair and the microphone of my logitech 920 webcam: it beats them all in terms of vocal range, volume, ambient noise suppression and clarity. The Sennheiser wasn't too far, but sounded very nasal and needed more gain to offer the same output volume.So when Beyerdynamic writes "extremely high-quality condenser microphone" on the box, they're not lying. We're in the territory of high end broadcast microphone quality, perfect for podcasts and voice overs.So yes, they're amazing. Pricey, but it is justified, as it's clearly a professional grade device.

Compared to the first generation, the cable is dreadful and mine has disintegrated from the inside out. Moisture can get inside the cable via the volume control and oxidates.A replacement cable costs £50!Although the headset feels sturdier than the first version, the audio quality is greatly lacking.Personally I would look elsewhere.Also, customer support is now crap and you can no longer purchase replacement parts directly from beyerdynamic!Contacting them regarding the cable, they claimed that I damaged the cable "mechanically". I did nothing of the sort.I always hang the headset up after use and I have it set up so the cable never touches the floor, to avoid it getting caught in my chairs wheels.
