Beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd generation) Gaming Headset - black [718300]

voodoo ade! In the hi-fi segment, all sorts of companies whose products have more to do with Voodoo than with real sound culture. The influence of fat cables, of solid gold connections, of sound cups or of "optimized" feet and racks is low to imagined. Sound engineers and music producers, however, leave such excesses cold - pure sound is the focus of attention. Nevertheless, this requirement must not remain a dream for the solid use in the own four walls, since professional studio offerers frequently offer corresponding second lines.

Beyerdynamic belongs to this circle and enjoys an excellent reputation with professionals and enthusiasts with his headphones, microphones as well as his studio and conference technology. In addition to reproducing, the recording technology also belongs to the reference areas, so that the concentrated development competence of both strings leads to a headset collection of the extra class. The MMX 300 (2nd generation) is the top model of the multimedia and gaming series by beyerdynamic.

This is a combination of Hi-Fi headphones and pilot headset (HS 300). What looks strange at first sight, however, makes sense for the specific application. The Hi-Fi genes ensure a perfect reproduction, while the avionics genes provide an optimal shielding of ambient noise, maximum intelligibility even in turbulent situations and a robust design. This is the perfect prerequisite for not being distracted on a LAN with hundreds of bunkers and a loud backdrop.

Already the design of the MMX 300 (2nd generation) shows the close relationship to the Hi-Fi headphones, so the matt black design is equally noble and functional. The headset offers outstanding processing quality with stable metal carriers, a wide range of adjustment, large pinnacles and above all a very comfortable padding. Both ear and head cushions can be removed to clean them or replace them with other colors.

The loudspeakers are located in enclosed housings, which are very strongly insulated to attenuate external noise to a very high degree. Used as a headphone, this also has the advantage of not bothering the environment, even when the sound is good. The microphone has also been optimized for a very effective noise filter. The technology also comes from the professional field, whose performance clearly exceeds that of other high-end gaming headsets.

This also applies to the playback, which does not rely on an unrealistic raising of high and low frequency ranges, as is usual in the gaming sector. Rather, maximum neutrality is at the forefront, which is why music, play, film and language are exactly reproduced as they were recorded.

The connection is optionally via a 3.5 mm combo jack, a 6,35 mm adapter or by extension cable and two 3.5 m jack for line & mic. A special highlight is that the cable can be completely removed from the headset. This can be especially helpful, if you with the office chair once again tangled in the cable or has accidentally stepped on it. Thus, the user is not brutally torn from the head, but only the connection solved.
