  • Best gaming headset I have owned! If you are on the fence - buy it!
Color: Black Size: One Size
First and foremost, this is an excellent headset. I am sold on this brand. If/when my current PC38x gives out, I will be buying a new one or purchasing the successor, whichever is out at the time. If you are on the fence - just buy it! Another item to note, I purchased the PC38x used from the Amazon Warehouse in "Used - Very Good" condition. There were very minor signs of previous wear but nothing major at all. Some reviews mention a rather strong clamping force on your head, however I have found the used pair to be incredibly comfortable. I have had multiple gaming headsets through the years. It started with the Turtle Beach X12 on the Xbox 360. I've used the TB Stealth 600's for the PS4, and most recently I used the SteelSeries Arctis Pro + Gamedac for the PS4 and PS5. I can confidently say this headset demolishes all of them. I will say that I was content with the Steelseries Arctis Pro, however it's microphone is not compatible with the Xbox Series S I recently purchased. The PC38x works flawlessly on both Xbox and PS consoles. It is as simple as plugging the headset into your controller and you are good to go. Once you get your game/chat mix adjusted in the part chat settings, master volume is easily adjusted on the dial of the right-ear on the headset. The sound quality and depth the PC38x provides greatly surpasses all of the headsets I have used before. I've been playing the old Call of Duty's on Xbox and I can easily tell exactly where enemies are by their footsteps. Of course, other headsets also do this but the PC38x has been better than the previous products I've used. Compared to the Arctis Pro + Gamedac, I love how simple the PC38x is. The Gamedac encourages you to tweak the audio settings to boost your performance (I never found it to make a huge difference, and mostly just to be a bit gimmicky). With the PC38x you just plug it in and it does what it is supposed to do, which is produce an excellent sound. The mic quality is also excellent. Just search for a video review of this headset on Youtube and you will likely find a clip of someone demonstrating this. The mic also easily mutes by flipping it up, you get an audible "click" to confirm that you are muted or unmuted. It should be noted that the mic is not detachable or retractable, it just swivels up and down. The only downside to this headset that I have so far is that since it is an open-back headset, you can get a fair bit of noise if you don't have your volume high enough. Not a big issue at all for me, but I could see this being an issue for some people. ... show more

  • Stunning sound, lightweight headset
Color: Black Size: One Size
Sound quality: 5/5 - Warm bass and clean highs, rich soundstage Comfort: 3/5 - Average comfort, clamping force a bit tight, but offset by how light it is I'll start by saying that I'm not an audiophile but I do have a high expectation of sound quality. My previous headset was a HyperX Cloud II which was my favorite for years. The sound quality between the two was close when I compared the PC38X against the amplified digital surround of the Cloud IIs. However the PC38X had a more crisp and clear soundstage with zero enhancements. I find that digital surround can sometimes sound a bit muddy, while the soundstage on the PC38X was wide and immersive while capturing the full integrity of dialogue, music, and sound effects. I don't think I'll ever be able to go back to digital surround when these sound so good just from hardware alone. The PROS: The bass is warm and has punch to it without being overpowering. The high notes are crisp and the quality of the sound is rich and clean. These are a good middle ground for gaming and music listening. I listened to Tartini's violin sonata and it was like hearing it for the first time, the sound was so incredible. I also play games such as Nier, Genshin, and Baldur's Gate, and the sound was immersive and directional. The PC38X are more bass heavy than an audiophile set but preserve much more sound clarity than a generic gaming headset. I absolutely love it. I'm used to wireless headsets so I was worried about switching to wired. I'm pleased to say that the cord is very light and unobtrusive. Speaking of light, this is also one of the lightest headsets I've ever worn. It barely feels like you're even wearing it. This is also my first experience with an open back headset. It's hard to describe how it feels like your ears can breathe when the sound isn't being reflected directly back into them like from a closed back set. It's extremely comfortable and much more natural feeling. The CONS: The biggest complaint I have about the PC38X is the clamping force. It's not an "uncomfortable" set, per se, but it's certainly not one of the more comfortable headsets I've worn. It's slowly breaking in, and the lightweight nature of it helps offset the tightness, but I wear glasses and I find myself pausing to stretch it out every now and then. Open backs are sort of a pro and a con depending on your environment. Do be aware that you will hear sounds through them and everyone else WILL hear everything you're listening to. My roommate has commented that they can hear them through the other room, so it's something to be mindful of. OVERALL: I personally have loved appreciating just how good everything sounds in this headset. It's just the right amount of bass and clarity. While it's not the most comfortable headset I've worn, it's not offensive either. Switching to open back has drawbacks if you live in a loud environment, but it's revolutionary in how you'll perceive sound. ... show more
