Sennheiser PC-350 Headset review.

[kitty7092]

@Maljanus The 360 G4ME's are expensive so get the 350's.

[kitty7092]

@TailandPotato 350's...

[TailandPotato]

PC 350 or Sound Blaster Tactic-3D Omega...? (Currently have the Omegas)

[skiie]

can someone tell me how far back the sides bend backwards? I have a bigger head that most people

[Botadeus666]

Guys, could someone tell me, is it possible to use this headset with on-board sound (for some time) ? I will buy sound card in a future (Creative SB X-Fi HD usb because of headphone amp...).

[Maljanus]

I cant decide guys between :

Sennheiser PC 360 G4ME Headset

Sennheiser PC350 High-End Gaming Headset

Wich one should i buy ???

[gyangrd]

@Maljanus get the 350 in my opinion....closed type headsets are better than open type ones..

[SuperDevastetor]

I wish I can take them from the video and put them on to see how they feel :) I think I'm going to get them, every review I have seen praises them.

[Laquun]

should i buy this or g930 ??

[iNekoNaru]

@Laquun That decision is up for you laddy boy.

[killer939]

You can't do a review on these having only used them on onboard sound.

[lstw01]

Please, say is soundproofing of these headphones good enough to protect from loud TV on a distance of 1 meter? TV is so loud, that sometimes I have headache from it.

[iXecFTW]

Sennheiser = best.... i own a pc350...

[MaxAmaSity]

surround?

[bassdemon16]

The bass on this headset is non-existent! Do yourself a favor and DON'T buy these headphones if you're a music enthusiast as well as a gamer. Sure, this headset is excellent at picking up the mid/high sounds of footsteps, reloads and other "game sounds", but it is terrible at producing quality audio for music/movies.

I am a huge Sennheiser fan, having owned the HD 485s and on-ear headphones for the past decade. But i am disappointed by the PC 350s. My HD 485s are cheaper and superior.

[davdav254]

Wich is better this ones or the razer carcharias?

[Ded5833]

I'm using them now and while some sounds are good with them, it seems all the sounds are echo-y and the bass sounds mostly distorted.

[Ded5833]

@signupsigma Actually, this is only specific to low quality sound, if I'm playing high quality, it sounds loud and clear. I'm used to them now and I enjoy them.

[Senko13th]

not very comfortable, if you want to spend a lot of money on headsets get proper sennheiser headphones and a random mic, I returned mine, way too tight on the head and soundproof to the point where you hear your own heartbeat, and voice chat is terrible because you can hear yourself way too well. Press both your palms up against your ears real hard, and then speak, this is what the PC350's are like!

[justskate000]

@Senko13th Sounds awesome, thanks

[ATLien4Ever]

Nice...

[richy69uk]

razer mice,,,add the imperator didnt like it,,got the lycosa keyboard its shit

[ILoveAv1]

Dumb review, 150 Ohm independence means mp3 players wont handle them effectivly, so not for everything!

[LondonWebFactory]

Great mic demo.

Many thanks.

[Poshpuppz]

love you <3

[goertzey]

im impressed with Sennheiser, they started out making speakers and microphones and they decided to make their headsets which came out damn amazing.

[whysopanda]

velcro , really ? and u do reviews lolz

[JRtrauma]

These or the A40's?

[KaiNoMilakovic]

This headset is S@#T the skin on the head set ear muffs begins peeling in weeks if you use them a lot. Pay for the packaging it works like a good storage unit. Other than that, waste of money.

[mustbehiggy]

@KaiNoMilakovic THat's because of your gross little sweaty head and greasy hair lol

[bowlerama2]

damn i am seriously confused on whether i should get the 350 or 360... i love the idea of folding the ear cups and i like the noise cancelling on these because i like the listen to music and games without other people hearing it.... BUT i like music and games with a good bass PLEASE SOMEONE HELP.

[bowlerama2]

which is better the 350 or 360? i will be using them mostly for music and gaming... i dont care about sound cancelation they need to be very comfurtable and a good base

[gippula]

pc 360. but you really need to have a good sound card for these headsets to work. if you dont have a good sound card dont get these headsets.

[rastderb]

well too much for stereo headset.... rather buy speakers

[McMathias46]

Should I get the PC 360 or 350? Please answer :D

[jincuteguy]

@McMathias46 pc360 is new just released and it's better than the pc350. The pc350 was a let down headset from sennheiser.

[turbomonkey138]

@jincuteguy You are an idiot

[snaicli]

@jincuteguy Lol, they're two different headset's... Opened and closed, it's all about personal preference. PC 350 is more for the one who don't want any noise interference, as in a LAN or got you're PC right next to you. The PC 360 is a open technology, which let's air in and out. And so you can decently hear trough it. 360 gives a bit clearer sound and so on. But as said, it's all about personal preference...

[nickum32]

@McMathias46 Get the 350s, they're quite a bit cheaper, and while people say that they are not that good, that is in comparison to the expensive $300 headsets. If you buy they 350s and are disappointed, google the "hero mod," and if you do that you will not be disappointed.

[jakejanne]

Do you think the headphones could break from those turning spots, Myles1292? Most headphones, that have all kinds of turning mechanisms, have a bad habit of breaking from those spots because they're made from cheap plastic or something.

[voldbyseven]

have this headset better sound in game/music in

steelseries siberia v2

logitech g35

steelseries 7h ? nice review please answer me :D I game css / black ops/ mw2 :D

[pulikovsky]

pc360 and pc350 the real gaming headset.

[McMathias46]

Should I buy the PC350 or the PC360? I'm mainly gonna use it for gaming/Chatting

[reuntes]

@McMathias46 It depends on your usage. If you're at lan parties and such, you'll want the 350 since it has closed earcuffs that block out outside noise. If you just play at home, though, the 360's open airflow designs will sound a little better however you will be able to hear much more outside noise.

[SuperRandomdude12]

is it possible to be using this headset with one ear off without it slipping off your head?

[IAreCrazyChris]

these or the razer meglodon's???????

YOU DECIDE!

[ampdgmr]

@IAreCrazyChris Sennheiser, without a DOUBT. I can talk because I've used both. Took the megalodons back and bought pc-350s... been nearly a year and still use them and am still amazed by the sound quality. Stick with razer mice, not headsets.

[hybridnation]

@ampdgmr Carcharias > PC 350

[ampdgmr]

@hybridnation LOL ok, fucking retard. I know you can't afford PC-350 so settle with your little razer trash. I would know because I have owned a Carcharias, and it's shit.

[hybridnation]

@ampdgmr The PC-350's sound is really hollow compared to the Carcharias and other headsets/headphones (ex. Sennheiser HD595/555, Siberia V2, ATH AD700).

The headsets I listed also have a more balanced sound than the PC-350's.

[Metroidhunter07]

@ampdgmr stick with Roccat mice... and Sennheiser headsets.

[JeemOfRunescape]

@Metroidhunter07 stick with logitech mice... and Sennheiser headsets.

[Metroidhunter07]

@JeemOfRunescape Logitech mice are sure great ones, I think it's just a matter of taste, in my opinion Roccat has the better drivers and better technology, but Logitech sure makes great gaming mice. Without a doubt.

[JeemOfRunescape]

@Metroidhunter07 Logitech G400 <3

[Metroidhunter07]

@JeemOfRunescape yea that mouse is alright. However, I have a Gigabyte Mouse and I'm very satisfied with it.

[DeLArK]

Btw, whats the samsung monitor's model?

Thanks

[Filipbjo]

Buy Siberia v2's..

[aliasmaster]

@Filipbjo What makes you say that a headset from a company that predominantly manufactures gaming peripherals would be better than a headset from a company that has 65 years of experience manufacturing audio equipment? Do tell.

[koooosta]

pc350 vs AKG K 240 MK II ? I play games alot, and a friend recommended AKG, so now i can't make up my mind... :S

[laptop504]

Should I get these or the Logitech G930? The G930 is the same as the G35, except the G930 is wireless.

[warhammervlogs]

@laptop504 get these they are soooooooooooo amazing

[friendlycakeasaurus]

i used to be a huge plantronics fan (and their headsets are still very good quality compared to others), however sennheiser has become my favorite gaming headsets, the PC350 in particular. the PC 350 is very pricey for headset, but Sennheiser tends to be higher end to begin with, and you do get what you pay for, which is to say not only good audio quality but the microphone is excellent, which is what matters most to me. people regularly ask what headset im using, as the quality is incredible

[AMD3FAN]

is that!!......girly wallpaper!!!? eeeehhh lol

[STAP1Eman]

Nice Video

[itsRumor]

I love very big cups too...

What? We're not talking about women? oh...

[ricardos640]

Are this better then razer megalodon?

[isinox]

@ricardos640 much better

[derbigpr500]

@ricardos640 Hahah, man, let me tell you. None of the Razer, Logitech or any other PC headphones come even close to the cheapest Sennheiser headphones. These are professional HI-FI headphones, not some cheap set on which you will hear bullets fly around you while playing counter strike. Calling these headphones "gaming headset" is as stupid as calling a ferrari enzo an "off-road vehilce".

[g0t91]

WHY CAN"T ANYONE ONE EVER SPEND MORE TIME ON THE SOUND QUALITY RATHER THAN WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.......

[gymparasite]

@g0t91 because it is not a professional review and they want extended air time.

[xemia]

@g0t91 i agree lol

[Scarezcrows]

@g0t91 because these guys have no idea what their talking about when its all said and done lol.

[DizzyT19]

Is it worth upgrading to the Sennheiser PC 350's? I currently have the steelseries 5H v2 headset.

[Senko13th]

bought em, very uncomfortable, sound is great, however, for long gaming sessions these are terrible, I returned them, probably gonna go for Razer Carcharias

[rayinz101]

@Senko13th yo when u getem just tell me if the razer is any better.

[requiemaura]

@Senko13th Sennheiser pc 360 is perfect.

[Christopherwilder47]

if the headset was detachable these would be perfect. im still getting them though.

[Hldv12]

love this headset 

[requiemaura]

@Hldv12 I have the pc 360's MUCH better design and comfort.

[chopper753]

Nice review man. You've convinced me to buy a pair of these bad boys :)

[EradicationStation]

Are these good if you dont have an awesome sound card?

[hoverbike]

@EradicationStation Dude - think of it like this: If you don't have a nice sound card, you're used to crappy sound.

So they'll sound just as good, as if you were used to a high quality sound card, and you used it.

[Nuffedyr]

getting these =P guess they are better then g35??

[requiemaura]

@Nuffedyr Yes.

[requiemaura]

@Nuffedyr g35 suck balls get Sennheiser pc 360.

[Nuffedyr]

@requiemaura just got 350 xD

[MuSicKliker]

I bought this Headset on Ebay for 60$ unopened in packaging and I also bought the Y Adapter, because I'm going to be playing this on the 360 with the Astro A40 MixAmp, so I believe.. I might have the best sound quality out at the moment =)

[anek00]

I must also agree.

Razer headsets are horrible, especially Piranha.

I've got HD595 and PC350, and i must say that HD595 rocks, very clear and soft sound, good positioning, but at price of open design which leaks every sound away..

PC350 is designed for progamers who need very good noise breaking microphone and critical sound precision.

If you're hardcore gamer but you love listening a lot of music, i recommend HD555,595 - these also work at LAN parties, but in this enviroment PC350 are bette

[MoistMilk]

I bought this the other week, but HAD to return them because the sound was so tinny, Either it was faulty, or my Head was too small for it :S Cause it only sounded somewhat normal when I pushed the cups into my ears as tight as possable with my hands haha.

Im tempted to try and buy another pair just to see if they were faulty, cause I really wanted to get this headset and have it be good for me haha !

[tehzohan]

Razer headsets suck. Get the G35's, they are beast.

[TheZembas]

@tehzohan I have the g35 : P

[NearCry]

PC-350 are by far the best gaming headset i've used

[V1N35h]

Do they work for PS3?

[RealGamersTV]

@V1N35h with astro mixamp 

[FirsToStrike]

Guys, i bought the PC350 about a year ago, compared to the HD555 or any other "music" headphones they suck. They are not that great for gaming as i expected them to be. If you need good closed-back gaming headphones i really recommend Ultrasone's stuff. (Or Alienware's Ozma which are Ultrasone's headphones with a different name and color...)

[poolchamp15]

@FirsToStrike PC 350's are more for gaming and for people who have a GOOD sound card, like creative labs titanium, or asus xonar d2,

if you dont have than you better not buy a PC 350

[FirsToStrike]

@poolchamp15 i have an X-fi XtremeGamer. The PC350 is just not as good as the HD555. Nevermind the other equipment.

[poolchamp15]

@FirsToStrike hd 555 is for iPods and music (on pc), but not for gaming,

otherwise they would have called it the pc 555,

pc 350>hd 555 for gaming ofcourse,

[FirsToStrike]

@poolchamp15 that's not true at all.

Just because something is labeled as "gaming" doesn't make it better for it.

Gaming headsets are usually overpriced.

And i've experienced both, so i can tell you the HD555 is so much better for both.

[FirsToStrike]

@poolchamp15 oh, sry, what i meant was that just because a headset is labeled as "gaming" doesn't make it better than a none-gaming headphones for gaming purposes.

[poolchamp15]

@FirsToStrike hahahaahh

pc 350 and hd 555 are the same, same sound driver

the only thing is that hd 555 doesnt have mike,

haahahahh XD

[FirsToStrike]

@poolchamp15 yes, i have heard that, but keep in mind that the HD555 are open and the PC350 are closed headphones.

I heard them both, fully burned in, and they just don't sound the same, the HD555 really sounds much superior.

The PC360 might really be an HD555 with a mic.

[poolchamp15]

@FirsToStrike pc 350 is just a game mod headset,

you dont need the low sound with gaming,

but actually there all the same, just some little mod and changing :)

but you need a mike though for pro gaming so i still recommend pc 350 XD

[Joeman280]

Is the mic removeable?

[kry0bas]

@Joeman280 Short Answer, no ^^

[funnyfootballs]

What is best logitech g35 or this??

[stephanater3]

I've had these since they were released, I did find something interesting, if u put your finger on the bottom part of the left or right cup, underneath there is a little opening allowing some channel of air to get through, so sweatiness is a minor problem on my side.

Regardless it is absolute worth getting, 9.8/10

[yeechester]

@snipahax yes lol

[ThePKscene]

open or closed ear?

[bewareteam]

Help i see in the spec of this headset that its impedance is 150 which is higher than the impedance which usually gives the soundcards(26-32)

I want use this headset with a generic onboard soundcard, how is it gonna listen? How is gonna be the bass reproduction?

For me it's important they'll sound good because i play tournament of cs 1.6 and things like that ... i need it for gaming.

[SuperSpetnaz]

can you use it for playstation3?

[starbase18]

@SuperSpetnaz i use a pair of sennheiser rs130's for my ps3 and they rock :)

[Godkiller08]

@SuperSpetnaz I think but u need a rack for the jacks.

[JoeVSvolcano]

Garbage? You don't know what your talking about. I've tried them both on, the new razer megladon feels better on the ears/head, has deeper lows, and much more comfortable for long listening sessions than the 350's. I dont care how much a headset costs.... The #1 question is "DOES IT GAME?".

[ashrocks87]

@JoeVSvolcano

im ditching razer it's the second time im returning a razer headset first is the carcharias and now the megalodon is on repairs i hope we can refund and i'll buy this headset.

[TheBradleyLawrence]

thanks MyBrEatsCats im just going to buy one :D

[jinkis4]

Is this 5.1 or 7.1?

[sorenhim]

@jinkis4 2.1

[biggi3lue]

@sorenhim who was @TheBradleyLawrence

You mean 2.0

[starbase18]

appreciate the review, thanks man. i wont need the velcro tho as my head is massive :)

[SaBu76]

@starbase18 LMFAO! I was about to post something similar because I have a rather LARGE head....LMAO .....man im glad I'm not the only one...haha

[starbase18]

@SaBu76 I bought the phones a couple of weeks ago and i did find them a little tight, so i clamped them over my pc case which helped age/stretch them and now their good. a great headset and amazing mic but they are so closed, it feels like your ears are congested with a head cold, especially when you talk. as far as comfort and type of sound i still prefer my sennheiser rs130's.

[SaBu76]

@starbase18 Thanks for the info. I'll keep that in mind before I make a purchase.

[blinkcomment]

excellent headset ... I love it!! although a bit expensuve..

[credor2]

are these 5.1 surround sound?

[TheBradleyLawrence]

can i use this headset with the xbox 360

[slotre]

Dont think so

[Vinho27]

is it compatible with windows 7?

[dAHLfrag]

@Vinho27 yes

[Coljj]

PC-360 Headset is due out in a few months.

They will be an open design and likely an improvement over the PC-350

[creepinshadow247]

sounds cool.

any sources?

[oshashik]

can you use with xbox 360

[MyBrEatsCats]

yes but only with a mixamp from astro

[DESTROYriaa]

cant wait to get these. have tried out several sennheiser products, mainly the hd600's and one of the usb headsets. they are an audio company, which means this is what they do! dont buy headphones from a gaming company, buy your mouse from them. this company makes great sounding speakers, and you can tell just by looking at the cables the build quality is exceptional.

[xxTechxxx]

can u hear yourself talk a little through the mic so u dont get that clogged ear felling? PLZ REPLY!

[skyjumpy]

@xxTechxxx thats a setting you have to configure by your soundcard/driver, the headphones got nothing to do with it.

[xxTechxxx]

i was really talking about mixing it with the astro mix amp but if u dont know that cool

[DrakeLance]

uhm that's a windows sound setting.....

[raruenify]

Your voice is making me rage.

[DJaysParadise]

Bose still to be the best headphones! ;)

[JTGaming]

Will these be ok with onboard sound on my biostar ta780gm2+?

[NearCry]

they will be good enough.

[JTGaming]

Will these still be ok with the onboard sound on my biostar ta780gm2+?

[SRVMETAL]

To all who are wondering wether to get these or not, GET THEM. They are simply stunning. They are extremely comfertable, and the soundquality of the headphones and mic, is just near the perfect sound experience!

[Parano1dlol]

indeed

[iGuy321994]

Where can I get your wallpaper?

[giberish1986]

id buy them but the jb hi fi near me sells

g35 160$

pc350's for 300$

and from what ive been reading they are as good as g35 just one offers surround sound and the other offers better quality soud but stereo

[siralexu]

@giberish1986 stay away from the g35 at least at this time most have a manufacturing defect that causes a high pitched sound in the left earmuff

[cyrax1311]

The Logitech G35 isn't good for music only gaming which is bullshit.

[NearCry]

i had to take my G36 back because of weird glitches. i did like them for gaming but when the problems started to happen it was very annoying

[modeSeven]

So guys, should I get these or just get an audiophile pair of sennheisers and get a mic with it? And how do I know my old sound card will work well with these, there are no suggestions on the sennheiser page?

[serc0]

yo guys im gettting soon 1 of these headsets, but witch one is better, logitech g35 or the sennheiser pc 350 some1 advise me about it ty.

[hotdog2025]

This is apples and oranges, man. This one's designed for some high quality stereo sound and is preferred for most games and really the only way to go for music and regular TV. It also uses a standard 3.5mm jack so you get more flexibility. The G35 is built around surround sound at all cost, which is useful for FPSs + movies but not really worth the drop in sound quality for anything else. The USB connector also makes it pretty useless in stuff other than your PC. Depends on what you want to do.

[serc0]

Ok, thnx man im getting the sennheiser one of these days..

ty for ur fast reply!

[1001000011]

Someone gave me the sennheiser 350 for free xD becuz he want the G35

[serc0]

lol..

[xVINCE1012x]

right... -.- as if someone would give a 250-300$ headphone away for a less good one xD
