However, one of the biggest differences is the purpose. This is a gaming headset and includes a really high quality microphone with Sennheiser quality speakers and build.
1 black band = mono (single channel)
2 black bands = stereo (2 channels)
3 black bands = stereo plus mic input (3 channels)
Sorry if I wasted anyone's time!

I also have the 37x and those are good as well (got both as open box in pristine condition for super cheap) I do appreciate the 38x having both cables especially in a case where a cable gets damaged (I think my mic cable on the 37x is having issues), so you could replace them. The 38x audio is a little better, and I think I remember that Joshua dude on YouTube having a good comparison video (I want to say the drivers were updated but I can't remember for sure). The 37x is the clear winner for color, though you could fix that by slapping a Wu-Tang Killah bee on the 38x. 😉
Another bonus over the 37x is the 38x comes with 2 sets of pads - velour and I think a pleather. I've kept the velour on as I'm used to those. I have a fat head (bigger than 7.5 hat) and the 38x is comfortable for long sessions. I'd say more comfortable than the alienware.
This will be my first pair of open-back headphones so I'm hoping I like them for gaming and general use.
The pros were the build quality and clarity.
The cons were that I had to max them out to get any decent volume and even then I wished I had a little more, which is not what I read. These are not supposed to need an amp at all. They also have pretty bad vertical sound positioning to my ears. I thought for sure someone in Apex was above me when they were below. Last, there's some frequency, not sure which, that sounds pretty rolled off in the mids or highs. It sounds slightly muffled, like you're listening to a speaker with a blanket on it.
I thought something was probably wrong with that set, so I returned them to Amazon and got another pair directly from drop. Same thing. Hopefully this helps someone. I'm still looking for my perfect pair of headphones.

Something many forget about is that older mobos use older sound drivers.
