I've got this headset, it's excellent even at the original price. I have a crap ton of headphones and this one more than holds it's own for music and of course gaming.

Open back (my preference but some may want closed).

Fantastic mic as well. Mutes when you swing the mic up.

I'm in!

This should be a good upgrade over my HyperX Cloud Stinger set. I noticed the Stingers have 30ohm and the PC38X 28ohm. I presume an amp isn't necessary if I didn't already have one.

I also upgraded shipping for $5. No way I'm using FedEx Smartpost now that the USPS is readily and openly announcing mail delays and slower mail. Looks like ship date is 10/7 according to Drop.

Quote from squatchy :
Wonder how these compare to the older Sennheiser Game One I have. Guessing probably not worth upgrading?
Based on the RTINGS review comparison [rtings.com], the GAME ONE has better midrange and treble than the PC38X and only falls to its younger sibling in lower bass response. So if either (1) you are happy with the bass of the G1 or (2) if you can apply some equalization in whatever listening environment you have, then it seems like the PC38X is more of a lateral move than an upgrade.

Color me impressed, because i can get a good 8-10 hours out of my battery before the warning is issued, then they charge in a bout a half hour to an hour.

If someone could help me out. I got these qt the beginning of the pandemic and my son is complaining that the left side of the headset doesn't work. What's the return policy?
I think I paid about this for pc37x.
Thanks in advance
I think its 2 years for most Sennheiser's on Drop. Contact drop support on their website.

You can also buy extra warranty coverage on new headphones for future reference.

Can't get the coupon to work, did it expire?

I was getting this too, the process is a bit specific. What finally worked for me was following the link on the front page to get $10 off, entering a new email address, following the email link to the drop front page, logging in to the new account, then adding the headphones to cart.

Anyone recommend a good DAC to use with these? I'm sure they sound great plugged right into the PC but will probably sound better connected to a DAC, right?

Depends on your motherboard. How much you looking to spend?

Get something cheap at first.

This hobby will burn a whole in your wallet and you might get a fugazi.

These are not hard to drive but onboard sound can get noisy depending on the board. I would get an inexpensive DAC/AMP combo. Something like a creative G5/6 or schiit fulla and stop there. Anything better you will likely not get the benefit of unless u plan on upgrading to higher end cans.

I bought these when they first came out and don't regret paying full retail. Fantastic headset that performs well above its cost, especially at thos discount.
