Spark and Strato looks almost the same, cheapo and plasticky.
I prefer Spark's mic over Strato's flexible one.

Hi guys, im thinking of getting a headset, was thinking of getting an orca ealier, but i need a mic so im looking to get a gaming headset now. What i have in mind is either the razer megalodon or the roccat kave?I heard the the roccat kave is kinda heavy so weight is also an important factor to me.

HERE is a good and cheap (RM90) alternative USB DAC (aka USB Soundcard) for those running on stereo headphones...no case though..have to find ur own case for it

DACs amplification abit weak though according to the TS... but should still be able to drive low impedance headphones...if not...can prolly get a cheapo amp like the FiiO E3 @ RM35/pc or the FiiO E5 @ RM80/pc

DAC can also be used for those running on 2.0 or 2.1 speakers... powered speakers usually have their own built in amp so no need to buy the amp.
i guess the DAC + E3 would only come up to about RM125 (excluding cables). good cheap budget alternative for much cleaner sounds for those running on stereo/2.1 headphones or speakers.... suitable for desktop and portable enough for laptop users too thumbup.gif

WOW. thanks for sharing nod.gif

I might get E3 hmm.gif

Sennheiser Introduces New Gaming Headset Lineup
Sennheiser probably isn't the first company that comes to mind when you think about gaming headsets. That's because the company really isn't in that market. They're best known for higher-end headphones for musicians and music lovers, but rarely do they enter the same territory as Razer and Turtle Beach.

Now, that's different. With gamers shelling out so much for accessories, Sennheiser has decided to try their hand at this game. They're announcing four new gaming headsets today, with the PC 360 being the flagship device. It uses an open-air design, while the PC 163D and PC 333D are equipped with Dolby Headphone technology for 7.1 surround sound virtualization.

All three of these have fold-down microphones, and you'll probably be hard-pressed to find a better sounding set of gaming headphones. In fact, you could definitely use these outside of the LAN party when just jamming, and with the prices taken into consideration, you probably should. Speaking of prices: the PC 360 ($299.95), PC 163D ($209.95), PC 333D ($239.95) and PC 330 ($169.95) are available now.

    Sennheiser launches an arsenal of innovative gaming headsets
   
    New flagship model and two surround-sound headsets for 3D gaming
   
    OLD LYME, Conn. – October 26, 2010: Audio specialist Sennheiser Communications introduces a new line of headsets designed for hardcore gamers. Heading up the line is the PC 360—the new flagship headset for pro gamers featuring Sennheiser’s acclaimed Open-Aireā„¢ acoustics and an innovative microphone mute control. For an even more intense gaming experience, the PC 163D and PC 333D are equipped with DolbyĀ® Headphone technology for immersive 7.1 surround sound virtualization. Rounding out the line, the PC 330 G4ME delivers DJ-inspired performance and quality for enthusiasts who take LAN parties as seriously as the professionals.

    The Sennheiser PC 360 gaming headset (click on image for hi-res)
    PC 360: Designed for pro gamers
    As the follow-up to the hugely successful PC 350, the Sennheiser PC 360 has a lot to live up to—and it doesn’t disappoint. Sennheiser Open-Aire speaker technology and a top-notch noise-canceling microphone deliver outstanding hi-fi performance. Although the velvety-soft ear pads and large ear cups fully cover the ears, their open design prevents the artificial sound that can take the shine off even the most intense session. The natural sound also enhances music, movies and internet telephony.

    But it’s the open acoustics and intuitive controls that will really get gamers’ pulses racing. The open design creates a more lifelike soundscape by allowing sound waves to expand and contract as they would in nature, and ensures continuous airflow to keep users cool. A quick-access volume control is integrated onto the right ear cup, allowing gamers to make volume adjustments quickly without breaking their concentration. To mute the microphone, just raise the boom.

    The Sennheiser PC 163D gaming headset (click on image for hi-res)
    PC 163D: A new dimension in 3D gaming at home
    Sennheiser Communications’ PC 163D headset thrusts players headfirst into an extraordinary home gaming experience. The combination of powerful Sennheiser sound and DolbyĀ® Headphone technology enables gamers to distinguish aural cues from all directions- not just left and right. The virtual 7.1 channel, 360-degree coverage allows players to hear footsteps behind a wall or detect the opponent’s position—allowing them to stay steps ahead of the competition.

    Sennheiser Communications brought in professional gaming team mTw to fine-tune every last detail of the PC 163D—and it shows. Professional gamer Christoffer Sunde explains the benefits of 7.1-channel surround virtualization: ā€œThanks to the fantastic multi-channel experience, we can now pinpoint the in-game competitor just by the sound.ā€

    The PC 163D is equipped with a noise-canceling microphone, ensuring your voice comes across clearly. An adjustable boom offers more comfort and flexibility during the game. The design, too, makes the PC 163D comfortable to use. The open build keeps players aware of what’s going on around them and guarantees continuous airflow to the ears. An integrated volume control allows gamers to adjust volume levels on the fly.

    The Sennheiser PC 333D gaming headset (click on image for hi-res)
    PC 333D: The new dimension in 3D tournament gaming
    The PC 333D could be a game changer. For Sennheiser Communications, it’s certainly a statement of intent: to take professional-standard gaming and 3D movies to a new level of realism using high-end multi-channel technology. The PC 333D aims to bring the virtual soundscape alive with 7.1-channel surround sound simulation powered by DolbyĀ® Headphone technology. For FPS enthusiasts used to the basic sound orientation of two-channel headsets, it’s a huge sensory jump.

    The ultra-realism of multi-channel audio is not only enhanced by the closed-acoustic design, but also the excellent quality of the PC 333D’s speakers. The overall effect is a much more intense and immersive gaming experience. The PC 333D helps gamers register crucial sounds, and gain a better impression of where and how far away opponents are, and which way they are moving. Movie lovers will appreciate the extraordinary sound, which catapults them right into the action. It’s no exaggeration to say that the PC 333D takes the gaming and movie experience to a whole new level.

    Sennheiser Communications’ tie-in with the world-class gamers at mTw clearly had a big influence on the professional look and feel of the PC 333D. One ear cup is fitted with a clever ā€œDJ Hingeā€ that users can single-handedly swivel up to talk to people around them. The microphone automatically mutes when the boom is raised. In-game communication with teammates is just as comfortable and intuitive. The volume control is located directly on one ear cup for easy access, and a professional standard noise-canceling microphone delivers Sennheiser-grade calls and chats, even at raucous LAN events.

    PC 330 G4ME: A high-performance headset designed for your G4ME
    The noise of mass gaming sessions is always a challenge, but Sennheiser Communications has designed a great solution: a clever ear-cup design that strikes the balance between immersion and communication. The PC 330 features closed acoustics, so gamers can completely shut out their surroundings for full-on action. To talk to neighbors directly, just flip up the right ear cup like DJs do in a club. Other convenient features include automatic microphone mute, which is triggered when the boom is raised, and a volume control built right into the right ear cup.

    Of course, the PC 330 features trademark Sennheiser stereo sound quality and a high-end noise-canceling microphone that makes it easy to chat uninterrupted online.

    Pricing and availability (click links below to view hi-res images)

    The PC 360 ($299.95), PC 163D ($209.95), PC 333D ($239.95) and PC 330 ($169.95) are available now. Visit www.sennheiserusa.com for stores.


I thought PC360 was released long long time ago?

I think the sound quality wise, it's almost similar to G35. Cause it's the wireless version of G35 + some few minor updates.

for gaming is it better to have surround sound(7.1/5.1) or just stereo one?

QUOTE
sing 5.1 headphones will surely give you exact surround, better surround than stereo headphones, even the best ones, but surround "5.1" headphones have one major weakness, they have to compromise most of the sound quality to get multiple drivers just to make that surround sound. On the other hand using stereo headphones won't give you better positioning than surround headphones, even with effects like dolby headphones or CMSS3D, but to compensate that, some of them have really amazing sound staging(imaging) that almost projects the same surround effects just like surround headphones and since they only have to make 2 drivers on each headphones, of course all the sound quality of each drivers will be far superior than surround headphones.

Anyone know if someone in Lowyat is selling the Sennheiser PC350/PC360 at a good rate. I know the price should be around RM700+

I'm thinking of getting the Steelseries 7H USB but can't decide if it's good enough after reading the reviews. I wouldn't mind trying to get http://www.astrogaming.com/products/detail/4/A40-Headset/ but wonder who can bring this item to Malaysia. Really sadlah sometimes got awesome headsets but not in the market.

I can get it from US/UK/Australia but warranty is what troubles me haiz.

Lowyat.NET or Low Yat Plaza? LYN should be DAViS, last checked he is selling PC 350 at RM809, PC 360 G4ME RM1070.
PC Fair selling PC 350 at RM899 laugh.gif

actually you can try Turtle Beach headsets if you don't want to get stuck in the Razer, SS and Roccat curse. cool.gif
PX21, RM320. Slightly cheaper than Kave.

Although PX21 is aimed for PS3/Xbox users, but it can be used on PC too.

USB version gives you this,
