beyerdynamic MMX 330 Pro Open-Back Gaming Headset with Stellar.45 Driver and Condenser Microphone, Wired Gaming Headset Suitable for PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Handmade in Germany

Excellent gaming headset
This is my second Beyerdynamic headset, but my first time purchasing the MMX 330 pro. The TL;DR: this is an amazing gaming headset that I would recommend.I was worried because I saw a lot of negative reviews saying the mic didn’t work. When I first got my headset, I couldn’t hear the mic at all either. I plugged it all in, checked inputs/outputs, and thought “oh crap, I got a bad one too.” But actually, there’s a mute/unmute toggle switch that ships to muted by default. It’s on the cable itself next to the volume rocker, and so you just need to unmute yourself. Maybe other reviewers truly had defective mics, but I wonder how many simply left it on mute lol. In their defense, the instructions/manual make zero mention of this and it’s a miss on Beyerdynamic’s part.Honestly that bit of the headset is the only real complaint I have. Whereas the rest of the headset feels quality, the volume/mic mute controls feel a bit cheaper since they’re just simple plastic. It’s also not placed in the most convenient location. But let’s talk about that more in the pros/cons…Pros:- Incredible mic quality. Folks I game with often comment on how good my mic sounds. If you’re getting bad mic sound, it’s because you’re placing the mic far too close to your mouth. This mic wants to be much further away. Try that and it will sound like a studio quality mic.- Great gaming audio. I can hear footsteps and the direction they’re coming from without a problem. As long as the video game you’re playing has good audio mixing, this headset will excel. Almost feels like cheating.- Really good music quality. Not nearly as good as my dedicated audio headset, but still very good for a gaming headset so it could serve as both if you’re looking for an all-in-one headset.- Headset feels like quality, esp. compared to my prior gaming headset.- Ear pads are incredibly comfortable. Way more comfy than my DT770 pros. Super soft pads. I wish my pillow were this soft.Cons:- For the first few days, the headband was a bit too tight and clamping down on my jaw a bit. It clamps down quite a bit more than my other Beyerdynamics. However after maybe a week or so, this is no longer an issue. You can also play with positioning on your head and length, and that can help alleviate- As mentioned above, the box on the cable that controls mute/volume isn’t great, esp. for the price of this headset. It feels like an afterthought that is lower quality and not ideally placed. If they make another version, they should improve this.- No good way to tell that the mic is muted. On my cheaper prior headset, the mic had an indicator light. This was very useful I miss it. I often forget I’m muted.- Not bluetooth capable, but if you’re here you probably already know that.So yeah, overall I would definitely recommend this headset and I would purchase it again in a heartbeat.

Love Beyerdynamic, love my DT 990 Pros, but both MMX 330 Pro units I received have broken mics
As mentioned in the title, I have owned and loved my pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pros for over 10 years now. I was so excited to see Beyerdynamic is now making an open back headset that is very similar with a high quality mic attached.The first set I ordered, I hooked up to my PC and no matter what I did, I couldn’t get any audio input from the microphone. I tried it on my PC in the correct 3.5mm jack, tried changing all OS level settings, multiple applications, nothing worked. Just couldn’t get the mic to work at all.I made sure the mic toggle button on the headset was active and still nothing. I could see that the OS would detect a “noise” when switching the mic to on and off, a very brief input spike demonstrating some electrical switch was toggled and it was sending signal, but I could never get it to detect any other sound.So I sent it back for a replacement. Same thing with my second unit. Just dead mic. No input.I’ve tried it connected to my phone via 3.5mm joining cable to 3.5mm to USB-C. Nothing.I’ve tried it connected to my MacBook Pro via 3.5mm joining cable to 3.5mm jack. Nothing.I’ve tried it connected to my MacBook Pro via 3.5mm joining cable to USB-C. Nothing.I took it into work and tried it on my coworker’s PC and Linux machine, connected via 3.5mm joining cable to 3.5mm. Nothing.I really want to love this headset as it has everything I want. Except the mic hasn’t worked on the two units I’ve received. Maybe it’s the first generation of production on it, as Amazon indicates it went on sale for the first time on August 23, 2024 and here I am on September 24, 2024 (almost exactly a month later).But I’m terrified of getting a working unit only for it to fail later on due to poor manufacturing or QC. I have no idea what’s going wrong or if I’m just the most unlucky consumer of this product, but so far I’m 0 for 2 in terms of units with working microphones.Hopefully others get a chance to enjoy this product and find it to their liking, but I can’t roll the dice anymore on getting a working unit and having it fail later on for whatever reason is causing my current units to fail.

sound quality is amazing, they are SUPER comfy. There is a bit of noise in the background of the mic but it is the best quality ive heard in a gaming headset. with a little noise removal or sound gate its perfectly adequate for streaming or anything like that. I would buy these again especially if there was a wireless version with a stand, oh yeah no stand so make sure you got somewhere soft to put them down or get a headstand. Delivered fast and nicely packaged.
