PC 360 G4ME: New state-of-the-art headset promises ice-cool gaming for professional gamers
With the launch of a new flagship headset for professional gamers, Sennheiser Communications has raised the bar for pro gaming equipment. As the follow-up to the hugely successful PC 350, the PC 360 G4ME had a lot to live up to – and it doesn’t disappoint. Sennheiser speaker technology and a top-notch noise canceling microphone deliver outstanding hi-fi performance. But it’s the open acoustics and intuitive controls that will really get professional pulses racing. The open design creates a noticeably more natural soundscape and ensures continuous airflow to keep users cool. Luxurious, powerful, innovative and intuitive – at the very highest level, the new PC 360 G4ME is the new headset to beat.
With its trademark Sennheiser stereo sound and open design, this pioneering headset puts on the sort of acoustic performance that sound engineers and professional gamers dream of. As top pro “Ave” points out, “… hearing where your opponent is before you can see him is key in professional gaming. The PC 360 gives you that advantage.”
The soundscape is not only richer and more detailed; it’s more authentic, too. Although the 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. With games, music, movies and internet telephony, the PC 360 delivers a more natural sound.
The PC 360 doesn’t just look and sound like a high-end headset, it feels like one, too.
The perforated ear cup design essentially works like a personal air conditioning system, maintaining a steady flow of fresh air that cools and dries the head, so the wearer can focus on the game without fear of overheating. The velvet-soft XXL ear pads spoil gamers still further, ensuring a luxurious, super-comfortable fit. And it’s not just the wearer who’ll appreciate the quality of the PC 360. The pro-standard microphone cancels out virtually all background noise, so conversations with fellow gamers or skypers are clear as a bell. Even at raucous gaming sessions, there’s no need to shout.
Sennheiser Communications prides itself on the convenient, intuitive design of its headsets and, of course, the state-of-the-art PC 360 is no exception. Its quick-access controls give professional gamers another crucial advantage. The volume control is integrated directly in the right ear cup, which avoids any fumbling to find an in-line unit when you need to concentrate. A simple hand-to-ear movement is all it takes. The same goes for the clever microphone design. To mute the microphone, users just raise the boom.
The PC 360 G4ME enters the market in a really impressive style as it was already awarded with the outstanding international product design award – red dot design award 2010. This year, judges received submissions from close to 60 countries in all and selected award winners across 17 different product categories. Winning the red dot awards once more highlights Sennheiser Communications’ ability to combine superb audio expertise with excellent design capabilities.
The PC 360 G4ME is available from March 2010.
