THE PC38X IS BACK IN BLACK An upgraded version of the crowd-favorite PC37X, our PC38X gaming headset is a level up in comfort, build quality, and sonic performance. Now, to celebrate Sennheiser Gaming’s rebrand to EPOS, the PC38X is launching in a new all-black colorway. It’s the same iconic headset, with a refined look to complement any setup. Powered by high-fidelity drivers found on Sennheiser’s venerable GSP 500 and 600 headsets, the PC38X delivers vivid sonic details with an ultra-wide frequency response. It can also be driven more easily than the PC37X, courtesy of a reduced 28-ohm driver impedance. On the exterior, a plush headband with breathable mesh-knit pads and a split design keeps you cooler and better supported for long sessions. Both knit mesh and classic velour earpads are included, so you can choose your preferred fit. Finally, for improved compatibility, the PC38X comes with two cables: one 3.5-millimeter TRRS cable for mobile devices and consoles (no adapter required), and a split cable for PCs. LOCATIONAL ACCURACY: A COMPETITIVE EDGE To put it simply, the PC38X helps you hear enemies and sense your surroundings more clearly. Thanks to the angled drivers and open-back design, it offers better stereo imaging and locational accuracy, allowing you to identify enemy movement, bullets, and incoming threats exactly where they’re coming from. The drivers come from the same family as the Sennheiser GSP 500 and 600—two of the highest-quality gaming headsets on the market. They offer better low-end extension than the original PC37X, so your games and music feel more lifelike than ever before. CLEAR, AMBIANCE-FREE COMMUNICATION The noise-cancelling microphone harkens back to microphones that were originally invented for aviators as part of Sennheiser’s first compact mic project. Designed for high-volume, low-distance recording, the mic is optimized to handle unpleasant pops and hisses—great for Zoom calls and video chatting. Many games today are actually recorded with Sennheiser equipment, which speaks to the quality of Sennheiser’s microphone capsule. Plus, the mic mutes by simply rotating it up, creating a satisfying click so you can feel when it’s been muted.
