Drop PC38X Gaming Headset

Our PC38X has quite the pedigree. With tens of thousands of units sold—and a nearly 5-star average review—it started as a project with the audiophile icon Sennheiser. Then, it launched as a collab with EPOS (Sennhesier’s recently sold gaming division). Now, it’s all Drop—with the same design and manufacturing that have made it such a hit, year after year. 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 its predecessor, 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. 

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.

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 Skype 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.
