The gaming headset everyone is talking about
Sennheiser's "co-brand" Epos presented a much-talked-about gaming headset model.
Serious players, especially multiplayer games, definitely know what a quality headset with a microphone means and therefore usually give up cheap models. Not only do they not produce a high-quality sound that can be easily distinguished from the comments of teammates, but also their construction is often such that our ears quickly start to hurt due to a poor fit. But is it really necessary to shell out 200, 300 or even more euros for quality headphones? No.
EPOS H3 are wired headphones that offer a lot for €119. Their most obvious advantage is definitely their universality, as they can be connected to any device that has a 3.5mm headphone jack, which means they work with PCs, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch consoles, smartphones (if they have a headphone jack) and more. Another good feature becomes apparent as soon as you put them on your head. Namely, they are extremely quality-made, quite light (270 g), and the earpieces are quite large and designed in such a way that they really well fit even slightly larger ears. The headphones do not have an active noise canceling system, but since they seal very well, this is almost unnecessary.
What about the sound? Among the technical data, we find that the frequency range of headphones is 10-30,000 Hz. In practice, this usually means very expressive low tones, which is definitely welcome in games. And with the EPOS H3, this is distinctly true. What about the microphone? This is located on the lever on the left side of the headset, its frequency range is 10-18,000 Hz, and the recording is optimized for use in games. In practice, this means that the sound is slightly higher and slightly muffled, a little like that in airplanes, but of course inappropriately more distinct. The microphone is designed in such a way that its operation is interrupted when the lever is lifted up. So no "mute"... On the right earpiece there is a volume control button, which is more or less the only thing that can be a little awkward. The button is designed in such a way that it cannot be grasped, but rotated by placing a finger on it. And since the bumps are quite small, it takes quite a while to find the right spot.
