German audio equipment manufacturer beyerdynamic has recently announced the launch of its 2nd Gen Gaming Headset MMX 300 in India for a whopping price of INR 29,999. Following the path of the original beyerdynamic MMX 300 which has been a popular choice among listeners who crave for crystal clear audio, the 2nd Gen headset comes with a closed-back design with HiFi audio output.
Inspired by the construction quality of the aviation grade pilot headsets developed by the manufacturer, the MMX 300 comes with what the company claims ‘a cockpit-proven microphone’. The closed design is boasted to attenuate ambient noise by 18 decibels. The company believes that these features along with a tonal precision gives gamers a critical strategic advantage as the 2nd Gen MMX 300 is capable of bringing out the finest details including rustling in the bushes or creeping steps which every PUBG player can relate pretty much to.
The beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Gen) is built with sprung steel headbands and solid aluminium yokes, and is equipped with a 1.2 metre long cable which can be doubled to 2.4 metres using a special extension cable. The remote control in the cable controls important functions such as volume with ease and mutes the microphone when privacy is required.
The connection cable on the new beyerdynamic MMX 300 is made from the same robust polyurethane as its predecessor. Except that it is now detachable. The cable thus not only withstands pressure exerted by the castors on office chairs rolling over it, it also survives someone standing on it in the heat of battle; rather than tear the headset from the wearer’s head, the connector coupling releases effortlessly from the housing.
The headphone also comes with beyerdynamic Manufaktur that allows individuals to custom-design their headsets as per their personal preferences. You can purchase the beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Gen) in India either on HeadphoneZone.in or Amazon.in.
