Features

Overview: The Sennheiser U 320 gaming headset is designed to give you a better gaming experience. It works with all major gaming platforms, including Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Mac. The amplified headset's over-ear design and noise-canceling microphone allow you to clearly communicate with teammates or opponents. The U 320 is lightweight (10 ounces) and comfortable for hours of use.

Earcup Design: The U 320 over-ear headset features soft, padded earcups mounted on Sennheiser's new patented CircleFlex system. This ensures the earpads swivel around their base to instantly adjust to your ears. The open-acoustic design keeps your head cool for longer playing time.

Amplified Sound: The built-in low-noise amplifier boosts the audio for enhanced clarity. You can ear minute details in the game audio, as well as clear communications with your teammates and opponents. The in-line remote's dual volume control gives you the ability to independently adjust the game volume and the level of gaming chat. The switchable bass boost adds to the realism of your gaming experience. The Side Tone switch lets you monitor your own voice in the headphones, if desired.

Noise-canceling Microphone: The built-in noise-canceling microphone filters out background noise so you can hear instructions and game talk clearly. The mic has a frequency response of 70-15kHz, a high sensitivity rating (-38dBV/PA), and a uni-directional pickup pattern. The microphone is on a 5-1/2" boom that can be rotated 180° so you can position it as you like, or swing it up and out of the way when not using it. Raising the boom to the upright position automatically engages the microphone mute.

Connections: The U 320's 16-foot long main cable has an in-line remote and a USB Type A terminal, which plugs into the game console. Included with the headphones are two audio cables: the game audio cable and the voice chat cable. The game audio cable connects between the TV and the headphone cable's USB terminal, while the voice chat cable connects between the in-line remote and the game controller.

Note: If the TV is connected to the game console via HDMI, the TV must have RCA audio outputs for the headphones to pick up game audio, or you must have an optional audio adapter from PS3 or Xbox.
