Gaming to go: Sennheiser Communications introduces its portable PC 300 gaming headset

Sennheiser Communications announces the release of the PC 300 G4ME headset. The tiny, portable headset is designed for people who love gaming, chatting, listening to music and watching movies on their laptops and portable media players.

Traveling light

Every gamer has a favorite headset for LAN events and conventions, but these can be bulky and heavy. The PC 300 G4ME is ultra-lightweight, yet delivers Sennheiser’s premium audio performance and quality, in a package not much larger than a matchbox.

Great sound

The PC 300 G4ME utilizes capsules from Sennheiser’s famed CX 300-II ear-canal phones, which are praised in the consumer electronics industry for their rich sound and excellent suppression of ambient noise. And as Sennheiser is also a legendary microphone manufacturer, the PC 300 G4ME includes a high-quality Sennheiser microphone, which offers clear speech intelligibility. The headset also includes an in-line volume control and three sizes of soft silicone sleeves, which guarantee a comfortable and secure fit that enhances bass.

Plug and play

The PC 300 G4ME uses two 3.5 mm plugs to connect to PCs and laptops; one for the headphones and the other for the microphone. The package also includes a quick-disconnect 6.5-foot extension cable. The headset and extension cable can be conveniently packed away in the supplied pouch.
