No more blaming your headphones when you lose a game, the MMX 300 PRO are too good for excuses.

Beyerdynamic has released its latest headphone model: the MMX 300 PRO gaming headset. This third-generation model isn’t just another flashy device. It aims to bridge the gap between professional studio gear and competitive gaming.

The MMX 300 PRO use Beyerdynamic’s STELLAR.45 drivers – the same technology in their well-known DT 900 Pro X. For gamers, this translates to a level of audio precision that can give you a competitive edge.

Imagine pinpointing enemy footsteps with laser-like accuracy or experiencing the full power of in-game explosions. That’s the promise of the MMX 300 PRO.

“The MMX 300 PRO is a headset that not only offers the best sound, but also meets the demanding needs of today’s gamers in terms of comfort and workmanship. We are convinced that this headset will be a long-lasting companion for ambitious gamers.” says Andreas Rapp, Beyerdynamic Managing Director.

Crafted with typical German precision, the MMX 300 PRO are closed-back headphones that boast an expansive 5-40,000 Hz frequency range.

This isn’t just about specs on paper. It’s about capturing every detail of the gaming soundscape – from quiet background noises to loud effects.

According to Beyerdynamic, the bass and treble profiles have been refined compared to previous models. This results in a sound signature that excels not just in games, but for music as well.

But it’s not all about sound quality.

Clear communication is important in team-based games, and the MMX 300 PRO rise to the challenge with their high-quality condenser microphone. This 10mm mic ensures that your callouts and strategies are heard clearly, even in the heat of battle.

The MMX 300 PRO work with many devices. Their 48-ohm impedance and included adapters let you plug them into gaming PCs, consoles, and even phones.

The package includes both a dual 3.5mm plug for separate audio and mic inputs on PCs, as well as a combo adapter for devices with a single jack.

While some gaming headsets scream “gamer” with garish RGB lighting, the MMX 300 PRO take a more refined approach. Their sleek black exterior is subtly accented with red details, projecting a professional image while still acknowledging their gaming DNA.

Yet, if you want to make them unique, Beyerdynamic’s MANUFAKTUR service lets you customize them. You can choose different ear pad materials, add pictures to the ear cups, or even get your name engraved, which is great for streamers who want to stand out.

But what it may lack in the default aesthetics, it makes up for in comfort and durability.

They have plush velour ear pads and a specially designed headband recess to reduce fatigue during marathon gaming sessions.

These headphones are also built with high-grade materials including metal components engineered to withstand daily use and the intensity of competitive gaming environments.

And, the drive system is manufactured within tight tolerances and measured several times during production to ensure exceptional audio fidelity and long-lasting performance.

Beyerdynamic also offers replaceable parts, such as the cables, earcups, and headband, allowing users to maintain their headset’s performance over time.
