EPOS Launches Next-Gen Wired Headset
It’s no secret that EPOS make some good gear when it comes to audio, in fact, we have reviewed their products in the past and always found them of the highest quality. So when they announce a new product we always pay attention and see what is on offer. Their newest product to hit the streets is a wired headset called the H3 and it is coming with a host of cool stuff.
The list of features is quite impressive but for me, the ability to be used on every system known to man thanks to using 3.5mm plugs is actually super attractive. No need for multiple different headsets for all of my systems. Based on my history with EPOS you can bet your bottom dollar they will sound great too. Finally, the release price puts it in the “pricey but not too pricey” range of $179 meaning it isn’t as far out of reach as some of their high-end products are.
The EPOS H3 Wired Gaming Headset is available now and you can read the full feature list, straight from the horse’s mouth below:
The Power of Audio
Building on 115 years of audio engineering expertise, the H3 continues the company’s legacy of uncompromised clarity to deliver booming bass and crisp highs for exceptional realism. Combining proven premium sound quality and entry-level pricing, the H3 opens new worlds for players looking to expand their gaming experience and take it to the next level. Further improved audio technology delivers the cues needed for quick reaction times, expected by only the best sound peripherals in gaming. An intuitive volume control on the right ear cup allows for easy adjustments mid-game with the turn of a wheel.
Crisp Mic Quality
The H3 delivers crystal-clear team chat for precise communications that are essential to gaining the winning edge in multiplayer games. A studio-quality microphone transmits clear audio while effortlessly reducing unwanted background noise to instantly fortify essential team plays. The headset’s boom arm clicks upwards for quick lift-to-mute functionality.
Multiplatform Plug-and-Play Functionality
The H3 boasts the capability to seamlessly connect to all devices with a 3.5 mm jack port, including PC, Mac OSX, Nintendo Switch™, Sony PlayStation® and Xbox® devices. The interchangeable one or two-prong 3.5 mm cable offers quick switches between devices for an array of uninterrupted gaming sessions. The H3 is fully compatible with all EPOS external sound cards, including the GSX 300 and GSX 1200 PRO.
Supreme Comfort
Crafted with the EPOS standard of high-quality materials, the H3 offers a refreshed take on gaming headset design for a lightweight yet robust profile. Stainless steel sliders in the headband, hinged earcups and durable padding ensure lasting comfort for gaming sessions of any length. Similarly, ergonomic ear cups and closed-back design guarantee passive noise attenuation.
“The H3 is the perfect headset for players who want to elevate their gaming experience to the next level, while adding value to preconceived expectations of premium entry-level audio products. Quality audio is a core component of how games open new worlds, and the H3 delivers on the promise to take us there,” said Maja Sand-Grimnitz, Director of Global Marketing at EPOS.
