Sennheiser isn’t a name you usually associate with gaming headsets—the company hasn’t, after all, traditionally been a player in that market, and its entry into it hasn’t come with much fanfare. All the same, we were pretty psyched when our review unit of the company’s new G4ME 333D headset came in. Gaming headset pedigree or no, Sennheiser is known for making some of the best headphones around. In one respect, we weren’t disappointed. The PC 333D is, hands down, the best-sounding gaming headset we’ve ever tested. For gaming, the sound quality and 3D positioning are fantastic. Even for music, the PC 333D is fantastic, with a phenomenal dynamic range, crystal-clear highs and lows that are powerful without being muddy. It is, in short, the best sound quality you’re going to find in a gaming headset. Construction is decent overall, if a bit plasticky, and features a “dj hinge,” which lets you swivel the right can forward or backward about 45 degrees so you can keep one ear free to hear your environment. Another cool feature of the 333D is the microphone boom, which automatically mutes your mic when it’s swiveled to the upright position. The set can be used with analogue jacks, or as a USB device with the included external USB soundcard—a feature we always appreciate.
Whenever we plug in a new headset to review here on TechRadar, we inevitably end up using Sennheiser's PC 350 or PC 161 as one of the key comparisons for what a high-end set of headphones designed for gaming should sound like. This much-loved pair are getting on a bit now, though, and a complete range refresh from Sennheiser just arrived in the office. Will our well-used reference kit finally get put to one side?The PC 333D isn't a direct replacement for the PC 350 – for that you'll want the more costly PC 360s – but it is priced more or less identically to the outgoing favourites. It's a lighter-weight kit, with smaller drivers and a more plasticky feel.While the build quality may not feel quite like a £100 headset, it's tough and there are a few features designed specifically for gaming. The volume control is built into the right-hand earpiece for quick access, for example, and the mic mutes itself when you push the boom up.The most impressive part of the whole package is, as it should be, the audio characteristics of the speakers themselves. A massive 14 – 22,000Hz frequency range suggests that this is no ordinary set of cans.
