General Description
For FPS and movie enthusiasts used to 2-channel headsets, experiencing the multichannel soundscape of the PC 333D is a revelation. It’s like switching from mono to stereo or black & white to color all at once. 7.1 Dolby Headphone channels create detail that normally isn’t perceptible – to make 3D games and movies amazingly realistic and exciting. When gamers switch the 3D G4ME1 7.1 USB soundcard to multichannel, they can locate off-screen sounds with 360° accuracy at even the noisiest LAN party. Instead of right, left or front, you can tell precisely where a sound came from, how far away the source is and what direction it’s moving in. It’s a massive competitive advantage, even for the world-class professionals from mTw who helped us design the PC 333D.
The hyper-realism and intensity of the multichannel soundscape is even better thanks to the excellent Sennheiser speakers and the circumaural, closed-acoustic ear cups that shut out background noise. If you do need to interact with the outside world, the PC 333D gives you an easy way to do it – you just flip up one ear cup using the swivel DJ Hinge. In-game chat and internet telephony is easy, too. There’s a first-class noise canceling microphone and an intuitive volume control that’s integrated directly in the right ear cup. PC only at this time.
Features
- More spacious sound field - 7.1 channel surround sound powered by Dolby Headphone to accurately pinpoint noises from all directions in the gamescape
- Superb Sennheiser stereo sound - Sennheiser quality speakers deliver great acoustic performance from games, music, movies and internet calls
- Great for LAN gaming - the circumaural closed acoustic design of XL ear cups blocks out noise around you for hyper-realistic gaming with total immersion
- Quick team talk - at just a swivel of the DJ Hinge on the right ear cup, you have direct contact with your teammates
- Noise canceling clarity - the professional microphone reduces ambient noise for crystal-clear conversations without the need to shout
- Intuitive design and automatic microphone mute – the volume control is integrated in the right ear cup and you can mute the microphone by raising the boom arm
- Essential extra – supplied with a protective carrying pouch
- Peace of mind – thanks to the 2-year international warranty

Glossary
| Cable length |
| The cable length is usually measured between the anti-kink sleeves of the cable (cable length without connectors). |
| Frequency response (headphones) |
| The frequency response of a pair of headphones is given within limits defined by the manufacturer. |
| Frequency response (microphone) |
| The frequency response of a microphone is given within the limits defined by the manufacturer. In studio condenser microphones it is generally within the range of between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. |
| Impedance |
| Impedance expresses the AC resistance of a microphone or a set of headphones. It is dependent on frequency and is given at 1 kHz as the so-called nominal impedance. Impedance is measured in ohms. In recent years, an industrial standard has developed, setting the impedance of headphones at 50 or 600 ohms. Sennheiser headphones are manufactured according to this standard, thus practically ruling out connection problems. With microphones, the input impedance of the following microphone amplifier should have at least three times the value of the nominal impedance, in order to prevent it from unnecessarily attenuating the microphone signal. |
| Pick-up pattern |
| Also known as polar pattern, directivity. According to their acoustic design, microphones differ in their sensitivity towards sound from different directions. Pressure microphones have a sensitivity that is largely independent of direction (omni-directional pick-up pattern). Pressure gradient microphones have the pick-up patterns wide cardioid, cardioid, super-cardioid or figure-of-eight. Interference microphones can be used to achieve a further concentration of the pick-up pattern (lobar pick-up pattern). As a special case, dummy head microphones achieve the pick-up pattern of the human ear/head (dummy head stereo). |
| Sound pressure level (SPL) |
| Due to the impractical numerical values, the sound pressure is usually given as the logarithmic value of the sound pressure level according to the equation: dB SPL = 20 x log (po / 0.00002 Pa). The abbreviation SPL (sound pressure level) is added in order to make a clear distinction from other uses of dB. The reference sound pressure, which is at the same time the threshold of hearing, is then 0 dB SPL. The threshold of pain is 140 dB SPL. A difference in the sound pressure level of 1 dB is just about perceptible, while a doubling of the sound pressure corresponds to 6 dB and a doubling of the volume corresponds to a rise of 10 dB. |
