JBL Quantum 200 wired over-ear gaming headphones (black)

The JBL Quantum 200 headset connects to most Playstation or Xbox controllers and offers immersive sound with hard-hitting effects. Gaming headphones that are beyond the basics I'll admit - it's been a while since my Grand Theft Auto and NBA 2K heyday. But while I might not be up on the latest video games, I do know headphones. And few personal audio companies deliver more sonic bang for your buck than JBL. Their lightweight Quantum 200 headset works for console or PC gaming, and delivers clear sound tuned for deep bass emphasis. Wired connection to your game controller or PC The Quantum 200 headset comes with a durable cable that's covered in a tough, braided fabric and terminated with a good old-fashioned 3.5mm miniplug. So it will connect to the headphone jack at the bottom of your Xbox ONE or PS4 controller (and some third-party Nintendo Switch controllers). You should be able to make the same type of connection on the forthcoming Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 controllers, based on the specs released by those companies. JBL includes an adapter for tower computers and laptops that require a separate headphone and mic connection. This splitter turns the single miniplug into a double miniplug for connecting to the PC. Battle-tested sound This headset is part of a new line of Quantum Series gaming headphones from JBL . It is one of the entry-level offerings, so it doesn't have some of the customization features and connection options that you get further up the line. But good news if you're main concern is better game sound - the 200s feature the same large 50mm drivers found in all of the other Quantum headsets. JBL's special headphone sound signature has been honed by years and years of research and exhaustive user testing. We've visited their U.S. headquarters in California and seen their impressive testing facilities - they take this stuff seriously. It's helped them develop a sound profile that's been proven to satisfy most listeners. For gamers, of course,
