PC37X for PS5

Go to solution Solved by OfficialTechSpace,

The 3.5mm end on the PC37X should stick right into the controller, but the mic won't work without an adapter because there's no dedicated input jack. The same goes for any other non-USB or non-wireless headset. There's been an upgraded version of PC37X since released, it's called the PC38X. The PC38X is probably one of the best "gaming" headsets you can buy as an all-in-one before you start DIY'ing and adding ModMics to more technically capable headphones. If your budget is ~$150 and under, you don't have many other reasonable options. The Beyerdynamic TYGR 300 R is $169, which some might argue has a more pleasing tonality (varies by preference). It's certainly much warmer, and carries more sub-bass.

I am thinking of getting a new headset for my ps5. I currently have an arctis 1 from steelseries but the right side died and the cable is worn. I am looking at the pc37x headset and want recommendations about it or if I should get something else for under $150. I already know that you need an adapter for pc37x.
