Compared to some of thebest wired gaming headsets, the MMX 330 Pro is pleasingly slim.
Its also light, which makes it comfortable.
The detachable analog cable is thick yet doesnt weigh down the headset.
All this isnt to say that the sound of the MMX 330 Pro is poor, though.
In this regard, it certainly ranks among the best gaming headsets.
It can also be rotated out of the way easily.
Regardless, its still a bad deal for those in North America.
The only major difference between the 300 and the 330 is the open and closed-back designs.
For a wired gaming headset, the MMX 330 Pro sits towards the higher end of the market.
The Epos H3, one of the best wired gaming headsets, is much cheaper.
For a gaming headset, the MMX 330 Pro is refreshingly slender, with minimal protrusion from the drivers.
Beyerdynamics other headsets can verge on the unwieldy, including theMMX 200 Wireless, which is also less comfortable.
The headband, though, is just as excellent as it is on the MMX 300 Pro.
It also seems durable, although it is easily replaceable (as are the earpads).
They also attract dust too easily, which is hard to remove.
The in-line controller feels well-made too.
It features a volume wheel that operates smoothly and a mic mute button.
The microphone is, however, up to the standards you would expect.
As with the MMX 300 Pro, there are no extra features on the MMX 330 Pro.
The simplicity is refreshing, letting you plug and play without having to worry about connectivity and setups.
Beyerdynamic claims the open-back design adds a greater sense of space, allowing you to perceive sounds more naturally.
While gaming, I did notice a more airy sound, but I wouldnt exactly call this an improvement.
Personally, I prefer the isolation and depth of sound you get from closed-back headsets.
