00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.160
welcome to my unboxing and first look at something that I'm actually really

00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:12.639
excited about so I never got a chance to try the PC 360s from Sennheiser which

00:00:10.360 --> 00:00:17.880
were basically kind of like an open version of the PC

00:00:14.759 --> 00:00:20.279
350s these are the P well okay I can't

00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:26.880
really show you that this is a black box with absolutely nothing on no these are

00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:30.560
the PC 363 DS which are an upgraded

00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:34.040
version of the PC 360s with a couple of

00:00:30.560 --> 00:00:35.520
tweaks so much like the PC 350 se's

00:00:34.040 --> 00:00:40.640
which it's just like it's ergonomics tweaks more than anything else the 360

00:00:37.800 --> 00:00:43.280
3DS make a couple of cool changes so first of all let's see what Sennheiser

00:00:41.879 --> 00:00:48.120
has to say for themselves 2-year warranty noise cancelling mic uh what

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:54.719
else they got 7.1 Dolby sound card included very cool now it should be

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:57.120
noted guys by 7.1 I mean virtual 7.1 if

00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:02.199
there's any headphone that you see that actually has three speakers per ear

00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:08.040
disregard them they are not a serious product because you have two ears so uh

00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:12.560
you should need exactly two audio sources when they're right next to your

00:01:09.759 --> 00:01:16.520
ears in order to generate surround sound as long as it's being done properly you

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:22.400
do not need a bunch of speakers around your ears and you're sacrificing driver

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:25.200
size for this you know perceived value

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:29.880
of having multiple speakers so um yeah go with virtual surround if you must

00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:32.360
have surround uh Tri XXL velvet ear pads Pro noise cancelling microphone

00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:36.560
integrated volume control in the air cup and a high quality rugged cable is what

00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:41.040
they have to say for themselves that's pretty much it so let's have a look at what we've got included in the Box

00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:46.520
there's a quick start guide which shows you how to get the 3D game one uh sort

00:01:44.759 --> 00:01:54.560
of thing going on which I believe is their USB dad this guy right here so it

00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:57.039
plugs in via USB it's a sound card 3D

00:01:54.560 --> 00:02:01.079
game one engaged oh look at that lights up when you plug it in and it's got like

00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:06.000
little cable manag M things going on here so you can go ahead and run your

00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:07.719
cable through here into here and then

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:11.280
it'll just kind of sit there like that and look all stylish it's got some

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:14.680
weight to it which is really encouraging because you see plenty of these little

00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:18.480
USB sound cards so what they essentially are is they're an amp and a digital

00:02:16.760 --> 00:02:23.280
analog converter it's a it's a sound card and it just runs over USB sound is

00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:29.239
not particularly data intensive so it's not necessary to oh okay interesting

00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:31.319
that's probably what uh oh neat okay so

00:02:29.239 --> 00:02:35.920
you probably push it in order to engage surround and then you turn it off to not

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:39.159
um so you see lots of these things and the included ones often weigh nothing

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:45.200
they seem really cheaply made this one does not it has a metal backing on it

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:46.680
has a nice sliding piece LED um so yeah

00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:50.599
please install the software driver before inserting this into USB port you

00:02:48.440 --> 00:02:54.519
don't have to use that though and quite frankly if you're someone like me who

00:02:52.560 --> 00:03:00.120
already here's an extension cable there you go so you can has nice short cable

00:02:56.680 --> 00:03:02.480
on it if you're someone like me who has

00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:05.959
what is quite frankly a better audio solution than this I mean for all

00:03:04.799 --> 00:03:13.000
however good this might be I have a better one this is an ASUS uh Essence

00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:15.040
one this is a $600 $700 DAC and amp that

00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:21.120
is dedicated for just amplifying headphones I also have a Zonar zents in

00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:26.080
the computer itself so there's one of those um which is also got a headphone

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:30.120
amp on it also a very high quality sound card so I would opt to use them with the

00:03:28.480 --> 00:03:34.599
analog connections and this is what drives me crazy about headsets that come

00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:38.840
with just a USB connection you don't even have the option of plugging them in

00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:42.680
using a higher quality source so you can't buy them as sort of a a stepping

00:03:40.799 --> 00:03:47.120
stone in between well I'm going to upgrade my headphones now and then I'll

00:03:44.200 --> 00:03:50.000
upgrade my sound card later so I love the ones that give you the option by

00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:53.200
including these connectors which I really don't think cost that much and

00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:59.360
including the USB sound card as a separate piece so these feel very

00:03:55.920 --> 00:04:01.799
reminiscent of my HD 555s they have that

00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:06.159
same uh velvet ear cup design they are an open design which means that I can

00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:09.920
hear what's around me and people can hear what I'm listening to like many

00:04:08.040 --> 00:04:14.439
Sennheiser Headphones they have quite a hard foam it's uh doesn't yield much but

00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:19.120
what that means is that they will eventually break in over time and my

00:04:16.359 --> 00:04:23.400
555s are incredibly comfortable now that I've had them for a long time I like

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:26.440
that Sennheiser has a nice wide headband on this this is something that I

00:04:24.919 --> 00:04:30.960
complain about when I see narrow headbands because it just spreads out

00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:34.880
the pressure on your head a bit more and makes them more comfortable out of the

00:04:32.479 --> 00:04:39.000
box now uh the other advantage of an open headphone is that it's good for

00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:43.280
ventilation air is allowed to freely pass in and out and around your ears so

00:04:41.479 --> 00:04:47.199
you might not end up with that like that sweat Mark around the outside of your

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:50.919
head that you can get sometimes with the uh the pleather or I mean okay using

00:04:49.479 --> 00:04:54.960
like genuine leather is better but using like a pleather or a plastic material

00:04:52.639 --> 00:05:00.759
here can cause that got a nice long cable on here so it's one Linus ARM span

00:04:58.039 --> 00:05:07.440
by about another sort of line ARM length so presumably that's around I guess 8T

00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:08.880
long or so no inline controls as you

00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:13.199
guys may or may not have noticed and personally I prefer this because inline

00:05:11.080 --> 00:05:16.080
controls you find kind of fumble for them in the middle of something it's

00:05:14.280 --> 00:05:20.000
it's not actually that great so the microphone is controlled by simply hold

00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:24.600
on I don't know if you guys are going to hear this there's a little click there

00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:29.160
raising and lowering the microphone we'll mute it and activate it just like

00:05:26.960 --> 00:05:33.080
that and then volume control is done with a DOT here on the right headphone

00:05:31.400 --> 00:05:36.919
so I I prefer this I think this is better than fumbling around for it and

00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:40.639
it's very intuitive I want to mute my mic I put my mic up I want it on I put

00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:44.479
it down uh the mic is adjustable but only a little bit I do like retractable

00:05:42.440 --> 00:05:48.120
mics better than these boom mics so you can adjust where it sits in relation to

00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:51.240
your head it's noise cancelling so you've got um that's the noise

00:05:49.840 --> 00:05:55.160
cancellation mic on the back and that's the one for your actual voice but what

00:05:53.280 --> 00:05:59.319
you'll notice is that for someone like me with a big schn um if I bring this

00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:02.720
into the correct position close to my mouth here here I'm going to be

00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:06.520
breathing on it directly so as long as the noise cancellation is good we

00:06:04.039 --> 00:06:09.880
shouldn't have too much difficulty not much in terms of ear cup rotation

00:06:08.400 --> 00:06:13.240
however unless your ears are positioned sort of on the front or the back of your

00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:17.919
head that's not really going to be an issue and size adjustments are ample

00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:24.560
check this out so I could wear them comfortably with about this much space in the top of my head and then if I was

00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:26.120
a very small person and I wanted to wear

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:31.720
headphones then I would wear them about like that so you're going to not have too much trouble with that um non-

00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:38.039
detachable cable I think that pretty much covers it

00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:39.319
nice big ear cup so even with um even

00:06:38.039 --> 00:06:43.880
with wearing earrings you can see they've got little blocks in there so these are little tweaks that Sennheiser

00:06:42.280 --> 00:06:49.639
makes to make sure that their audio products sound better than other people's audio products there's your

00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:52.919
open ventilation holes in the side there um so yeah so I should probably show you

00:06:51.080 --> 00:06:56.400
guys this one last thing so even though I wear earrings there's still no

00:06:54.840 --> 00:06:59.879
pressure on the earrings against the side of my head and that's one of the

00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:04.240
things that I find so comfortable about these nice extra large ear cup style

00:07:02.400 --> 00:07:07.599
headphones from the likes of Sennheiser thank you for checking out this unboxing

but it turned out that it was
