QPAD/Beyerdynamic Pro Gaming Headphones [Based on Aviation Headset Technology]

QPAD in partnership with the German high-end headphone manufacturer Beyerdynamic have announced a new pro-gamers headset complete with noise cancelling microphone aimed specifically at gamers looking for high-end sound quality and which utilises technologies employed in aviation headsets.

Introduced by Thomas Gallus Jensen, Sales Director of QPAD, who states ‘We at QPAD feel privileged and excited that we have been given the opportunity of teaming up with one of the world’s absolute leading developers of professional headphones as Beyerdynamic truly is. We are confident that the “Q” headset will be at the top of every gamers’ wish list, as it is nothing but first class in every aspect.’

The QPAD “Q” pro-gamers headset boasts a particularly impressive frequency response of 5Hz to 30KH (which, incidentally, allows the headset to reproduce sounds that lay outside the range of human hearing) whilst, according to QPAD,  ‘closed construction absorbs external sounds by approximately 18 decibels (dBA), which makes the immaculate reproduction of sound possible even in loud environments and turbulent LAN parties’.

QPAD/Beyerdynamic Pro Gaming Headphones Key Features:

• Closed headphone
• Excellent ambient noise attenuation (approx. 18 dBA)
• Ergonomic design for high comfort
