About this item

  • 50mm carbon dynamic drivers for immersive JBL Quantum Sound: The 50mm carbon dynamic drivers use a unique carbon damping material to deliver a immersive, detailed sound experience that brings crucial cues into focus. Together with Hi-Res Audio support they help you track movement, timing, and positioning with even greater accuracy.
  • JBL QuantumENGINE: Use your device-specific JBL QuantumENGINE dashboard to customize your preferred sound profile, spot where in-game sounds are coming from with a real-time sound visualizer, activate JBL Quantum Spatial Sound, reduce keyboard noise, optimize the mic's performance and noise reduction. The free PC suite JBL QuantumENGINE lets you create custom profiles for every game, keeping your setup tuned to your strengths. It works on all platforms and connects all your JBL Quantum headsets simultaneously.
  • JBL Quantum Spatial Sound: JBL Quantum Spatial Sound, powered by JBL QuantumENGINE drops you right into the game. By pulling in more in‑game audio detail, it builds true-to-life reflections and reverb, so sound moves naturally around you. Tuned across multiple frequency ranges, it delivers pinpoint positional audio—so you hear footsteps before they’re on screen, track enemy movement in real time, stay locked into the action, and react faster when the fight flips.
  • Cardioid Noise Cancelling boom mic: The 6mm unidirectional mic with cardioid pattern makes sure your team can always hear you loud and clear but doesn't hear your keyboard thanks to the noise reduction technology through JBL QuantumENGINE. And the mic is also detachable for extra convenience.
