Adapting the acclaimed MDR-MV1 driver units into an open-back design, the headset delivers a wide frequency response from super-low bass to crisp highs with integrated 3 balanced back ducts for natural, rich bass. Weighing just 199g, it remains comfortable for long sessions, and its collaboration with PlayStation sound creators yields a dedicated EQ RPG/Adventure mode for enhanced game world immersion. Best for PC and PS5 gamers needing a wide, accurate soundstage and natural sidetone, especially for sound-detailed RPGs where clear comms via the noise-cancelling boom mic matter.
