Highlights & Key Technologies
High-Quality Condenser Microphone
At the end of the adjustable yet sturdy boom arm rests a high-performance 10 mm condenser microphone. It's bigger and higher quality than most standard lavalier mics, not to mention that dinky little device in your laptop. The cardioid directional pattern zeros in on speech and reduces background noise, ensuring everyone hears you clearly in-game and on calls.
Ultra-Easy Installation
This add-on is designed to work perfectly with the Sennheiser HD 620S and HD 500 series headphones. You simply plug it in and twist to lock. No tools, adhesive patches, or instruction manuals required. The in-line remote control puts volume and mute at your fingertips.
Universal Connectivity
The 3.5 mm jack connector ensures plug-and-play compatibility with computers, consoles, and practically any source that accepts headsets or a USB-C adapter dongle. That means most tablets and smartphones will also work via an adapter. A Y-split adapter is included for computer setups with separate headphone and microphone jacks.
Premium Build Quality
This is an attractive piece of kit with a stable yet flexible boom arm. It feels right at home on the HD 500 series and HD 620S with high-quality materials to match. Crucially, you'll only have one cable, not two, because who wants cable management on their head? Speaking of keeping things neat and tidy, you also get 2 spare foam mic pop screens.
Unlock Your Headphones' Potential
By adding this mic to your Sennheiser headphones, you get a high-end gaming headset with zero latency and a soundstage to rival anything on the market. Or an excellent option for work calls. You'll look great wearing your stylish cans recording podcasts and videos, too. It's time to stop switching headsets and start enjoying brilliant audiophile sound with everything you do.
