Beyerdynamic MMX 200 Wireless review - the best out-of-the-box experience?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- Prawn here with my review of the @beyerdynamic MMX 200 wireless. Quite frankly this is a fantastic headset for a number of reasons. It's comfortable, capable and multi-device compatible too. The most immediately obvious thing that's awesome about it is the microphone. Which sounds incredible for a headset microphone, with no tweaking really necessary.
This headset boasts some punchy 40mm drivers, which are pleasantly tuned with Beryerdynamic's skills to make for a nice hefty bass and decent soundscape too. It's got great positional audio, making it ideal for FPS games like Escape from Tarkov and it is also epic in other ways too. With a closed back design, faux leather earcushions and an smart design it blocks a lot of external noise and lets you fully focus on your gaming.
The biggest downside for me is the controls, which are a bit finnicky, but otherwise it's a great headset for the money and so easy to game with for hours and hours.

Thank you for the review. Does the microphone/headset work on a PC over wired USB C connection?
I recently tried this headset out and wanted to love it, but quality control is really holding this thing back. My unit produced a constant ticking sound in the left earcup when connected via Low Latency mode. And I wasn't the only one. Several people online have reported this issue and Beyer hasn't been able to resolve it for them outside of shipping them new units which often also had the same issue. Hope they can get things under control, because they definitely have a great product on their hands!
That’s the one thing that puts me off buying these. I hate having to return stuff.
Did you manage to test it for some competitive fps games like Apex and Valorant?
Oddball question, but would you prefer this over the Epos H3Pro Hybrid?
Will these work with the Steelseries Sonar app
I recently got this headset specifically for the mic. It impresses from that aspect. It also does have a tiny red led that lights up at the mic input when muted so you can see you are muted. The quality of the build seems very solid. The sound is terrific and seems to be very matched in left and right ears. BUT, with all that said, this headset makes me cry a little. Maybe I'm spoiled but the lack of dual Bluetooth and sound sense of for those price point as does the lack of side tone and game/chat mix. I am a bit put off by the need to have the manual in front of me to understand the secret hands by Ake that is the crazy button combos too get functions working. Maybe I will learn. I think if I keep the headset, it will end up being a situational headset that I use in area where it shines such as games with footfall steps. It shines there. But otherwise, I still prefer my steelseries as a daily driver and I have the audeze Maxwell's sitting in a box waiting to bed opened up. In regards too dinner complaints I've seen about the battery life, I disagree. It provides more than you need unless you just don't have a life.
Thank you for sharing bro.
I have used the Nova pro wireless headset for almost 2 years and recently bought the Maxwell, but had this one under my radar for over half a year now. I really miss a good sounding mic (before the Nova Pro wireless I had the GSP 670 and it was a winner) and working a lot from home good mic is very big. I would really appreciate it if you could update here as for your personal opinion about this one versus the Maxwell
I'm buying this.
Does it have 3d sound for ps5
I’ve been looking at this headset, and I have a question. Both, my desktop and laptop PCs have USB-C. I also have a Steam Deck for on-the-go, which also has USB-C.
Can I utilize the USB-C dongle, without the A, and should this work for Steam Deck? I’d like to have one headset for all three items.
I’m still looking at a couple of other options, including IEMs, and am watching a lot of reviews. I just wanted to ask. I’d be interested, still, with the option of 3.5mm analog cable. But .. Beyer Dynamic chose to use the analog cord as the object of a cash grab. It’s almost turned me away.
Thanks. Just stumbled across your channel. Sub’d.
Yeah it should work with Steam Deck just fine.
Hey man, how would you say these compare to the DT 700 Pro X? Is the sound quality on par? Or lesser?
Wondering the same.
Personally, I find oval ear cups work better with glasses arms, but the ear cups do look plush enough to maybe not cause an issue.
I will switch from the 1. gen Blackshark v2 pro (not the 2023 version). Play most of the time cs2 (fps games). Would you recommend it? Thanks for the nice video though!
This one ruclips.net/video/hh7NJ7Miza0/видео.html
@@TheProvokedPrawn yes, I’m using this right now and will now use the mmx200. I hope the mmx200 will be a good choice!
@@madde88 I'd say so then yes. I prefer it anyway. In fact I also prefer it over the 2023 model
@@TheProvokedPrawn thanks for the reply. I wish you a nice Sunday!
@@madde88 how do you like the mmx200? I am thinking about buying them over the blackshark v2 pros
Thanks for the review. I was interested right up until the “no monitoring” part - and it would need to be zero latency at that. Ah well, maybe in a future firmware update if the underlying hardware is actually capable I suppose. Cheers
Yeah it always surprises me when there's no mic monitoring but also some people just don't like it. So you can't please everyone 🤷🏼♂️ I can get on without it here but the downside is without it you can't be sure when you're actually muted. At least not easily.
@@TheProvokedPrawnYeah, I hear you on the personal preference part and I completely agree with you on that. I'm just so used to having it at this point that not having it is a bit distracting for me, and I also worry that I'll speak too loudly since I can't hear myself. Tks.
@@jason01095 me too
A lot about this headset is “such a shame” because it looks pretty decent. No sidetone on headset like this is INSANE. No dual wireless/bluetooth is INSANE. I know a lot of people that play on PS4 and then join Discord voice chats from their mobile phones and then piped their headsets that support dual modes - Turtle Beach and Steelseries headsets for example.
This or Nova Pro Wireless?

I find them way too quiet
Like brutton pushed
Love brutton returned
First
It becomes increasingly suspicious that everytime you "review" something, you seem to rave about it. Makes these reviews seem less genuine and more like you are doing the bidding of the companies providing these products (and compensation) to you. Might not be the case; that's just the way it seems.
Thanks for the feedback but I don't think that's right. I made criticisms too? Or maybe you missed them. The buttons are confusing and awkward, there's a lack of mic sidetone, the earcups might be too small for some people, etc. otherwise I happen to like an expensive headset from a well known company. I'm not compensated for anything, just giving my honest opinion and trying to be objective about it.
From memory I also had complaints about other headsets recently. I said Razer's Blackshark V2 Pro lacked bass and I didn't like it for that, Logitech's G Pro X 2 doesn't have a good microphone, Corsair's HS80 new model has a worse mic than the previous version. I always find things for and against and try to give an honest opinion. That's all reviews are though so...
P.s. if I was compensated I'd have to declare it by law. And I've never been sponsored.
@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks for you reply and explanation. I’ve been following your channel for a while and that was just the impression I had gotten. If that was a wrong characterization of you and your channel, then I apologize for coming off as accusatory. Perhaps it was my own perceived bias and suspicion of online reviews rather than your specific content. I’ll watch and listen more closely in the future for honest criticism of products as opposed to only paying attention to (oftentimes hyperbolic) praise. Cheers and thanks for the content. Especially enjoyed your Lian-Li builds.
@@WumpusAmungus I appreciate the input and will consider what to do in future.
did you even watch the video ?? lol
@@TheProvokedPrawn so this is exactly what I’m struggling with too. I agreed with everything you said in that comment. What do you think is the best all around head set with good audio and good sounding mic.
battery life is mediocre unfortunately , too bad
