A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

I wanted new headphones for myself, because. the old ones fell apart, I was lucky they gave me new LX-3000 headphones, I’m happy with the thing, especially if I got them for free, as they say, “You don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.” In general, in general terms, the headphones fully justified themselves. I really liked them, the thing to communicate is, the sound is good, there are basses (low frequencies). The microphone rotates as you like. They sit well, the volume margin is at a height, the materials are frankly Chinese, as they say they look falling apart, but in fact they sit well and nothing is going to fall off. The headband is made of plastic, as for me this is not a plus or a minus. There is a remote control, in general the headphones are good.

Pros

Good, as for me, sound, not perfect of course, but good. I did not change the settings, as I connected it, I immediately arranged the sound. Medium-good noise isolation, muffles the rumble from a running cooler, and from the noise of a TV with not too much volume. The ear pads are soft, pleasant, the headphones lie on the head like a glove, they “sit” tightly on the head, but do not press, there is no feeling that they will fall off me now. A convenient control panel, there are volume keys for the speakers of the headphones themselves, as well as a microphone mute key (when the mode is active, it glows red, so you won’t confuse it). The cord without a braid, quite thick, bought headphones much cheaper, in those headphones the wire was braided, in my opinion, if you handle the thing carefully, then nothing will break even without a braid. Height adjustment has a clear course, is fixed, does not slip anywhere spontaneously. : It is convenient to listen to the steps in MMO shooters like CS, PB, etc.

Cons

As for me, a short cord, I have to pull the headphones across the entire table, then down to the system unit, then the wire came out in the "tightness" (length 1.8 m), but this problem does not cause me much inconvenience. There were problems with the connection, because. they are not connected via standard 3.5 connectors, but via USB, I had to search a little on the Internet for a solution to the problem, because the sound from the headphones did not want to come out. The microphone is directional and a little quiet for me, you have to hold it right in front of your mouth and unscrew the gain by almost 50%. At first glance, it seems that the headphones are falling apart, the design creaks, backlash, the plastic does not fit evenly, but I repeat, if you don’t break it on purpose, nothing will break.
