MMX 150

META PICK – ALWAYS YOUR RIGHT CHOICE ​​​​​​​In gaming, every day is different. And yet, there is an easy way to choose the best champion – with the META PICK. The combination of META VOICE Microphone, Augmented Mode and the well-known beyerdynamic studio sound makes the MMX 150 the META PICK for every passionate gamer.

PROFESSIONAL SOUND FOR A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE 

Our beyerdynamic drivers are the meta pick in premium studio-quality sound. That much is proven by the MMX 150’s high-resolution sound. The 40mm drivers built into the MMX have been specially optimised for gaming by our acoustic engineers.

This results in a clearer and more precise sound that can be heard across all genres: in FPS games you profit from a precise sound localisation, which gives you a notable advantage in a range of situations. RPGs feel even more realistic thanks to the distinct sound. 

META VOICE MICROPHONE
STUDIO-LEVEL GAMING

Loud background noises in the chat break a team’s immersion and focus. In gaming, the stakes are high and it’s important for your voice to be transmitted naturally with a minimum of background noise. We have translated our years of studio experience into the world of gaming to set our benchmark for studio-level gaming. The answer is the new META VOICE cardioid condenser microphone, which features a 9.9 mm capsule to reproduce your voice naturally and true to life. However, typical background noises like keyboard clacks and mouse clicks will be eliminated. 

VOLUME DIAL WITH CONTROL ELEMENT

Never again will you have to waste time searching along your cable! A practical volume dial ensures the MMX 150 can be adjusted quickly and precisely. Intuitive controls mean you can adjust the volume without leaving your game. And the microphone can be muted using the separate mute button.

SOPHISTICATED DESIGN FOR HOURS OF COMFORT

The MMX 150 combines the classic beyerdynamic aesthetic with a functionality that really matters in gaming. The aluminium band holds the headset together and guarantees durability and a premium look. To prevent pressure points on the head, the band is fitted with memory foam cushioning encased in artificial leather. The memory-foam-filled artificial leather ear pads guarantee comfort for hours on end, and they can be swapped even more quickly and easily thanks to a bayonet mechanism. 

AUGMENTED MODE
DIRECT ACCESS TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD​​​​​​​

Gaming is our interface to another world, where one adventure after another awaits us. But even in the most gripping moments we have to devote our attention to the outside world. To create a balance between the digital and real worlds, the MMX 150 is equipped with the new augmented mode.

When should I choose the MMX 100 and when should I choose the MMX 150?

The MMX 100 is the right choice if you play a lot on the gaming console and want to connect via the controller. If you have a very good sound card, we recommend the MMX 100. If the additional features of the MMX 150 (Augmented Mode, Mute LED) are very important to you, you should rather use this one. The MMX 150 has its strength in the USB connection. In any case, you will enjoy the sound in optimal quality and benefit from the Augmented Mode. The MMX 150 is therefore particularly suitable for PC or for Switch and Playstation, if the respective USB socket can be reached accordingly.

How do the MMX 100 and MMX 150 sound??

The MMX 100 and MMX 150 share the same acoustic design. The sound can be best described as vivid and detailed. You can expect a powerful bass and clear treble with very good spaciousness. No matter if it’s fast-paced action, atmospheric sounds or speech: the MMX 100 and MMX 150 bring the sound of your games to life.

Will the MMX 100 and MMX 150 work with PS5 or XBOX SERIES X?

The MMX 100 is best connected to the Xbox or Playstation controller. The MMX 150 can be connected to the Playstation via USB or the controller.

Does the Augmented Mode also work on a console?

The Augmented Mode (as well as the control elements of the MMX 150) only works via USB, as this requires power. All devices and gaming consoles that use the USB standard also support augmented mode. Xbox is therefore excluded.
