friends
yesterday when i try to plug the headphone in g750jx i was unable to plug in as something is interrupting it to going in, i try to watch what is in it but nothing found, i thought to visit the service center but Indian service center are total crap, they will change the jack but spoil something else, so i decided to buy USB headset, there is Rog Orion Pro and Logitech G35 headset i found to use it by USB, i will never use audio jack, i will only use USB now, so please suggest me the better option between two of them or if any other headset is there pleae let me know,
Thanks

Remember, if you want "Real" Surround Sound, you need a processor like the Turtle Beach standalone device, or a USB device like the Sennheiser Headphones:

Sennheiser PC 333D Gaming Headset

Surround Sound PC Gaming Headset PC 363D
http://en-in.sennheiser.com/pc-363d-surround-sound-gaming-headset

These 2 look awesome, but I haven't tried them, and you would need to test to make sure they provide 7.1 surround on the G750... make sure you can return them if they don't work.

You can ask Sennheiser if they have compatibility reports for Asus G750's before ordering.

Please come back and give us a review, and let us know if the Sennheiser 3D USB works with the G750 USB 3.0 and Windows 8.1 🙂


So you want to say that sennheiser is much better then sony pulse? I also have ps3, will this sennheiser work with ps3 also? Please clear the points between pulse and sennheiser so that i will buy the correct one for me, i will use it with ps3 also

amitabhbansal, there are few headphones that will do surround sound, and fewer still, that will cover all the systems.

The Sony Pulse Elite does Virtual Surround on the PS3/4 and PC, and focus on Bass, gaming, and action. They sound good for movies too, but they aren't the best audio fidelity, the Sennheisers are built on better fidelity elements, but both are enjoyable.

The Sennheiser uses a 3D Surround processor driven from a USB device, for the PC, it is unlikely it will work on the PS3/PS4 - the Sennheiser docs list only PC support.

If you are going to game, watch movies, and stream video more on the PC then get the Sennheiser's, if you are going to split across the PS3/4 and PC then I would get both - that is why I have several sets of headphones, there isn't one that does it all.

The Turtle Beach gaming Headphones are great on the PS/Xbox, and work on the PC too, but to move the decoder / stand to the PC and back to the PS/Xbox would be a pain, so I use other headphones on the PC / Mac / Android and yet another set on the TV.

You started out looking for headphones to use on the PC, and the Sennheisers have a chance of being the best for the PC. But, you have to make sure you can return them if the Sennheiser USB Device doesn't work well on the G750 USB 3.0 / Windows 8.1. Call / email Sennheiser to make sure they will work.

It's too bad the headphone jack is messed up, you would be able to use Toslink for all the devices, and run them through a Receiver with Toslink and you could drive normal headphones.

The Sony's are great on the PS4, and work fine on the PC, so they are a good choice, just not as good as the PC only Sennheisers with Surround support in their USB device.

I wish there was a simple answer 🙂

When you find out if the Sennheiser Surround USB device with the PC 363D and PC 333D work on the G750 USB 3.0 + Windows 8.1 you will be the first to report back to the Forum, so you will be helping lots of G750 owners 🙂

Here is someone that used the PC 363D on a G75VX, but that is likely with USB 2.0 and WIndows 7:

amitabhbansal, the US model number is on the US sites, we didn't find it on the India site.

You need to find out where your seller sources their Sony items, if from a country other than the US, you will need to find the part number for the source country, it might be different.

When you find the source country, you can look it up on that countries Sony site, and the part number will be in the description somewhere, like here on the US site(s).

Here are highlighted sections from the URL's I gave you, showing the US part number

That's the one!

Don't forget, battery lasts 5-6 hours at best, so get 2 and keep one charging!

Let us know how you like it when you get it 🙂

Looks like you bought it, was 2 available, now only 1 left.

All the links I found have the correct model, you posted one a few posts back that was the wrong one, I have never even seen that model.

Here is the GTA V version 🙂

There are no drivers to load on Windows. On the PS3 the support came through a system update sometime along the way. Follow the instructions at the Sony site, first link above.
