Quantum 100 - Wired Over-Ear Gaming Headphones - Black, Large | Be at the center of the game with JBL QuantumSOUND Signature, Play even longer in memory foam comfort

I love them!! For a budget-friendly gaming headset, the JBL Quantum 100 delivers surprisingly solid performance where it matters most. The sound quality is clear and immersive enough for casual to moderate gaming, with good directional audio that can genuinely enhance gameplay without feeling overly exaggerated. The microphone performs well for team communication, and the detachable design is a practical bonus. Comfort is another strong point, especially for longer sessions, thanks to the cushioned ear cups. While these won’t compete with premium gaming headsets in terms of advanced features, deeper bass, or high-end materials, they offer strong overall value for the price. Build quality is decent, though somewhat lightweight, which may feel less premium to some users. Overall, this headset strikes a very good balance between affordability, comfort, and functional gaming performance.

I believe I have a previous model, which is what this review is for if the model was updated. My mic has a foam tip but this is what was on my previous orders list. I recently bought a Zoom PodTrak P4 and it came in a set with Zoom headphones. The audio sound on the Zoom is fine but the headphones do not adjust. I have a large head and large ears. These fit my head well and stay in place. The sound quality is amazing. And the additional volume knob is really nice to have. The on/off switch is nice to isolate quickly without having to go to any app. However the set still works audibly. They are straightforward high quality headphones. I won't diminish a star for it not having a noise canceling but it would be nice if they had that, or even some sound protection function just to help isolate me from the external environment. If you don't have a problem like that, these are perfect and well worth the price. -update after some time and use I am started to notice intermittent clicking. My guess is that it is from the wire that is losing contact. It is a very thin wire cable. It isn't terrible but since it isn't able to be detached it can't be replaced. I play with the cable but can't replicate the clicks so I can't find where the break is. If there is one. These are still very good for the price. If better care is given to them, I am sure the break or the clicking can be avoided. It isn't isolated to a single device but is repeated between a sony voice recorder, my computer and my Zoom podtrak p4. so it has got to be the headphones.

I bought this headset for my girlfriend a little over a year ago and she has loved it the whole time. We just upgraded to a wireless headset but for the time she had it I was very impressed. First off, for 30 bucks youre not going to find much better. Build quality is all rigid plastic and it's a bit creaky but all headphones in this price range are going to be like that. The sound quality and the mic are amazing and beat some 70-100 dollar headsets I have used. JBL is known for their sound and these are no exception. All frequency ranges come in clear so whether your gaming or listening to music this headset sounds awesome. The best and worst part of the headset is the mic. The mic (when it worked) was the best sounding mic I have heard on a gaming headset. My girlfriend sounded like she was talking through a physical desktop microphone. The fact that it is removable too really was convenient for when she wasn't in calls or using coms in game. The reason I say it is also the worst part of the headset is that the mic stopped working after about a year after she got it. She is not rough with any of her tech and the headset was used normally. The mic stopped working and we could not figure why. So we upgraded her to the Barracuda X which is 3 times the price and the mic doesn't compare in sound quality at all. The last thing I will say is that the headphones look great and you will need to purchase a splitter to use it on a PC but it does work out of the box on some laptops. For the price you can't go wrong with this headset. If I am ever in the need of a budget headset I will definitely recommend and purchase this again.

For the price, the JBL Quantum 100M2 is honestly one of the best budget gaming headsets I've come across. The sound quality genuinely surprised me—JBL's signature audio brings out everything from footsteps to ambient effects, making games feel immersive and detailed in a way I didn't expect at this price point. Comfort is also a strong point. It's lightweight, and the memory foam ear cushions make long sessions feel easy and painless. It doesn't pretend to be premium, but for the cost, it's tough to beat—comfortable, reliable, and great value for everyday gaming.

I'm not a fan of gaming headsets that come with their own software, have annoying bright lights, 70 mile long cables that get tangled up, and especially those little midway connectors that can control volume and come unplugged if you tug on the cable by accident. I'm happy to say this is a minimalist gaming headset that fits exactly what my needs are.The headset is comfortable (it is slightly tight like the other reviews said, but I personally prefer that type of fit), the microphone sounds surprisingly good and clear for the price (I have a deeper voice and people noted how much deeper my voice sounded compared to my old headset) and can bend and stay in place where you need it. You just need to buy a $6 TRRS to dual TRS headphone/mic splitter if your computer has separate headphone/mic ports. (I just bought the one that was listed as frequently bought together and it worked fine.)I can see what people are saying about the plastic build quality being susceptible to cracking, as I've done this by accident with an old headset, but if you don't rip your headphones off your head with one hand like an animal you shouldn't have a problem.The audio quality of the headphones is totally acceptable for the price range. Yes it is a little boomy in the low mids, but if you just EQ your audio output that can be reduced and molded to your preference anyway, and the result is a very nice and punchy bass sound. I see reviews that say the sound is better on xyz headphones, but those other brands being compared to are in the $100 range at least. Either way, if you have the expectation of audiophile-tier sound quality, then why would you get a gaming headset? The only reason to get a gaming headset is to avoid the hassle/cost of setting up a separate mic and headphones so it can be all in one, knowing that you are sacrificing audio quality for the convenience. A mic small enough to attach to a headset will never come close to a LDC mic.For my money, a lower tier headset is totally fine for everyday gaming and casual music listening. For $30, I don't really know what more I could want from this product, other than maybe it coming with the TRRS to dual TRS headphone/mic splitter for my laptop's inputs. I might even buy an extra pair in case these ever go out of stock because most headsets are migrating towards bulkier and RGB laden designs I don't enjoy, and it's getting harder to find headsets that are lightweight and minimalist in their design like these are.Initially I had troubles getting Discord to recognize the mic until I realized my Realtek Audio Manager needed to manually set this as a default mic (Go to Microphone -> Set Default Device in Realtek), and I had to uncheck the awful noise suppression setting (Not the Discord one, the Realtek one) to get the full mic quality. This is also specific issues to my computer's software though and in no way reflects the product's quality, I just figured anyone else with this same problem might want the info.

I have now had my headphones (White) for a full year and a half - I bought them in April 2021, and they still work great. I have a smaller head, and the lowest size setting actually fits, so I suppose that means they run a little bit small but that's exactly what I need. As no other headphones fit me on their smallest setting, I have been extremely impressed of the quality of my (on-sale) $30 mic'd headphones.- Sound quality is superior for the price, very balanced and of good quality. I have been impressed, and after a year nothing has deteriorated in sound quality. I don't know the right word, but I'm able to get the surround-sound that is needed for first-person shooter games. I know where my enemies are coming from! It's not something I expected from this headset, but I was very pleasantly surprised!- The one minus here is that the mike is a little bit on the quiet side, and I have to manually turn myself up in Discord/Zoom/Steam. But after that, it's a very clear sound without muffling and usually only picks up my voice. It is a detachable mike, but I've detached and reattached it several times, bent and unbent the mike angle, and it still seems durable with zero break-down. I keep it unattached for the most part and have yet to lose it.- The headset itself is very, very comfortable. I can wear it for hours on end without issues or headaches. It is made of a cheaper light-weight plastic, but it's also durable enough to have lasted well over a year - and going! The swivel of the ears also helps with comfort and for "sealing" in the sound. So unless the *look* of quality is what you're going for, the light-weight plastic is actually a plus for comfort at a $30 price tag.- The cord is shorter, but if your PC is next to your desk, it won't be an issue.For a fitting pair of headphones with gaming-level quality, accurate sound positioning for games like Halo and Apex (among others), quality sound and comfort, detachable microphone, and a $30 price tag, these are far superior to anything I have ever gotten in the past. If a quieter mike and short cord aren't issues for you, and you're a gamer/student like me looking for quality on a really small budget, these may be the best headphones out there.

This review probably won't interest that many people because the Quantum 100 model is not longer made or sold—as far as I can tell. These headphones had many good features:• they had a removable mic wand, so for listening only, for music, videos, TV, etc. that was a big plus;• they had an analog volume wheel—instead of digital—so it was possible to get the volume just right, instead ofgetting stuck between not quite loud enough or just too loud; plus the wheel could quickly be flicked down tomute unwanted noise;• the sound quality for music was very good for headphones in their price range: ~$30.00 back in 2022.However they suffered from two structural problems because of poor design and inferior materials:• after about 11 or 12 months the plastic between the head-band and the left swiveling ear cup broke. I had toself-adhering bandage wrap to hold that rotating ear cup in place to keep it from breaking off altogeher; about4 months later the plastic of the right ear cup at the swivel broke in the same place. Because of their other goodfeatures, I continued to use them, bandaged up as they were, until . . .• the surface of the padding on the over ear cups began chipping and peeling off, leaving little glossy particles ofplastic film inside my ears and all over my clothes.I did not treat these headphones roughly. They were used inside and never exposed to sunlight in the basement flatwhere I live. Back when JBL made speakers I had a pair that were unmatched for their balanced (treble--bass) output. Not only do I listen carefully, but I also compose orchestral music. So I'm picky enough about equipment. However, JBL equipment, now owned by Harman, and made in China just ain't what it once was.

I don't often rate my transaction until Amazon pesters me for one, but I had to write this one without prompting. These headphones rock! The sound is rich and it doesn't through too loudly. The microphone is just what I needed for a foreign-language course I'm taking online. If I had any criticism is the mic doesn't swing up but the plus side is it's removable. Also, the volume control and mute button on the left ear muff area big plus. Top drawer!

JBL Quantum 100 Gaming Headset: A Solid Budget-Friendly ChoiceOne drawback, aside from the lack of noise canceling, is that the headset might not be the best choice for music listening. In noisy environments, it may not provide the optimal experience. Additionally, its sound profile is tailored more towards directional audio and in-game effects, rather than offering a balanced or immersive music playback.The JBL Quantum 100 gaming headset proves to be an excellent option for those seeking a budget-friendly solution for gaming. It's particularly well-suited for casual gamers who enjoy relaxing gameplay, chatting with friends, or even diving into games like Valorant—though I wouldn’t recommend it for high-stakes competitive play.The sound quality of this headset is quite impressive for its price. While it doesn’t feature active noise canceling, it still delivers immersive audio that lets you catch nearly every detail in your game. The audio experience is engaging and satisfying, enhancing your overall gaming enjoyment.Another highlight is the detachable boom mic. I’ve had several people inquire about the mic I’m using, and they were surprised by its clarity. Although I use the Voicemeter app to further enhance my voice quality, the Quantum 100 performs admirably both with and without additional voice enhancement tools.In terms of build quality, I’d rate the Quantum 100 an 8/10. While it doesn’t match the comfort of more expensive models, it’s still a solid performer in the budget category. The adjustable headband and plush ear cushions offer a comfortable fit, and the headset is lightweight, making it easy to wear for extended sessions.Overall, the JBL Quantum 100 delivers great value for its price. It combines good sound quality, a clear mic, and a comfortable design, making it a reliable choice for gamers on a budget.

Excelentes Audífonos con gran sonido y excelente precio. Los uso tooooodos los días sin falta. Tienen su propia rueda de volumen y también funcionan como manos libres porque traen aditamento de micrófono. Aislan decentemente el ruido (mas no al 100%), son ligeros y con buen sonido.
