Quest Pro - Globular Cluster Heaphones

[slughead]

I just found out that Globular Cluster makes stereo headphones for the Quest Pro that plug into the QP. Is anyone using them? What is the sound like? The Globular Cluster comfort pack has made a huge difference to my QP, so I expect the headphones to have a similar improvement. They're similar to the headphones used on the G2. They look a bit big, though.

I am using a pair for quite some time. I am no audiophile but it definitely better than the default. It is also very comfortable as it does not press too hard to the earlobe.

The connection between the headphone and the clamp on the right side is kinda loose so I tend not to turn it a lot, otherwise, not complaint.

Interesting. They look pretty bulky, though. I've been using this, which improves the default sound. They clip onto the headset. You get a similar effect by cupping your ears with your hands with the headset on.

I tried them when I first got the Pro, didn't like them made my ears itch lol and I thought got in the way when putting them on and taking them off. I like the cup idea though. Tried looking for them with no luck. ( I dont have a 3D printer)

Thanks for the feedback. If you want some of those cups, I will print them for you if you pay the shipping fee. Where are you located? Fleet Air Arm... UK. Drop me a private message as I am also UK located.

This looks like a good idea. Can you provide the 3D file ?

I have also researched the Globular Cluster headphones and the reviews I read were not in favor, so I'm still using the QPro ones. I tried a set of Bluetooth earbuds I have but I was getting a lot of background noise while in game.

I use JBL Quantum TWS for this with USB adapter, no any background noise and issues (just time 2.5-3.5h).

I would say this is not the best solutiuon, it brings additional weight, and it looks like they are not able to be adjusted vertically.

I simply use a normal headset (HyperX Cloud II) over my head and VR headset.

Yes, that was my concern too. I do have the Oculus Earbuds. Perhaps I I should focus my efforts on making a holder for them similar to that in a PS4 headset.

I have bought some strap which is on top of your head from the back to the front. It really easies off the VR. I can now have it on my head for hours. Without it I could only use it for an hour max, and my head started to hurt really badly.

I have the Globular Cluster comfort pack. I don’t need anything else. We seem to be straying off topic of the original question of whether the Globular headphones are any good or not.
