The JBL Quantum ONE is a unique wired headset with RGB lighting, active noise cancellation, and unique audio spatialization technology. It is a heavy headset, but the padding on the headband and ear cups help keep it comfortable even after several hours of use. The RGB lighting is great for adding some extra color to your day, and the active noise cancellation helps keep you ears warm during long periods of use.
The weight of the headset makes it feel sturdy and well-made, but its extensive use of plastic in the construction detracts from its value somewhat. Additionally, the ear cups can be rotated to lie flat on a surface, and the headband can be easily adjusted up and down to fit different head sizes.
The Quantum ONE has a large number of buttons on the left ear cup that allow the user to adjust the numerous functions. There is a volume control, a button to mute the microphone, a button to toggle active noise cancellation, and finally a button to center the headset when using QuantumSPHERE 360 Head Tracking.
The headset is easy to use and has a lot of controls. The jog wheel is a nice addition and makes it easy to balance the volume of the game and other audio outputs.
The JBL Quantum ONE is a great choice for high-end gaming headsets. The jog wheel for adjusting game and voice chat volume makes long Discord gaming nights almost effortless. The detachable microphone and multiple connection options make the headset suitable for a variety of constellations. Most importantly, the headset sounds great in a variety of games.
The JBL Quantum ONE headset has two main connectivity options: using the included USB-A to USB-C cable with an inline jog wheel, or using the included 3.5mm headphone cable. The first option offers a full range of features, including better microphone support, RGB lighting, and active noise cancellation. The second option sacrifices some features, but is fully compatible with a number of different game consoles and handheld devices. ..
The JBL Quantum ONE has a fairly even frequency response across the spectrum, but with some deviations in the high-frequency range. The most noticeable deviation from our target curve is between 2 and 6 kHz, which can sometimes cause sibilants to sound harsh. Apart from that, however, the headset has quite good bass and midrange reproduction, with only a slight dip around 200 Hz. ..
