Our Verdict

Beyerdynamic MMX 330 PRO

ASUS ROG Kithara

The ASUS ROG Kithara are better open-back gaming headphones than the Beyerdynamic MMX 330 PRO. The ASUS are better built and more comfortable, and can produce much more bass than the Beyerdynamic while maintaining a balanced mid-range and treble that's well aligned with our target. Both headphones have a good mic performance with solid noise handling, but considering they retail for a similar amount, the ASUS offer better value for your money.
