The pads are interchangeable. That was a very popular "mod" for the GSP500's, was to get the GSP600's pads and use them on the 500's. It also amps the lower frequencies up a bit (which you can tune out in EQ if you don't like that).

For you to hear the footsteps and guns reloading in battle you have to have to a headset that is closed back. You can Eq them to make some sounds pop out more than others, but I feel as if I picked up the open back that I would hear to much background noise, so for the closed back keeping all the sound in makes you hear more sound in a way, louder sound, this isn’t a bad thing when you need to hear everything

I have PC38X and H6Pro Open version. PC38X wins in sound quality and tuning. The audio is very natural, sound stage is OK, positioning is great for gaming. Meanwhile the H6Pro wins in build quality and comfort department. Audio-wise it's a bit more bassy compared to PC38X, and sound stage isn't as large. I'd prefer PC38X more gaming and music, and H6Pro if I need to make calls all day since it feels more comfortable to me, and mic doesn't pick up plosives as much as PC38X mic.

I'm looking at getting either the GSP 600 or the H6pro and wanted to know if the drivers are exactly the same in every way . What I mean is also how they were tuned. The reason I ask Is I was reading the audio graphs for the GSP 600 and I really like it however the H6pro seems way more comfortable. I use my headsets for the competitive CSGO scene as I play in leagues and my entire play style is based off of tons of micro information and so I really need that pinpoint accuracy all the time. And so I ask if ALL the audio graphs from the GSP 600 apply to the H6pro because I can't find any audio graph readings anywhere for the H6pro. Your help would be much appreciated.

By looking at the review the closed version seems like the better pick due to the comfort advantage over the open version. I need to be able to have them on for multiple 2-hour sessions during a work day. Probably around 6 hours a day. This product also caught my attention due to the good mic review, seems to be scoring higher than most competitors in that department too. But when you started to rip apart the audio quality on the comfy closed version I fell back into frustration. Why is it so difficult to get good audio AND good mic?! Should I be looking at other products all together for my purpose?

I can confirm both close and open back version of the H6 pro works on the PS5 via the controller plug in or an amp using USB. The 3D audio also works. The sound quality is slightly better on the PC but for my personal use, I think it’s great. I am currently playing Elden Ring on the PS5 using the open back version and I find it to be very immersive for that game.

UPDATE: I returned the open back H6PRO and bought Closed back. I can confirm that it is cool for games only if 1/ change the stock pads with the dekoni leather one and 2/ activate spatial audio Dolby Atmos for headphones I listen to your advise (and 100+ more reviewers too) and bought the Open back H6PRO. For a reference I already own HD598, X2HR, MMX300, TYGR 300R, Cloud Alpha, Monoprice Retro, V-moda M100. I find H6PRO Open to be one of the worst headphones that I have. I am just a regular gamer not an audiophile guy. I've tested the headphone on SoundBlaster G6, GSX 300, Fiio E10K. Highs are too hight - for example in CSGO on cs_office - when I go shoot some windows or shoot some teammate bot in the head - the sound is so harsh that it hurts. Strange that only for specific sounds it is harsh but overall the sound quality is very bad. If I lower the volume - it changes the sound dramatically and also with a lower volume I cannot hear the footsteps. In the Battlefield games again sound is so bad that it lose the magic of the beautiful music/audio in the game. I've tried different cables and different computers. Maybe the closed back may be different but I don't think so. From all of my headphones I like HD598 for music, TYGR for casual games and Monoprice Retro for the epic bass when I want fun. I wanted a headset for footsteps but this is so bad that I think to return it. Idk how everyone say it is good .. maybe mine is deffective. It is so strange, cause if I listen to music it sounds not so bad as in games.

Can I ask your opinion between h6 pro (closed) and mmx300? I am coming from sennheiser hd599s, but I have to switch to a closed headset because of noise problems :(. Having to use them purely for listening to music and gaming, from your experience which one is better (I would also be interested in comfort and noise isolation)?
@andreydoichinov1683 Жыл бұрын
@@sngcelebi7040 So.. h6pro closed I use only for footsteps in csgo/R6. When you come from the sound HD598/599 to the H6PRO it will feel like you are scammed. But for footsteps and positioning is the best ... like wall hack (but only the closed one). I have Monoprice Retro which are closed and are fun for game in battlefield for the huge .. epic amount of bass but the HD598 have better sound but still Retros are not bad at all and are like 29$ :). I also have Denon 7200 second hand (about 325 euro) which sounds perfect with deep bass and it is closed back but have some comfort issues. I bought also Harmonic Zeus (open back) it has simillar sound like HD598 but I dont like it so much. I am thinking to buy Audizie Penrose or HyperX Cloud Orbit S which are closed. Also fI think to buy HD660s for an upgrade of my HD598 cause I love them. After I am having like 10 headphones I appriciate how good the HD598 actualy are.

@@sngcelebi7040 About the difference between H6pro closed and mmx300 - the sound of MMX300 is superb - the h6pro closed feels like trash. BUT I think you need to EQ some of the treble of the MMX300 cause it is too much. This was the reason I bought Beyer TYGR 300 R (open) which is crystal clear like MMX300 but with less treble harsh.

I cannot beleive the hype around the H6 Pro's - they are not a good quality headphone by a long shot. I bought a pair and would rate them as one of the worst sounding headphones I have ever owned. Good headphones have a flat response across audible range. The H6pro have a massive bump of several dB in the upper base register which makes them sound forced and un-natural. The reason it's a problem is that if you turn them down to stop the bass overwhelming you can't hear the upper-mids and highs. A good quality headphone with a flat response would allow people to listen at much lower volume levels and actually hear more detail / information. The positional imaging from the H6 Pro while not great is acceptable and they are comfortable to wear, but that's just not enough to justify the cartoonish bass response and lack of detail. My old AKG K7's blow the H6Pro's away - and they were half the price.

Bassy and muddy instead of neutral and airy, I'd say about 15%-20%. Also these headsets can use GSP earpads, because I tried the 601C pads on the H6Pro Open version and they clip in perfectly. I measured the cups against GSP 600 and surprisingly they match. I guess Epos keep the tooling the same and just slightly redesigned the headset body to be less bulky
