I retired my Astro A40 TR with mixamp for VZR model one. I use the sony inzone H9 for wireless gaming headset for my single player games on PS5 and VZR model one for battlefield 2042, call of duty, destiny 2, Rainbow six siege and other online shooters on PS5. The VZR model one with dual sense PS5 controller gets plenty loud through the headphone jack on the PS5 controller. I do miss the easy chat volume mix on the astro mixamp when you need coms quiet when trying to hear stuff. Overall the VZR are really good. Thank you for doing that great video on VZR model one because I would have never known about them.

Another solid video and the three tiers is helpful if someone is looking for a headset. I bought the Nova Pro Wireless recently, used your settings, and now they sound amazing. I use the Audeze Penrose X on console, but I use the AUX because the wireless range and disconnections are so bad. Sound amazing now but it sucks spending so much on a wireless to make it wired.

Thanks for the video. I went for the separate, analog route and settled on the Austrian Audio Hi x65 after doing a lot of research recently. The detail resolution / footsteps factor is second to none short of the super premium level. Build quality and comfort is top of the bill. Really happy with the sound stage and audiophile qualities too and as a bonus it's really easy to drive without an amp or DAC as well. I would recommend a place for that on your next selection ^_^

Hi mate do you think 900 pro x and sound blaster x4 is the best setup? I've been trying gaming headsets for years and they're all so tinny sounding. This guy rates the astro a40 but I thought they sounded really tinny despite having more bass and sound, my blackshark v2 sound better overall. I don't have a price range but I just don't know who to trust when they're saying something like the a40 is good when to me it's really poor quality

I have the H60 Pro closed backs. I used to have the open back ones but returned them because I just couldn't get used to the sound. They sounded way too "airy" and everything lacked body or presence. The audio felt like it was just "there" and wasn't fun to listen to. I greatly enjoy the H6Pros. They are so fun to listen to with music, gaming, movies, and shows. They're super comfy. My only gripe is you can hear the noise in the earcup when the cable drags on something.

Hey, I am really considering purchasing the MMX300. The only thing holding me back at the moment is the microphone that you can't detach. I hope to use my headset also on my smartphone e.g. when I take the train so, but so the fixed microphone is really a let down. Apparently the DT770 pro is the same audio driver? Do you have any experience with this whether they sound the same? If so I will probably buy the one with a separate microphone!

How do you compare them to the HD6Pro Open backs? I know the 500's have a wider frequency response which makes me wonder why spend more for less range. I often listen to music while gaming so the GSP 500s really spoiled me in a way my Logitech G930's couldn't come close to. Thanks!

It's all good, progress is progress! H6PRO open back definitely have a different sound signature but once you get used to the change, they are great. The frequency response range doesn't really mean anything. We only hear 20hz to 20khz anyway, but as you get older, a lot of people wont hear anything above 13-16kHz.

Discovered your channel a few days ago searching for some reviews on H6PRO. I appreciate the honest opinions and the technical explanations, and ended up purchasing the open back version. Unfortunely I returned it, it wasn't for me! Like some viewer point out, it's a amazing headphones! Never felt that comfort and sound is great, but for me the open back didn't worked! Playing warzone or apex, althought the soundstage and the imaging audio was great, it felt liked it was too much "crisp". The volume on dualsense PS5 was loooud, I couldn't pushed it to further then 60% in MW2 Shipment (about 80% in Warzone - tested headphone and home theater settings)! After I few minutes I just felt tired and with a little headache (I'm not crying about it lol)... at least that was it for me! I tried exchange for the closed back but in my country they run out of stock. So, I'm still keeping rocking my Pulse 3D for a couple of weeks, until my GSP-300 arrives! For comparison I use the pulse on max volume (with/ without 3D audio on), but for sure the soundstage and imaging, isn't that great like the H6PRO. So after another set of reviews I believe the GSP will be at that sweet spot. Let's see! If I may I think it would be a great video(s) comparing older gaming headsets with new ones! Most of older gaming headset still are avaliable and maybe they sound as good as the newer models... But anyway, thanks for the reviews, keep up the good work!

I have EQd some Razer Blacksharks to get pretty close, but the H6 Pros are just monsters with positioning when comparing stuff. I haven't tried the VZR sets, but the lack of controls kinda turns me off on wanting to spend that much. I'm pretty happy with the EPOS sets, so until I see something getting even more glowing reviews, I think I'm gonna stick with them. 🙂

I feel you. It’s hard to entertain the VZR Model One when it’s $350 USD, and has limited controls. Inline mute controls - are you kidding me. But as a BFV player, I’m very curious about the imaging on the VZR Model One.

We all have our perception and financial limitations when it comes to purchasing gaming headsets. For me, I’m yet to find a beloved headset over $300. Sure those headsets are feature rich and have high quality materials, but in my experience the sound and/or mic is not great. Of course, real high-end $1000+ is a different story. So for me, my price to performance point of diminishing returns lay with the EPOS H6PRO. I’m consistently doing well in BFV with its great sound, so why do I need to pay for more. We all know there are more levels, but do we really need them, if playing FPS games is your main jam.

I haven't been able to move from my blackshark v2 yet because they sound fairly good overall. After this video I am interested to try the hifiman xs or sennheiser 560s with a good headphone amp/dac, I'm now convinced I'm an audiophile because something like the astro a40 sounds awful to me no matter the eq, but then putting on the blackshark v2 the clarity increases but the bass and fullness drops off. I'm looking for something which does the whole package at a really high sound quality, I don't like the idea that some headphones do jobs better, I know what I want 😂

@@jamiedyer7782 560S with a dac/amp is a great starting place. You will not be disappointed, especially with some minor EQ adjustments. I have not heard this kind of performance from any gaming headset that includes EPOS H3 Hybrid Pro and Arctis Nova Pro Wireless -- both top of the line and equally expensive. ANPW got loud and has exceptional clarity for a gaming set and sounds great out of the box. Comfort failed miserably for me even with wicked cushions. I would have been happy enough to keep them based on their features and sound quality but they weren't the right set for me. I can wear 560S all day every day and they are stuck like glue to my narrow head and are featherlight. Directional imaging is exceptional. Music sounds natural and lush (with EQ). They are at least as good or better when properly set up compared to ANPW. The only thing that can probably compete is the Audeze planars which I haven't heard.

I'm seriously looking at the H6 Pros, but I don't know whether I should buy the open backs or closed backs. There are so many people on both sides of the fence, it's really hard to know what's right for me. My girlfriend works from home, and often watches Netflix beside me. I don't want to annoy her with my game sounds. My primary concern is how leaky the open backs are. She's also a very light sleeper, and sometimes sleeps on the couch beside me.

The openback leak a lot of sound. I personally preferred the sound signature of the closeback version. With the closeback, you lose the wider soundstage of the openback, but gain more bass, brighter highs, and louder volume.

I have been running an Asus Xonar Essence STX soundcard with built in amp pushing Sennheiser HD600's for years. I had purchased Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless Gaming Headset - High-Fidelity 7.1 Surround Sound because I was hoping for better footsteps I wasn't sold on it and returned the unit. I'm wondering if you feel any of these are better gaming headsets for precision and footsteps? I don't need a mic because I do have a nice boom mic that works well. The Amplifier on the soundcard is quite good it will do up to 600ohms has a mixer etc. livens up these HD600's a lot I've had them quite awhile they are broke in well now. I also have Dolby access purchased from a while back so driver (brand software specific) EQ may not mater much either. I have been looking at your Maxwell review but I'm not sure if that will be better either I'm on PC.

Its not even loud at all, but its something in the way they sound that messes up my brain.. I put on my old razer black sharks and all that went away and my games sounded normal again.. I've never had that happen and I've had 2,000 watt subs in my cars my whole life. See ya steelserries. I ordered the h6pro and hope they work well, its crazy how so many people just want footsteps blasting in thier ears rather then SOUNDS of the game. lol

There's really only one right now that does console and PC gaming well and is sold separately, and that's the Astro Mixamp pro. It's what I would suggest if your console is an Xbox. If you are a Playstation player, you can also consider the prior gen SteelSeries Game DAC. amzn.to/3Gc7ewr. - Otherwise look at the Soundblaster G6 (won't work on Xbox).
