JBL Quantum 600 Wireless Gaming Headset , DETAILED REVIEW + MIC TEST

[@TheTechne]

This is my 1st video with the complete new setup. New camera, new lights, and new mic. 100% new setup. Please let me know what you think? Any lighting or mic issues? Any and all constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. Thanks again!!

Does anyone know if they connect to the Xbox wirelessly or u have to use adaptor?

[@hazadoor]

@@A4KNetwork xbox doesnt have wireless

[@A4KNetwork]

@@hazadoor seriously!! That’s a bit silly not even the adaptor works what’s the point of calling it a wireless gaming headset then no wonder nobody buys them that’s stupid

[@hazadoor]

@@A4KNetwork No matter what kind of Xbox controller you have, you can connect the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter to your controller by plugging it into the rectangular expansion port on the bottom of your controller. You can then connect a compatible 3.5mm audio jack to the stereo headset adapter.

[@A4KNetwork]

@@hazadoor but it’s not wireslless! The point of this is for them to be wireless! Now I see why I can’t find any videos on KZbin of anyone using them on there consoles these are underrated for a reason there not really compatible how can u make a wireless headphone that only connects wirelessly to one console and not the other these are trash

[@aiden7798]

Most underrated review channel. I bought my keyboards and headset based on your reviews and gotta say, I dong regret it

[@PigBoop]

I’ve had this headset for a while now; and I’ve gotta say I’m so happy with it. As hesitant as I was to spend so much money on a headset. (Never have spent more than $90 on one) I did also struggle to set it up at first, but now that I’m familiar with the software I can confidently say it was me and not the headset/software.

[@BurntBarbeque]

I just bought and tested Quantum 800. Donno the exact difference with 600 but everything you said applies to 800 as well. I like the music sound best when the spatial sound is off. DTS sounds next best just as you mentioned. It trades off depth of sound for adding surround feel to it. Quantum surround is absolutely weak without depth but if you keep listening to it for a while, it kind of tricks your brain to fall into surround immersiveness, sounding live and out in the world. Quantum surround as you mentioned has echo, which I would describe as reverb. But I must add that it would work nice for hearing foot steps in FPS with nice directional accuracy. I assume the head and body size sertings woud be used for the purpose of enhancing directional acuracy although I have not fully tested. So I would say the Quantum surround has its uses despite sounding very weak. I am hoping it to sound better with 7.1ch sound source which I am yet to test. I would use no surround for music, DTS for movies, Quantum for FPS. It is the first time I use spatial sound headset and cannot fully judge it yet. I will give it some time and see how I like it.

[@moons6725]

the 800 is the same is the 600 but the 800 has anc and more rgb and more battery life

[@BurntBarbeque]

@@moons6725 anc is useful but mire rgb is completely useless unless you are a streamer. I turn it off as it drains battery too fast.

[@blurryperson2685]

Be careful with the updates. A recent firmware update bricked mine after 4 months. Thankfully the warranty team seems to be working with me. The sound quality is super good but I can't get over how bad the JBL software is and the risk of bricking your headset.

[@breadsticksngl3888]

Nice reviews! I'm in doubt between the JBL Quantum 600 and the Hyperx Cloud Flight. Which one has better sound and mic quality (I use PC and PS4)? I like the bigger battery on he Hyperx, but the JBL has nice chat config and flip to mute mic. Oh, and many people say the Hyperx has a white noise. Thank you!

Hi! Thanks for the reviews! I'm just hesitating to buy the quantum 800. Is it just me or the mic on this 600 wireless modell is really sounds like sh.t compared to the 100/200 models? Did you tried the mic when the headset was wired?

[@papakimchitv674]

The Quantum series has some serious durability issues. I have the 400 and the plastic bracket got broken without any warning. And the JBL warranty is not that good as well. But this series definitely sounds good and they are comfortable. They need to update this series. It has potential but definitely has a lot of flaws.
