EPOS H6Pro - Open Acoustic Gaming Headset with Mic, Lightweight & Comfortable Design, Xbox, PS4, PS5 & PC Headset - Black

So to preface this review, I've had a lot of headphones both for music and gaming. I'm not an audiophile, but I am quite particular when it comes to sound. I've had HyperX Cloud2, SteelSeries, V-Moda, Sony XM3. These headphones (open) are now my favourite for both music and gaming. Comfort: these do not clamp against your head like some have reviewed on the closed back. There's enough adjustability in the headband to get the sizing just right and stays in place nicely. I don't suffer from hot ears or sweaty head after hours of gaming, and I really don't feel like I've got anything on. You will not fatigue with these one bit. I found my HyperX to be very comfortable, but when trying these and going back to the HyperX, you can tell they're in different leagues (price wise you certainly are) Sound quality: this area is highly subjective like anything audio related it comes down to personal preference. I saw a lot of reviews saying the profile was relatively flat and lacked low end when compare to the closed. I can't comment on the closed, but I was pleasantly surprised how much low end it had when expecting such a flat profile. Both gaming and music, these things just sing. Playing FPS games I could hear footsteps and direction of enemy much clearer than HyperX. Explosions and bullets sounded amazing! Sound leakage: these are my first open back headphones. But the wife didn't complain hearing my gaming/music when played at same volume as HyperX. Not to say its not there, because it certainly is. But in a typical sized front living room, with my wife sat on the other sofa, she had to concentrate to hear anything. Happy wife, happy gamer! Music: I compared these to my Sony wh1000 XM3, which I love. I wasn't expecting much at first as the two couldn't be more different with Sony having ANC and closed back vs non-ANC and open back. But I was taken aback by how good music sounded on these. Obviously these are basically Sennheiser headphones, and so should sound very good! But it wasn't something I thought I'd appreciate quite as much as I did. The clarity, clear crisp highs and rumbling lows were welcomed, I cranked the volume up and no distortion. You could happily listen to Rap/R&B, hip hop, dance, pop, rock... they are truly versatile. Microphone: I like how you can magnetically remove the mic if you wanted. It rotates up to mute the mic automatically. From what others have fed back, my voice is clear and not too loud, with no background noise either. Though can't comment too much as not heard the results myself only feedback of others I've played with I highly recommend these headphones for either gaming or music.

This headset is objectively amazing. The comfort, built quality and style are fantastic and feel premium. Yes, it’s a wired headset and can only be connected via 3.5mm jack but the sound is incredible (punchy and rumbling yet also detailed bass and clear highs). The mic sounds fantastic too (I sound rich and natural) and it is both flip to mute and detachable. There aren’t any controls on this headset other than the volume wheel, but what it lacks in features, it makes up for with comfort and sound quality. Highly recommend

My daughter loves them, she says they're comfortable, sound is good and the mike is excellent. The facility to lift the mike to shut it off is handy too. I've seen reviews that say one sides speaker doesn't work, well we had that too but discovered we weren't pushing the jack plug in far enough - so before you return them try a little harder to to push it firmly into the headset. Then, good to go!

I am actually astounded at how many people sing the praises of this headset when it is quite easily the worst headset I've ever used in my life, let alone for the ridiculous price range these apparently belong in. - The sound quality was awful, the overall volume had to be so low in order to preserve any kind of clarity which you could barely hear because it had to be so low. When raising the volume, the bass would distort so loudly the mids and trebles would get drowned out. - The build quality felt good in the hands and to look at, but immediately felt uncomfortable when wearing them. The earpads were a good shape for the ears but the material was like having 4 bricks cemented around the driver. - Despite what many sources have said, this DOES NOT work with Epos software and DOES NOT HAVE SIDETONE. Also the microphone which I had, did not sound anything like some of the microphones on reviews of this product, which did vary quite drastically video to video. (Post editing most likely) - The connections on this headset are AWFUL quality, I had to unplug and replug the wire upwards of 5 times and spin it in the fixture until finally both earcups engaged and was not missing any frequency. I honestly expected so much better for a headset in this price range from, supposedly, the gaming division of Sennheiser. I have never refunded anything in my life so fast and I really tried to like it to save the hassle of a return, but I simply feel like I have been SCAMMED.

TL:DR - It’s good - requires power to amp it, is comfortable, excellent imaging for games, is not ‘hifi’ but still fun with music. I convinced myself (and crucially my wife) that I needed this headset as I had problems with the onboard mic for conference calls on my work laptop. It so happens to be a very good gaming headset as well! Likes: -Comfortable, -Excellent noise suppression from the mic (colleagues never notice background noises.) -Automate when boom mic is tilted up. -Detachable boom mic -Two sets for cables - one with separate mic cable and the other all in one. -Open design means I can still here my wife or the Postie knocking at the door. -For gaming I was really happy with - the accuracy/special awareness and the lack of sibilance/hard or fatiguing treble. I could hear the gun fire and it made my heart pump but not my ears bleed. Dislikes: -The headphones need a bit of power to drive them. I used a Creative G6 headphone amplifier as it has an input for the mic. I also tested it with my Chord Hugo Dac/head amplifier and that was overkill. My advice the Creative is plenty good enough it’s enjoyable but don’t waste your money on exotic amplifiers unless you have them for hifi grade headphones. -Lastly the pads are very comfortable but they pick up crud and skin fairly easily so will require cleaning.

Honestly, this is the best headset I've ever owned. Paired with the EPOS Sennheiser GSX 1000 audio amp, the sound quality even competes with the much heavier Audeze Maxwell. The drivers are tuned perfectly right out of the box, and the headset is incredibly lightweight and exceptionally comfortable. I even wear it in bed while using my Steam Deck, and even without the amp, the audio quality is phenomenal.

I bought the open back and closed back version and the open back sound is amazing. I suffer from noise cancelling headphones building pressure in my ears and these fix that issues. Also, it is nice to hear your own voice so you don’t get that feeling as though you are underwater. I also use these for listening to music and they have a lovely balanced sound. Although they are open back, the ‘sound leakage’ I.e. what people can hear around you is actually quite minimal. I would be happy using these in a cafe or on a train at a moderate level. The mic is also one of the best I have used. Everyone comments on how clear your voice is either when gaming or making phone calls. Bang for buck, there is nothing like these headphone and it has convinced me to used wired headsets as opposed to Bluetooth which, was always my go to. Get them. You won’t be disappointed. Oh and comfort is absolutely superb.

The product came very well packaged and felt premium, but the sound quality wasn't great. Very little bass and generally felt like it was oversold in the reviews. I'm unsure if I just happened to have been supplied with a faulty product, but I returned it to Amazon as it was not worth £120.

Prima koptelefoon!

En serio de los mejores auriculares que he tenido. Mejor que muchos más caros. Perfecto en comodidad, sonido y micrófono. Esta muy bien para pasar horas. Muchas horas en el trabajo con ellos y genial

Également heureux possesseur d'un h3 hybrid (casque fermé), je me suis laissé tenter par ce EPOS H6 Pro, cette version est filaire et analogique car je dispose aussi d'une carte son gsx300. J'avais besoin d'un casque d'intérieur, pour de très longues sessions de musique, jeu ou vocaux. L'idée d'avoir un casque ouvert me permettrai un plus grand confort car au bout de 8h. Le confinement auditif entraine chez moi des vertiges avec un casque fermé. Le EPOS H6 pro ouvert est clairement une très bonne surprise. Je perçois aussi bien le son environnant avec le casque c'est comme si je n'avais rien dans les oreilles ! En réalité c'est le but d'un casque ouvert : entendre les sons environnants, mais aussi un meilleur confort auditif. Connecté avec la carte son GSX 300 (EPOS) + EPOS Gaming Suite: En basses fréquences même si ça tremble, les notes graves restent précisent. Medium/voix très bien restitués, Les aigus sont nets, je conseille cependant de ne pas trop les pousser dans votre égaliseur, ça peut monter assez haut... En mode 7.1 via la carte son, je trouve la spacialisation virtuelle + efficace, naturelle. C'est redoutable en jeu ! A condition d'être dans un environnement calme. Le micro est détachable via un aimant super bien étudié et calibré. Ça ne fait pas gadget et c'est pratique ! Le bundle fournit 2 caches aimantes. Le casque est léger, plus léger que le H3 Hybrid. Par défaut le micro semble trop metalique ou aigu. Je conseille de setter les niveaux avec un égaliseur ou sur Epos gaming suite, si vous souhaitez un peu plus de chaleur. La sensibilité est bonne. Il a été fait pour une pose vocale normale sans forcer / parler fort. Pour la version Open, les coussins sont volontairement depourvus de similicuir et ce n'est pas de la mousse à mémoire de forme. Ceci est clairement choisi pour laisser circuler l'air. Les 2 câbles sont assez longs 2m et 2.5m. Attention, la connectique reliée coté casque est détachable. La connectique est solide mais hyper dure à trouver en cas de perte ou usure. Il faut passer par EPOS. Le premier câble donne vers un mini jack 4 pôles. Et l'autre se divise en 2 mini jack 3 pôles (mic et HP) C'est un casque de haute qualité pour le gaming, l'écoute musicale et les vocaux pour une utilisation très prolongée. La fatigue auditive est inexistante pour ma part après 12 heures sur les oreilles. Une réussite sur ce plan. Je n'ai ressenti aucune concession sur la qualité sonore. Ayant un H3 Hybrid (closed) j'ai pu faire la comparaison. La seule chose c'est qu'il faut juste monter un peu plus le volume sur le H6 Pro (open) c'est normal car le son est diffusé et non comprimé comme dans les casques fermés. Spatialisation 7.1 naturelle sur ce modèle, plus précise car on arrive mieux à distinguer les distances dans le jeu. Entre le H6 pro ouvert et la version fermée, il n'y a pas de "meilleur". C'est un choix avant tout stratégique, et devrait être porté selon vos préférences, votre environnement. Prenez la version closed si : - autour de vous il y a du bruit et que vous voulez pas être perturbé. - vos sessions de jeu sont courtes ( - de 2h) car vous ressentirez une certaine fatigue car l'oreille est confinée. - si vous préférez un son + souligné mais une spatialisation moins precise Prenez la version Open : -si votre environnement est calme et si le son du casque ouvert ne dérange personne autour de vous - si vous voulez porter un casque longtemps sans avoir de fatigue auditive ou accouphenes. - si vous préférez un son plus naturel, fidèle et une spatialisation plus précise. La conception est haut de gamme, ça ne fait pas cheap. Le design et l'ingénierie chez EPOS est remarquable.

Qualité sonore incroyable.micro très bon . produit de haute gamme

For the $80 I paid, I'm blown away. For a while, I've been using the Corsair HS80 to play games with on PC. Those headphones are good, but because I have arthritis in my jaw, if I wear the HS80 for too long, the pressure placed on the jaw joint eventually causes me pain, and it's even worse when I wear glasses. I put up with it for the audio quality and the wireless feature. When I first unpacked the H6Pro, they felt light. Not in a cheap way, I could tell these were built sturdy and well. When I put them on, the comfort was next level from previous experiences. I didn't clamp on my head very tightly, which gave me high hopes for longer gaming sessions. My concern was that I'd be audio quality for comfort, and I'm happy to say my concerns were unwarranted. I'm not an audiophile, but this being my first open back headset I could immediately tell the difference from my closed back HS80. While the sound itself was identical to the HS80, the depth was completely different. In games, I could more easily locate different sounds as it seemed to emulate better, whereas with closed back it sounded like a general direction. It's hard to describe, and something I feel is better experienced. Something to keep in mind, open back headphones means the sound is not isolated, so what you hear is leaking out into your surroundings, and your ears are not isolated from the outside world. This isn't an issue for my living area, but this is something to keep in mind. I also notice that because of this, I don't feel like I am having to raise my voice when talking in game chat or Discord because I can still hear myself well enough. The microphone, from what I've been told, is good but not great. My friends who I usually play with immediately noted that to me that the HS80 had a better microphone, but it isn't too big a deal. Overall, I'm very happy with this headset, and it is easily the best I've ever owned. It has brought my gaming experience to a new level, and I would recommend it to anyone. Especially at its current price of $80.
