GAME ONE

Never used them before, so can't say. But, from my experience with owning gaming headsets over the years there's very few that actually sounded good to me. I'm at the stage where I don't really buy headsets anymore and have just currently switched to dedicated headphones for audio quality. The best headset I've used is the EPOS Game One (formerly Sennheiser), which has insanely good audio quality for a headset. Have bought two since I was so satisfied with them. For now, my setup is the Sennheiser 560 S along with a Antlion Wireless ModMic, which turns it into a headset pretty much. Currently happy with it, though the Mod Mic could be better quality for the price. Music sounds great.

Why didn't you ask chat GPT, while doing the message ? /jk I have the cloud 3 wired. Happy with it, with custom eq / unbound dts & apo equalizer, no complaints on mic so far. I had Sennheiser game ones (5 years old) before that was better in most ways but they are open headsets and i could hear everything happening after moving in with another person. Heard good things about steel séries before grabbing the cloud 3's. Just personal preference I avoid logitech headsets, always had quality issues in the past.

Honestly if you liked the sound of the A50s but hated the comfort, you’re not alone; that headband pressure gets rough over time. If comfort is your main issue, a couple solid options: * **SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7/Pro** – way better headband system (ski goggle style), much lighter feel for long sessions * **Razer BlackShark V2 Pro (2023)** – super comfortable clamp + really solid mic if you care about that * **Sennheiser / EPOS stuff (like Game One / H6Pro)** – best overall sound quality in this range, just less “feature heavy” If you’re playing FPS, I’d actually lean toward something with cleaner tuning rather than bass-heavy “gaming” sound, makes footsteps way easier to pick out. Also worth mentioning: a lot of headsets sound wildly different depending on EQ. Even something like the Nova or BlackShark can go from “meh” to insanely good for footsteps with the right setup. Just keep in mind though, any tuned setup is only as good as the current in-game audio. If the game drops a patch and changes audio (which happens a lot), you’ll usually need to tweak things again. If you want, I can help you dial in a setup specifically for the games you play

They do on Amazon, but they're an EPOS | Sennheiser collab now and are just as much as the PC38X (but better imo). I think other than the re-branding on the headset that they are mostly the same as the OG Game One.

These are goated. I love my pair. I've bought and sold them a few times (even gifted one to someone) but I've compared them to the PC38X and preferred them over them every time. PC37X were great too since they were just the Drop re-brand of these. I have a pair that I use for gaming w/ a mic and use an Arya & HE1000 Stealth for just casual gaming/music listening. I have an H6 Pro Open and the sound quality and comfort isn't anywhere close to the Game One. I don't think they'll ever make a better open back gaming headset.

Save some more money and get a Sennheiser game one headset. Might be an opportunity to get a sale after the holidays. I have had a lot of different ones and I always go back to my almost 10 year old game one the durability and soundstage are both really good.

Sennheiser Game One’s. They are very comfortable and the mic is amazing.

They're effectively the old Sennheiser Gaming One with some tweaks, which were, indeed, great headphones. No idea why Sennheiser stopped making them in favour handing most of the branding to drop and going about doing something else. I've got the GSP 600, PC38X and a H6 Pro - all these are similar and they're all great.
