EPOS H6PRO Open GreenH6PRO Open Green

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 withI 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

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.

Great quality audio and super comfortable, one thing to note is if you set it up and audio seems quiet, the wire going into the headset needs turning to a set point once fully inserted to get full quality

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.
