This is exactly what i feared when EPOS and Ol'mate sennie made this deal. RIP :(

PC38X is still the legend, no regret buying it after watching Chris Pratt

Thanks for including a VR headset test, it's a wellcome addition

While I agree on the volume wheel, I have to disagree with the overall conclusion. I find the H3 significantly more comfortable both in terms of the new thicker memory foam, and suede finish. To me the increased comfort alone is worth the extra costs. Even if The pads wear out quicker, its a trade off im willing to make and can always replace them. Hate pleather on skin as it makes me sweat.

Still running my old Game Zero paired with their GSX 1000. Amazing for gaming and music.

I feel like the title is a bit click bate. I have had the H3 for a week now and when it comes to sound quality it is much better then my Hyper X Alpha, and leaps and bounds ahead of my Arctis 7 Pro. Directional sound in stereo is the best I have had in any headset. I don't care that much about how long the ear cups will last, EPOS sells replacements. I want good sound quality and a mic that is better then average. Is the build quality top notch ? I think it is for how light it is. People overlook the G Pro Headsets terrible mic quality, or the Razer headsets lack of quality control, and HyperX's insanely confusing naming structure. What I got from this review was. Great Sound, Good Mic, Good build quality for the weight, with the cons being cable noise (lolz) and ear cups that might ware out quickly. How is that overall a BAD headset ? What I am hearing is a Sennheiser fanboy mad that Senn is dead, I mean they could have had a single new idea over the last 20 years, but they just rested on their name and well, now they are part of a hearing aid brand ....

GSP 350 FTW. I've been rocking them for a couple of years already, still working perfectly.

Thanks for making an honest review! Many reviews are just too euphoric but this is good! It looks like we've got a successor for the GSP300 and GSP600 here which have never been top of the line headsets. I hope they engineer a true successor with a broader frequency response to the Game One but I don't know if they are capable to do that. Epos is still selling the 10+(?) years old Game One on it's website and I don't know any better open gaming headset, yet. (There is no PC38x in Europe.) The only alternative I've seen was the Audio-Technica ATH-PDG1A but that one looks really outdated.

Still using the Sennheiser PC360. Those things sound quite amazing.

Its like did they even test any of this stuff out before releasing it into the wild

I own the GSP 300. Great gaming headset overall, i really like it. But Dimitri, it is hard for me to believe that your earpads are in such an excellent state after 4 years of use. Mine barely last for 2 years before being torn open from the inside. I bought mine in 2018 and it has happened twice so far, both to the initial earpads and to the replacement earpads (bought from the official website). The replacement earpads are pretty expensive too. Around 20 euros (with shipping fee). You probably do not use them as extensively as someone who has them as his main headset and it is understandable of course since you must use multiple headsets for your job.

Love my GSP 500 and GSP 600

After 3 months of using Epos H3, I would say it is better than GSP300 (for me). It’s more comfortable and closer sound stage is good for gaming.

3:55 would you say they were uh...trying to reinvent the WHEEL? xD

Can you PLEASE do the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT next? Would love to hear your opinion on this

u should review the new refresh of the corsair virtuoso....the virtuoso XT

Could you review the fairphone 3+? I think it makes a very important statement in the smartphone industry.

I loved my PC360, currently using Senn HD598 SE or Beyerdynamic DT770 80ohm + modmic, HD598 SE are my favorite. SO comfortable, no earcup wumble/slack noise like my Beyerdynamic, but with the AC running in summer, I need closed headphones to hear something in games.

I'd like to see a video on how to make your custom keyboard from the switches, the layout, and the key caps. I would expect it to be quality from Canucks because he knows what to show in b roll

anyone still interested in buying these should know 2 years later and the price has bottomed out. I'm seeing these for around $50 USD. i think at that price these are finally priced right.

Really hope Drop keeps offering their 37x and 38x units.

So, I'm not the only one that got the GSP600 earpads which got the soft part on the inside ripped in matter of 2-3 months of daily use...

I bought the gsp300 after watching some reviews and was not disappointed by it ... now I'm using the fidelio x2hr and also the akg k612pro for gaming ... really nice, love the open back ... For now playing Horizon Zero Dawn, I've started it on ps4 and haven't finished it so I'm trying my best to complete the game on pc.

When will you do a review on the h6 pro also from epos

Currently I gave my PC to my girlfriend. Recently her love is in game from Steam Devil May Cry 5 and because hers 2017 HP Sectre AMD APU laptop is not capable to do more stuff than browsing chrome or watching Netflix - really because I love her more than my PC I let her play... Boot-up time of this laptop is longer than 2 minutes :( Oh! Windows 10 is operating system Cheers Dimitryj! Love your headset videos! Keep it up man!

Greate video! Got the GSP300. Real good for its mony

It looks cheap, but not horribly so. The sound quality and mic is still excellent, it is comfortable. It's not all bad, just not as good as previous senns because of the build(which had good and bad points) but mainly the volume wheel. I just Hope the don't do that single hinge design for the next open backs. Good thing I bought a pc37x and 2 pc38x, I'm good for a while.

Does the Sennheiser Pc38x have sidetone feature? Mic monitoring with no delay? PLS I NEED TO KNOW

What about H6PRO ? Are they good enough to pay 180$ for them ?

Please do a full review of the h6pro, you just mentioned them in other videos

Will you be reviewing the newly revised Corsair Virtuoso XT?

hey Dimitri, this isn't relevant to the video but which one would you say is better, the Logitech g pro x wireless or the hyperx cloud ll wireless?

6:11 EPOS H3 mic 7:12 Sennheiser (EPOS) GSP300 mic

imagine watching this while using epos h3, sadge

What would you recommend for the best overall sound but also the best 3D audio, so not just sounds that are around you at ground level like in shooters, sounds that are coming from overhead like planes etc with pin point accuracy?

Vr headset review incomming ! :3

waiting for more EPOS Headset reviews

Thanks for the review Canuck. I'm playing Rainbow Six Siege and I will be playing Battlefield 2042 when it comes out. I'm really stoked for BF2042.

do you plan on reviewing that new sound blaster amp?

Heard in this review you played EFT, so whats your no budget dac/amp headphone combo? Im not unhappy with my set up but was wondering if you had a magic EFT combo for the extra sweats 😂

Just finished playing Ori and the Will of the Wisps, up next for me is Metro Exodus, I liked the first couple Metro games but they definitely felt a bit dated. Too bad EPOS have missed the mark with this one. Can only hope Sennheiser's consumer division being sold recently doesn't have a negative impact on the quality of future products.

Great review

Still have my PC 37x and Razer Black shark v2. I just ordered the PC 38x after the price drop this week. Although sometimes I still use my AT M60x + modmic. Good to know this dam headset has a dam awful volume dial and cable noise. This is what I feared from Epos now that Sennheiser is gone.

I love how they change the title of the video though 🤣

So if i get this for 50 bucks it's worth?

I'm playing Hunt: Showdown for quite a while. It has the best audio game with binaural audio. May be it's also the best game to test gaming headset too.

Happy enough with my PC37x. Hopefully EPOS actually makes something decent in the future.

Can you do a review of the Corsair virtuoso xt

Even tho this review isn't very positive I think I'll pick up a pair of these. Got a deal on it atm for free shipping + $59 USD right now, so the price has come down a lot it would seem. I have a pair of GSP-350 atm which have been quite nice but the cable eventually got screwed (what happens to all my headsets seemingly), which means mic gives crazy feedback into headset.

Excited as always!

@Hardware Canucks What features does a headphone need to be a gaming headphone and why? Can you review some audiophile headphones like the Hifiman Sundara, Focal Elegia and ZMF Atticus and compare them to gaming headphones for sound quality and long hours comfort?

Hi, what you recomand EPOS H3 vs GSP 500 ? They are the same price around 60 euro, or can you recommend something better regardless of whether it is wired or wireless? Tnx

Tilting the microphone up feature on my PC 363D has been apparently failing as I have seen the microphone activate with the microphone up.

Still rocking my PG-1 from Audio Technica. Still good. Sad to see Sennheiser no longer making these headphones Speaking of expanding your library, tried the Nier series and the recent remaster of Nier Replicant/reincarnation?

Yow Dimitri, is this a good pair if priced for just $70?

I was a bit scared when I heard that EPOS would be taking over the Sennheiser Gaming products. Unfortunately, this shows that I'm right. Hopefully, Sonova carries the torch with Sennheiser's audiophile products. The latest flagship release (IE900) is a good start.

Still rocking sennheiser g4me one with GoXLR mini and the kinda new logitech G pro X with Epos GSX300 dac on the second PC.

My old headset was the gsp 300. It was so good but I hated the cable because it always got tangled on itself. Mainly switched my headset because I wanted to get wireless. Got the Steelseries arctis 7's and well the gsp's sound guality is much better. Now my sister is using my old gsp 300's

Me watching this with Hifiman Arya's just to enjoy the review.

I have a Sound BlasterX H6 headphones and I am happy but today I saw an amazing deal about 49€ for the Senheisser Epos H3 , Do you think that is interesting to change to the Epos H3 or is the SoundlasterX H6 a similar quality product and it is not necessary to do the change ? Thanks

Sound-wise, how do these compare to the PC 38X? (right now still playing Skyrim SE, lol)

My PC38X has a problem with the volumen wheel and right side volumen is way lower than the left side ... I really liked the headset

10:45 I play overwatch mainly, it's in a good state right now and the more you understand the game the more you like it (playing in masters is really good atm) I also play a bit of valorant, r6, quake but eu is dead rn so I can't play it much really.

Seems that the Turtle Beach Recon 500 is a better deal and cheaper. Maybe a comparison would be beneficial and Epos gets the memo of not trying to reinvent the volume wheel...

Hi everyone! Hope your having a fantastic day!

Wow man! That's fantastic 🔥

Don't think I've seen Dmitry be this visibly irritated on a video before.

Bought the EPOS GSP670's expecting a flagship product, but found out after 2 replacements that they're faulty by design with obvious audible white noise whenever the headset is on. RIP Sennheiser quality.

I think its pretty good. They made it Modern. Doesnt look so bad anymore.

You should compare these with some budget JBL headsets

Would you say this is better than the Corsair HS50’s? :)

also games ive been playing are risk of rain 2 heavily modded elderscrolls online currently

These headsets are some exciting gaming gear options for PC users.

Pls can you test headsets with esports titles like CSGO, R6, etc where footsteps and other sounds play a major role

Why you never made a review on MH630, it has an excellent mic (much better than my G-PRO X) , but i wish it had a better build quality! Can you review CM MH630?

You do realize that the people that made Sennheiser gaming headsets are literally the exact same people who develop EPOS headsets, right? The Sennheiser gaming department were always separated from the professional audio departments.

Is the microphone removable on these headphones?

I can get that for around $55 here in india . I think its a pretty great deal

Man my PC350's that I got back in 2009-2010 was my fav headset of all time and sadly died after I keep rolling over the wire too many times with my chair.

It’s 50 buck on Amazon should I pick it up?

Didn't Sennheiser fully dissvole minus their pro products division? I heard they got brought out by a medical hearing company

So is the audio quality and bass better than the gsp 300?

hi, what do you thing about JBL Quantume one? or 900 wireless

How they sound compared to gsp600? The bass here have the power that gsp have not?

not offense but my gsp300 ear pads peel off in less than 2 years sir.

I just bought the h3 for 60 bucks at GameStop on clearance was that a bad deal?

Why does it say "This video is sponsored by ????." in the description?

This is funny that I am seeing this. I bought a headset over the weekend and was super disappointed because the sound sucked and the mic was soso. It was the Steel Series Arctic 1. The sound was so closed in, not clear at all. Now my original set up was a Superlux HD668, and the best cheap mic around that rivals even other high end mics.....sony mic $10 back then and it was so good and stereo mic I bought 2! I used a mic/headphone y cable. The sound on these headphones are nice clean loud and dynamic but almost neutral and balanced which I love. Since it's semi open back the sound is super wide you can pick details and positions so well it's like your cheating. I would call it need studio quality sound. I have owned the superlux for 6 years with heavy use. Only reason I was shopping for a headset is because my 6month damaged my y splitter and I couldn't wait since it was the weekend for me to relax lol. $30 headphones+$10 is killer combo! Don't need anything else.

Putting the build issues aside, the fact that they don’t sound as good as the GSP 300 is the saddest part to me. When you add in that they cost twice as much, it’s just baffling. How did they mess this up? All they needed to do was give the 300 a removable cable and it would’ve been the perfect entry-level headset.

Just purchased one of these at GameStop on clearance + sale for $70. Can't complain, but also don't feel that it was worth the $120 original price.

i got my h3 for 40buck on an outlet

I have moved to buying rubber cables for all my headphones. If durability is a feature of braided cables... I just don't care when you have to deal with that rubbing sound.

I hope my PC38X last longer than my Logitech GPro or I'm gonna have a crisis...

I am looking for a new headset as mine just recently broke. I am currently coming from hyperx cloud alphas and overall they were pretty solid in the time they worked. I am looking for something with a more solid and clear sounding microphone. In todays market right now with all the options out there, what would you go with?

what is a good pair of heaphones that still use a 3.5 jack of comes with an adapter i have a gsx1000 so trying to find a headset for it

I bought them to eventually replace my game one headset. But I had to send them back. Not an upgrade from the good ol’ game one. Which is also quite cheaper than the H3 now. Also the volume wheel doesn’t adjust volume that much. Compared to their older models.

chad for playing chivalry

should i buy mh751 or gsp 300 ?

In QHD laptop if I Play games in 1080p resolution then game will run blurry??

I've had the HE for about a month and it's not that bad. I've had the GSP300 previously and I prefer the H3. I did buy a rubber replacement cable and use that instead of the braided cable so I don't have that issue. I don't think it's that bad of a headset. If anything, it's the $119 price that hurts them. Too many sub $100 headsets that do similar if not better.
