EPOS H6PRO Headset Audio Bundle Review - Includes GSX 300 for $200!
Рет қаралды 45,485
Күн бұрынThe EPOS H6PRO gaming headset is one of my favorites for the money of all time, and now for an extra $20 (US), EPOS is tossing in a GSX300 DAC to give you more control over your sound. My idea of a "short video" ran a bit long but I discuss the differences of "open vs closed" back versions including pad changes and sound quality. I also discuss the GSX300 DAC and EPOS Gaming Suite software to hopefully help you decide what to get, if any!
You can purchase the H6PRO Audio bundle with GSX 300 DAC Here (Not an affiliate link):

Or purchase the H6PRO separately if you want different color options (Amazon affiliate):
Open-back variant: amzn.to/3MswQFR
Closed-back variant: amzn.to/3lHqiYl
Or purchase the EPOS GSX300 DAC separately if you already have the H6PRO (Amazon link):
Black: amzn.to/3ws5Wsc
Snow: amzn.to/3sLUaGF

First of all, thanks a lot for your super informative reviews! Watched this and your previous review on the H6pro like 10 times to double check if this seemed like the right product for me and a lot of your other ones over the last week(s) since my Arctis pro snapped. (I fixed it meanwhile but it snapped again as anticipated...) I've settled on the H6pro (closed) with the gsx 300 bundle and am suprised how good it sounds. When using the GSX 300 does it keep your bitrate at 16bits / 48000khz max even on stereo? I thought it was supposed to limit it when doing 7.1 but in stereo mode allow you to go up to 24 bit / 96khz? I'm using Windows 11 and am not sure of the technical capabilities on the dac. My motherboard can do 24 bit / 192khz (MSI x570 Tomahawk Wifi which uses realtek's 1200 ALC chip. Would that be better to use when just playing games in stereo mode? I'm quite a noob on the technical side of things, and I'm not sure if using the Dac will make me "lose" sound quality / details that I would otherwise get by just using the motherboard audio when I'm just using the headset for stereo mode. If thats the case it would mean switching to the DAC when I want 7.1 and otherwise use the higher bitrate? Hope you can help me clear some confusion, or if you have tips on how best to set it up (Dolby atmos with high bitrate from motherboard inputs? and just not use the dac? To be fair I have not researched this option extensively yet.) I have no clue if that would be better sound wise or if the other software will limit my bitrate / hz too? Thanks a TON again for your extensive reviews!

Awesome video man! Kind of of a weird question, if you were to switch the ear pads on the Epos H6 Pro (closed back headset with the open ear pads and vice versa) do you think it would make a difference? Keep up the great work!
@GadgetryTech 2 жыл бұрын
If you never heard either pad on the same headset, you'd be completely happy with the sound. Having said that, doing a back and forth test of both pads, I find that the closed-back pads (hybrid leather outer w suede contact) darkened up the sound a little when used on my open backs. It was more comfortable to wear, but the headset loses a little bit of the airiness that makes the open back version sound so special. I think it still outclasses almost every other gaming headset in this price range, but it's just slightly darker sounding. The Earpadz by Dekoni - Jerzee pad though was just right. Still wide/airy soundstage with excellent comfort and cool ear temps. It's a great pad on the open back so I would suggest those if you want to preserve the sound but have a softer feel. Listen to Tin Pan Alley by Stevie Ray Vaughan on them and it will blow you away.

Hi Satsan. I enjoy them both at different times to be honest. I always have them handy as I game on them a ton. The closed get's a lot louder and has awesome bass response, and sounds a little more bright up top. The open back is very neutral sounding in comparison and I wear them at night when I need to hear things going on in the house or I want an easier sound profile on my ears.

@@Natanel814 The sound of both headsets is equally amazing. The only diference is that with the open back version you can hear your surroundings, like for example, if im listening to music and someone is talking in my room i can hear them talking. With the closed back version the sound is more isolated, i wont hear people talking in my room while im listening to music So if i had to choose one, i would buy the closed back version, only because it is a little bit noisy in my house.

I have never had open headphones before, only closed one and tbh until last week I didn't know there is open gaming headsets on the market. For the reviews I read untill now the open is really good for footsteps and fps gaming what I'm usually playing. is that true? Another point is the volume, it is really not enough volume on the open version? And last question, what's your thought on the gsx 300? Is that really improving the sounds?

However before I saw that I went into the individual headphone selection and noticed that it mentioned adding the amp to the cart with the headset for the bundle offer. That way I was able to pick my headset color and then add the amp to my cart at which point it adjusted the price of the amp to $0.

@GadgetryTech 2 жыл бұрын
With the H6PRO you are paying for what is essentially a purely analog headphone. Therefore more of that money is going into the sound quality. I still think the 700 G2 sounds amazing for the money (the bass is sublime), but for more critical listening, the H6PRO is a more accurate and better performing headset. I typically never put my H6PROs away as I use them as a benchmark against all other headphones I own. I think the closed back version more directly compares to the 700 G2 of course, and they (the H6PRO) have a surprising amount of headroom for higher volume and power handling.

Hello! The latency on the Nova Pro Wireless is almost non-existent so you shouldn't notice a difference. In pure sound quality, the H6PRO closed back will definitely beat out the Nova Pro, and they are more comfortable. I think the Nova Pro is slightly better at footsteps though so it depends what's more important to you. H6PROs have much better bass response.

I got the h6pro for 130 and a used gsx300 for 29 bucks.. I used the h6pro for about an hour and they feel good but the sound is just a tad off for me, don't get me wrong they sound good, but the balance is just a touch off. I'm coming from razer black sharks v2 and thought those would be trash compared to the h6pro and other headphones I tried such as the nova 7x, so far the black sharks are on par if not better with the balance of sounds in most games i play. . maybe I'm just use to the razer black sharks sound, but dang they just sound really well balanced and games just sound right. I'm hoping the gsx300 will make the h6pro pop a bit more and having that tuning software might make it happen.. either I'm deaf and dumb or most gaming audio headphones are crap and just footstep blasters.. lol.. if anyone has good recommendations for a headset that has good balanced audio id like to know. When I say balanced I mean all sounds are in thier place, like you can hear all the sounds evenly without certain ones blasting over others. The h6pro issues I'm having are I need to turn up the volume to hear ambient sounds clearly, but when lighting strikes or I fire rounds its crazy loud because the volume is up too much, if that makes sense. I'm obviously no audio person and maybe I'm not understanding a way to balance audio so one sound doesn't wash out others or I need to find a better headset, or just stick with the black sharks. Lol..

Would this bundle be a better bundle than the fulla paired with h6 pro?
@GadgetryTech 2 жыл бұрын
The GSX gives you many more features with things like EQ (headset and mic), side tone, noisegate, and virtualization. The Fulla has more power overall so with the open back version it will help get your more volume, but at the expense of all the features mentioned above. Sonically the Fulla will be slightly more flat, whereas the GSX 300 has a softer, slightly warmer tone to it. So it all comes down to what's more important to you!

Thank you so much! I appreciate your response. Ugh! I’m just torn because I really like the closed back green h6 pro! I mainly use my headset to play warzone. I really want that competitive edge so being able to hear foot steps and knowing exactly where they might be is the most important to me. Another thing. If you could only pick one headset plus Dac/amp combo. Which would your top pick be and why? I was looking at the - SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC Wired Gaming Headset - Astro A40 with the mix amp Or -the h6pro with the gx300. Thank you again!

@@CamaGoesGym Penrose without a question, just beware the Penrose are very fragile, keep them in a stand, as for the EPOS H6pro+GSX300 the biggest disappointment of any headset i ever bought, absolutely super overrated for the price and plus they are wired. Just to give you a little perspective of what i think of the H6Pro i currently own the following headsets: Audeze Penrose X, Steelseries Arctis 9x, Razer Kaira Pro, Corsair HS80, JBL Quantum 200, Beyerdynamic DT770 pro and the H6pro+ GSX300. I just bought a cheap JBL Quantum 200 for 40 bucks and a Fiio E10K TC DAC+Amp for 60 bucks that are miles better than the EPOS combo, it's not even close. I am now waiting for the JBL Quantum One to arrive because i was just so impressed by the sound of the Quantum 200. The only thing i really dislike of the JBL headsets is the looks, all plastic and feel like toys made in China but they are definatelly more durable than the Penrose. Invest in a decent DAC/AMP if you already have a gaming headset that is my recommendation even over the Penrose which are very expensive.

@@JoseAlmeida-zm7tk I also found the H6pro's + GSX 300 combo to be really underwhelming. They just don't sound right, it sounds like you're in a can and EQ doesn't fix it for me. My old Arctis 7 2019 sound better with clearer sound, better sound stage, the bass isn't oppressive like the H6 pro's and you can increase the volume without it getting uncomfortable. Positives with the H6 pro's: they are fairly comfortable with large earcups which don't press on your ears and the microphone is fantastic with EQ. Doesn't make up for the sound so will be returning them, not worth it for 180 € and they're not even wireless.

If I had to pick, it may come down to sale prices at that point. The Recon 500, Blackshark V2 X, and HyperX Clouds are all the top choices at that price if you are okay with analog (headphone connection).

Kids nowadays have no idea how much the PC-350 was at launch... $249.99.. in 2008 was it? Scaled for inflation, that's $339 today... Compared to the 180. Yet people complain about this combo being 200? lol. You're paying 600-2k for a graphics card, yet complain about 180 for headphones.... Cmon guys. Stop complaining.

mid range gpus always been 400, the average gamer spends 400 or less on a gpu, sales statistics proves this. GPU is also what you should sink your money into as this is what gives you the most performance out of any component. Gamers aren't audiophiles so 200US is rough for people spending on mid range gaming components.

Hi 😸 Firstly, may I say Great Video again, as always. You Honestly Deserve far more Subscribers & "likes" than you get for you are Extremely Knowledgeable & take the time to explain everything where anyone can Understand, which I personally Truly hold in high regard & I Absolutely respect & Value your Videos for the Professional advice, explanation you give about Products, whatever they may be. So Thank you... Ok, I have the H6PRO Open Back Black Headset & I'm a Competitive Call of Duty Multiplayer Female Gamer on the Xbox Series X but would love to get an External DAC so I can adjust EQ Settings, especially to Pinpoint "Footsteps", but the Epos DACs aren't for the Xbox Series X, so could you please advise me on a Fantastic External DAC to buy so I can adjust EQ Settings of every Sound to give me those Pinpoint Sounds I want please. I would Truly appreciate your Recommendations. I'm also in Australia. Oh, lastly, does Dolby Atmos or DTS Work with the H6PRO Headsets ? If yes, which is better ? ( I have Dolby Atmos on my Xbox Series X ) & what EQ Settings would you recommend for Pinpointing "Footsteps" as the Priority ? Thank you again & look forward to your Reply 😸
