    Sennheiser GAME ZERO Special Edition Gaming Headset

    • Not the best headphones, no bass but clean sound otherwise.
    • Here, the sound is good but not overwhelming
    • Paired with a Sound Blaster Zx and some software tweaking and some time burning in the cans and these things Really bring out some great sound
    • Overall I gave it a 4/5 for comfortability, crisp sound (remember for consoles you need the astro $130 amp mixer) and build
    • The sound is good, I've never had any issues with audio quality, though I'm not very
    • Great sound for the price, even better when ran with a sound card or amp!
    • I was told by my friends that the sound of my voice sounded very "cheap quality" like
    • the sound is really good
    • Lastly, as gaming headphones, the sound is quite boring
    • However, apart from the fact that you can hear everything clearly, the sound is terrible - both for music and just enjoying the sound of explosions in movies or games
    • -The sound is great, I love it
    • Comfortable, great sound (while using amp) and great mic
    • They delivered no bass in game's but sounded fantastic with music
    • I'm not saying they could keep up with mix-worthy headphones like the HD600, which I've been using for years, but the zeros are still great sounding, both in frequency response and spatially
    • Overall I would recommend these to a friend looking for a nice set of cans that trap the sound.
    • The surround sound is just flawless in my opinion and makes call outs much easier and more accurate
    • I have worn these geadphones for a wgile now and really enjoy the sound and comfort of them while gaming.
    • The sound from this headset is AMAZING
    • Sound is absolutely amazing
    • And great sound.
    • The sound and build quality on these headphones are great
    • Great headset crisp bass, clear sound, great microphone with flip up to mute function
    • I'm disappointed, as Sennheiser sound is normally quite good
    • Great set of cans the sound is very spacious when paired with Astro Mixamp
    • However, the sound is good and rich
    • Deep bass and clear sound
    • is that you will need an amp mixer to bring more bass and louder sound
    • Seriously guys, these things were incredibly clear and rich sounding, best set of headphones I have ever owned
    • Great sound qualityComes with traveling caseLooks and feels high qualityOne of the best mics for a gaming headsetVery comfortableFoldable for easy storageWorks with phones and consoles, but needs an amp to access full potentialCons:Can get hot in warm climatesNeeds an amp to work with
    • Great sound even with onboard audio.
    • But still there was no sound issues, and this is by far the best gaming headset I've ever own, comfy and really good sound, just makes a pleasant gaming experience all round.
    • Very clear sounding to my other game patrons.
    • Great sound and great mic.
    • If you want great sound that can get some volume to it then try these
    • I was using a Revolver before this, and I can tell, the Game Zero is another level, very comfort, high volume, clear sound
    • The cable also brushed against my shirt a lot causing a very annoying sound in the headset
    • Physically the cable feels soft, but any movement (I jiggle my leg a lot) makes a very distracting sound in only the left ear.
    • Its very nice sounding
    • Would I buy this again, no... would probably have to get something that actually has solid sound, with great bass
    • and I enjoy a bass heavy sound and crank it up a lot too
    • Nice headphones, great sound, terrible base, not worth the
    • This product, while having one of the best sound stages as well as a really nice look, one of the best microphones of a gaming headset, and really comfortable to boot, has one MAJOR bad part about it
    • It is too light to wear for a long time, and the sound is also the best
    • If you can afford buy this one you get a cool holding case with it and the sounds not good not great but awesome i am sure there is better out
    • Amazing headphones - sounds are fantastic and the microphone is very clear with little to no background noise!
    • And the above holds true even when I tried software for surround (razer surround was tried), and also the sound took a blow when using such software
    • The Mic sounds great as well
    • Sure, the quality is great, sound is absoultey amazing, and the microphone is crystal clear, as well as one of the most comfortable headsets I have ever worn
    • even on loud volume the sound is as pure as can be, no distortion, humming, buzzing.maybe someday i can afford some of the higher end headphones to see how they compare to these amazing ones.
    • The special editions have absolutely no bass with an extremely hollow and tinny sound
    • Happier with the Logitech for the price, but still looking for a better sound and quality set of headphones.
    • Well built sound great, would recommend an amp
    • Great sound straight out of the box on ps4
    • Recommended by a friend and performing very well with the addition of my sound card makes sounds crisp and clear
    • The worst sounding mic ever
    • Amazing sound best
    • It doesn't pick up background noise too much, so it gives for crisp sound when you speak with people
    • Works great sounds great
    • Works great sounds great
    • Worst still though is that the exterior braiding is so rough that the slightest movement causes extremely loud sound to travel into the cans from the cable rubbing on even the smoothest of materials
    • These cans have incredible sound... they sound so
    • so it picks up all sorts of unnecessary sounds like... for example a PC sitting right next to you
    • With bass added this headset is both comfortable and great sounding.
    • sound is great in this headset
    • Besides drivers and other software, I never did anything to improve the sound because everything I had read said my MB integrated sound card was more than enough to get good sound out of this headset
    • It’s not crazy sounding like the other sennheiser headphones, but the drivers are great for gaming and give you a pretty realistic sense of your surroundings like footsteps.
    • Because with out it, you won't be able to enjoy the crispy and clear sound that this bad boys produce
    • the HD 485's sound better, have more bass, and don't require any special amplifiers to get optimal sound out of them
    • If the sound on these out of the box sound weak, take a look at your computer's on-board sound driver/software (ex
    • This is a great headset with very crisp sound
    • Considering that I was able to spend only $90 on the G930, which has some really great sound, I was highly disappointed in these
    • Great sound in and out
    • After trying many headsets, this was the only headset I was able to find that gave me proper surround sound for Fortnite
    • itisn't the best for gaming because it doesn't have surround sound (for hearing directions of sounds)It looks really clean and well designed, however my Corsair Vengance 7.1 has better audio for gaming
    • I would only suggest these if you're sitting around other people a lot, as they trap the sound in the cups where the GAME ONE will be heard by others around you
    • I tried them immediately but with a big dissapointment as the sound was VERY poor
    • The sound quality plugged straight into my laptop is great, however lacks virtual surround sound by itself
    • Great sound
    • Sound is absolutely amazing, expect no less from Sennheiser
    • The sound was pretty good until the popping started and the microphone worked extremely well
    • The closed backed ones trap the sound
    • Volume knob on the side doesn't adjust as much as I would like, I still have to adjust the sound on the devices if to loud or soft to bring it in range where I can make small adjustments on the headset it self.
    • Great sound, great quality.
    • , MixAmp pro TR seems to be the only compatible oneNo on ear or in-line controlsThe bottom line is if you are willing to sacrifice some ease of use, you will be rewarded with great sound and comfort, prefect for PC, however with consoles you will need to spend approximately and extra $130 on a mixamp for it to work properly.
    • This particular module was chosen over the others due to the fact that it was able to produce stunningly clear sound from multiple sources ( streaming pandora while playing a game while talking on teamspeak ) and never once has any source sounded drowned out or did clarity become an issue.
    • I would recommend getting a internal sound card if you really want the best sounds and a little more bass when listening to music
    • Great sound
    • Over the ear headphones are just great, much cleaner and crisp sound compared to ear buds, this is basically as good as it's going to get before going to a complete surround sound system
    • The mic sounds great
    • The sound is superb
    • Both the headphones' sound and microphone exceeded my expectations
    • KNOW ABOUT?)Summary is, perfect sound, great bass, comfortable, you get what you pay for
    • Also i'm using Sound Blaster x7 amplifier for better surround sound great for gaming and movies👍👍.
    • I would recommend these for anyone that wants a comfortable set of headphones with a great mic and sound.
    • I won't forget to mention that Sennhezier doesn't have even an app to adjust mic/sound settings like Razer for example
    • Sound is fantastic, and crisp
    • Comfortable, good sound, good mic, but not worth the price tag.
    • The noise cancellation is wonderful and definitely adds to the great sound and helping you get immersed into what you are doing
    • Overall, for console players, just make sure you get some type of amp to get the full potential out of these, it can get pricy but if your looking for some of the best sound you can
    • The sound are fantastic and it works great
    • The sound are fantastic and it works great
    • However, apart from the fact that you can hear everything clearly, the sound is terrible - both for music and just enjoying the sound of explosions in movies or games
    • The sound was horrendous
    • The sound clearly improves a little bit, for me at least.
    • These have a somewhat scratchy sound anytime the cord moves along my cotton clothing, like jeans.
    • THIS IS NOT A SET FOR THOSE WHO LIKE BASSY MUSIC!!!Other than that, the sound is outstanding, you hear every little detail in your games
    • Phenomenal sound
    • Good sound and amazing mic sound quality; it comes in a very nice portable case
    • Sound is amazing and the microphone is unbelievable
    • I wanted something with a little warmer sound and slightly more bassy
    • Has that same great quality sound, with an awesome microphone attached which works a lot better than having a separate microphone in front of you
    • It's a good headset, I prefer open sound
    • Mic is perfect as well as the sound
    • solid sound, solid mic, great headset
    • like the cleaner sound the G5 provides
    • Sound isn't that great
    • They are worth the price so far he has good quality sound and his gamer friends say he sounds great so I am highly satisfied
    • Not selling this as the end all headset, but if you want reliable quality sound and microphone, this will give you that if you take care of it .
    • It works, sounds great, even better
    • The sound was really excellent without any burn-in whatsoever
    • Pretty poor quality on everything but the actual sound of the headphones if you ask me
    • Extremely muddy and tinny sound -- even when paired with an amp/dac (Fiio E10K, Sennheiser GSX 1000)
    • Sound is amazing, feel amazing, durability and quality is amazing; they're just amazing.
    • Mic QualityMic quality is top notch as well, not much to say here other than the recordings sound great, and people can hear me fine
    • AND THE SOUND IS CLEAN for all you beats
    • it's no powerful enough to output great sound to this headphones
    • Great sound
    • Sound is horrible for gaming
    • The sound that comes out is also clear
    • The bass is great, the surround sound is amazing (I use 7.1 surround all the time, no reverb, and EQ set to "music").I find myself frequently taking off my headsets just to verify that the sound is not coming out of speakers and annoying everyone in the house
    • Not properly amped, and you will not get the proper sound stage you are looking for.
    • These headsets are great for gaming clear sound and mic.
    • But they cost $100 more, require a batter to get the better sound, and frankly the Sennheiser mic is better due to its position, size, and noise cancelling design
    • The sound is loud, the sound stage is amazing for a closed head headphone (feels like its open!
    • Very clean sound for both music and gaming
    • The sound is perfect, the ear pieces are soft and still breathable, love that I can mute the mic by moving the mic up and down
    • Great sound but can barely hear it
    • The bass is great, the surround sound is amazing (I use 7.1 surround all the time, no reverb, and EQ set to "music").I find myself frequently taking off my headsets just to verify that the sound is not coming out of speakers and annoying everyone in the house
    • Great sound and control.
    • However, I use these with the Astro mix amp and the sound is outstanding
    • paired with a cheap sound card, the only issue i've had was lack of experience tuning a quality headset to sound perfect with a sound card.
    • Great sound, great mic, outstanding comfort
    • the best!You'll want a nice sound card with these for them to work properly
    • the best!You'll want a nice sound card with these for them to work properly
    • They have amazing sound and don't require as much power to get top notch sound out of
    • High bass and High Boost is my ideal sound
    • if you want the bling, this is it, if you want a pleasing audio experience, there are $50 headphones on the market with better sound
    • Closed sound is terrible, and the sound quality is far less than that of the 360's
    • Amazing sound and extremely comfortable so far
    • The sound truly is very crisp and clear
    • I use a USB sound card that I had lying around to connect this directly into the PS4.
