Your an absolute legend I’ve recently started watching and I’ve subbed, your content is amazing and your my go to for reviews, keep up the amazing content 👏🏼
After seeing also the previous video on H6 pro and also this one I'm happy. Found replacement for my Sennheiser GSP600, so thanks 👍👍👍
You really described the two differences of open and closed back well. Im staying with Closed as I have always heard footsteps well with closed back.
I've got the h6pro open back and absolutely love them...stinking cosy and light
Just bought the h6 pros yesterday and you dropped this video I was a little nervous lol glad I picked correctly😂
I have the sennheiser 599 and hyper xcloud alpha. Super happy with both but I tend to use the Sennheiser most, especially since I started eq the bass up a bit for singleplayer games. I love the openness and the less warm ears. 🙂
Those are exactly what I have. What are you using to EQ the bass on the HD599s? I've been using the Soundblaster G6 which works on my PC and will save my EQ so I can use it on my PS5
@@chrisvillan88 I have the Dolby atmos app on Series X. :)
@@memorycard1000 is there any difference between cloud core vs cloud 2 vs cloud alpha ?
I still love my EPOS H3 Hybrid. They’ve been great all the way around. Only time I get some crackle is when streaming music from my iPhone which is rare.
They both sound really good, from the beginning i was like damn those H6 pro look awesome.
Hey techne I’ve been watching for a little over a year now, always wanted to see you do PC case reviews. Is that something you’d ever do? Your eye for detail would be great to see and some popular and more niche cases!
Love these.. may have to look at the Epos, I need a new headset for the new year
Great video, great thoughts.
Corsair HS80 vs EPOS H6 pro.
The mic on both these are AMAZING and thats the thing that is really important,you are doing really awsome to discribe the in game sound of these headset's,can you also consider how they do in music and video?
Which one would you recommend for both gaming and watching movies and TV? I see that there is a H6Pro bundle that includes a dac? Do they sound good without a dac? I would like to sometimes plug directly into my TV for watching movies...
I have the pc38x for almost one year and it's my main headset and i just bought the h6pro open back. And I'll pick h6pro for better sound quality and it super comfortable. I found my new main now.
Dude the headset was released in October of 2020 we are ten months away for them to be 2 years old
Yeah typo i mean one year.
I was deciding between the too, ended up with the h6pro open back too and absolutely love it, great sound, light, comfortable, awesome mic
Nice!
Well, I'm currently using a Purple & White colored set of HyperX Cloud Alphas (I'd bought for my gf, but were just too big & heavy for her) but I actually like the color, & I feel quite Manly in them, lol. ** Don't get me wrong, these are nice and all, but I just want the best sounding headset for PS5 possible for $500 or less (wired or wireless) I only game on PS5 rn, but getting a Series X soon. Sound quality is most important to me, but it's hard to find honesty sometimes on YT. I actually
found your channel while going down the YT rabbit hole of gaming headsets, but glad I did! I'm really enjoying your vids & honesty!
Hey techne, which headphones are the best in 2022 for gaming with pc and also can wear it with phones? Keep up the good work man 💪
I know this has nothing to do with this video but would you rather get the prime wireless or the kone pro air. And which aspects of the mouse made that decision
Yo Techne, i want to thank you for all the useful videos
Coming from a GSP 600 which one would be more of an upgrade?
Hey Techne what's better razer kaira x or logitech g335, I've seen your reviews and I feel like both of them are amazing, but in my country they are both about 60$ and I can't decide, which felt better for you? Also if you have other recommendations I would like to read them!
H6 Pro is my go too headset (open back version)...I want immersion, natural open sound-stage, good sound and the mic is an extra value for me.
Are you still enjoying this headset? I have a pair of shp9500s that I have enjoyed, but I feel like I am missing out on some audio cues and am looking for a potential other set
Any better audio quality headset?
For everything (gaming, music, movies)
I don't care too much abt the mic since am planning to use a separate one..
Am looking for the best audio quality headset, any recommendations?
Hey Techne! I’m a big fan, I am currently using the new playstation headset and thinking about getting a new one, can you help me with my decision? I am eyeing the Razer Barracuda and the Razer Kaira Wireless right now, I have watched both videos and I cant decide on which is better. I’d like to know which one you think is better to help me make my decision
I've been using the pc38x with a astro mixamp and its working well for me. The pc38x compared to the astro a40 sounds much more clear and precise vs the a40s more muddled sound.
How would you compare the pc38x with the Astro A50 Wireless?
@@FahimAhmed-xj9lq I’ve never used the A50’s but wireless would be nice. The a40s are definitely more comfortable then the pc38x, they squeeze my head pretty hard
Does the pc38x have a 4 pole trrs connect on the PC side of the cable?
@@phatcockbrand6160 the end that plugs into the mix amp also plugs into a ps5 controller like a typical auxiliary cable so I think so.
@@FahimAhmed-xj9lq Astro just doesnt sound natural compared to the Drops
Do the h6 pros require burn in timeframe to sound really good? I’m getting distortion on mine. Is it maybe just a bad unit?
I Just bought the astro a50's there Just not good. Is the epos H6pro better at hearing footsteps. Because that is al i want hearing footsteps on warzone.
As far as sound goes for competitive fps games, is the audeze mobius better than the epos h6pro or is it the other way around?
Your sound review of these two headsets actually sealed the deal for me. It was detailed, gave me a good image of what I was going to hear if I choose one or the other. Buying the EPOS H6PRO because I play competitive FPS games and don't need to worry about the environment as much. A plus, I also think EPOS H6PRO mic is clearer than EPOS PC38X. Thanks so much for the review!
awesome! So glad I was able to help
Any issues arise when using the mic to chat in discord etc while gaming with there being no mic monitoring? Just curious, thanks!
Hey cloud 2 or g pro x headset? They are both around my budget but don’t know what to get
How far do you think the sound quality between these two and Audeze Penrose?
I had such a nightmare with my EP0S H3 PRO HYBRID that even after one broken replacement, they're sending me the H6 Pro closed with their new 1000 mk2 dac/amp... Good combo???
If you play competitive the H6 are the way to go. I agree your opinion
After few research and see some video you post my final choice finish on Audeze penrose, H6 Pro and the DT770 and i need you help i play a lot FPS shooter some in competitive section for you which headphone have the best quality sound to this type of game?
I actualy have a GSP600 SENNHEISER
THANK'S FOR YOUR HELP
My mic on my PC38x isn't working on my Dell G7, only has one Jack port. Tried usb and 3.5 splitter and nothing. Does this mean I need a amp or DAC?
Techne what do you think of the hd 6xx music. I have the closed version of the h6pro , and it is nice. A little too much bass for me. But overall good for casual listening like hip-hop, rock, electronic music. It has a nice soundstage. I recommend a dac/amp for this. Need more than 10% volume and more detail. But for jazz, classical music, softsinger, audiophile listening , critical listening I would like another one. What is your opinion about the 6xx. No, gaming, no movie , just critical listening. Thanks for your work !!!
Viktor, I have the Drop HD6XX and the clamping force of those is pretty aggressive (i have a medium to small head) and for music, i find that my HD6XX are fairly dull, not bright and punchy as i would prefer...I get much better results with much cheaper AKG K240 and even with my HyperX Cloud II believe it or not. Timing is good to read your comment as I precisely tested them and also my wired Sennheiser Momentum (that I love) today by listening to Reggaeton (Bad Bunny baby), classical (Vivaldi 4 seasons L"Estate Summer III Presto (oouuuff max volume)), EDM (Darude Sandstorm), classic rock, etc... either on SMSL DAC or my standard Onkyo amp (via Digital output) and the Sennheiser H6XX did not come up as winner... Sound, like beauty is mainly a question of personal preference. Hope this helps.
Hey @The Techne Which is better sound quality wise GSP 600 or H6Pro?
Your reviews are awesome man. Great job with all the work that you do. I purchased the Sennheiser game ones. I really couldn’t take them. I found them to be too harsh. My ears were bleeding. But I do have to say the microphone was outstanding. What are your thoughts?
thank you so much
@@TheTechne 💀
If I get a hyperx quadcast s along with speakers, will it catch the speakers audio? I'm seeing some people with speakers not catching the speaker audio
Hi @The Techne! I’m your new fan here. Your review are always stinkin straight forward and honest, funny as well. Help me out here, planning to buy my first gaming headset. Should I go for razer blackshark v2 pro or epos h6pro? Looking forward for your stinkin advise 👍🏼
H6Pro👍
Hi please do a comparison between the sennheiser gsp 600 vs epos h6 pro.
please make a video on best capture card in 50-60 dollars , btw i like your content , it's stinkin cozy
I'm personally really torn when it comes to selecting a new headset to purchase. My choices are: Open Backs: EPOS PC38X, H6Pro Open, Closed: MMX300, MMX150, or even thinking about maybe getting a wireless like the Virtuoso XT or the Arctis Pro Wireless. -- I really want something with good punchy bass that is good all around (Movie, Music, Games) - Being able to turn down the bass or equalize it to help better positional audio is also important -- The only DAC/AMP I own is the Astro TR one
Same boat. i want to get rid of my Clourd Orbit S as it has software issues, it is a shame because it would be a great piece otherwise. Also looking at artics pro wifi and these sennheisers plus gsp600/670.i kind of wanna stick with a (truly working) 7.1 set. i only do Simracing and music really.
.Virtuso and mmx 150 both have earpas comfort issues
.artics pro needs a refresh with a better mic
What if you didn’t have a amp? I don’t wanna get into it that much
MMX 300 Gen 2. One of the best closed back headsets.
The virtuoso is very nice, but over time, little bugs start happening like audio fading in and out. mine are at a point where once the bass gets any louder than footsteps, it fully distorts. But mine have been mildly abused over the year 1/2 to 2 years. Could just be a small group that has these issues because I've never heard of these issues, but just to keep an eye out
How do these compare to the Logitech pro X headset?
Think they will make an H6pro Hybrid (like the H3pro Hybrid)?
When they start selling the Epos H6Pro open ear cups im sure they can fit the closed one through mebe you can try this as you have the open and closed ones.
Would the epos open back be more immersive?
The pc38x are amazing. I went from hyperx cloud 2 to Astro A40s to the 38x and it blows them away.
I ordered the Drop Epos PC38X to replace my amazingly comfortable HyperX Cloud II (mic does suck), so hopefully the PC38X will be half as comfortable as my HyperX. I am so worried about the clamping pressure since Epos Sennheiser like their headphones to clamp aggressively (my Drop HD6XX are almost too tight).
do u use a dac for them ??
@@fayezelomari I’m on console, so no. When I get a pc I will for sure use a dac
@@cac2244 are they comfy?
how are these compare to the cloud orbit S?
You should have compared the h6pro open back so that they're comparable. The h6pro open back are lighter than the closed and you'll feel your ears breath like the 38x
cover that in the video
Agreed. I wish he had compared open back to open back. I would love to subscribe to his channel, however; his blatant inconsistencies agitate me more than anything. What should have been done is a comparison of the 38x to the open back h6pros (which he has - he already reviewed those) and then added upon comments with the closed backs. Instead we got the opposite. It's just a little annoying with this reviewer at times. Too many oversights video to video.
H6pro open back is completely different foam than the closed back. The open back is VERY hard compared to the closed back H6Pro.
@@lostpacket no it isn't...I've had many headsets, I have the open back h6pro and it is so light and comfortable that even my friends bought one
@@TheTechne The sound of two openbacks would have a more apple's to apples comparison
Which one’s better PC38X vs GSP 602?
Really wish there is a comparison video between H6 Pro Open Back vs PC38X vs GSP 500(my current headset).
I agree with you for sound on these, you can EQ the PC38X to have a bump in the base from 120HZ to 200Hz and that will make your sound for grenades and steps significantly better. And still keep that immersive experience.
Exactly what I do with my sennheiser 599 for singleplayer games. 👍
true, but that wouldn't be a fair comparison for comparison for a product
@@TheTechne Yes agree out of the box yours as a very fair comparison
For single campaign games, I switch out the mesh pads for the valor pads for low end bass, and apply neutral sound settings providing a more emersive gameplay.
For FPS, I switch to the mesh with boosted high settings for competitive gameplay
Do you use the Realtek audio manager to do this ?
I bought the PC38X before watching this review and got a broken pair, great for a first start. I want to try them again but are worried for that shody craftsmanship. Will try the EPOS H6PRO next then. Thanks :D !
How'd you like the EPOS H6 PRO?
@@jimkillerx I bought the Open Back version of the EPOS H6 Pro. While it's a Good headset, I need something with a Higher impedence since my AMP/DAC combo is too powerful for this unit, but set aside power, these sound great. Accurate bass and have a Natural Sidetone (Micmonitoring) due to being open back. I would definitely recommend them for anyone trying to enjoy Competitive shooters of any sorts, since they're precise. They're just not for me, I need to upgrade to a bulkier setup with XLR mics and such sooooo God Bless my wallet
@@admirkaralic7209 Jebiga. I just got the closed version of the EPOS H6 Pro. The closed-back ear cups is suffocating my ears to the point where it’s rather uncomfortable every time I put them on, at least for the first 15 minutes. And it feels extremely weird talking while having the headset on too - it’s not something I’m used to as I’ve always previously used ’open’ version headset as opposed to closed off ones.
Other than that, the sound quality is pretty neat when it comes to video games and watching videos.. but for music, not so much.
@@admirkaralic7209 I got a Shure SM7B and it’s a great quality microphone. It is quite costly as you’d have to buy something like focusrite scarlett 2i2 and a cloudlifter, and of course the mic itself - probably runs you up to $800. You can go for the MV7 too as it is USB and XLR compatible and use can be very practical.
Hey techne big fan! Would you ever consider takin a look at the Master dynamic mg20!? It’s interesting to see another really high end gaming headset that’s wireless..
ok this is good and all but what about the £15 turtlebeach headset I got from some sketchy guy at a market, in a colour way that isn't quite right
Currently using the PC38X as my go to headset, primarily for Call of Duty. Also thinking of picking up the H6Pro (closed back) for comparison sake. One overused term in headset product reviews is "immersion". It's a crutch word like a catch-all to describe a good sound without breaking down the specifics. To me, it's either clear or it's not.
Using the PC38X for a game with s*** audio should be a crime
@@travisr1324 You're not wrong
Did you ever get the H6pro? if so, how did the comparison go?
@@chris_007 I actually did end up picking up the H6pro during Prime Days and have been using it for a bit. It's very comfortable, has a nice build quality and the sound is good, but the lack of sidetone I haven't adjusted to yet. I have it plugged into a GSX 1000 which does have a setting for sidetone but it hasn't helped. Overall though, I recommend it.
@@rorytaylor626 is the sound quality a lot better than pc38x or around the same?
H6 Pro open or closed back?
man, my headphones are trash and been holding off buying a set. but I do both comp and open world, Hell let loose too, so both audio styles are important. What would my best option be. I have a mic, so that doesnt matter
Can you put Wicked Cushions on these?
Epos h6pro with which sound card?
I love your review techne but I recently bought the Beyer 900 pro x and my god the amount of detail and foot steps i hear with these doesn’t even come close to the astros, SteelSeries, Logitech g pro wireless, i know you dont like open back but i have to say it has been one of the best gaming experiences i have had. I got 8 kills in warzone just because i could actually hear the enemy foot steps like I’ve never heard before.
a great headphones there, a bit high in the highs for me, you gotta try the 700/900 pro x
@SerFezz I was trying to choose between the 560s and the 900 pro x. Went with pro x because don’t need and dac and ended buying a dac anyways lol
@@TheTechne after having he 900 pro x I feel that I don’t hear much outside noise at all like most open backs they seem to be like half way closed back to me. But nothing has gave me the gaming experience like these.
Dude can we get a review for the Redragon Epius H360?
Which one has more bass?
I need a good wired headset for iRacing.
It has to have a noise cancelling mic ,due to the fan I have blowing my way, room gets super hot.
It has to have solid sound that won't crackel and sound like static.
check out the audeze maxwell czcams.com/video/oKTtEiC-ZAE/video.html
I have the drop version of the PC38X (with the yellow). Push me over the edge with reasoning to return them for the Audeze Penrose. I’m very close to doing it and need a better FPS headset.
I have gone for DT 900 Pro X. You need to buy a mic separately tho but a cheap mod mic may do the job (if you play on PC). Look at, I believe, fresh reviews review on them. He seems like a straight forward guy and goes on to say really good things about the imaging of them. He also reviews the pc38x, which I was thinking about picking up, but after seeing both those reviews, I could tell which was better. Your choice at the end of the day, don't know anything about the Penrose so can't help there.
Pain bc i wanna get open back but when i go back to uni open back headphones will not be possible with roommates 😂 will have to rock closed back for a few years
Great review techne!!! Dude you need to try EPOS H3PRO WIRELESS ITS WAY BETTER !!!!
Thinking of picking up the h6pro's considering they're on sale in my country right now. Question I have is how much better would these sound in comparison to my current HyperX cloud II's and if it's even worth it?
The cloud II is a budget entry headset. I've had them and they sound awful compared to any headset over 120D
H6 Pro...is a good buy. To me, even though it's pricey, under 200usd but the headphone is worthy to have that kind of price tag.
I can't stand the comments in headphone vids.. if you say something is trash or good please say what type of games you play with the headsets and why it's good or not good! Some say things are trash because they can't hear foot steps a mile away, but it would sound amazing for story games or just regular people who don't care how perfect footsteps are. Just give a little more info. We could all help each other alot more if you just gave some more info on how you game, what you like and are looking for in a headset, that way recommended headsets actually mean something other then "it's good, trust me bro" I'm not sure what "trust me bro" freaking sounds like!
This is so true. A new headsets easily been the hardest thing for me to find because the comments are just so mixed
Anyone with the H6 pros currently have any issues using the mic? Im sure it works great, but i see there is no mic monitoring and I was wondering if any of you all out there find if difficult chatting with your friends while playing because you may not hear your own voice. Thanks
As an owner of the PC38X, I find it more uncomfortable than every other Sennheiser headphone (HD599SE, HD559, HD560s). Yes the PC38x looks identical to HD5xx headphones but it doesn’t feel the same for me. It’s very clunky and the pressure distribution feels different. I might give the H6Pro a try.
Thanks for the review
Did you give them a try?
what do you think?
@@foxrootking5077 I did and sent them back. I found the headband to be quite uncomfortable for me. I might be more sensitive to clamp, but right now I use the HD58x Jubilee.
Nice review
thank you
id compare the open H6 to the PC38X cuz the H6 closed is designed as an open-back, and closed back was an after thought, which makes the sound profile kinda weird. was in debating between open or closed version until i heard that report
pc38x is the standard for gaming headphones WITH a mic attached. trust me. only thing comparable is over 1000$. for the price this headphone is the best.
talking strictly gaming here also. of course there are HEADPHONES with NO MIC ATTACHED that are better but for gaming, mic or not, these are great for the price
how about h6pro open vs h6pro closed?
Thanks to your reviews and comparisons on the H6Pro, I ended up buying them yesterday along with the sound blaster gc7 dac/amp. RIP to Epos gaming being shutdown.
Right, EPOS closing shop. Get 'em while they're hot! LOL
thinkin about buying the Master dynamic mg20 but i cannot buy anything without your review
Hey bro.... Navy blue🤔🤔...I like how you stuck what you are doing next SOUND, FEEL ect. Yeah you do not like open back lol
VZR model one , can do a review to compare
You really need to do a h6pro open v h6pro closed video
Why om earth did you compare them to closed backs version 😅
i wanna see your Review for the EPOS H3PRO - not many out there atm
It’s trash
Dont forget open back headsets leak sound that can be catched by the mic
I have a challenge for you, see if you can modify the pc38x in close back and test it…something that you can put on or take off easily, so it was a headphone for both cases🤣🤣🤣 great video thanks
I was thinking on this today.
love the pc 38x for gaming bargain for just 160
I've really fallen for open back. I have the drop pc38x and i don't know if i could go back to closed for long sessions.
Us bald guys have to be picky. leather like cups stick to my head all weird haha
Guys, for footsteps , which one would u recommend open or close h6pro?
Closed.
@@swimgood2952 not sure this way.
Open has more directional and positionning
Open
thanks for the review, however I think you are exagerating with the sennheiser PC38X flexibility and "low build quality". I have the Sennheiser PC360 headphones since 2015 and they still rock and never felt apart on me. I´m pretty sure the PC38X prob should last a decade.
I'm gaming with some audio Technica ath-m50xBT2, they tweaked the sound on these a bit compared to the regular m50x's. I've compared the differences in games and music and the new bluetooth ones "hard wired to your pc" have a perfect sound stage. Amazing detail at all frequencies. I also noticed sound direction is perfect on these too. You can tell which direction footsteps, sounds, and enemies are coming from. I will never purchase another gaming headset from here on out. Don't waste your time with gaming headsets, settle for a nice pair of headphones and pair with a separate mic or inline mic and you will be happy.
Are ssying the technicas are the best or the epos? Im confused.
@@theloudmime6992 technicas for sure
@@theloudmime6992 also after owning these for 3 months now, they are completely broke in. The sound is even more amazing
I personally don’t care if the build quality doesn’t feel super premium or well built. Sennheisers are made to last and I’ll take a nice and light headset that’s full plastic versus a super heavy one that has heavier plastic and metal.
agreed. i have the pc38x and love them.
agree, but it can be better plastics, kinda like what logitech did
@@TheTechne agreed. The lightness is great but they feel so cheap. I don’t feel like it’s a premium product.
The PC38X was my first open back pair of headphones but for me the build quality and comfort just weren't good enough for the price. If they were 100 to 130 USD, I would say that they are more worth it for sure. I decided to return these in favor of the HD 58X, which are also open back, and for me they are perfect. They are the same price as the PC38x but the comfort and build quality are much better and in my opinion the sound quality is much better as well.
I own the pc38x, HD58x, and hd560s.
My experience, the pc38x is slightly more accurate in sound direction compared to the HD58x. In addition, you still need to purchase a separate mod mic for the HD58x.
Further more, the pc38x goes on sell for $129 every so often.
Now, with the hd560s, this spanks the hell out of both of these in accurate imaging sound detection, especially with stacking, hearing the accurate details in sound coming from above or below you.
@@808jspekeg6 Thanks for the information, it is very helpful. My friend is actually looking to get the HD560s I will tell him it is a good choice. The biggest reason I like the HD58x over the PC38x is comfort. You are also right about the mic but since I rarely use one it was not really a consideration when buying a headset. Also, and this is just personal taste, but I hate how an attached mic looks on a headset. Thanks again for the comment it is very helpful for someone so new to audio.
Should have waited for a sale, i got mine $125 new on ebay.
The only complaint as a pc38x owner myself, is that it's all plastic. At 150 bucks they should be way more durable and high quality material. Other than that i love em. One of the most comfy pair I've ever owned (especially for me that i have long ass ears), sound quality is top notch and the mic is fantastic.
@davide pannone I also have big ears but my right ear can never sit comfy, any tips for me?
as an sennheiser owner, I'm sure the plastic will be good quality. I've the pc363d myself for 9 years now and it's still the same as when i bought it, even with only plastic.
@@olafduynstee7947
Same here. Mine has 8 years.
Have you tried PC38X with PS5 controller?
I like your style but should of done h6pro open vs pc38x would be more useful as they're both open.
Apples to apples 😂Great review!
Got the PC38X and the sound is amazing but the volume was way too low with everything on max. Had to get an amp and man they are amazing now. Bought the H6PRO and can’t wait to try them out

People always get the wrong perception of open back headphones! They aren’t meant for footsteps to be louder etc. They add more depth so you can tell how far or close to you someone is. I really don’t like techne take on open back headphones, it’s been proven over and over that open back headphones are just better for competitive fps. I mean there’s a reason why a lot of competitive gamers use open back headphones. I think he’s completely wrong I think most people will say open back headphones are better for depth and locational accuracy. I think his take on open back headphones is completely a personal opinion rather than based on facts. I also get everyone’s hearing is different so for some people closed back is probably better but majority shows that open back is better for fps games
Got the h6pro closed backs and their nice. Do your recommend them with a dac/amp
Good question
! Did you happen to get amp?

So happy that you are giving the 38x some more love on the channel 😊
I wish the H6 pro came in actual black.
I think a lot of the open back vs closed back depends on the person. I can’t hear footsteps or directional cues at all in closed backs. Open backs it’s fantastic.
Wonderful! Thanks! hope my comment on the last PC38X video inspired you for this haha :P
I wanted to love the pc38x but the clamp force was way too tight. Still just using my Bose qc35 since I haven’t found a more comfortable option
I canceled my pc38x order after reading this. I generally have the same issue with clamping force so I'm also using the qc35. Would be interested to know if you find a comfortable upgrade.
I have the qc35 how do you get around the inline mic. Changing the audio quality to poor. I can’t use them at all on fps with chat and I have a boom mic too but still doesn’t help
Which one has better noise cancelling ? Like if I’m typing on a keyboard for example
