Been hoping you’d review these, thanks Techne! Really like them personally, and the giveaway being available to us Canadians is deadly, thanks! Still not sure for open or closed… want to make the switch to open but so hard to know til you try em.
Finally a review that really shows the differences between these two... Thanks Techne
Ive been fairly new to the whole pc gaming thing (got mine 6 months ago) so ive made a lot of decisions from your reviews so I very much appreciate the work you do, and the detachable mic is big
Is these headsets are you able to lol your teammates voice in the background while you in the game on the PS five like the Astro a 40s?
Wow, those definitely demolished my expectations! Those are some really nice headphones. I might just buy a pair for myself sometime...
Thank you for showing the differences (and similarities) in detail, much appreciated.
I went with the open version as I use them in a quiet environment - wider soundstage, cooler ears, and at £70 they were a stinkin' steal.
Nice video, you are officially now one of my favourite tech CZcams channels because of how frequently you post, the quality of your reviews and all the giveaways you do. Keep it up! 👍
I personally have an open and closed back headphone / headset for gaming being the Corsair HS70SE and Drop x Senheisser Jubilee X58s which offers a variety gaming sounds depending on th3 games I play. Admittedly, I use my Jubilee x58 more often then the HS70SE.
Yeah same it's just that open back gives you a more spacious feeling instead of the sound feeling trapped inside your headphones/headset. But for gaming imaging is still more important than sound stage.
Seems like we have some winners. I really like the volume knob position and mic sounds pretty darn good too
I ended up with the open back after watching your numerous reviews on it and a bunch of others. I love them, they are the best headset I’ve owned - which isn’t saying much since I used to have a ton of turtle beach in the 360 days, then a hyperx cloudx and then Astro a10.
can u plz give me your opinion on the mic picking sound from the headset and does it have an impact on your gaming experience.
I'd really like to know as well, whether it picks up the sound from the headphones
@@1stFraVeI have h6pro open back, and haven’t experienced mic picking up sound coming from headset.
not sure if you even still exist but does the closed back pick up more background/mic noise?@@Max44611
I always watch your channel for headset reviews and i found it very helpful and informative. Whenever you say its stinking cozy that is the one to buy.
I’ve been watching your reviews. awesome detail video as usual! I’ve never had any Epos headset. Been searching for a headset for months! I love your vid about razer, hyper x, and steel series now I’m going to look into epos.
I've always loved how you mute the mic on Sennheiser/EPOS headsets... Upgraded to the H6Pro (open) from my 5-year-old Game one headset and I'm very happy indeed... top-quality headset!
I didn’t get the chance to thank you for your stinkin awesome review for the Corsair Virtuoso , it’s exactly what you said , Thank you and keep up the good work 👍🏼
Love your vids man, your a great reviewer and i look to you for info all the time brother. thanks and keep it up
Thanks for the detailed review techne. I’ve been trying to find a good headset with the right features and these strike a good balance.
Thank you for the detailed review. I just ordered a pair of the closed one for myself and I will be taking them out for a spin on Friday :)
Yo how were they my dude???
@@louieduarte7436most def the best headset I have used. Amazing sound, feels well built, the magnetic mic still surprises me when taking off and on. At first I felt them a little heavy since I used smaller headsets before but it gets to a point that you forget you have them on. Chose the closed ones over the open ones due to noise outside my window during the day which is when I mostly play. One of the few buys that doesn't leave you wondering if you could've made a better decision. Now it's up to you to choose between the open or closed one. Hope I answered your question
Appreciate your reviews. Always check your channel before I buy a new headset 👍
Pretty entertaining watching this, especially a year out, with so many new products out, and so many more reviews having come out since, including yours. I think what you were trying to say about open vs. closed back is the open back are considered to have a wider soundstage, and sometimes more pronounced mids (so you can hear footsteps easier), which appeals to many gamers, lol. I feel like you have really learned a lot in the last year, your reviews just get better and better (I have learned a bunch too, from you and other similar reviewers). I recently picked up the Audeze Maxwell, and your review was one of the ones that helped me with that decision. Even though I have that box checked, I am now sorta hooked on the gaming and audiophile headset hobby, probably will be for a little while. So, while I don't need any more headphones or headsets... I will surely end up with some. Btw, your biggest gripe with these, the price, well they are now down to $120, so if you don't need the latest and greatest, that issue is solved. I am seriously considering picking one up. The Game Zero closed back is now down to a ridiculously low $50 - makes you almost hard not to buy it. Part of the whole youtube-amazon-consumer phenomenon - it's sort of a weird consumer-entertainment dopamine loop that seems to be a thing that has developed and mushroomed. So many video reviews to watch about so many different products - it's better than Netflix. Anyway, I hope you can keep these videos coming, they are really entertaining and informative, you have a great, down-to-earth friendly no-bs style, very refreshing.
How good are the Game Zero's? I'm looking for a closed back alternative to the pc38x.
right when i was looking for a new headset, nice timing for this video
I was wondering when you were gonna get to these. Been hearing a lot about them, and I'm looking forward to your breakdown on closed back vs. open back headphones. The price doesn't bother me too much. Quality comes at a cost.
Ooooh, I'm loving the outro nature sounds. I love the sound of frogs croaking in summer.
just picked these up today to replace both wired MS stereo headset and steelseries nova 3 wired headset. I’m a console gamer, sitting at a desk with a monitor….hands down, this headset blows both out of the water in all aspects. I agree with the price concern. That said, picked them up from bestbuy on sale for $136. At this price, it’s a no brainer. Such an amazing headset. 👌
Nice to see another give away for Canada lol great vid as always
Keep up the great work techne!!
and btw gl to everyone who enters the giveaway ;)
Got the same feeling right there, I think EPOS makes high quality gaming headsets, but with a relatively high price range. Anyways GLHF on CoD Vanguard my man!
I love the way you do these giveaways I love your videos as well keep up the good work.
I just watch you for your personality because you make me stinkin cozy.
watching your reviews is sticking cozy to me
:)
you care about the cost. This keeps me watching your videos. Thank you for your hard work. Please be careful on your dirt bike you are not 25 years old!
Your reviews is so informative and helpful , forrreal
I alomost bought a pair of Epos thanks for the review your always honest about the products thank you
I just realised I won a giveaway back in october, but my gmail notifs were off. hopefully I'll keep track next time, the videos are what's most important anyways and I'm glad to be able to watch your videos for free!
Edit: I think I know the real reason why, my samsung phone broke around the time I entered and I got a new phone after I had won, but I didn't get the notification as I had just switched devices. I guess that's some unlucky timing! Keep up the good work as always!👍
Sitting on the predecessor several generations back. Sennheiser PC360 G4ME and will probably upgrade to the H6Pro. I love open headsets but I've heard from several ppl that the closed H6P just sound a lot punchier. Probably will go with the closed ones. Thanks for the good review. I like your review style. (:
Thank you so much, it it wasnt for you I wouldn't have picked these amazing headphones up
Great review! In my opinion, the razer blackshark v2 x is a really good headset for its price
Thank you for review.
When you compare H6pro with PC38x, which one is better??
Ive memorized most of your speeches during watching your well judged and honest videos.. ask me anything and I’ll shock you how much I’ve learned from your channel.. I’ll be so honored winning a headset but am not so lucky.. getting a pair from techno is just not believable its a pleasure and the main value of the headset..
first time here, love your energy and openess
I am looking at gaming headset specifically for Sim racing (iRacing, ACC, R3E). I think EPOS H6 Pro Open-back will fit me pretty well because the audio is usually pretty loud so i think the open-back will give the sound that breathy airiness that is needed.
have the open set coming. can't wait!!!!!!!!
Love the review man. I'm deffinetly a open back kind of guy.
Thank you for a great rewiev, man! For someone who have been wanting a pair of good headphones for mostly music, but gaming and movies as well, is it worth getting epos? I don't understand a lot in how headphones set and work, but I want them to be as close to the original as possible(to be neutral? I guess). So is it hard, or even impossible, to balace them or it is just better to take something "not for gaming"?
Techne I love that you don’t script your videos.
Another great Techne collab giveaway I can’t get here in Australia 🤯😢😭
Nice review! These are good looking headsets!
The mic sounds really good with those. 180 is a bit but I dunno man. Some really cool features with that!
Great review! Thanks
These headphones are looking great. Great vid
Bought me and my sister these and we love them ❤
How does the close back compare to the Corsair HS80?? I'm torn between the two!
i'm happy that you compared the sound to the 99 Neos, mainly because i have the meze's haha, they are by far my favorite headphones, so good
man I love the Neo's
It would be awesome to have international giveaway. Btw really love your work man ! Coming from France.
I'm playing with my sennheiser p350se and this one may be replaced it
My Cap is Sound quality and functionality, if they’re comfortable, not to heavy and not too light. Simple and has a good mic(if it comes with one) then I’m all for it. I don’t really care about looks when it comes to gaming headsets.
Thanks for another great video.
Thank you for the review, I have a question between two choices. I game a lot but i also spend a lot of time on youtube and listening to music when im not gaming, even more so than gaming usually so would these be better than say a blackshark v2? If not would you recommend an alternative that leans more towards sound for everything else more so than just gaming?
Thanks!
Hey, send open back to Brazil. Nice review as always man, thanks!
i bought the openbacks with the gsx 300 thingy. I plugged em in on my soundblaster x ae5 and then o my god! These things are amaaaaaazing! and they go REALLY loud! in the soundcard. With the gsx 300 its a little more tempered but either way, i love em!
nice review dude.
what do you think about epos gsp 500 ((regarding games sound comparison)) compared to these two newer h6pro headsets?
I hope the quiz is on open or closed back xD Great video Techne
Great review man !!!! Should you buy the EPOS H60 pro or the CORSAIR HS80 RGB ? Stuck on which one to get ?? Thanks yeah Michael Thompson no giveaways for us down in Australia
Yes me as well
Don't suppose you'll eventually do a equalizer guide on the Epos headsets eventually? Or if anyone out there has a good suggestion on settings.
I really wish you had swapped the pads and retest the open back to see if that improved the sound but still giving you the soundstage over the closed back
That’s what I did with my GSP 500’s..and they felt/sounded much better..
Dumb question sorry but for the best sound stage for gaming these or the blackshark v2 pro
Man gotta say, love your videos, so much energy! Ended up buying the h6 closed and just wooow, such sound its amazing, and i went from the M50x and i can really tell the diffrence! Just wanna say, keep it up // love from sweden!
Hi, which would you prefer H6pro close or ATH-M50xBT2 Pro for games like squad insurgency hell let loose csgo
@@MightyRaph i would definetly say the H6pro in this case. The m50xbt2 is great but for the games you mentioned the H6pro is definetly gonna give you the sound you want, they truly pack a punch!
@@John-io5wg close or open back??
@@MightyRaph i would go for the closed, they bring some extra bass and depth which i prefer. The open are amazing to but they lack a bit of the oumph in the sound.
@@John-io5wg Thanks for helping!! i think i have decided. If i get without gsx300 will just the motherboard be loud enough? or can i use the razer blackshark v2 dongle?
I have the h6pro open and love it
heyyy... I just bought this H6pro closed.... really awesome..... only downside... its cable a little too short.. just ordered extension cable for it
I do have a quick question, and your opinion would you suggest the hs80 or the h6 pro closed back. The one thing that I have to take into account is that I do have a large head and I did see your review on the hs80 with potential fitting issues with larger heads which I have... I also do not have a dac, but may pick up one depending on which one I buy. @The techne
Is the mic too sensitive? As I have seen this is a concern in other reviews
This headset vs steel series 7X 2022 new version which one do you go with? I need a new headset I don't know whether to go wired or wireless. Coming from my broke blackshark v2 pro love the big sound they give. do I need a dac whats best to go with without breaking the bank?
These sound incredible.
I stinkin love ya man, I really stinkin love my arctis pros too!!
Do the closed backs sound good plugged directly into PC? Without using any external DAC/AMPs?
Great video.
How does the closed back H6Pro compare to Audeze Penrose ? (audio quality)
A versus match would be interesting :-)
Hey man, just dropped a sub because I enjoy your excessive use of stinkin' and the reviews I have had a look at are very informal. Have a question as I am torn between the H6 Pro and the H3 Pro Hybrid's. Which one would you pick? I am due an upgrade from my current Sennheiser Game Zero's which I've had for 3-4 years now and I am looking for something with great audio and mic since I mainly play FPS games like Valorant. The only thing pointing towards the H3 Pro Hybrids is that they are wireless. Other than that I would go with the H6 Pro's any day. Which pair would you pick if you would only use it for your PC?
Arctis pro wired without gamedac or this headset? Which is better?
I really love EPOS especially the H3 Hybrid sadly I don't have enough funds yet to buy one. I hope I get lucky on the Giveaway!
are you doing a review on the ducky one 3 when it comes out?? and im also hooked on forza horizon 5, mexico is great to drive in with many diverse biomes.
I have one question I ordered those headsets I have the Astra 40 headsets are you able to turn down your teammates voice to hear the game sound for your teammate is loud from these headsets ?
Picked these up. They’re incredible. They’re on sale right now in Australia for $100 off at JB Hifi, the price is $159 AUD, $110 USD.
what? bro they on discount rn at JB-HI-FI for 179 AUD. Which version did you get and how do I like it?
I have a question, please help me.... so I have a steelseries arctis pro wireless and they broke. Store were I buy them don't have them anymore, they are out of stock and they have every other steelseries model that I can get.I only return them headphones, the base stayed with me. So my question is can i maybe buy arctis 9 or 7 and pair them with the base, and would i have benefited in any way from such a setup 🤔
Which one should i buy, the open version or the close version?
Is it good if you have a loud pc and a stationary fan within 3 feet. Can it cancel it out properly?
Hello sir are they better than the sennheiser gsp 600 Or did they lose audio quality without The collaboration of sennheiser?
Can you replace the earcups with wicked cushions?
Want to buy a new headset and still cannot decide which one. Have an Xbox and have no big problems with the budget. Almost decided to get the Astro A50. What you suggest ?
The Master Chief Green ones are on sale at Best Buy for $99. After seeing this, Im def gonna go pick them up.
Hey hoss, which would recommend more the steelseries arctis nova 7X or these?
techne do u put on a cap bcoz you like it or any other reason? cz i loved to see u in that first few secs without the cap...u look better like that IMO no pressure just telling my opinion
So is the Epos H3 hybrids really that bad @The Techne?
Hi Techne. I bought the open back version and very unhappy with the sound. Not sure if my pair are giving the right sound. It sounds very hollow. I don’t have any other open backs to compare but I know I enjoy my new HS 65 sound and Blacksharks. The Epps sound way off compared to those. Playing battlefield 2042 sounds horrible. Do you think mine may be defective.
If I have the ATH M50X and the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro for gaming, is it worth buying the Epos H6 Pro?
Vzr mode one or h6 pro’s witch would you pick minus the price?
How is it compared to epos H3 hybrid, which is also $180 but has Bluetooth?
How long is the mic cable?
Should I go for it (I'll use it mainly for gaming) or just stick with a hyperx cloud or a steelseries arctis/ logitech g pro x / razer blackshark v2 ?
it's a stinkin good review 👍
Great videos man, Been going back and forward with getting a new headset for my PS5…got close with the HS80s but haven’t purchased just yet! Best wired/wireless for £100 - £150?
A great option for 150 quid that i have is the steelseries arctis pro
Cloud II Wireless.
@@garethg8226 I second this! Best headset for that price range! And 30 hours of battery? I got mine for 80bucks black Friday deals and haven't looked back.
These have a $199 bundle that comes with a sound card now and wondering if you think that would be worth it?
Just picked up the 'black' open back and it hurts the top of my head.. does it bother you?
Which is better Game One or H6pro? My pc363d is broken, so I need new one.
