The GSP 600 marks a very successful entry in our competition. It offers everything you’d expect from a closed-back wired gaming headset: a robust and discreet design, great ease of use, comfortable fit, incredibly effective isolation, very clean and clear sound pickup. As well as ‘accurate, balanced and above all immersive sound reproduction. However, its small clamping effect and light weight can be a letdown, especially if you have a large head or are looking for a headset that can be forgotten. Then we recommend you to take a look at HyperX Cloud Alpha which is also much cheaper.

Despite a few minor flaws, the GSP 500 delivers a very solid overall performance. Comfortable (except for an obvious clip effect), equipped with a microphone of quite remarkable quality, it also benefits from a very immersive sound reproduction, thanks to a particularly high and precise location. However, the latter is mainly expressed in games and movies. For listening to music, the GSP 500 is significantly less comfortable. So, this is one of the best headphones though. Gaming available, this relative lack of versatility has to be taken into account before any purchase decision is made, especially at its much higher launch price.
