About this deal

It works. It just works. Never have mis-feeds or alibi's. The only time I have trouble is with badly produced ammo. Otherwise, it just about eats everything and functions all of the time. If you have been hardcore gaming with your GSP 500, GSP 550 GSP 600 and GSP 670 headphones, then at some point those ear pads are going to fall apart. Give your Sennheiser GSP 500, GSP 550, GSP 600 or GSP 670 headphones many more gameplay hours with these Accessory House replacement ear pads.

Lastly, the EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500 headset is 220 mm in length, 100 mm in Width, and 240 mm in Height. Hands-on with the EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500Avoid this item at all costs, it's not the German engineered quality you are looking for and there are much better options out there.

EPOS|SENNHEISER did an excellent job of making the headset fit for their consumers. They’re going to improve it as they make more gaming headsets. eSports-Certified Equipment

Even at maximum open-ness the adjuster at the top of the headset leaves the fit feeling rather tight against the sides of my head, in fact the adjustment levers don't seem to really make any perceptible difference at all. That said it's only slightly uncomfortable and hopefully will loosen up over time, and at least it is pressing on my skull and not my ears directly thanks to the cushy earpads. It's not an ear torture nightmare like a lot more expensive "super comfortable" headphones I've had recommended to me (Steelseries Arctis 7). Most minimalist people might find it annoying, but the EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500’s build is bulky. This is still a good trade-off, considering the build quality is durable. Now, let’s move on to the next section of our EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500 review, the specifications. Specifications Now that we’re done with the design section of the headset let’s move on to the key features. Key Features of the EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500

Some history: I've been using Sennheiser's GAME ONE headsets since mid-2015. The audio quality is pretty much exactly what I want out of a headset, with a really good microphone (quality-wise) to boot. However, the GAME ONE has several downsides: creaky plastic / cheap build quality, cheap volume pot (knob) that eventually wears out (static, imbalanced audio, or both), 50 ohm impedance (onboard audio chipsets can only sometimes drive this), a mic that often requires a +10dB boost, and a high price tag. I've gone through four (4) GAME ONE headsets in 5 years due to the above reasons. Put another way: I definitely make use of the 2-year warranty. The GSP 500 follows the same styling cues as its big brother the GSP 600 series. The thing is massive with huge comfy ear cups that swallow your ears whole. The air traffic controller vibe is strong here with a chunky headband with its unique slide-to-fit mechanism. The ear cups connect to the headband with an intimidating metallic hinge better suited to a Caterpillar earth mover. This 2-axis hinge allows the cups to easily contort to different head sizes and shapes. Since the clamping force isn’t too tight, you can wear this for a long period. While this sits in your ear, it doesn’t feel heavy. Having this headset feels like it’s just floating on your ears.The mic is as good as it gets for gaming headphones. No issues there. The flip up to mute the mic is handy. I’ve been shooting a GSP Expert for a couple years now. Hands down the most reliable 22 I’ve ever owned. If that reliability is carried to the new GSP 500 it’s got to be worth consideration. Let’s take a good view of the front side first. The product lineup and product model is indicated on top-left. In the middle, you’ll see a sample picture of how the headset looks. On the bottom-left, some audio key features are displayed. Now let’s talk about its build design and the premium functions in this section of our EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500 review. This is the part of our EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500 review where we’re going to try the product. We’ll also share our thoughts and opinions about it.

While it isn’t ideal for eSports, the ear cup design fits your ears perfectly and puts a balance between comfort and functionality. If you’re at home and it’s a summer season, this headset is going to help you. A Robust and Sturdy Build The EPOS|SENNHEISER GSP 500 gives a lot of immersive feeling and it really does make you feel like you’re inside the game.Whatever you decide though, it’s clear – EPOS | SENNHEISER have got you covered in the gaming headset market. In more ways than one. A simple handheld control means you can customise your massage experience with reverse rotation and soothing heat to maximise your relaxation and minimise hassle. It doesn't seem to set off my tinnitus as much traditional headphones, that's the main reason I went for this type so I'm glad for that. For durability - they pretty much look like new. They have hit the floor countless times falling off the table and so far no issues. The ear cups are still holding up. They are cloth which is my own preference for keeping the ears cooler. The headset also has a low clamping force to provide a great fit and comfort meaning you’ll be able to wear this headset on longer sessions.
