Does everything you would expect at this price point. Sound is bright and clear, with a slight bass boost.
Mic performs clear and with good quality.
Clamp force is perfect for me, I can wear these all day.
Unsurprisingly, Sennheiser has a great sound signature. The mic is perfectly serviceable, but I tend to prefer a discrete mic. I had the PC360 for years and upgraded to this headset. If looking for a good headset at a good price, this is a great choice.
Paired with a Schiit Fulla E amp/dac combo.
Sound Quality for both gaming and music - Excellent
I think build quality and comfort both fall into a weird trade off here.
It's super light, almost cheap feeling and all plastic. But seems durable enough with other users having had them for years now.
Clamping force is a little on the tight side, but with the super light weight I don't seem to really "feel" it even after longer sessions.
And I should note that I have larger ears and the cups do fit over my ears completely so I don't have any weird extra pressure or pinching on my ears.
I would 100% recommend. Purchased on sale with a coupon for $110 and I don't really think anything else at that price point can compete right now.
First, this headset is super comfortable. Every time I put it on, it "disappears." It stays on without squeezing my head and I forget I have it on. It sounds better than the other headset I had, though I should also mention I did a direct comparison with the Sennheiser HD280 headphones that cost less, and the HD280s sound better. I might not ever want to compare these with Sennheiser HD600s or I might change my mind on these. The mic is good. My son and I played Halo online (different residences) and he could hear me very well, as long as I had the boom mic positioned correctly.

Microphone pretty much unusable
Have used this headset everytday since december 2021 so for about 2 years now.
Negative :
Microphone was always too low. My friends always have to put me at 200% on Discord and it's barely enough.
But recently it has been degrading rapidly and pretty much doesn't pick up my voice anymore.
Volume control on the heaset mutes the right ear when turned all the way up so I have to put it just before it maxes out. Can't remember exactly when it started doing this.
Sound quality just average in my opinion.
Positive :
Very light weight and comfortable. I can wear it for hours without issue.
Very durable. It has pretty much no sign of wear and tear, even on the ear pads, despite intensive use.
