According to our gaming headset expert
The Sennheiser GSP 500 Gaming headset is an open backed gaming headset that combines high quality audio with one of the clearest microphones you can find on a gaming headset. Sennheiser has years of experience with audio and that is reflected in the acoustic experience of the GSP 500. The open design makes sound more spacious and allows the ears to breathe. The headband is adjustable and the contact pressure can also be adjusted to comfort. The microphone is equipped with noise reduction, so your voice blares loudly and clearly with your team through the speakers. Talked out? Fold up the microphone boom and the microphone is immediately muted.

The headset fits comfortably on my head, I always wear a cap to avoid the 'headset hairline', even because of my cap it fits great and does not suffer from a lot of pressure on the head. I just don't think the headset itself is the most beautiful, but it works the best outside of my headsets

I am pleasantly surprised by these headphones. I bought them as a gaming set but now also use them for music (at home) and teleconferencing for work. The headphones give a very good sound, which comes to the fore with music, but is also very cool when gaming. I mostly play CSGO and you follow the footsteps well, even while shooting. I didn't have this with my simple in-ears. I really like the analog way of mic mute and volume. The microphone is muted by flipping up the mic boom. Great in meetings because you don't have to doubt whether you are on mute. The volume on the headphones is also wonderful, the knob is stiff enough not to move by itself but still easy to adjust the volume. The whole headset feels very sturdy (while it only seems to be made of plastic) The biggest advantages of this headset in particular are the open design, which allows for better heat dissipation and that I can use it for music/work/gaming/calling. The biggest downside is that it is a very ugly headset. It seems as if Robocop and Princess Leia had a love baby. My wife thinks I'm escorting aircraft carriers because this huge case is on my head. My opinion; It is therefore really not usable outdoors.
