Pros & Cons
Pros
The sound quality is what you'd expect from good headphones. The bass isn't ultra strong like a lot of other gaming headsets but it has just enough. The included 4' cable is just a tad short. I have an msi z390 pro carbon mobo, and it sounds amazing!
Sennheiser zero is a great gaming headset for the price. For minimalist gamers who want a great headset, this is definitely for you. One caveat is the wire which became quite stiff in some areas due to the wire being twisted over time. I highly encour... Read More
The boom mic is adjustable so it’s easy to get the down position just right. I highly recommend this set if you are into serious gaming and want a clear mic other gamers will appreciate.
Thin profile makes it easy to throw in a backpack without creating ubsightly bulge. My ears get sweaty when the room is hot. The memory foam ear pads have a good seal around my ears.
Cons
Headset has poor sound quality and mic has very little gain. Astro mix amp would’ve been able to power the headphones up just fine. If you have a good sound card or amp/dac i'm sure they'll work for you, but i think it's rediculous to require an addit... Read More
This headset is very underwhelming in person. It's only good for singling out footsteps in a fps. The only recourse is to sit perfectly still or hold the cable.
For 2 tin cans on a string? Not worth it. It's unfortunate because i ended up paying more for these ones.
Highlights
Quality
Mic quality is awesome and the noise cancellation on the mic works very nicely.
Love the overall build quality and sound quality.
The ear pads also have a high clamping force and there are red marks around my ears for a few hours after use.
Beyond how much clamping is involved, i think that because the headband is so thin, it exxagerates how much pressure is exerted.
Price
If you can snag these for anything 50 and under they are a steal of a deal bc they come with both wires for your pc and console.
You can have headphones that sit comfortably on your head, but have unreliable circuitry and crappy sound, and cost easily 3-4 ... Read More
Competitiveness
I have switched to a boom mic only because i'm streaming live, and it keeps the mic out of my face.
I tried a couple different brands that were built specifically for professional meetings but they sucked.
I don't have a lot of experience with headphones, i don't have anything to compare these to.
People have said these work better with an amp, but at the same time, i've had cheaper headphones, no amp, that sounded better,... Read More

As the title says the headband leaves a mark on my head and squishes down my hair well into the next day

The sound is great but because of the tightness of the headphone i dont enjoy using it

Also probably because of the closed back there is some sort of weird sucking void feeling that i get in my ears and i feel like my ears are being assaulted even though i have the same volume setting as an open ear version with the hd580

Its nice that the outside noise is low and the sound quality is great but overall i dont enjoy wearing the headphones and wish i had my money back to spend on another pair
