Product Snapshot

Overview

Released in 2019, the Sennheiser GSP 670 is a closed-back wireless gaming headset with a frequency response between 10Hz and 23kHz. It boasts 7.1 surround sound, low latency technology, and a 20-hour battery life through Bluetooth and 16 hours via the USB dongle. 

Like many of the best gaming headsets, it can connect via a USB dongle, USB-to-micro-USB cable, and Bluetooth and has a bidirectional microphone that mutes when you flip it up. It weighs 0.9 lbs and features memory foam earpads, a mesh headband, and pressure sliders to set the clamping force. There are two separate volume controls for game and chat audio, and to customize EQ, you can download the Sennheiser Gaming Suite software.

Consensus

our Verdict

The wireless Sennheiser GSP 670 delivers an immersive gaming experience through accurate directional cues, well-balanced mids, and treble, and power-packed bass. Despite being somewhat heavy, the ear slider ensures optimal weight distribution, and the memory foam earpads and mesh headband enhance overall comfort. 

The attached microphone boasts superb audio quality for clear in-game communication but adds to the headset’s bulkiness. Muting your voice is convenient by simply flipping the microphone upward, and audio and visuals are in sync due to the minimal latency. Connectivity options include a USB dongle, USB-to-micro-USB cable, and Bluetooth.

ReasonS to Buy

  • Punchy and precise audio
    • The Sennheiser GSP 670 is designed for gaming, given its punchy and explosive bass range and distinctly accurate mids and treble that enhance immersion.

    • Its directional imaging is strong enough to aid in tracing your enemy during competitive games, helping you gain a tactical advantage.   

  • Incredibly comfortable design
    • Gaming for extended periods is super comfortable, thanks to its memory foam earpads and lightly padded mesh headband. 

    • Although hefty(0.9 lbs), the ear sliders distribute the weight perfectly, so you don’t feel the heaviness.

  • Clear speech over the microphone
    • While the bass range sounds slightly de-emphasized, the treble is detailed for natural speech, allowing fellow gamers to hear you accurately.

Reason to Avoid

  • Attached mic
    • The non-detachable mic adds bulk, reducing portability.

    The Sennheiser Game One Gaming Headset is an open-back model, while the Sennheiser GSP 670 is closed-back. The Game One is slightly lighter (0.7 lbs) than the GSP 670 (0.9 lbs). However, the latter offers wireless connectivity while the Game One is wired, keeping you tethered to the device. Lastly, both boast comfortable earcups, with the Game One featuring velour material and the GSP 670 offering memory foam.
