My initial impression compared to the GSP 500, (HD 560S straight out of the box comparison, no break-in), is that the 560S sounds much cleaner. They make my GSP 500 sound muddied. Even more so compared to the Game One. I've only listened to a few music tracks so far with no gaming. But like you...

I'm jealous! Yeah that's why I went ahead and made the purchase. My ears like the Senn-Signature so I'm pretty sure I'm going to dig these for gaming and light music listening. I've been doing the competitive FPS thing since the 90's and with headphones I generally stick to Stereo although...

So they are more open than the GSP 500 but have a slightly reduced mid-bass? Interesting, and thanks for that input. I shall see if my take on them is similar next week when mine arrive. As for all the other info you gave me. I was just looking for a specific comparison. I've read through this...

How does the HD 560S compare to the GSP 500? I've been looking to replace these GSP 500 I have after this third pair seems to have the exact same issue as my previous two. The volume wheel on the right ear cup starts causing audio to cut in and out or become unbalanced, as in one ear louder than...

Hey, no prob! I'm sorry it didn't work out either. And by the way, Sennheiser support is awesome. The most hassle free quick and easy RMA I've ever had to deal with. RMA'd one of my GSP 500 a while back for volume knob issues, (first time ever having to use Sennheiser support and I've owned...

Pretty sure that for the last 3 to 4 years the standard for triple-A titles has been 24 bit. That being said I realize fully that most games aren't triple-a titles. And CSGO in particular is 16 bit 44khz if I'm not mistaken. On another note. Have you ever checked out the programs Equalizer APO...

Hi, glad you like the setup. Nice opinion you have as well. I also have a few AMPs and DACs I use. Not going to start listing them for a measuring contest with you. However, the reason I named Creative and Asus was because of the comparison I was making with Surround sound. And Creative happens...

@volly You should google around about the GSX. There were plenty of threads/reviews/comments last year around the net on the GSX not outputting adequate volume. I'm sure it can be somewhat subjective as some people may have hearing loss and some may be sensitive. From my perspective you should...

I use the GSP 500's for everything now. I love them, great for FPS gaming in general. As far as the GSX 1000 goes. I would pass it up. I dropped some cash on one not too long ago and it is trash. Low quality garbage. The surround effects are not any better than anything else out. I would suggest...

It actually uses the Cirrus Logic CS43131 instead of the Saber used in the AE-5.

Can you elaborate on the "improved drivers over the GAME and G4ME series" statement? I really haven't seen much of anything about the drivers being used and am curious as I've just ordered a GSP 500. I currently own a couple AKG products, K612 and K712 headphones, an old Pioneer SE-A1000 and the...

This is actually my line of thinking. It's still early and Microsoft just rushed it. These are my hopes anyways.

  Do people actually read the posts here or do they just pick out a part after skimming and then reply to that? It's amazing how someone turned my statements of Atmos Headphone having a broken or bad implementation in general into, I only think it's bad because it is in 16bit 48khz. And use...

And the Human eye can only see at 30 frames per second.......    If I can hear a difference then I can hear a difference. If you can't then I guess you just can't. Sugar pill? If it is I don't care to be honest. I just know what I like. That being said, why not take your own advice and add...

I don't know man. That's what I got out of the response they sent me.
