Product Information

Sennheiser and its GSP 670 first test in the wireless version was generally successful. These headphones retain the advantages of the excellent GSP 500 and 600, with good sound reproduction (although a little less controlled) and above all an extremely high-performance microphone. The first two models to come out, the GSP 600 and GSP 500, have recently been joined by a more affordable version (GSP 300), then by a wireless model, the GSP 670, which we are testing today.

This makes the GSP 670 the ideal solution for gamers who don't want to compromise, but still want to enjoy all the flexibility of wireless gaming headsets. The first, contrary to what one might think, is not used to turn on the headphones, but to know the battery level at any time and to force pairing in Bluetooth. The headphones are actually powered up using the large volume potentiometer: you have to increase the volume to turn it on and turn it down to the maximum to turn it off (position 0 turns it off, a very slight “notch” signaling this threshold). One being Asus and its ROG / Strix line which tend to have garishly over the top angular designs full of RGB lighting that make them look more like a prop from a Predator movie than a pair of headphones. The other being SteelSeries, which tends to make wonderfully discrete headsets that look a lot like regular headphones.

I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them. I’ve reviewed more than a thousand different consumer electronics products including headphones, speakers, TVs, and every major game system and VR headset of the last decade. I’m an ISF-certified TV calibrator and a THX-certified home theater professional, and I’m here to help you understand 4K, HDR, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and even 8K (and to reassure you that you don’t need to worry about 8K at all for at least a few more years). The mic is another stand out feature and one of the biggest differentiators between the GSP 670 and Arctis Pro. The Arctis Pro sounds great, but like most SteelSeries headsets its mic was a little weak, and had a tendency to distort. The GSP 670’s noise cancelling mic is blissfully clear by comparison, and one of the best I’ve tested on a gaming headset. Even during heated, loud, online matches my team reported being able to hear me loud and clear, making it a great option for competitive gamers. The GSP 670 did not hold any surprises for us in terms of comfort. The sensations provided are in fact similar to those of the GSP 600. The headset is easy to handle and easily finds its place on the head, despite its size. Its wide and soft ear cups encompass the pavilions well and the pressure points are correctly distributed. The GSP 670 does not include any analog wired input. It will therefore be necessary to be satisfied with the wireless or wired connection via USB. What’s more, the manufacturer has decided to keep the good old micro-USB connector rather than USB-C.

The new Sennheiser GSP 670 uses a self-developed low-latency connection and features Sennheiser’s renowned wearing comfort and premium audio performance.This result is satisfactory, but still remains a bit low compared to the respective 24 and 30 hours delivered by the RIG 800 and the HyperX Cloud Flight.

The Sennheiser GSP 670 is the result of years of development and is not only our first wireless headset, but also the best wireless headset for gamers to date. It combines all the strengths for which Sennheiser is well-known all over the world: maximum wearing comfort, audio performance of the highest level, and clever features that you couldn't do without," says Andreas Jessen, Director of Product Management Gaming at Sennheiser Communications A/S. The headband is relatively flexible and supports twists well, while the plastic used seems relatively dense. The brand has made the effort to choose rather light materials; nevertheless the size of the headset makes it quite heavy (400 g).When it comes to sound quality, you’ll struggle to find a more balanced wireless gaming headset than the Sennheiser GSP 670. Bluetooth integration is also of little interest in a configuration with a dual proprietary wireless/Bluetooth connection, because there is no way to switch manually and easily from one to the other, and even then less to mix the signals. Only a call on the device connected via Bluetooth will force the switch. Once done, it is not possible to easily return to the signal coming from the USB transmitter. In our case, we had to manually disconnect the Bluetooth source or turn the headphones off/on. London, June 2019 – If you want to enjoy wireless technology while gaming an unnoticeable latency is key. Sennheiser introduces the GSP 670, Sennheiser's first wireless gaming headset. The GSP 670 gives gamers significantly more freedom of movement than wired models. The audio specialist has integrated a proprietary low-latency connection that guarantees a reliable and stable transmission with near-zero delay. In addition, the GSP 670 offers Sennheiser’s renowned wearing comfort and premium audio performance. Sennheiser announces an autonomy that can vary from 16 to 20 hours depending on the connection mode (Bluetooth or owner). In practice, we never managed to exceed 18 hours of use with a full charge only via the proprietary wireless connection, and 15 hours with the double connection with Bluetooth.
