In this part of the video, the speaker introduces a new gaming headset, the Sennheiser GSP 300, which is priced at $99. This is a notable shift from Sennheiser’s typically high-priced gear. The key compromises for this budget-friendly option include a non-removable 2.5-meter cable that splits into green and pink with an included combo audio adapter for consoles and smartphones.
The design is slightly more visually complex than previous models, while maintaining a lightweight plastic frame that is highly flexible and size adjustable without creaking. The headset features a double-wide headband with nice padding, solid size adjustment steps, and a comfortable clamping force. One of its standout features is excellent acoustic isolation, thanks to its leather-like material.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the padding, sound isolation, and design of the GSP 300 headset. The padding is detailed and angled to fit the ears better, providing excellent sound isolation even at low volumes, making it perfect for competitive gaming. The ear cups have a slightly different shape compared to the Game One headset, which helps create a better seal. The volume wheel on the right side with slight resistance is praised for its feeling compared to other volume wheels.
However, the microphone, although clear and detailed with noise cancellation features, isn’t flexible and has lower volume pickup compared to the Game One headset. The speaker provides samples comparing the GSP 300 and Game One microphones, noting that while the GSP 300 requires boosting when plugged into a motherboard, it still offers good clarity and sound signature without the poor quality common in other headsets of the same price range.

In this segment of the video, the reviewer discusses the sound signature and overall performance of a pair of gaming headphones. The high-end clarity is praised for being pleasant and detailed without being piercing, while the bass is slightly boosted yet well-controlled, adding body without overpowering other frequencies. The midrange is somewhat reserved, providing a slightly expanded soundstage, though it’s limited by the closed-back design. The headphones excel in both bass tightness and clarity, making them ideal for gaming. At a price of $99, they offer excellent comfort, a high-quality microphone, though there’s some cable noise if the cable is pulled. A notable mention is that the headset’s seal can be disrupted if the user moves their face excessively, affecting audio isolation. The volume wheel has been upgraded, and the microphone, while clear, may need volume boosting. Despite being pricier than some competitors, the reviewer awards the headset for its well-rounded performance and invites viewers to share their opinions on the design.
