Sennheiser's gaming-focused offering has balanced audio quality with tight bass, meaty mids and airy highs. Mic audio quality is one of the best in gaming headsets with nice clarity and volume along with effective noise cancelling.
The headset has an open back design which allows for a more natural sound stage width.

Pros
Pro Tight and punchy bass, meaty and warm mids as well as clear and airy highs
The GAME ONE has excellent sound quality and offers good balance between the different sound frequencies. The bass is tight and punchy instead of the overpowering and bloated low-end that most gaming headsets have.
Mids have good presence and fullness, so game dialogue should be easily heard. The highs are crisp and airy so a lot of detail can be enjoyed from games, yet the headset is not fatiguing to listen to, even with long gaming sessions.
Cons
Con Large mic has limited adjustment
The mic is quite large and while it can be bent further away from the face, its bulk means that it is still quite visible and can hit your head should you remove or put on the headset. Also, the mic can only swing up and is not removable or retractable, adding to the size of the headset.
