Sennheiser HD 598 SR vs Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum Wireless 7.1 Surround Gaming Headset

The large ear pads feature a velour surface and a soft foam material underneath. The comfort of the headband is also notable. It features a synthetic leather material with a thick foam inside. In combination, these cushioned parts feel like pillows on the head.

These headphones are in a price range that is quite affordable, yet offers sound and build quality that is beyond the standards in its price bracket.

The bass takes a bit of a back seat compared to the other frequencies, yet is still enough to give fullness and punch to the sound. The mids are the star of these headphones' sound signature. They are clear and a little bit forward, which give a lot of extra detail and presence to guitars and vocals. The highs are pretty crisp and clean, and complement the other frequencies really well.

Even for open back headphones, the soundstage that the HD 598 produces is amazing. It is quite wide yet natural at the same time, which makes it feel like you're listening to the artist perform in front of you live. This wide sound stage and great imaging also make these ideal for games and movies, as these can enhance audio immersion.

This makes the headphones quite easy to store, and the cable easy to replace. Also, the attachment mechanism is a twist to lock system which minimizes the chances of the cable getting disconnected while in use.

Thick memory foam is used in the ear pads along with a velour material on the surface which feels great on the skin. These pads are also removable and washable, making them easy to maintain.
The headband also features padding with a reasonable thickness so the top of a user's head will not feel painful when wearing these.

The mic design integrates into the left ear cup very well. If you do decide to stow away the mic and push it up, it will look like the mic is just part of the ear cup instead of being a separate unit.

Explosions can sound really good with the G933 as the bass is quite powerful. You'll be able to experience a lot of rumble and punch from the lower frequencies. Also, the upper mids and the highs are quite boosted. This gives a nice thickness and warmth to the sound.
Voices from game dialogue can be clearly heard, while audio details are clear and also easy to distinguish.

The G933 Artemis is praised for its extremely long wireless range, up to 30 feet indoors and even 40 feet outdoors. Stability is also excellent: the wireless functionality doesn't distort the audio quality at all.

The G933 is quite sturdy and has a rugged exterior, but offers good comfort for users. Build quality is also excellent, with a combination of high quality plastic and metal being used in the headset's construction. Also, the it does not have a lot of creaks or unnecessary flex.

With the surround feature activated, sound direction from their various sources is much more distinct. This can help to heighten immersion.

This headset has adjustable lighting, so you can choose a RGB-color in the software suite of the headset. You can also adjust the equalizer, surround sound settings, and you can allocate shortcuts and macro's to programmable buttons on the left ear cup.
