It definitely achieves these things, making it well worth the $199.95 Sennheiser is asking for it. Of course, it goes without saying that this a headset for someone who games online a lot. As TheGamer takes on more product reviews, I've documented my personal part in this initiative. Mainly, my search for a gaming headset that doubles as everyday earphones. My mindset, as both a former New Yorker and current LA resident, is to conserve. Even the smallest thing, like a bulky pair of headphones, can take up unwanted desk space. Although I do have a , I still dabbled in a and a . The GSP 370 is the opposite of those. This is a top-tier gaming headset that dives fully into the role. THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY The biggest draw of the GSP 370 is that it's wireless. It connects with a little dongle that you plug into your PC, Mac, or 's USB port (sorry Xbox owners). No bluetooth. This is honesty better, in my opinion. The headset instantly connected to the dongle right out of the box. It took about a second. There's no lag in the connection, no hassle in setup.

I'm just not a fan of having to keep a bunch of software on my computer to control my basic accessories, as . That said, I've also been a console gamer most of my life. So maybe this is something PC gamers are already very used to. For the record, I was also able to just plug the headset in and adjust the volume to my liking before I even downloaded the software, so it might not be necessary unless you're a streamer or pro gamer. via: Sennheiser The Sennheiser GSP 370 is what you'd expect from a top-tier gaming headset. The earpads cover your ears, shutting out distractions and delivering booming sound. The battery is fast-charging and long lasting, allowing you to sit as far away from your gaming device as you'd like. If you're the type that likes creating exact settings for your headset, you can do that with the software. If you're basic like me, you can plug and play. I'd recommend these for the latter, as they're clearly made with performance in mind. Sennheiser provided TheGamer with a unit for this review. The GSP 370 is available now,
