A HEAD-FILLING SOUNDSTAGE

SENNHEISER GSP 600 $299, sennheiser.com

If bouncy sound is your thing, Sennheiser’s bombastic wired cans should be top of your list. They’re loud, brash and the closedback ear cups absolutely swaddle your ears in audio. They’re lighter than they look, although the strong headband means they quickly start to feel tight no matter how much you’ve adjusted the pressure settings on top. Even the mic is strong; it auto-mutes when you swing it up, seems to cancel noise well and, while it’s not as strong as, say, that of the Arctis Pro, it’s perfectly decent.
