MMX300 vs Game Zero

Currently using MMX300's (original version) through GSX1000 for evening gaming.

Looking at Sennheiser Game Zero revised 50ohm impedance headset (I get bored lol). Has anyone experience of both these headsets and can say if the Sennheiser's offer a better sound?

I've steered clear of Sennheiser headsets for a while because every set I've had the wire has been the weakness and they've gone in one ear. Noticed the Game Zero has detachable cable which made them more attractive.

Thank you for your reply.

I kind of suspected as much, retail therapy trying its Jedi mind trick lol.

Thank you for the link, I'll definitely give that a look.

Yes this was part of my conundrum.

Both headsets of comparable abilities and pedigree but I did wonder if Sennheiser's headset might be better attuned to the GSX1000 as you say.

I agree any perceived improvement isn't likely to be worth the outlay but then again I'm the kind of idiot that bought Dali speakers to use on my PC

Hmm, very true. Infact I may just look into that as it's a good way to satisfy my curiosity without risk

Ok, so I bought a set of Sennheiser Game Zero's.

First impressions are musically they sound quieter or have a narrower sound stage than the MMX300's. However, this seems to be intentional to prioritise voice as positional audio seems better and more prominent. Guess I'll be using these for gaming and the MMX300's for music.
