ok ok ok,,, so after following Niks distructions , I can confirm there are working exactly as described.. PUBG is a completely different game, first 30 seconds after drop I managed to get away from a guy who had a gun purely on sound. then find him an kill him when I found a gun. the gun sounds are completely different fired my m16 with an earbursting crack, and the sound reverberating around the whole valley... tried in sniper elite4 and all working well there to.

Open Design Headphones
  • Open Headphones are designed to allow some outside noise to mix with the headphones' output.
  • Some listeners prefer the open natural sound (think listening to speakers in a room) rather than the isolated sound of closed headphones.
  • Open headphones may also boost sound clarity depending on the type of music you are listening to.
  • In general, open headphones are more comfortable with lighter pressure on the ear area.
  • Open headphones do allow sound to leak out, therefore people around you may be able to hear what you are listening to.
Closed Design Headphones
  • Closed Headphones are designed to isolate your ears from outside noise.
  • This isolation is useful for DJs, critical listening (ie. music production), and "zoning out".
  • Closed headphones generally provide a heavier bass sound.
  • Commuters who use headphones may prefer closed headphones because outside listeners will not be able to hear your music.

These points are more relevant to music listeneing, but extrapolate for gaming benefits.
 
Just had a go of the 600's via a little HyperX USB soundcard I have and my... oh... my...

5-point review:
  • Loud
  • Quality
  • Noise isolation is great
  • Comfy
  • Robust
Only had the chance to listen to music with them now. Will try them out with some gaming tonight!

For the price they are currently feeling like good value. With the AMP deal they feel like a steal!
 
Bundles are live and in stock again folks! I've had a set of the the 600 and a GSX 1000 sent to a (semi) independent adjudicator @TwsT who should be putting a review up by the end of this month. I'll ask him to post it on this thread and in Sound City.
