Our Verdict

SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless

EPOS Sennheiser GSP 600

The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless are better gaming headphones than the EPOS Sennheiser GSP 600. The SteelSeries are more stable and you can also use them wirelessly. Their companion software also has a graphic EQ so you can customize its sound. That said, the EPOS have better noise isolation and leakage performances.
