    • A Surprisingly Well-Built Mid-Range Headset
I was in the market for a sub-$100 headset, and of course, there were lots and lots of choices. Overwhelming doesn't begin to cover it. What made Creative stick out was, well, one, I legitimately forgot the company existed, even though I vaguely remember having earbuds from them over a decade ago (they still make headsets, and their legendary PCI-E soundcards by the way). Second, I loved the design of the simple totally-not-flashy SoundblasterX H6 and the rather tasteful amount of RGB on the headset, in the form of circular rings on the cans. I immediately hit the Checkout button. The headset came in and there was absolutely no fuss opening the package. The box is nice but hey, just a box. First impression, the size was a tad intimidating which lent the idea of having weight, but of course my head is a bit on the larger side and I have rather large ears too. Good compromise I thought. Grabbed them, and WOW they weren't actually heavy! Putting on my head was a big surprise too. The clamp force when they envelop your head isn't frustratingly tight at all, maybe even just a tad light, making good on Creative's own claim of a reasonable clamp force. Immediately fell in love with the headset because it fit and they feel great to wear, no exhaustion or fatigue around the ear area for prolonged periods of wear. The mesh on the headband and the ear cups is very comfortable too, not a big fan of leather. Only downside is well, being a mesh, the cans will catch particles and dust, so cleaning them once in a while will be a thing, but hey, the headset is worth taking care of. My room isn't very dust heavy either, and I normally don't eat at my desk, so ehhhh not a big problem for me. Height-adjusting the headset isn't an issue, the metal band inside has grooves so you can evenly level the cans, nor are the adjustments prone to coming undone when you take off the headset or move it around and such. When you set the cans, they stay in place with a reasonable amount of strength. No problems connecting either. The headset comes with a USB connection and a 3.5mm jack. The manual states you can download the software that powers the headset and the necessary drivers through the support page. Had no issues finding. I just want to say though, that the software is *NOT REQUIRED* to use the headset, only if you want to utilize extra features like more granular equalizer settings, the millions of RGB colors and different cycles (without the software running, the headset RGB will default to Red when plugged in via USB), and the software's noise suppression and echo cancellation features for the microphone and such. The headset has three built-in EQ modes with a push of a button on the frontside of the left ear can. Gaming, Movies, and Music. I find the Gaming preset to be very sufficient for everyday use: not too much bass but enough for some oomph and not an excessive amount of Treble. Like it shows on the product's website page, the headset also has a Monitor button to let outside noise into the headphones by magnifying the audio. Cool little feature but I don't use it much. Plugging in with jack is, well, just good I guess. My computer has Dolby Digital Plus included and the headset pairs up nicely it, though I've come to prefer plugging in via USB. Sounds much louder and cleaner for me. The Microphone is connected into the left headphone via gold 3.5mm jack and does a very good job at picking up my voice and isolating unwanted noise. It's a swivel mic too, so you bend it and adjust it however you want, just don't overdo it haha. When I first plugged in the headset with USB, the mic volume was preset to 85%. I thought that was a lot but after using Discord and other things, it's a good setting for everyday use, though everyone will have their preferences and make their own necessary adjustments. The mic mute button is cool too, a good mute-all solution instead of having to go into all your applications running to mute your voice. A little LED will light up red when mic-mute is turned on. Now for all you wondering how well this headset does with the Discord chat application. It works wonderfully, aside from having a slightly annoying bug that has very minimal impact...if you don't use the headset software (which honestly I don't find TOO compelling but to each their own). When you turn on Echo Cancellation (or was it Smart Volume?) in the headset software and also use Discord's own EC and Noise Suppression features, when your friends speak, they'll get terrible echo of their own voice. Buuuut I find that Discord's EC and NS solutions work just fine without the headset software's own. Just be sure to select the Headset and Mic in Discord's Voice and Video settings section instead of the 'default device' selections. Overall, is this headset worth the asking price of $80? Yes, it definitely is, and you won't be disappointed. If you see it with a discount, for the love of all that is holy, jump on this bad boy. ... show more

    • Creative nice
Nice head set,. Very well built. You can't feel them on your head. The software is nice to. They have 40mm drivers in then so they sound nice but they don't have big deep bass it's like just right. The rgb is just added sugar. They are well worth the money.

    • Avoid. Software support is absolute garbage.
I had just recently torn up my Creative Fatality headset from eons past and decided to upgrade. The Creative Sound Blaster H6 boasted some great capabilities, and so far I have enjoyed them immensely... When they work. OVERALL: I am still holding out hope for the headset because of its amazing sound quality, but it will likely take a LOT of work for this to be used as intended. Best I can give it is 3 stars, and that is generous. (See update) Sorry Creative, but this one disappointed me. 1 Month update: Volume wheel is also software dependent. It seems that if there is ANY software / game or otherwise that utilizes the headset in a certain way, (Mind you I have the "exclusive control" settings disabled) , then the headset software takes a back seat and simply acts as speakers. Nearly blew out my eardrums starting new programs because I couldn't lower the volume, let alone mute it via the headset. Having to forcibly rip out the micro usb to turn the sound down is utterly ridiculous. (no keyboard macro / shortcut unfortunately) Oh and the mic issues? Seems I have to restart discord a few times before the mic works. The mute mic button mutes ALL sound, not just the mic. 1 YEAR UPDATE: Mic problems have never been fixed. I have tried so many things that have temporarily fixed it for maybe a week at a time. The headset seems to want to turn off the microphone at the most random of times and it makes it impossible to use effectively. I will never buy this nor its successor headsets again. I had hopes... Pros: Heavy Construction - Sturdy metal and plastic housing with soft cups for the ears make this one of the better made headsets I have owned. The cups themselves come off and seem to be replaceable after some use. Great Cables - Dense, heavyweight wires that do not twist or bend easily. Probably a 6 month cord under insane wear (chair wheels), but with care they might outlast the headset. Clear depth of Sound - 7.1 Surround is available via USB and 3.5 jack. No tinniness and I have not heard the speakers crackle once. Lower notes are accented very well and have a richness to them, while the higher sounds are clear and distinguishable. I have noticed more nuanced and discreet sounds in music that I have listened to for years than ever before. Decently clear Microphone Reliable on 3.5 audio jack Ambient Monitoring - The setting that allows the user to hear their surroundings while the headset it on. Just turn it off if you do not like it. Many people seem to complain about it without realizing it is a togglable feature. Cons: (USB) The software is clean, but utterly garbage. The mic settings actually obscure / muffle your voice and lead to echos. The software seems to have issues sharing use of the headset with other programs, leading to dead mics / audio when changing (alt+tab) between programs and starting programs like Skype / Discord. I have had less issues since I disabled "Sound Blaster Connect 2" completely. (The RGB capabilities were novelty, but I needed a headset) Even when I had the program running, my headset buttons failed to work as expected. Mic mute button mutes all sound through the speakers as well. Ambient Monitoring would get stuck on, but that did not bother me too much. TLDR: Mic stops working after a few minutes. Only works when you reconnect the headset. Software is bugged and doesnt work as intended with communications programs, often feeding sound back into the mic and giving awful reverb. Not worth the hassle. Half tempted to throw it out. ... show more

    • Great Sound, But An Even Better Mic
Review Image by S. Senior
This review is for the Sound BlasterX H6 USB Gaming Headset with 7.1 Virtual Surround Sound. I needed a new headset because my SB Evo Wireless gaming headset broke after much use. I tried the Corsair HS60 Pro. I returned those because the microphone was awful. When I spoke, it sounded like I was congested and the Corsair software has no options to adjust the mic on the HS60 Pro. After researching I saw You Tube reviews for this headset and the mic test each reviewer did was great. There was very little difference if any between the reviewers' studio grade microphones and the microphone on H6. After receiving the headset, I installed the software and tinkered with the software bit and did my own mic test and viola, the mic impressed me. I made a few calls to my son through Discord and he said it sounded like I was standing right next to him. After that I did some gaming and my gamer friends said that I sounded like my old self. It was huge difference from the Corsair HS60 Pro headset and the most interesting part is that the H6 is only MSRP $9.00 USD more than the HS60 Pro. I've read some people say the headband could use more padding, which I agree with, however, for me these are very comfortable and I used them for about 5 hours last night with no discomfort. Also, the earpads are glasses friendly, see included photo. I definitely recommend this headset and I would buy again. ... show more
