For anyone where it says it's not supported for 7.1, you have to click properties, advanced, and set to 16 bit audio. Once done you can then go and set the 7.1 setting.

This was super helpful! Loving my GSX1200!

Hi Sennheiser. I got my GSX1000 just about a month ago and I just LOVE IT !! I also watched a YT vid review from BadSeed Tech where he reviewed your new GSP500 that just came out last month in Canada. He went on to say that it seems as if the GSP500 openback gaming headset and the GSX1000 were specifically tuned to work in tandem. . . It was as if they were made for each other. WEll, that was all I needed to hear, so I went out and bought a set. All I gotta say is W O W ! ! ! Sennheiser you guys hit this one right outta the PARK with this combo. I'm talking about a grandslam here fellas Keep up the great work over there.

Dude, life saver! I just got my amp and headphones and I thought they sounded like shit. I was started to stress about why did I just spend $500 on these (or more?) but watching your video it was just because the communication device was selected and default. After selecting speakers, dude these sound amazing! Glad I spent the money now

thank you i was shocked in first . but now the sound amazing

Thanks for uploading this. Just picked up a GSP 600 and a GSX 1200. This guide made things much easier than my previous headset.

Hey Guys n gals @sennheisergaming. It's been a few months now and I am continually blown away at the sound I have been getting with my GSX1000. And tonite as I was just browsing your YT channel, I came across this video on how to set up this baby from scratch. I'm always keen on this stuff as I know that sometimes, sometimes you could miss something on the setup. And guess what? I did. The other night I was listening to my Mass Senns HD6xx with my other amp, the Mayflower ARC. When switched back to my GSX, something wasn't right. And when I went into Discord to hook up with my buddies to play some seige, I could hear them, but they could not hear me. I tried restarting, I tried configging discord, I tried everything I could think of. And when I finally got it going, the comms and sound, sounded annoyingly like a whiny tin can. I could def relate to that. I watched the presenter go through the setup tips, and even though I thought I had it set right, well, it wasn't. Seems I did NOT have my "speaker" icon in the "playback" tab set to "default device". As soon as I turned that option back on, . . . night n day with sound. It IMMEDIATELY sounded soooo much better. TYVM :) So excuse me while I get back into another heated set of Battlefield 4 and maybe some Rainbow6 Seige. Sennheiser gaming, don't stop making vids like this. Because no matter how much one may know about something, there's always something you might have overlooked right ?!?!?! Peace out !

thanks ! when i first plugged it in i was taken aback by how it sounded worse than my hyperx mini amp, but it was because it defaults to the wrong component.. I wonder how many people ended up returning this unit because they thought the amp sucked.

Been running the gsx 1000 with the philips fidelio x2s, best gaming audio I ever had. Thanks Sennheiser.

Thank you for your video, I would say that the GSX 1200 Pro that I have is a perfect combo with dolby headphones from win 10, i'm loosing the 96Khz (48 instead, 24 bits) but the sound is way more spatial and accurate with dolby than 2.0 HD on the amplifier. Just in case, for people that might have that option available (need to pay it once for all your "official" windows devices)

Man I would love to own this!

I've been enjoying the 7.1 features of this amp, but I recently tried 24bit 96KHZ (HD 2.0) in BFV and was blown away by the audio quality with my PC38X headset. I think I'm sticking with this new setting!

Thank you for making these videos, I love this clean sounding amp, I just got it today to go with my gsp 600. This helped me understand setting it up alot better. Seems like I can hear every detail even at low volume. I like being able to use my mic as a passthrough with a quick touch. Don't have to remove my headset when someone says something to me in the house. If y'all had some EPOS speakers or monitor sized soundbars in the near future, I'm ready.

ty so much wouldve love a tut on waat the buttons on amp work

You skipped discord setup

Hello, First of all thanks for the great useful review. I would like to get gsx 1200 with either Sennheiser HD 660s or PXC 550 or Momentum 2.0 The question is whether either of these headphones are going to work with/benefit from this unit? I am new to this kind of stuff, but as far as i understand, dac/amp works only with analog connected headphones, and not with USB wireless headsets(like my logitech G933). Also, would my razer leviathan 5.1 soundbar benefit from this unit(connected through 3.5 mm jack)?

Thank you!

how do i turn on the sound card on with out having to unplug and plug it in every time i boot my computer?

I use Sennheiser 323d since 2013 and still works fine. I wonder is it better to buy new headset - gsp 350 or this gsx 1000 and keep my old headset? Grettings

I wonder what the difference is from setting output to headset or stereo audio in the voice app.

The audio test within the settings menu does not play sound when set to 7.1 mode. Is that expected behavior?

Great video, i got the GSX 1000 and normally it sounded like tin cans, i was like wtfff, found this video and fixed that. I got them paired to the Game One headset but compared to the mainboard audio from the Asus Hero 9 i sadly have to say that it's not worth the price so i returned it. The 7.1 feature made games sound way worse for me and it's just not worth it to me.

4:00 - yes... that's me :)

7.1 wont turn on for me, says its not supported by the device and how do i turn on the sidetone? i pressed something on the box and turned it off and cant remember what i pressed xD

so how i make headset with mic work on this,i can either get sound when i pug to headphones input or make my mic work with no sound if i plug in to microphone

Why I need to reconnect my GSX1200 pro every time when I turn on my Laptop?

Is there a manual directory of firmware updates available? The Updater always seems to fail checking for updates or being able to connect to Sennheiser servers.

Someone using Sennheiser GSX 1200 with a MMX 300 on Stereo mode ? How does it run ?

Is it possible, that I switch between speakers and headphones (plugged into the GSX 1200) via a keyboard hotkey? I want to keep the desk clean and put the GSX out of sight.

so i just switched to IEMs from Sennheiser HD598sr and they sound super hollow and like sound is coming from a fish bowl even after I followed this... I rally want to use IEMs now so i am trying everything to fix this to make them comparable. IEMs I purchased were FIIO

So does this just basically make it so a pair of stereo headphones can work with 7.1?

I have GSX 1000. 7.1 system works great however in Call of Duty CW all sounds that come from behind the player are super loud. Is there an option that I am missing?

Is there ever gunna be a version that would work for PS4

If you switch/upgrade from Game Zeroes to GSP 600s, you need to set them up again with the GSX 1000. Or at least if you unplug the mic/headphone cables.

Can I use a USB microphone with a headphones monitoring line with this card instead of a microphone on an headset? Is it possible to hear our own voice in real time with this card ?

So I recently bought the GSX1000 and I recently bough XM4s as a switch to better audio for gaming. I used these headphones in combination with my elgato wave 3 mic. Before introducing the GSX1000 my headphones were working immaculately with my wave 3's (the mic has a 3.5mm jack for audio). I bought the dac for the sole purpose of EQ and controlling volume and audio settings through a dac rather than a virtual software. For some reason my GSX1000 won't recognize the headphones in their app. I can hear everything, but I want to change the EQ of the audio to make it slightly less bassy and open them up a bit. Everytime I use the EPOS gaming suite, nothing is recognized, so I'm just stuck on the settings page and can't do any customization. This is really making the gsx1000 sort of useless, and I paid over $150 for it... can someone please help :(

Hi i have the GSP500 and i bought GSX1000 and when i try to put the 7.1 it says that my device is not compatible and after some researchs i found that the GSP500 isn't 7.1. But in your vid it looks like you have plugged the same headset as me so i don't really understand..

Could I plug in my sennheiser hd 560s into the gsx 1000. Would it work

Hi, im using a usb mic cable, anyway i can control the mic playback?

Another issue with this device is the ultra sensitive mic, the headsets poor sound output, the amp connects to your PC via USB & doesn't use your soundcard is frustrating but as windows sees the amp as one device (default device) with the headset being the default communication device, this means when you toggle from headset to speakers it only switches certain applications sound from headset to speaker. Previous to my PC310 G4ME that has simple simple audio jacks & uses my sound card, but when plugged into a cheap audio switch with my speakers it switches ALL my sound as it should do! ...Overall the cheaper setup gave me less hassle, better headset/mic sound quality (input/output) easy to configure & not limiting my use! Take note Sennheiser, you nerfed this headset by relying on software over hardware.

Would be nice if they made one specifically for PS4

can it connect to wireless gaming headset with dongle?

I'm not able to change the bitrate of the microphone when connected in the GSX 1200

I know this may sound stupid but in your instructions you state to make sure you set the GSX as the default mic on Recording tab. Just FYI that is ONLY if you are using the GSX input for your mic. If you are not using this do not do that step. I'm sure most people know this but just in case I wanted to point this out,

My GSX 1200 is setup and works it just doesnt get as loud as i'd like. It only gets about as loud as the headphones on their own. I love the surround sound i just wish i could get this audio ...you know amplified a bit more than what the stock cans are doing on their own with no amplification, i'm running a set of EPOS H6pro's....I was hoping for a much louder experience...in surround mode it is a bit louder but not by a whole lot. Does anyone have the H6's connected to a GSX 1000 or 1200? Can you comfortably play at max volume 99? 99 still isn't enough for me. Something has to be wrong. i have everything maxed on windows configuration, no other enhancements are enabled. It work fine it simply doesn't amplify loud enough or even much louder than the H6 by its self.
