Customer Reviews


4 out of 5 stars Pretty stellar headset, with one problem.
Arc

I got this headset to replace a cheap Plantronics Gamecom headset that broke because it was made of cheap plastic. Since it works for PC also, and it's $30 cheaper than the regular ones, I bought the PS3-labeled ones.The first thing to say about these are that they are VERY comfortable. Just as I expected. With a cheap $10 headset, your ears will hurt, but with these, you get comfort. There is no need for resizing as there is a retractable strap that "conforms" to your head.As for sound quality, also very stellar. Definitely better than the iPod earbuds I was using as a backup after my old headset broke, haha. Music sounds fantastic, I get a crisp sound even when blaring metal at maximum volume. (Probably not good for my ears... hmm...) For games it's a definite upgrade. A game like BF3 sounds very phenomenal.The mic is retractable and bendable, doesn't get in the way. For the sound quality, I'd say "decent." It sounds good when actively I'm talking but it does pick up background noise. It DOES pick up much less background noise then my old headset, but there's only so much you can cancel out without a little fuzzy thing on the end. I just took the fuzzy thing from my 360 mic and it fits fine on that, works like a charm. But, most games use push-to-talk anyway, so it shouldn't be a problem.Also, the headset comes with an RCA audio converter... thing... should you choose to use it for your console. Also a 2.5mm cord to use for 360, and a USB in-line volume control.Now, to talk about my main problem with the headset - the cord length. It is rather short, and I have to plug it into the front panel of my computer instead of the back. Even then, I don't have freedom to move in my seat - I can barely tilt my head right.Read more ›

5 out of 5 stars Didn't know what I was missing til I got this headset...
ThisThatNEverything

My gaming world just improved tremendously. I absolutely love this gaming headset. I had no idea what I was missing until I started using it. I use it for the PS3 and the sound effects are incredible.I play multiplayer shooting games online and this headset helps out immensely. I can hear people when they are close to me. I can hear people climbing ladders or opening doors from quite a far distance. Grenades and gunfire sound so realistic.I normally just use an ordinary (one-ear) Bluetooth headset and I've never really had a problem with it but switching to this was absolutely worth it. It makes a world of difference. People sound much clearer to me and people tell me I sound really good as well.I love the fact that you can manually adjust the game and voice volumes separately. This is a very useful feature and the mute button is handy as well. I'm so glad that a mic is built into the headset as well and with it being retractable, that's a nice feature as well. The headset itself is pretty comfortable as well. I would've liked a bit of adjust-ability to make it a bit looser but even without that it's still manageable for several hours at a time.The only feature that hasn't done anything for me is the "LiveMix". I've tried all 4 setting and I don't hear a difference. There are supposed to be 4 different options: Off, Low which reduces the game sound by 5db when your teammates are talking, Medium which reduce the game sound by 15db and High which reduces the games sound by 25db. This technology is supposed to help you control how much of the game sound you want to hear balanced over the voice communication.Read more ›

5 out of 5 stars SteelSeries Siberia v2
Teacher Jeanne

Having used my reliable Sony MDR-V600s for years and years, I was somewhat reluctant to try anything else. Having tried the Siberia v2 now for every game from Call of Duty to Dead Space, I have to say my Sony headphones no longer cut it.The Siberia's best feature is a built-in microphone. This microphone made my voice sound a lot clearer and sharper when using voice chat or playing voice-commanded games such as EndWar. It worked far better than the bluetooth headset I was using. Better yet is the ability to position the microphone away from your mouth if necessary. Being retractable was another plus. One less thing to keep track of.These headphones offer separate volume controls for both the game and the voice chat, so it is easy to balance the two in order to hear both. Fortunately the Siberia does not lack for sound quality. Explosions and other deep bass effects are conveyed without drowning out other sounds. The treble is crisp without being too sharp. This is a welcome effect when playing first-person shooters, where there is often a concentration of both.Overall, I was really impressed with the comfort and quality of the Siberia v2. Offering both a quality microphone and excellent sound reproduction has made these headphones a must have whenever I play.

5 out of 5 stars Great quality at an affordable price!

A competitive gamer will have the advantage for total focus and quick responcewith this just released 2011 gaming headset from SteelSeries/Sony.This is an excellent choice for high quality at a reasonable price.This headset is compatible with; PlayStation 3 and PSN chat service -- Xbox 360-- Mac -- and personel computers.This professional gaming gear has awesome sound with independent voice and audio controlsthat nicely support multi-platform gamers with versatility.There are four levels of SteelSeries LiveMix on all the platforms.That function helps provide better control of the game and chat volumes and improves the audio balance.The levels range from:Off which is an unaltered in-game and voice sound.Low which is a game sound reduced by 5db.Medium which is reduced by 15 db.High which is reduced by 25 db.The Siberia v2 is a lightweight suspension over-the-head stylethat we found stays comfortable even through hours of play.This full-size head-set has super soft leather earcups that feel like kid-skin leather.The set has 50 mm driver speaker units that provide excellent sound.On the left is a pull-out, retractable unidirectional (bends where you need it to be) microphone.The headset is mostly made of heavy plastic but has some metal parts in key places for added durability.The over-the-head suspension is metal strips covered with rubber tubing.Under that is a soft padded floating layer that is against the top of the head.The outer speaker screens are a strong metal mess for protection.All jacks have gold coating for optimal contact and there-fore the best delivery possible.Read more ›
