I would say without a doubt, the best headset in the world

Being that I have been gaming for over a decade, I have had my fair share of different headsets. I started using the Siberia v2 since it came out and fell in love with it right away. The first time I put it on, it was like ecstasy.

- Price (For Some; - Can Only Be Used With Personal Computers; - Current Availability

After using the Siberia V2 Frost Blue Edition for several days, I could really say that they are the lightest wired headset I have ever used (of the same dimensions); the earcups are not pressing excessively on your head so we can wear them for hours without the need to remove them from time to...

Gaming: The game I tested was COD WaW - both single player and multiplayer.  After putting on these SteelSeries (USB) headphones and loading the game it was like an entirely new game for me.  I immediately felt much more immersed in the game and was much more aware of where the bad guys were.  Every...

Superb comfort; Clear; crisp sound; Amazing but not overpowering bass; More than enough cord length; High quality; retractable mic

Small amount of mic hiss (USB
