SteelSeries Arctis 5
The SteelSeries Arctis 5 is a great gaming headset, chock-full of useful features, and carefully tuned to sound as accurate as possible instead of just focusing on the bass. Thanks to that, it's great for playing games on a high level and just as good for listening to music, both at home and on the...

Very very good for the price
My main headset is a Turtle Beach Z300 wireless, which was $300 when i bought it last year from Turtle Beach. Its still doing well and sounds very good but I wanted to see what was out there for a backup set and a set that my GF can borrow when she needs it. These are some nice looking cans (lol).
Pros:
- -Excellent sound quality -Mids and highs are emphasized and well done, bass is there but its very crisp and tight, not "loose" as in other headsets
- -Quick visit to the manufacturers website to download the Steel Series Engine 3 software and you can tweak the EQ
Cons:
- -For this price point based on what you're getting
- none

Great product
So not only am I impressed with the headset itself and would highly recommend it, but also, the delivery and condition of both the product and box is perfect. Definitely worth buying if you're either thinking to upgrade or as first time buy in which case it might be your last.

Comfortable for long gaming sessions
A comfortable gaming headset for the price, if you are looking for surround sound spend more money on something with more drivers.
Pros:
- This headset works great for long gaming sessions, the chat mix feature is great to mix game and chat volumes
- Lots of accessories too, replacement cords, different ear muffs and bands can be found online which is nice
Cons:
- The surround sound is mostly a gimmick and I prefer it off

STEELSERIES Arctis 5 7.1 Gaming Headset - Black & Orange
Pros:

- sturdy build and good sound
Cons:
- Main reason for low rating the inside of the ear cup is shallow and the hard material presses against your ears and causes a lot of discomfort

Very comfortable, I use them on my Xbox One
Very comfortable, I use them on my Xbox One. I like that the jack is at 90 degrees. It does require the Xbox One adapter for adjusting the chat and game volume.

Right ear has a loose connection
It's a cool headset with the LEDs but if you have to spend 5 minutes adjusting the cable everyone you use it so that sound comes out the right side then it's quite disappointing

Love it
I have had this headset for more then a year now. I have been not gentle with this thing but it still works. The only thing that I really hate is the adapter that you can plug in to the phone is not easy to replace at all the same thing goes for the cord that you plug into the computer.
