Customers often highlight the exceptional sound quality, encompassing impressive bass and clear audio detail, as a major pro. Comfort is another frequently praised aspect, although some users found the fit to be a bit snug or the headset too small. While the included GameDAC and its sound customization options receive positive feedback, a shorter-than-ideal cable length and higher price point are recurring criticisms.

So it was definitely a little bit overwhelming to open, without having owned that type of headset before, but once you get it down, it's really worth it. The gain on the headset has almost no lag, which is really nice. The cord length was a bit annoying, but I can't say I was expecting much more. It has a lot of great features, all of which work pretty well.

This headphone set was purchased for use with a Sony PS4. It was very easy to integrate and has been working for over a year without any issues. The sound is very high quality.

It's a good headset for sure but if you don't want long cables and don't really know how to set up an equalizer id recommend just using a wireless one. the quality will be the same just the depth of sound will change a bit.

I tried these out for a week but just couldn’t get use to the sound. The highs were very loud and clear but no matter what I tried the bass was lacking. The complete sound just wasn’t full enough for me. I wound up returning and going with the A40’s and am happy now. The Arctis DAC has very nice features and easy to use, I like all the options. Just not a full enough sound for me.

I had trouble installing them and now they make a weird noise. There was an echo and took time to fix it. Sound quality is great there’s just a lot to it.

Not only are these headphones designed to meet your gaming needs but are also quality built. The headphones also provide high definition sound. I have to say I didn't expect to see the quality of sound and built from these headphones that I'm experiencing.

The gamedac did not mix properly with my PC. Many people on the steelseries forums seemed to have the same issue. Good headset and great quality if it works though.

YOU NEED AN AUDIO OPTIC PORT OR IT WILL NOT WORK BUT YOU CAN GET AN ADAPTOR! Probably the best headphones you can get for gaming or everyday use. Sound is absolutely amazing when using audio optic cables. Hands down the best headphones I’ve ever had.

Great headphones for gaming. Mic really does sound good my discord friends were impressed. Sound is top notch but i haven't tried really really expensive headphones with an amp to compare. I've had these for a while and they are still great

I have many headsets but this is by far my favorite. Good build. Kinda expensive but sounds amazing. The game dac contributes to the sound quality. I hear everything in COD before my teammates do!
