Q: Why is this better than the cheaper option?

A: The DAC capability gives you better audio, however, it is really only applicable for music at this time, not playing games (games don't support Hi-Res audio on the PC or PS4). There are a lot of other features that come with that little table-top controller, but you need to ask yourself if it is worth it to you (equalizer, etc.) - they are handy features right at your fingers and you don't have to ALT-TAB out of your current screen. If you are planning on using this for music also, the DAC is a nice feature and probably worth it, but your standard Artis will do just fine if you are only interested in playing games. I have the DAC version, but also picked it up on a Black Friday sale, so it was worth it. If you plan on using it for the PS4, you will find the cables are WAY too short for playing on your favorite sofa or couch. They really made the cables for a desktop application. If you want to dump all of these issues and not have to worry about cables, get the wireless version - if your budget supports it (very expensive!). If you are using this for the PS4, it's still a good headset, but you'll want to get longer cables (they are not proprietary for the PS4).

Q: How long is the cable to go from the DAC to the headset? Would i be able to purchase a longer one and still get the high quality sound?

A: It is a short cable. You can buy a longer one thru the steelseries.com site. I bought it, and it works perfect!

Q: Is the quality for the mic good? Will my friends think my voice is nice and clear? If not what wireless headset has good mic quality

A: Yeah I use it for my Ps4 and I think its great. It has options so you can hear your own voice and how loud to be able to hear it so you can adjust it. Best headphones I own to date. Hope that helps. You can check my stream if you like on youtube so you can hear what it sounds like. But everyones voice is different.

Q: Will it be ps5 compatible?

A: Sony hasn’t come out with info on the PS5’s audio ports yet but even if it doesn’t have an optical port you can still connect the GameDAC to a TV that has optical. You can also use the gameDAC with a USB only connection to the console but you lose certain features like chat mix.
