POWERFUL BEAUTY

The SteelSeries Siberia v2 headset is the successor to SteelSeries Siberia Full-size headset, which revolutionized several features in the headset industry. The Siberia v2 features a beautiful design combined with functionality and performance, all in one headset.


Mute 

NOISE REDUCTION

The earcups feature a noise reducing foam, which helps you to focus on the important audio or voice communication, and not being disturbed or interrupted by outside noise.

QUALITY DRIVER UNITS

It’s one thing to have a beautiful exterior, but it’s what’s inside that makes these one of the best quality headsets on the market. A 50mm driver unit with crystal clear sound in high, low, and mid-range ensures quality output for multiple uses.


Pull-out Microphone 

RETRACTABLE MICROPHONE

The Siberia v2 features a retractable microphone that can be hidden in the left earcup, which means you can use it when you need it, but don’t have to flash it in public if you don’t want to.

KEEPING IT REAL, OR RATHER, VACUUM METALIZED

Don’t try to melt down the gold and sell it. The gold rings on the SteelSeries Siberia v2 Black & Gold Edition headsets are created by using a process called vacuum metallization which helps to achieve the gold, shiny-like finish of the rings seen on both the right and left earcup. SteelSeries is one of the first company’s in the gaming industry to use this process in peripheral color creation. Check out the black & gold edition in the photo gallery below!


Volume 

VOLUME CONTROL

The integrated volume controller on the cord offers an option to handle sound volume manually. This feature is especially useful when you are using your Siberia v2 with other devices and don’t have swift access to setting volume levels in your software.

    Good review.

    There are so many gaming headsets to chose from that it makes it very difficult to know which one is the best. Truth is once you have purchased one gaming headset then the next generation of headset comes out which supercedes the one that you have bought.

    For the time being, I will keep exploring the possibilities.
