Product Description

Manufacturer Description

The SteelSeries Siberia Full-size Headset was developed in cooperation with professional gamers to ensure that the soundscape, specifications and comfort is suitable for long gaming sessions. But the SteelSeries Siberia Full-size Headset is also designed for multi-functionality. Apart from using the headset for PC-gaming, this product has been designed so gamers can use it with their favorite MP3 player, handheld gaming device or practically any other kind of portable digital device.

And that is why the headset features a separate microphone, so users can enjoy music on the road without having to bring unnecessary gear. The cable length has been optimized for use with MP3 players and similar products, and comes with an additional extra long cable for use with stationary computers.

Wasn't this headset once known as the Icemat Siberia?
Yeah, it was. We launched both SteelSeries and Icemat back in 2001 and decided to consolidate products and branding in 2007. It's still the same award-winning product.

What the difference between this headset and the H-line (5H v2, 4H and 3H) of SteelSeries headsets?
We designed this headset for multi-functionality. Everything from the separate microphone to the cord length on this product was designed so you can use it both for playing games and use it with MP3 players, handheld consoles and such. And, as you might have noticed, the visual design makes a somewhat bigger statement about personality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Headset!, February 27, 2008

Dan L (Pasadena, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: SteelSeries Siberia Full-Size Headset (White) (Personal Computers)

I have gone through a bunch of headsets, Plantronics, Logitechs, and Sennheisers, all of them broke between the period of 6 to 12 months. Recently, my Steelseries 5HV2 broke, (well, the audio on the right ear piece went out). This headset is replacing the 5HV2 I had. I love the styling of this headset, definitely an eye pleaser and unique in its own way. Furthermore, I finally get to hear what bass sound like. All the headsets I used in the past were lacking in the bass department, even the 5HV2; however, this headset takes the crown. This headset is great for playing first person shooters and listening to music. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

The mic quality is good, the mic being stuck on a wire that hangs from your head is bad.

They're reasonably comfy but look horrendously large and ungainly.
