The Siberia Elites from Steelseries had a lot to live up to. They promised me this was their best sounding headset ever... That's a lot to promise to a 7H lover like me. It turns out I was not disappointed, but I'm also not going to be switching to the Siberia Elites as my daily drivers...

I've been waiting 5 minutes for this!

Just noticed your Intro says cats in it. This pleases me, since I'm a cat and I like cats.

[LinusTech]

How the devil would you have known 5 minutes ago that this was coming???

 

I suppose you also know that my next three videos will be about the Silverstone RVZ01, the Cooler Master HAF Stacker and the Asrock M8....

I saw this first and liked it first. You are welcome @LinusTech

[Tea1337]

Those Siberia's look like they would feel like wearing tempurpedic pillows on your head with speakers.

Overpriced Imo, I would rather get DT770s

[Anagram]

How do these compare to the 7H's? I got the 7H off Linus' recommedation and they were pretty nice. They weren't that comfortable though and the left side of the headset stopped working on me after 2 years.

What other headset's/headphone's have similar sound quality or better that you can recommend around the $200 mark?

There are lots of options for $200 with great sound quality. These sound awesome: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004444OFK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B004444OFK&linkCode=as2&tag=linustechtips-20

Are these basically a steal for that price drop?

[Yasri]

Sense the left ear went out for me in my SteelSeries Siberia v2 in late november(bought June 2012). I have been looking for a new pair. What you all think of these. While I do not want to go crazy and spend a ton more money for ever reducing increase of quality, I am will to spend the money to get a pair that is soild.

The Original price is quite High I believe, but for that price which is not much higher Than the k-701/2 theyre good. And i've Also heard that especially for gaming they are the best of the bunch

[Yasri]

Also looking at these.
Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, 250 ohms

I'm contemplating reporting you for spam

[deadbc77]

I am wearing the Black Version as i type this,and to be honest my Corsair 2000's sound better.

I am speaking about the 7.1 surround sound software. To me Corsair has the better 7.1 sound.

This is strictly from a gaming standpoint as i am not a big audiophile.

.....but i did pay $200.+ for the pretty colors.

[Dylan lol]

did u test the sound with 3.5 or usb? and onboard sound or sound card for 3.5mm?

If the question was directed at me it was strictly usb with their 7.1 surround sound software.
