    • Comfortable fit and great sound
    • For a game like battlefield 1, where sound is important to immersion, I don't enjoy playing as much with these.
    • : This is a pretty nice set of over-the-ear headphones, with good sound.
    • Overall they are comfortable, seem solidly built, and have decent sound.
    • Other than the base the sound is fine... but an explosion in a videgame for example sounds terrible... and music sounds so bad... just don't get these.. not worth your time.
    • They slid off your head really easy, but the sound is good.
    • The surround sound is a bit delayed when watching hulu or netflix and listening to it through the xbonex controller
    • The sound is great
    • Sound quality is great, they are comfortable, microphone sounds clear and natural and noises in games do come in from different "directions".One thing I found really
    • The sound is pretty good, better than I expected given the product price.
    • The mic does have to be pretty close to your mouth for the best sound though.
    • The sound is good, but not perfect
    • The virtual 7.1 sounds amazing
    • That said, the sound doesn't carry extremely well through cloth, like a beanie if you live in the Northern tip of Idaho during winter, further limiting the bass
    • While sound could be better, I really like the way the sound comes through on the microphone
    • Comfortable, good sounding, very good microphone, value-priced

    • Good sound
    • The sound is really good
    • If you want headphones those are excellent, the sounds is amazing

    • the sound is phenomenal.
    • Mic sounded terrible in discordUpgrade the driversThe instructions are terrible
    • Replaceable cords and extreme comfort, paired with very good sound make for a very attractive headset.
    • The sound isn't quite as crisp for listening to music if you are a music aficionado, but if your primary need is gaming this will fit your needs.
    • Over all a nice headset that looks pretty cool and has sound that works well.
    • Now all the sounds are muddled and I have a very expensive paper weight that I can't even return.
    • Specifically, bass performance is lacking out of the box, making the headphones sound tinny and rather cheap
    • At times it feels a bit cheap sounding with not quite the dynamic range of a more expensive headset
    • I had to install a EQ and boost the overall gains up 3-4dB and adjust the range to get a decent sound out of it in FPS games.7.1
    • I’m no audiophile, but to my ears these have superior sound, solid (passive) noise cancellation and great comfort
    • AvoidThe sound is fine, there's a terrible microphone echo if your settings aren't set to filter out quiet sounds, which if you talk quietly is a huge problem
    • the build quality feels great, the sound quality is amazing and isn't flat and has good bass for gaming, good directional sounds, and doesn't feel like it's hurting my head
    • The sound in these is far superior and with the easy disconnect
    • The sound and microphone is mediocre at best and a cheaper Turtle Beach Headset sounds 10x better
    • Good sound but comes with bloated "driver for everything" software similar to the terrible razer synapse program.
    • Good sound
    • This means wearing headphones most of the time since I like the sound turned up and don't want to annoy my GF with continual gunfire, screams, explosions and so on
    • My mic sounds great with it retracted, but you can extend it for late nights when the missus is
    • That is my only complaint, the sound should be louder!
    • At full volume there starts to be some muddy sounds, esp in the mid to high range.

    • Ok, so the headphones are AMAZING, great quality, good sound, etc
    • Long lasting, great sound...
    • These do sound amazing for any use, tested a movie with alot of good sound efffects, sounds very good.

    • Mic is pretty solid sounds better if you put those fuzzy black things on there
    • Tons of battery life, good sound, etc
    • Great sound
    • While the sound is fine with the Arctis, I can still hear someone talking and the TV being used in the same room.- I wish the velcro adjustments on the band went further up, I have a small head and could probably use the band to be more snug
    • The sound is incredibly clear, I barely notice them on my head, the mic can be hidden, and most of all they look AMAZING!

    • BEST HEADPHONES EVER!!!!!The crystal clear sound from the headset makes it feel as if I am immersed in the game itself with no static in the background, not to mention the pristine microphone that doesn't destroy my teammates ears with white noise or any other obnoxious/distracting sounds
    • Loud sound
    • The SteelSeries Arctis 3 headset has great sound, is very comfortable, and has a solid construction.
    • The sound is impeccable and the features make it super accommodating - retractable mic, on-ear mute, and perfect comfort (I love the suspension headband on the
    • Very nice sound, long cord for the split connection, short cord for singular jack.
    • The surround sound is great, and the bass can't be beat for the price
    • Good sound, comfortable, but not for big heads.
    • The sound is fantastic
    • Good sound quality, SteelSeries really did a good job on their software to enhance spacial sound, but analog will never sound as accurate as usb with 7.1
    • Light and comfortable headphones with decent sound and a less-decent microphone.
    • So, I plugged it in, downloaded the software and tried it first by playing Destiny 2 because it has beautiful sounds and music.

    • Isolates the sound fairly well without imprisoning your ears in a painful vacuum

    • The sound itself is good, although it is a bit quiet.
    • The mic has good quality sound, I can hear enemies rushing in on me when playing fps like CS:GO and PUBG
    • However, if you only need sound, the Arctis does have good sound, medium bass (as opposed to the head pounding effects of some headsets), clarity and depth
    • If you want great sound both incoming and outgoing, comfort, ease of use and all at a more than fair price, this is a no-brainer
