This connects the audio to the headset, and it uses a proprietary connector, a UC-E6. I probably won’t use the headset volume much anyways though. Not sure if it was a problem in just my particular model or not, but a little worrying in an 80 dollar US pair of headphones. When I was turning the volume on the headset I did notice a spot of slight grinding about three-quarters of the way up. The volume control is next, a rubberized outer wheel with a microdot texture, very tactile and easy to adjust. From the top, there’s a microphone mute button, easy enough to find, but is sometimes a little difficult to engage. The Steelseries Arctis 3 left speaker has all the action happening. Steelseries Arctis 3 are really comfortable It’s an interesting concept, though because it’s interior, it doesn’t have a large impact on changing the style- I would have liked to see a cover or wrap for the outer headband, now that would be cool.īetween the ear pads and the headband, I have to say that In my years of using different headphones for exercise, recreation and especially for DJing, mobile and studio use, these are the one of the most comfortable I’ve ever worn. You can buy different styles to swap out at 15 euros each, about 16 US dollars currently. It’s light, head fitting, and breathable. The foam pads are made with Airweave fabric and are super soft, have a lot of give, and they’re very comfortable going over-ear, great for long gaming sessions.īelow the sturdy black overband is the ski goggle camo-styled adjustable fabric headband. The outside of the cups is covered with a very nice smooth rubber, and fit comfortably over my large head and ears. The pair is sleek, all black with very subtle Steelseries branding at the bottom of the cans.
