On top of that, the microphone is good too and I took the Siberia home to test the mic out via Team Fortress 2, where it performed perfectly. The cable is bendy and malleable and the mic itself is perfectly responsive.
However, no matter how much I love it I have to admit that I did have problems with it. I found myself switching between the Siberia neckset and the SteelSeries 5H v2 headset, which I recently re-discovered and fell in love with. The 5H v2s use a similar ear-cup design and microphone, but have a more conventional headstrap. ItÂ’s just a shame that they donÂ’t look as cool.
The Siberia neckset is a great little device in some ways and fantastic in others, but its weak point is that the core of the design actually ends up giving us a bit of a headache. If youÂ’ve got a high tolerance for pain or the right shaped head for the Siberia to grip to then you might find that the Siberia is just what youÂ’re looking for and theyÂ’re also worth bearing in mind if youÂ’re more concerned with the look than anything else. If not, then you might want to look at what else is available."
