If you are a gamer that uses a headset, you know that it has to be high quality in order to be ahead of the game. You want to know which direction enemies are in, and you want it to sound like you are in the game. Today, I will take a look at the SteelSound 5H USB...read a full review

They are nice headphones, certainly appear fancy enough. But my, going on 2 year old Plantronic headphones, are working quite remarkably for $30. My chances of seeing these headphones in a audio store here are slim. Plantronics pretty much owns in terms of choice here, everyone carries them. They are cheap with superior sound.

140$ isn't really all that bad for the USB version. It seems like you are getting a reall awesome product, and it includes the sound card for it...Doesn't get much better than that. Of course..I'm a dj and am used to paying over 100$ for a pair of headphones haha.

Oh no doubt they are good. I'm sure they are. But I have Creative XFi and 5.1 Digital Speakers. It doesn't get much better than that. That with a multi-plug headphone/Aux/Microphone jack. I can get Plantronic headphones and top of the line sound card supported by every game out there for less than the cost of those headphones. For DJ, sure, but I haven't seen a DJ bring his computer to play music.

Yeah you got a good point there with the XFi card. Though, bringing my laptop out to mobile gigs isn't rare at all. Even to raves and such, I usually have my laptop with my Verizon Broadband card plugged in. I think I might pick up this program eventually though so I can stop carrying around 4-5 cases of 70 records.

Pretty awesome technology!

But I would still rather use my Sony or Technics headfones.
