Cool but strange bird
Unpacking this thing is a little scary, what with all the cables and parts. But not all of them are needed, thankfully.
The build quality looks good. The transmitter the size of a deck of cards. However, see below:
Pros:
- Easy setup
- Sounds great, with some isolation from external noise (but also see Cons below)
- Comfortable for hour-long stretches. (I'm wearing glasses.) Probably shouldn't play for much longer than that at a time.
- Interference-free wireless performance, so far
- 30-foot range (but I only need 10 feet or so at most)
- Choice of USB, 3.5 mm, or RCA input
- Disassembles for easy packing (if you do that a lot)
- Retractable mic boom! Very nice.

The Steel series 7xB headset is Excellent excellent excellent. Plus recieved a huge discount off regular price.... Will buy product again very soon.
Disappointed
I bought a pair of these after doing research on other similar wireless gaming headsets. I do not own another pair of headsets to compare these to.
The Good:
-Three Different Sound Qualities
-Sound quality itself was great
-Live Mix which separates your friend's voices from in-game sounds
-Extremely Comfortable, and I have a big head
The Bad:
From 11 feet away with a direct LOS, continually received crackles and pops in my headset. I didn't notice static, just every now and then would have a crackle and pop, sometimes disconnecting the sound for up to three seconds unless I moved my head. I attempted the following:
-Attempted to move the mixer around, away from the wireless router.
-Turned cell phone off
-Turned laptop off
-Turned baby monitor off
-Turned every wireless contraption off
I still continued to receive crackles and pops from what I imagine is the headset losing...
