SteelSeries 4H.......2007-12-17
This is the first over the ear gaming headset I've used.
I haven't used this thing for 3 days yet and I LOVE IT! It is lightweight, great for FPS games like Counter-strike and Counter-strike: Source, and the price is great. On the original site this is set for a price of $70 US. I thought that was too much, and I found it on Amazon for $40 + $6 shipping. On their website they recommend this headset for FPS games, it works; I can actually hear footsteps in-game from farther away, this gives you an advantage in-game.
The cushioning on the side is very soft and lightweight, and the outside feels sturdy. The top cushioning is OK it isn't that soft, but you don't really feel it after you get used to it. You have to get used to the sound at first then you'll enjoy it.
As the other reviewer said this headset is not that great for music, it's OK, but the higher frequencies make the music sound different, but I still use it for music. The retractable microphone is a great idea. It stays out of the way when you don't need it, and you can also adjust it.
The difference between this headset and the Steelseries 5H v2 (the more better one) is the overall feel of the build, and that 5H v2 dismantles into 3 pieces for easy and safe transfer for LAN gamers.
So if these apply to you:
-Great for FPS games
-Soft cushioning
-Retractable mic
-Cheaper than the 5H v2 BUT the SAME EXACT SOUND QUALITY
Then this is your headset, especially for the great price!
One of the best I've ever worn.......2007-10-23
I heartily recommend this headset. After doing a ton of research online, this had the best reviews that I could see for an OVER-the-ear headset with microphone (there aren't that many out there). I originally went to Target to try to find this (Target is listed as a retailer on the manufacturer's website) but they didn't have it. So, I bought the only other one that fit the bill, the Altec-Lansing AHS 515 Altec Lansing AHS515 Stereo closed ear-cup headset . This one was okay, and I could have lived with it I guess, but it was heavy and made my head sweat. I decided to order the SteelSeries 4H off Amazon, and while I waited for it to arrive I tried out the Altec Lansings.
I just got the SteelSeries set today, and I'm so glad I took a chance! They are MUCH more comfortable than the AL's, and the sound is crisper and seems to provide better localization in-game. But mostly what I appreciate is the lightness and compactness. They are as small as they could possibly be and still cover the ears, and the microphone that tucks into the left cup is a great idea. I only need the mike once in a while, and the AL's mike was always getting in the way, but Steel really thought this one out and provided the best compromise between functionality and getting out of my face.
The only other headset I've ever worn that is MORE comfortable than this is my friend's Bose set Bose® around-ear headphones, for personal and portable listening -- and they cost 3 times as much and don't have a microphone.
I am a bit unhappy with one thing: listening to music or other digitized sounds. Steel designed in extra response in the mid-to-high frequency range, and that works great in games (those frequencies are where you hear positioning cues, so it gives you a better feeling of immersion). However, those same frequencies feel a bit over-emphasized for listening to music or movies. Compressed audio doesn't sound that great in the high frequencies, and these headphones really dramatize that crunchy digital effect. (If Amazon had half-stars, I would have given this 4.5 because of this audio response design).
All in all, though, I'm sure glad I didn't settle for the Altec-Lansings. I'm very happy with the SteelSeries. If you choose this set, you'll be glad you did.
Oh, and I also noticed I felt less isolated from my surroundings when wearing these. They don't block out every sound from around you and make you feel like your in a dead space. On the other hand, when you're listening to something, you definitely aren't distracted by outside noise. I actually felt less claustrophobic wearing these headphones than with all the other over-the-ears phones I've worn.

Can you say....."Stunning!".......2006-12-28
Well I just got a pair of OMD-15's yesterday, the day after Christmas 2006 and Santa Didn't let me down! I've been living with my Current Infinity Kappa 600's for the last 6 or so years, and their still my standard for the time being, but these Drop Dead Gorgeous Black Beauties just might keep the Kappa's in the Closet for awhile!
Now I'm a pretty seasoned middle income Audiophile and I've only had these for a day now, and I know the manual says your supposed to 'Break' them in for at least 100 hours before you do any critical "optimising" or critical listening, yeah whatever. If a speaker sounds crappy out of the box, it's going to sound crappy after 100 hours, but after initial placement going along with Mirage's recomendations, (6 feet apart, 3 feet from both side walls) I popped in Johnny A's 'Get Inside' and the sound that poured out of these things, even at moderate levels to start out with, not only matched the detail of the Kappa's but the 'liquidity' of the midrange shocked me!!
It's still going to take some getting used to looking at 5&1/2" woofers and hearing what's actually coming out of these rather slender speakers, but I'm going to be running them behind a pair of powered 10" subwoofers (if I can get them to properly 'mate', if not, I'll have to pack em up and send them back to Crutchfield, which are GREAT people to deal with!) so overpowering the small woofers shouldn't be an issue. But that being said, the low end reproduction, while it won't cave in your chest, it is very impressive for a design of this size! Very clean extension on the low end!! I still wish Mirage could have used 7" bass drivers and they still would have had room on the front baffle. For $2500.00/Pr. I keep thinking there should be more.... more of what, I don't know. The sound of these baby's tell me, 'there's your $2500', but The Kappa's only cost me $1600.00 for the pair and although their a front firing design, they sound every bit 'high end', plus their hand made real wood cabinet is a work of art. But so Is the OMD-15's!.....
When I got the boxes and saw on them 'Made In China' I was honestly bummed! (Plus this is the second pair of Mirages I've auditioned and in both instances the cheap styrofoam (the old kind that breaks into all those small bits that stick to everything and are a BITCH to clean) that their using as braces were broken to pieces even though the boxes were only mildly dented. There are many other styrofoam type packing materials they could use instead that wouldn't have this problem. But again, for a speaker that goes for $1250, it gave me a negative impression.
But then when I took off the protective layer around the speaker, Good Lord!!!!! Stunning, Piano Gloss Black beauties and I must say that the actual speaker build seems to be very very solid and high quality. So time will tell. But right now I'm Loving them, God their Gorgeous and they sound close to Reference. Are they worth the $? I'll post an update in a week or so when I'll have made my mind up as to whether they have a permanent home or if they go back....But in any event, Mirage has a come out with a very Impressive compact mini tower speaker that out of the box, sounds Damned impressive!!!
