![]() ![]() ![]() SteelSeries’s GameDAC, which is small and unobtrusive enough to sit on any desk, also doubles up as the control center. And that means that even if you don’t have a Tidal subscription to deliver lossless songs into your ears at the press of a button, you do hear an improvement in sound quality thanks to that wide range.īest of all, that improvement is coming from the GameDAC box, a digital-to-analog converter and amplifier that takes processing duties away from your PC and handles them in the middle of the signal path. Like that Roccat headset, the Arctis Pro + GameDAC features a frequency response range of 10Hz all the way up to 40kHz, way beyond the usual 20-20 we see from non-hi-res cans. But what we’ve seen elsewhere from hi-res headsets, such as Roccat’s Khan Pro AIMO, is that even if you’re not listening to 24-bit sound, and thus capitalizing on the tech, the sound quality is still wonderful. But wait, there is more!! RGB LEDS!! <<< No, not just that, but DTS Headphone:X v2.0, the next step in virtual surround technology.Īs exciting as this all sounds, the Arctis Pro and its premium features have the price tag to match, with the headset alone costing £179, or bundled with the DAC at £250, or the Wireless version at a whopping £300.There’s always room for a little healthy cynicism when these new tech standards present themselves, of course. To compliment the Arctic Pro headset, it is also available bundled with the GameDAC, which is a USB DAC powered by the ESS Sabre 9018, providing up to 96kHz 24bit audio. Moving from the 20Hz - 22kHz featured in the base Arctis models, the Pro series is capable of reproducing audio in the range of 10Hz to 40kHz, earning itself the High-Res Audio Certificate. ![]() Steelseries takes this much further by using premium speaker drivers that have expanded the frequency range by almost double when compared to standard gaming headsets. High grade materials, comfort, great audio, and a good microphone all bundled together. The Arctis headset series represented a maturity in gaming audio much needed by many.
