SteelSound 5H v2 USB is an optimized version of the original SteelSound 5H USB headset. The new headset features improved microphone quality, a longer microphone cord, bigger (and more comfortable) ear cushions, additional frame pressure and numerous other technical design improvements.
SteelSound 5H v2 USB includes a USB soundcard - visit this page to read about the SteelSound 5H v2 (without a soundcard).
Custom-engineered soundscape designed specifically to enhance performance and immersion in gaming. This headset was developed and optimized for in-game sound frequencies, which makes in-game sounds like footsteps, alerts and gunfire especially clear. You will be able to hear and pinpoint the location of your opponents, often before they hear you.
Full-size headphones gently fit around the ears and reduce background noise, while providing maximum wearing comfort.
The USB soundcard ensures a consistent sound experience, no matter what computer system it's plugged into. Dedicated gamers will especially benefit from the USB soundcard, as it allows them to experience the exact same sound as they normally play with, even when playing at tournaments or at LAN-centers. Just bring your SteelSound 5H v2 USB with you - and you're set.
Bringing the headset with you has never been easier or safer. The SteelSound 5H v2 USB can be easily dismantled into 3 separate parts, which makes transportation a breeze. The pieces will easily fit into a bag or a carrying case.
SteelSound 5H v2 USB also features a pull-out microphone system. The retractable microphone is practically invisible when not in use. The microphone cord is covered in high quality transparent plastic to ensure long-lasting durability. Tech Reviews

5 of 5 Good sound and comfort 4/6/2007
from Athens, GA
My last pair of headphones would become painful to wear after just a few minuets. These completely fit around the ear and barely if at all touch the ear. They are VERY comfortable and I have worn them for several hours at a time while gaming without them bothering my ears.
They also offer very good sound performance. I was very pleasantly surprised at how even bass sounds good in these. I listen to music with these headphones as well.

4 of 5 quality headset 2/14/2007
from tunkhannock PA
the headset itself is well made, extremely comfy, never know its on your head, sound quality is good in game, but it lacks any "punch" in any music files, but thats not why i bought it.
only negative i have are the mic pics up, well everything, and its about half an inch to small for my taste.
and the usb soundcard sounded terrible, and droped my fps in css from 60-90 to 20-40.
i cant recomend the usb, other than for the rebate thats being offered currently.

5 of 5 Fantastic Headset 12/30/2006
from seattle, wa
great sound, and absolutely do not throw away the driver disk. The included drivers truly do enhance the sound to a virtual 7.1 setting. Sound feel around the ear section, and the extension USB cord is much appreciated.

5 of 5 amazing sound! 12/1/2006
from blacksburg, va
This is my first higher end headset/earphone purchase, and WOW, great sound, very comfortable too! All kinds of options with the USB sound card for EQ and various effects. Haven't tried out the mic yet, but it's retractable, and very easy to adjust, so I'm sure it'll be great as well. I think I'll try out other Steelsound products to see if they're all this well thought out.

5 of 5 Portable Sound 11/9/2006
from Albany, OR
I am a techno-junkie who has 3 or more computers under the desk. The SteelSound USB headset permits me to listen to music from any front usb port and the headset is easy move between computers. No more standing on my head to change speaker output plugs.
