I have a pair of these, very comfortable for long gaming sessions, good mic clarity. Highly recommend.

How is the build quality? Does it look/feel like it'll last for at least 3 years?

Natus Vincere = Na'vi from DOTA if anyone is curious

yes, these are one of the best gaming headsets or simply just headsets in general

these (siberia v2) are among the top5 most comfortable headsets i have ever used... up there with the $200 audio technica A900 sets thanks to the light weight and suspension cable.

audio quality is about par for a $50 gaming headset... nothing amazing but not bad either...

if you are not some high end audiophile and just want a solid comfortable headset for gaming and light music/movies, this is great for the price

if you want high end sound and gaming, look at audio technica AD700 or sennheiser HD555 or similar...

I gave these to a relative as a gift and I regret it because prior to gifting I had tried them on and they were one of the most comfortable headphones I had ever owned.

One if not the best headset for the money. Uber comfy and sounds just fine, no amp needed. Mic is clear as well.

I have these, not this special edition though. I have an average sized head and they are a little snug for my liking. They will greatly increase the severity of a headache if I've already got one/am getting one. I should also mention I usually play in one and a half to two hour intervals and at most twice a day.

The mic is pretty sensitive and everyone will hear my breathing over xbox live, if I move it so that they can't hear my breathing then they won't hear my voice. I usually have to talk quietly given that I play late and don't want to disturb anyone. I've had to take a foam peice from the regular xbox mic to put over this because it doesn't have anything to cut ambient/wind noise, it's just a raw mic.

I like it overall, just a couple of quick tiffs. For reference http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/7...ng-headset

I hate headsets, would always go for headphones+mic.

But I love NaVi and Dota...

Wish the sale was for a white one

My girlfriend and I video conference from home every day and need to wear a headset. We often work up to 11 or 12 hours a day using a headset. We experimented with many different gaming headsets since they tend to offer more comfort and quality. Once we settled on the SteelSeries Siberia V2's, there was no more experimenting. These things are like a cloud on your head. In the past, I would be dying to rip my headset off after a couple of hours -- with these, I feel no discomfort at all, even after many hours of use. The top part looks a little goofy because of the unique design, but man, they are comfortable for a lot of use. As for durability, they are made out of plastic -- they aren't made for World War III -- but we use ours for 60-70 hours each week and in the past two years, we've only needed to replace one pair I think. I imagine they would last 3 years with more average use. And we travel a lot -- so they get tossed around in our carry-on bags on planes a lot. Being able to push the mic in is a nice feature -- you know that part is never going to break. At this price, I wouldn't hesitate if you're in the market for a comfortable headset. I'm not a gamer, so I can't speak to their gaming qualities - but I can say that they sound great and feel great. Did I mention it's like having a cloud on your head? I keep a spare brand new set just for emergencies -- in case one of them does break or get lost, I have an extra one brand new in the box. That's how much we like this set.

For comparison, we tried the Logitech G35's, the Trittor AxPC Pro's, and the expensive Sennheiser headset (can't remember the model - it's was usually about $180). This set is by far the most comfortable. I liked the Tritton's, but after breaking my third set in 6 months while just taking them off my head, I decided that they had to go. The hard plastic broke way too easily -- these are much more flexible.

One thing to be careful about -- this set looks legit, but in the past, I got some of these from 1SaleADay that actually turned out to be a cheaper PS3 version of the V2's. So if you search past deals and find a slightly cheaper price, it was probably that cheaper set.
