This gave them some flexibility in tuning the response. They feature neodymium magnets, and can produce frequencies from around 10 Hz to 40,000 Hz, which you’ll notice is both well below and well above the thresholds for human hearing. We’ll dig into the GameDAC in a bit, but there’s a lot to like here.īoth the Arctis Pro wired and wireless model both feature the same drivers, which SteelSeries has said are the highest quality drivers they’ve ever used in a gaming headset. SteelSeries has an answer to that problem with the GameDAC, which is a USB DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) and amplifier which has been tuned specifically for the Arctis Pro headset. SteelSeries has recognized that the majority of people use onboard audio, and although a few motherboards do ship with high quality audio components, the majority do not. The Arctis Pro + GameDAC is really the star of the show. We see a lot of accessory announcements, but when SteelSeries briefed us on these two new headset models, there was a lot of interesting technology they were bringing to the table, which is always something to get excited about. The second is the Arctis Pro Wireless headset, which takes many of the features of the wired model, and adds wireless to the mix.

The first is the Arctis Pro + GameDAC, which is the first Hi-Res Certified gaming headset on the market. Today they are launching two new products at the top of their Arctis lineup, and both of them offer some interesting new features. SteelSeries is a well-known manufacturer in the PC accessory space, and have been in the gaming headset market for some time.
