Quality has always been a mainstay for their products from mice and keyboards to headsets and controllers targeting the mid to high end marketplace. Steelseries, many of us have known this company for years, many reviews have passed through here with high praise. Giving my ears something new it’s time for a quick music shop before hitting up this review.
