"Having a great audio front end, it does some great things to the sound. "We’re not going after the bass-heavy gaming approach to sound," Fallon said. It's different than traditional all-bass, all-the-time gaming sound, but easy to get used to. The Arctis Pro has a sweet sound, a little more mid-range than most gaming sets, with crisp highs and almost too-precise bass. You'll swap back and forth and appreciate the solid performance in both arenas. If you use one set of cans to listen to really high-quality music (Tidal, for example, or other high-fidelity services, or your own recordings, or ripped vinyl or CDs) and play games, yes. Most gamers, I suspect, will spend more time listening to the Arctic Pro line with hi-res sound turned off than on. Using the wireless version of the headset, which is limited by the bandwidth of its dual 2.4Ghz/Bluetooth connection? Not hi-res. Hi-res audio comes with some interesting caveats. "You could go buy a nice DAC and hook it up to a gaming environment, but you’d be missing some gaming-focused features," including that chat/gaming sound mix, says SteelSeries audio product manager Brian Fallon.įor even more control while on a PC, the Arctis Pro will use the SteelSeries Engine, which among other things will allow you to tune its classy colored-LED loops on the ear cups to blink in time with your other SteelSeries gear.
