Same sound quality and both close headsets. Both are bad durability. I have 7H and after playing 3 hours not enjoyable. If you deciding to buy long life headset I recommend you Sennheiser PC 350(close) or PC 330.

same sound quality = yes
both bad durability = no , only 7h are bad.

siberia v2 is longlife headset if you know how to threat it.
2012-07-15 22:05:32
you mean treat it ?
2012-07-15 23:24:47
I have both and I prefer 7H, but I have to admit, Siberia is more beatiful than 7H, but if you want good headsets to play the game itself, I recommend 7H. Your choice.

2012-05-01 01:44:41

Personaly, I think it hasn't but if SS says it...
2012-05-01 01:52:20
i have 7H, and tried a few days my friend's v2, 7H simply has better sound, stats are the same on paper but i guess the components are of superior quality in 7H phones
2012-05-01 05:11:54
+1, I feel the same thing
2012-05-01 12:36:19
i'd like to know where it says that 7H and V-2 has this specifications:

Soundcard
USB: 2.0
Surround sound: Virtual 7.1
Equalizer: 12 channels
Jacks: 2 x 3,5 mm (USB cable included)

Because i'm in steelseries.com and to me the specifications says only:

I actually own 7H, fantastic headphones.
2012-05-01 00:46:50
lol wow. what are you upgrading from? Seriously you don't need to upgrade every year.

I still have my Sennheiser PC 160 SK. Best headphones I have ever bought. Do they even make them anymore...? They are 7+ years old.

I also bought Steelpad 5H VERSION ONE around the same time. They have been sitting in the a drawer because the Sennheiser's crush them on sound and mic quality.
2012-05-01 00:53:44
steelseries headsets (aside from siberia) seem to break within a year or two. it's always the wires or some techical difficulties (this was the experience with me, and i'm the kind that takes good care of my stuff). i don't think the quality is whooping either. if you have the budget for it, try sennheiser pc 350 (closed) or pc 360 (open)
2012-05-01 01:05:07
7h ;p
2012-05-01 01:06:03
Stay away from these "gaming companies" imo. They're all overpriced trash. Go with a company who actually specializes in making audio equipment. Sennheiser, AT, Bose etc.
2012-05-01 01:08:51
THIS!
2012-05-01 02:07:22
agreed

+1! i wish people would realize this. i've had a couple of gaming headsets before i bought my first real headphones. i could never go back to that crappy quality that gives cancer to my ears
2012-05-01 10:34:46
Yes, sennheiser pc360 r amazing
2012-07-15 22:56:20
bose lmao
2012-07-15 23:23:07
v2????? 5h v2 or siberia v2??? be specific
2012-05-01 01:18:17
Siberia
2012-05-01 09:42:35
Sennheiser (better overall, no questions about it) > any V2 > 7H (since it offer pretty much the same sound quality as V2 but, is much more expensive)

2012-07-16 00:41:40
Suggest a headset that doesn't break easily someone please.. I've had 3 5hv2's they all broke within 7 months...

I want a headset that is good for gaming, doesn't have to be perfect aslong as it works good and it doesn't break in atleast 2 years
2012-05-01 11:40:35
Sennheiser PC 320, you should go for that babe
2012-07-15 23:06:52
if you got money buy 7h
2012-05-01 12:44:35
buy V2, they have the same sound and V2 is cheaper
2012-05-01 13:44:56
I choised v2 4 mouths ago, cuz many people wrote that 7h often broken after 2-3 mouths...
p.s. sry for my english, hope you understood that I mean :(
2012-05-01 14:15:14
I prefer the v2 because the 7H is going to be broken in the next 2-3 months!
2012-05-01 14:22:22
7h is good BUT quality is crap after 2weeks micro didnt work anymore and now sounds on right side dissapears sometimes, steelseries is really not good in bringing quality of endurance
2012-05-01 15:20:43
sennheiser pc 320/350


don't buy ss - bullshit

with 2h its nice to listening music not in home. and they are just looking very nice.
There is no such a big difference btw them.
I prefer V2, just coz i listening music in street.
