Steelseries Headset X9

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Good headset, I use both this and the SteelSeries Artis 3 wired and find them similar

Best headset I have ever owned and I literally tried a bunch different brands like turtle beach , astros, steelseries. Ps great headset for big heads

to start, I've never cared one way or another about the mic on my headsets so I don't really have any input on it besides everybody in my groups says my voice is very clear. As far as the rest of the headset goes, 10/10 as far as I'm concerned. For a bit of background, I have previously or currently own Bose QC 35 ll, Sony WH1000XM3, Steelseries Arctis 7, and Logitech G933. I find the G Pro X to be much more more comfortable than both the Steelseries and G933 and almost as comfortable as the non gaming headsets I listed. I have worn them for 6 hours at a time though and feel no discomfort which is amazing. They personally fit me very well (6'1 with an average head/ear size) and the leather ear cups have never gotten too warm. The fact that you can plug them in via aux or usb-A is also very nice since some computers can be finicky. The in-line mic is also an amazing convenience that you rarely see. I normally use the dial on my keyboard. Lastly, I can't not say enough not only how well this headset sounds but how amazing the surround sound is! I thought the G933 and Arctis 7 were good but MY GOD is the surround sound crisp. I play a handful of games but I play Destiny 2 on the daily when I can and gunshots from the enemy have never been so clear to my ears. I truly believe it is helping me whip around to the correct position of the enemies faster and more accurately. Although looks are up to personal opinion, I love the all black with a bit of silver/metal look. It gives it a very professional feel and the entire headset also has a very sturdy feel to it. After using these for two weeks now, I would have happily spent $200 $250. Hope this helps:)

I bought this for my Steelseries Apex Pro TKL. It fits quite well despite being designed for the Roccat Vulcan TKL.

Used EGW mount for Novak dovetail, slight filing required to fit X9. Burris FF fit perfectly on EGW mount. Sighted in within 12 rounds and proceeded to shoot tighter groups than I ever have experienced with iron sights.

I mainly use the Crucial 4TB X9 USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 External SSD for post-production. Its compact and lightweight design makes it ideal for shipping to my editor, even overseas, while keeping costs within budget.

I purchased the CAR-2AUD case to carry gear ancillary to my mobile recording business. This includes spare, compact recorders and I/O interfaces, modems, batteries and miscellaneous data cables. The case is roomy (17"x9"x9"), with semi-rigid walls. It can be stacked with other gear in the car and on a cart. It comes with one lateral partition, but I added two others, unused from other cases, for better separation. There is only limited protection from the elements, so a tarp cover on the cart is useful. It lacks the large front pocket of other CAR bags, which makes it more compact and less likely overstuffed. The quality of materials and construction is very high, as usual, and the zippers are smooth and durable. I've been using Porta-Brace cases for audio and video for over 15 years.

The tiny X9 Pro is very fast and remains cold during multiple GBs of photo file transfer. exFAT format for Mac and PC. Sturdy aluminum with rubber base. I find the included cable appropriate and convenient, certainly not a negative. Fast shipping as always.

I've had the crucial X6- 4TB for 2 and a half years now with no problems. I use it to store my 230,000 picture Photos library, my 23,000 Lightroom catalog and missl. photos. Usually, it stays at home on my desk, but I've taken it out on trips. It's getting filled up lately, and the Crucial X9 was on sale, so I ordered one, came the next day. I (optionally) reformatted it for my Mac and loaded up about 1.5 TB of Lightroom and missl. It loaded very quickly, very impressive. (Backing it up to one of my HDs took hours, this took minutes.) Now, with 8TB's of fast SSD storage, I am not thinking about running out of room so soon. Of course, I'm very cautious about my lifetime collection of photos, and soon I will open up more space on the X6 by eliminating the superceded and duplicate LR catalog that I transferred to the X9. I have about 10 HDs for backup, from 4 to 14 TB's. I wish they were all SSD's. Both Crucial SSD's serve as my main Photo Libraries.(Mac SSD internal storage is outrageous.)  I would say the X9 is noticibly faster than the X6 and I really don't notice a difference operating from an external SSD. I just wish my iMac had more USB-C ports for more newer external drives. I recommend the Crucial, definitely over WD and on a par, if not better than Samsung T7. Maybe a little less money too.

This is my first time working with a digital microphone. The first thing I did was test it versus my iPhone 14 Pro Max and my SteelSeries Pro headset. This blew them both out of the water.   I used it as a system with the iPhone, then also as just a receiver hooked up to an Osmo Action 4.  Post-production using Lumafision on the iPad was a breeze as well. I was able toi easily isolate sounds.
