THE 9H

Although quite light (weighs just 276g) the 9H Gaming Headset looks quite bulky largely because of its large earcups.

Once again we used the Jabra REVO Wireless to showcase the difference in size.

SteelSeries has used the double enclosure system for the earcups to keep unwanted sounds out but that also made them bulkier.

Both the cable port and the noise-cancelling microphone are placed at the base of the left earcup.

The microphone as always is very flexible and although the large tip at the end makes it easier to use some people may prefer the classic style of the Siberia headsets.

For improved comfort (and obviously to fit all ear sizes) the earcups swivel a bit.

SteelSeries has placed their logo just over the earcups and in front of the left/right markings.

The earpads are covered with leather while the interior is covered with orange cloth.

The headpad is covered with cloth too and resembles a lot the one we saw with the new Elite headset.

You can extend the headband on both sides for a total of 7cm (3.5cm on each side) via 11 increments (no visible markings are present however).

The company name is placed on the exterior of the headband.

While both bundled cables are braided the in-line volume controller (also has a microphone mute switch) is placed on the 1.2m long one.

All three 3.5" plugs are gold plated (as expected from such a headset).

You can use the USB soundcard other directly via the special port or via the two 3.5" ports (that also means that you can use the 9H with the special port and attach another headset with the 3.5" ones).
