SteelSeries Arctis 3 Cabling Headset - BlackEvery gaming headset has been using the wrong microphone. Until now, nobody ever went back to the beginning and challenged the status quo. All Arctis models feature a bidirectional ClearCast microphone. This re-engineered noise-canceling mic delivers incredibly clear voice communication, focusing on the userâs speech while acoustically eliminating virtually all background noise. ClearCast is setting a bar in gaming microphones, against which all future headsets will be compared.
