The rich and detailed sound that the 7H delivers is powered by 50 mm drivers for a superior soundscape. It’s crucial in gaming that sounds are both clear and recognizable. The sounds of footsteps in an FPS game or a notice in a MMORPG game can be the difference between winning and losing. The soundscape for the 7H was precarious to achieve. In order to be both an awesome headset for gaming as well as a powerful headphone for music, applications and VoIP, the 7H was tested and perfected by gaming professionals and musicians to achieve great sound for all ears.
The uni-directional microphone can be retracted and hidden in the left ear cup. This signature SteelSeries headset feature allows users to operate the headset in any type of environment, whether in your own home or out in public, with out feeling ridiculous with a microphone projecting out of their cans.

We also understand that it’s important to have the option, especially if it means communicating with your team during a tournament. The 7H is also equipped with interchangeable cloth ear cushions that can easily be swapped out for a completely different, hear-through audio experience. Regardless of what type of sound you prefer, both ear cushions surround the outside of your ear, making them comfortable to use.

SK Gaming’s QuakeLive legend, Shane “Rapha” Hendrixson, made use of an initial 7H prototype sample to grab $10,000 and 1st place at the IEM 4 World Championship Finals.

Not really a successor, however rather a revolutionary peripheral, the 7H is still natural step up the ladder from our previous H-line of headsets.

The worlds’ first give-away of SteelSeries 7H was initiated by HLTV and saw an whooping 1000+ entries to win the headset.
