Does this headset have a metal frame inside unlike its counterpart Tactic3D Alpha? I need to replace my Alpha due to overuse and stress broken frame.

The internal seems to be metal. When I extend mine, the the metal band is visible. I don't know how much of the construction is metal, but it's very sturdy.

No, it's attached inside the headset itself. This is a seamless headset, all items are attached.

I have no idea, but I can tell you the headset broke within one months time. Koss offered a new headset with a $10 shipping and handling charge.

i think its more so just a diablo style headset but its an amazing gaming headset overall its just a siberia v2 headset styled for diablo.

Sure does. It comes with a really impressive amount of accessories (including carrying case and a number of different cable/dongle setups).While I was impressed by the amount of accessories the headset comes with, I'll admit I returned it within a week or purchasing as the really heavy cups, poor weight distribution and a super tight frame made wearing it for more than a few minutes a real pain (literally).

Yes and no. Steelseries claimed it was fixed but sent me an RMA with the same issue. They recently announced a new Siberia Elite headset line (you can find it on their website), which one would assume, has fixed the old Siberia Elite issue, along with better microphones and whatnot. It appears like they might be abandoning the obviously defunct SE and moving on with the newer model. However, that doesn't mean there aren't decent pairs of SE still out there. I'd buy at your own risk.

I bought a set from Best Buy. The part that slides into the headband on the microphone side has broken. I have a big head and many headsets have done this. This was one of the fastest and the wires are messed up. It is a very nice quality sounding headset though and I'd recommend it if you dont have a fat head.

gold plating only counts for durability. as for quality, i've noticed zero difference when using it on my phone or my computer. (steelseries siberia v2 headset)

The AE2's mic and controls are built into the headset itself, you're better off with the standard audio cable - cheaper too.

Sorry, the only thing I know is what I read in the descriptions and reviews... The Alpha is less expensive but has all the same features, apparently the head strap on the Sigma is metal, I guess it won't break as easily? I love my Alpha! It has great noise cancelling sound and my online gamers tell me I am much clearer using it.

This headset doesn't have any functioning buttons. The "Y" between the two ear sets is just that - a split. Unless the version you're looking at is a latter model than mine. Mine doesn't have any functioning buttons.

Yes, I believe it's on the left side of the headset. I wouldn't recommend you this headset unless you get the wireless version for under 50 or if you tend to rage and you're looking for a headset that can be thrown, this thing weights a lot (solid frame) but the cushions are too hard and bad quality, although not everyone will share my opinion unless they are 6"4 with a big head, then this is not the headset for you.

Just to make sure, I bought the headset that has the 2 earpieces with a wire in between, but the picture this is showing. Either way, I store mine in the clear hard plastic box it came in, or the next time I finish a tin of Altoids, one of those boxes.

It's perfect for 360, unfortunately I had to return it 13 days after I got it because it's very sensitive as far as the quality in the product itself. Ear piece broke off hinge. #MadeInChinaSmh. Otherwise I was thoroughly impressed with it.

This headset is not as rigid as some of the other head sets out there. There is some general flexibility, but unless you alter it they make it for larger ears. You can take a heat gun or possibly even a hair dryer and try and reform the plastic, but even with a bit above my ear I don't find any problems with the comfort or functionality of this headset. Though I haven't tried it, you may also be able to pull out the ear piece, cut the tube, and then reinsert the ear piece into the shortened tube. The tube is also fairly universal so you may be able to find a tube for small ears that will work with this. This headset is not as rigid as some of the other head sets out there.

I'm hoping that they've gotten this issue fixed with later shipments. My pair as well as my brother-in-law's pair had the left cup fail after the first day of use. SteelSeries had us fill out an RMA and we got replacements within a week and a half. Neither of us has had any issues in the four months that we've had them and in the end I am very happy with this headset. A lot of options for tweaking them to get your ideal sound

Yes, you can return the headset for a new one, I did, if your purchaser is still under warranty. The problem is that the ear loop attachment detail is weak, and the ear loop will break off rendering the headset useless unless you like to use your hand to hold it against your ear. Mine has broken off twice without any abuse whatsoever. It appears that many other purchasers have had the same misfortune.
