Despite its small size, the DAC also houses an optical port and a 3.5-millimeter jack for connecting the headset to a phone and another one with line-out capabilities. There’s also an OLED screen making it easier for users to scroll through the customization menus. Apart from its audio capabilities, it allows users to adjust the audio settings, including the chat and game volumes, and switch the DTS surround sound on and off. Most of the features on the Arctis Pro + GameDAC are controlled using the GameDAC. This headset boasts the same hi-res audio capabilities as the Pro Wireless, but it comes with a small digital-to-analog converter (DAC) instead of a transmitter. Users looking for hi-res audio without a wireless connection might consider the SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC. Users can charge one on the transmitter while they play, and when the headset dies, they can swap the batteries around. Unlike most gaming headsets, the Pro Wireless comes with two swappable batteries. The built-in charger is another impressive feature of the transmitter base station. While this feature might not make much of a difference to gaming, it’s worth it for music lovers in search of the best sound quality possible. Hi-res audio sounds better because it’s not compressed and has a higher sampling rate. Many audio formats, like MP3 and AAC, compromise on sound quality to keep their file size low. It’s also capable of hi-res audio, also known as lossless audio. The transmitter allows users to adjust the sound and equalizer settings without needing software. One of the best features of the Pro Wireless is its transmitter base station. The Pro Wireless can also work as a wired headset with a 3.5-millimeter cable. If users want to use a Bluetooth connection, they don’t need the transmitter and can connect directly to their phones, laptops, and other devices. The 2.4GHz wireless connection provides a more stable connection, but it requires the transmitter to be plugged into the PC via USB. Users can connect to the Pro Wireless through a 2.4GHz wireless connection, Bluetooth, or a wired connection. It has multiple connection options and is capable of hi-res audio through its included transmitter base station. The Arctis Pro Wireless is SteelSeries top-of-the-range wireless headset.
