If you're looking for a solid headset for gaming, the Luxury Edition of the SteelSeries Flux is a good investment. It could use some refinement though, especially when it comes to padding under the...

After using the SteelSeries Flux in-ear headset I found them to be a pretty good all round set of headphones. The audio quality was pretty good for most of the tests and the ear buds were actually really comfortable. The in line microphone controls were...

I tested these new versatile on-ear headphones with inline microphone against four different under-$200 on-ear competitors. Each of the two more expensive headsets has slightly superior music playback audio than does Flux, but both of them are far...

Rarely do we find a pair of cans that can do everything that we want it to, and do it well. Audiophiles flood the forums arguing which pair of headphones are the best and probably grimace at the simple mention of a pair of crap quality headphones. We...

The first example of this was Apple's earbuds, the iconic white earphone that shipped with the first iPod in 2001 right up to the introduction of Apple's EarPods in 2012. Though the EarPods were a huge improvement over the original earbuds, they still...

All in all I think the Steelseries Flux In Ear headphones are a pretty good set of earbuds. Most of the complaints I had with them were less about what they are capable of and more about how they failed to live up to the standards that the Pro edition...

All and all I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. I would have never imagined that I would find myself falling in love with a pair of earbuds with a $100+ cost, but I have. The inclusion of the Comply Foam Tips is probably the single biggest pro....
