The SteelSeries Arena speakers are on sale at Amazon for 28% off. We called them'massively expensive', but now they're even cheaper.
The SteelSeries Arena 9 speakers are a great choice for gamers. They have a great subwoofer and great aesthetics. It's not as good for music and its original cost is ludicrous, but in this deal it's an excellent choice for anyone who wants 5.1 surround sound gaming.
" data-widget-type="deal" data-render-type="editorial">A good set of PC Speakers is my opinion the cherry on top a gaming system, as they help to create the immersion that makes the best gaming sessions. SteelSeries Arena 9's price was one of its main detractors, but it is now a better deal on Amazon for just under $395.
The Arena 9 is an impressive set of speakers. It has a powerful subwoofer, as well as two rear speakers and two front speakers. There's also a control pod that allows you to change the volume, pair Bluetooth devices and more. The RGB front speakers can add a lot of aesthetic value to a room. This subwoofer can go super bassy, which is great for shooters and action games.
This set of speakers is unique because it offers 5.1 surround sound. It has a center unit and two front satellites, as well as two rear satellites. This means that when paired with a game you can feel audio all around you.
As we noted in our SteelSeries arena 9 review, "The amount of detail on offer definitely increases the immersion in any games with serious positional sound atmospherics." Horror fans will also benefit, as there is nothing better than jumping at a creeping undead that you hear scratching the floorboards.
Unfortunately, this 5.1 setting is not as good when it comes music. There is a setting that converts music to a more immersive sound, but it's not as effective as one might think. This, and the cost, are the two main downsides, but the second part is offset by this great reduction. This is a great option if you want to feel every shot in your favorite shooters.
