Icemat Siberia Headset

(Page 1 of 5 )

A few months ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing the Siberia In:Ear headset from Icemat. This in-ear solution had dynamic sound, and was a joy to listen to and use. Today I’ve got my hands on the original Icemat Siberia headset, and I’m quite anxious to see how well they fare.

Yeah, I know I'm doing these reviews backwards.  The Siberia headset was available before the Siberia In:Ear, but what can I say? I'm nothing if not unconventional.  So when Icemat offered to send us the Siberias for a test, I was quick to respond in the positive.  Besides, having been described as an audiophile by many, I love a quality headset.

When the package arrived, the first thing that came to mind was how Leia-esque the headphones were.  These are over-the-ear headphones, and as such have a much higher profile than the Siberia In:Ear headset.  Let's take a quick look at the specs for this headset before opening the box.
