Testing:
During testing, I found myself quite happy with the sound and performance of the Siberia In:Ear Headset. I'll briefly touch on the mic first. It sounds just great for voice chatting in software like msn, ventrillo or many others. For a headset of this price don't expect a stunning quality mic, but I definitely don't have any complaints with this one!

I was also very pleased with the performance of the headset itself. When compared to the Shure E2C in-ears we reviewed last year, the Icemat Audio Siberia In:Ears had more low-end frequency response leaving the music not so hollow sounding. When testing them with music, games and speech, I was quite impressed with how this in:ear headset sounded for the price!
Conclusion:
Overall, the Icemat Audio Siberia In:Ear headset has proved to be a very worthy competitor in the market of budget priced in-ears. The overall sound performance was excellent and made me think they were worth far more than what they were actually priced at. The included mic is also very good and allows you to easily perform uninterrupted voice conferencing right out of the box! If you're looking for a good performing headset and the cons don't bother you, then you should definetely check out the Siberia In:Ear Headset from Icemat Audio!
