SteelSeries makes some of the best gaming gear around, and I know because their stuff is littered all over my desk. Right now, you can catch everything from gaming headsets and speakers to mice and keyboards at some of their best prices ever. Here are just a few of my favorites.

First off, there’s the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro wireless headset, marked down by more than $80. This system includes a GameDAC that you can use to pair it with PlayStation consoles, the PC, and other devices and swap between them easily. It also comes with two batteries, so you can charge one in the DAC, while using the other. It’s easy to swap between them so you effectively never run out of charge.

One of my other favorite pieces of SteelSeries gear, the Arena 9 speakers are currently $245 off. This is an excellent desktop audio system. It comes with five surround speakers—two front, two rear, and one center channel—as well as a substantial under-desk subwoofer. The two front speakers also include built-in RGB LEDs so you can augment your battle station’s vibes without buying extra gear. If this system is a bit too much for your tastes, SteelSeries also sells a couple other kits with fewer speakers, which are also on sale right now.

Finally, if you’re in the streaming game—or if you just want to come across a little clear in your Zoom meetings—the Alias Pro microphone kit is a great option (on sale for $125 off). Professional audio gear usually requires learning about specialty equipment like interfaces and pre-amps. This kit provides a simplified interface with a prominent gain knob, headphone mute, and mic mute buttons. The Alias microphone uses an XLR connection, so you can upgrade to a better microphone in the future. Out of the box, this set provides solid audio quality, with plenty of room to grow.
