The Icemat Siberia Headset comes complete with all the necessary accessories needed for installation.
The contents of the package consist of the Icemat Siberia Headset, microphone, volume control and a 3.5mm
to 6.3mm adapter. Out of the box, my initial impressions of the Icemat Siberia Headset were positive.
Using a sleek combination of black and white, the Icemat Siberia Headphone ranks high on the aesthetic
level. Based upon an open ear design, the Siberia has an impedance of 40 ohms. I was pleased to see a
single cord running from the headset with a gauge of approximately 4mm leading to a standard 3.5mm jack.
