I went down the rabbit hole of IEMs with a separate microphone.
In the end I found the whole setup annoying and back with a Logitech g pro x headset. Honestly sounds just as good as decent IEMs I had and the wireless life is so much better.
And if you will pick wireless, don't follow my mistakes dont charge them when you sleep and never use a phone charger, I killed my G Pro X in 10 months because of that (battery doesn't charge).
If your Arctis 7 is hurting your jaw, clamp force/up geometry is probably the issue more than just size.
You may want to look at Logitech G Pro X Wireless, HyperX Cloud III Wireless, or even the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro since they tend to fit a bit differently.
If comfort is your #1 priority, I’d probably avoid anything known for heavier clamp.
Personally i used to use a Logitech G pro x wireless however i struggled hearing foostep noises. and Spirit always was so unfair to go against (because i am also hard of hearing on my right ear) so it was a miserable time to go against
however ever since i upgraded to the Razer Blackshark V2 pro i feel like i can hear footsteps way more clear than what i used to be able to hear. also the Spirit i can finally hear which direction she is phasing. i still struggle against her but now its not a death sentence each time i go against her
Had Pro X Wired, decided i got tired of switching them between my Gaming Desktop PC and Laptop, so got the wireless version for Desktop, and gonna use wired version with Laptop.
So far so good, sounds great in games to me, music sounds great, then again i'm not too picky of a person. been using Logitech headsets for years now
Honestly reddit hates everything. I've learned sometimes you gotta just do it and see for yourself.
I've had these for a few years now and I love them.
Admittedly they hurt the shit out of my ears and the sound quality was pretty bad out of the box. But I bought some third party earcups and found a equalizer that makes them sound good and I've had no issues whatsoever since then.
I also don't use surround sound either tbh, idk who would. The DTS sounds HORRENDOUS.
Funny enough I got some steel series arctis something or others that I've wanted for YEARS. Returned them two days later and apologized to my Pro X Wireless for trying to replace it.
Sometimes I think people just take it out of the box and use it, and that's their impression. Which I guess is fair, because it should just work right? but, idk. Gotta change a couple things sometimes.
