Sony / PlayStation - Wireless Stereo Headset

I used the original Playstation Pulse for the last couple years and they were awesome for Siege. Felt like I could hear footsteps and knew exactly where they were coming from. They were starting to breakdown a bit and decided it was time for a new pair. Curiosity got to me and I ended up buying the Steelseries Arctis 7p's which I heard were top notch. You have to download software to get these dialed in to be able to hear what you want to hear. Been a bit of a pain in the ass. Kind of wish I would have just gone with the Playstation Pulse Elites. Grass isn't always greener! If anyone else is using the 7p's and has a good EQ setting for Siege, please let me know!

Sony's pulse headsets are excellent.

Ive had mine since launch, not had an issue with it. I wonder what the fail/braking rate is as I often dee people saying the main stem broke for them.

The faux leather on Sony headsets start to peel and reveal the cushion inside after awhile and it looks fugly. I wish they get better faux material. Maybe I need to rub some leather cleaner on them to keep them looking fresh longer, IDK. Thats my only issue with Sony Pulse (im on my 2nd pair because the peeled faux leather looked so bad after 6 months I just threw them away). I use headset 97% of time I game, while the other 3% is when im charging or have company while playing on TV.

Good sound yes but terrible build quality

Love the pulse. No issues thankfully. I’ve had the Sony headset for ps3, 4, and now 5 with no major issues besides peeling.

Yes I will testify to Sony headset build quality. I’ve had the pulse and pulse elite (2 pairs each) elite were SO GOOD as far as audio but keep snapping at the headband. Went up to the H9II’s and it’s a step above with system integrations and audio but I treat them like glass given my history with.

I got the pulse and really happy with them

Yes pulse and pulse elite are official Sony headsets

I like my Pulse hs, sound quality is great, but the constant disconnects are so annoying. Is there any way to improve / fix this that anyone knows of ? Thx 👍

Yes I’ve returned and had no less than 3 Pulse headsets now. I’m resigned to just put up with it now, cause the actual sound quality is great. But yes, I’m out of ideas, I don’t know if the Bluetooth connection is being interfered with by other devices, but I’ve put my Pro in 2 (completely) different locations and it’s still basically just the same.

Ty, I am just trying fiddling about with some router settings, specifically 2.4ghz and 5.0ghz as I heard some folks say that because the dongle uses 2.4 it might be getting interference. So I’m trying to set the router to use 5ghz to see if that helps. Fun lol ! Anyway thanks and GL to you 👍

Great info and advice ty 👍. One thing I haven’t done is raise the damn thing up ! thanks for the link also. Will give this a go.

Yep I think so. 👍. Pro is such a great console but they messed up with the dongle somehow.

Not only that but a broken two in the same spot now and went back to the regular pulse just to be told by my friends I keep breaking up and dropping mid sentence. It’s fucking annoying. I need something new. I enjoyed having my headphones connect to my phone or laptop and my PlayStation though. That was cool while it lasted. I’ll never buy another set of Sony headphones in my life.

Terrible unfortunately. The pulse is built better than the elite but worst tech inside. Constantly being told my mic is cutting out mid sentence. The elite was good but the side parts above the ear cup breaks every single fucking time. Which is why I’m here after my third set of elites and now a third set of pulses. I’m tired of it man. I get that your not having an issue but the elite is made factually worst with design issues and constantly disconnects mid game, forcing you to get up and fiddle with it. It’s actual bullshit. I’m really mad about it. Which is why I’m here on this thread looking for something new.

Official Sony ones, pulse are great. I paid £70 for mine check online maybe eBay
