"simultaneously pairing to my PC and phone to answer phone calls is fantastic."
"I bought them more than for audio quality for versatility, I played switch and pc at that time, and wanted discord while I played so I got this ones that can have dual audio from the dongle and Bluetooth."

"Been running the same headset for years without any issues. ... Embarrassingly enough, I rage-threw my headset at the wall for the first time a week ago. Broke the audio cable to the headset. Ordered a replacement cord for $15 and it still works perfectly."

"only downside is that after a while (2+ hours for me I think) it does get a bit uncomfortable on the ears ... idk why but I think its cuz the ear cups are a bit small."

"it lacks in subbase and highest highs"
"the highs are a bit wonky ... can't pinpoint the issue but there is a little something making the audio a touch weird."
I’ve been gaming on my PS5 with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7P for a few months and it’s been solid.
r/PlaystationPortal • What is the best wireless headset for the ps5. ->I personally use Astro a40s and they work great. A lot of people recommend the steelseries arctis nova 7, so if I were you, I'd go for those if you're able to afford them.
r/Warzone • is the official xbox gaming headset a good headset for Warzone? ->Ah ok ok. Well I wouldn't say it's a bad purchase. I see the nova 7s are on sale here for a similar price which in my opinion sound a little better it's just not as big as a battery so that's also a decent alternative
r/HyperX • is hyperx cloud 3 wireless good? ->Eh. I ended up with the Arctis and not bad. Still miss my Astros but more control and better audio with Arctis. Mic quality on my end is kinda ass and it sometimes disconnects when I first turn the PS5 on.
r/PlaystationPortal • What is the best wireless headset for the ps5. ->I’ve been using the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7P on my PS5 and it’s been the sweet spot for me.
r/PlaystationPortal • What is the best wireless headset for the ps5. ->As someone who owns wireless nova 7’s and wired 7 pros, no fucking way would I spend 600 on these. Sonar GG is arguably one of the worst peripheral softwares on the market and I won’t spend another dollar on steelseries until they develop something better
r/steelseries • Nova Elite = WOW ->SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7. Been running the same headset for years without any issues. If it helps sell ya; Embarrassingly enough, I rage-threw my headset at the wall for the first time a week ago. Broke the audio cable to the headset. Ordered a replacement cord for $15 and it still works perfectly.
r/DayzXbox • What headset would you recommend? ->I use the steelseries arctis nova 7, while it’s not bad…I personally haven’t like it, I had hyperx cloud alpha before…they were ok, the volume was very low for some games, I’d probably try the sennheiser epos pc38x or the beyerdynamic mmx 330 pro for good sound quality
r/PhasmophobiaGame • What kind of headset do you use to play phasmo? ->The Arctis Nova 7 isn't just way better build quality, it also sounds miles better than that shit especially when you load a custom EQ profile using a PC. It also has comfort Max tech which makes the headset feel great.
r/playstation • Well it finally happened. ->I went from gaming headset to a DT770 about 10 years ago, went through all sorts of different headphones, amp stacks and went down the rabbit hole for a bit. A couple years ago I sold my DT1770 and Schiit stack in favor of the Audeze Maxwell. great headset but it has some issues. Not at all as good as the hype wants you to believe.(Music is amazing, gaming is OK, Durability of those drivers is shit, software is even shittier) Started using that at work for music listening and calls instead and got a basic Steel Series Arctis Nova 7 at home. Also decent, especially for the price. Recently I got an audio interface to fuck around with my guitars and amp plugins. And I tried my old DT770s again through that. The sound is so much clearer so I’m back to using studio headphones again. Thinking I’m gonna get the DT700 and throw those old DT770’s back into my drawer, always nice with a backup I guess.
r/pcmasterrace • Another „Gaming Headset“ bites the dust, tired of overpriced/hyped headphones. ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
