I really like the Steelseries Arctis Nova 1 set. It's 45 bucks on Amazon right now. [https://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-Arctis-Multi-System-Gaming-Headset/dp/B0B8Q4CR52](https://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-Arctis-Multi-System-Gaming-Headset/dp/B0B8Q4CR52)
r/playstation • What are the best gaming headphones in the $100 or less category? ->Meh, I'm familiar with the brands mentioned in replies. Here's the best by a wide margin: SteelSeries. I picked up the Arctis Nova 1 wired version from Walmart 6 months ago for $49. Man....I can't even explain how much better this is than other headsets I've used. Most comfortable over ear headphones I've EVER worn. Audio quality is like a high end audiophile pair of headphones. Mic is awesome, can hide away, and sounds great. There's a reason why it's won awards for best headset. It simply dominates the competition. It's simply on a different level, whoever you get this for will adore you. If you don't believe me get one from SteelSeries and then your second choice, and keep the one you like best. The difference is comical.
r/buildapc • What is the best wireless gaming headset for a 14 year old for his birthday next week? ->I have been using the steelseries arctis nova 1 headset and they work great. good mic, good sound and very comfy. also has 360 degree sound so good for fps games
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Gaming headphones for 100$ or less? ->Yes. Headset with amazing sound stage for 3d audio is incredibly detailed and immersive. Try a 3d audio game with any set of headphones you might have lying around. (I use an old set of fairly chunky hi-fi headphones). Buying a new headset I concur with other people who said Arctis steelseries with the 40mm "Nova" drivers. I honestly thought they would be a bit rubbish, at least a step down from the previous 50mm in bass. But wow, they're surprisingly good. I have a sort of neckband thing for VR racing, it feels like a HANS device and gives a sort of personal bubble of surround sound. It's a bit of a unique case, but I picked it up cheaply and it makes a huge difference (not isolated, not loud, and not TV speakers).
r/playstation • When you play games. Do you wear a headset? ->Steel Series Arctis Novas are always a solid choice. The band on the headset makes it the most comfortable over others.
r/GirlGamers • Good Gaming Headsets to Buy ->any steelseries headset, preferably arctis nova
r/buildapc • The Best Gaming Headset to Buy Now? ->I've had a great experience with the Arctis Nova until I failed to maintain them (very humid where I was) and had to throw them out.
r/VALORANT • headphones or earphones for valorant ->Wireless Love my arctis novas. I keep sonar turned off. The replaceable batteries are bigley bigley key for me I wfh my kid uses my PC. I use my PC. I got tired of replacing $100 headphones every year because battery capacity is half. They had a Coolpix battery that's common so when capacity does die you can just get another (for now). They sound great the qnv is perfect for drowning out other noises.
r/simracing • Reliable good headphones for sim racing out there ? (preferably with no software) *PFA* ->I will have to dispute this one, sorry. While stealseries headphones are super comfy. I find the audio range is quite lacking. Just extra bass added to everything
r/ArcRaiders • Headphones Raccomendation for the best Arc Raiders experience ->I had a blackshark and loved it until the hinges disintegrated on me. I currently have the steelseries and it's... Okay? Noise canceling is useless on it. Software is ass. Other than that it's pretty good. The hot swappable batteries is neat. If I could go back I'd probably get the Audeze Maxwell. However they're heavy and a little unwieldy (I tried my friends on).
