r/XboxSeriesXlSHey guys, what headphones do you recommend for playing on Xbox Series X? What do you think are the best?
4 months ago

I had a very cheap like £20 set for a while as I only really used it to chat to friends but since ive started getting back into online games like helldivers 2 and battlefield 6 I got some steel series arctis nova 3x for about £90 and honestly they do the job fine for me without breaking the bank. The only thing I do find is when I turn the xbox on I need to unplug and plug back in the dongle as sometimes it wouldn't connect but I just do it out of habbit now. Other than that really good battery life and no issues at all.

I use a cheap cabled Steelseries 3(?) cabled one. Good enough for me, but just like my old bose headset I had the glue in the earpads give up the same week and the headset becomes more or less junk. The fit and smart headstrap design is very comfortable.

I'm having a great time with the steelseries arctis nova 3's, on amazon i got them on sale for about 75quid, only thing i'm not a fan of is the software, extra bloatware, its not great and the software to mix game and chat volume and master volume is all seperate, however if you don't have the software open the chat and gaming still override the master volume, meaning you have to disable the other 2 everytime you boot your pc

r/BuyFromEUGaming Headset from a European Brand – Any Recommendations?

The Steelseries Arctis Nova 3, which are the ones I got a year and a while ago, are fantastic for the 100€ I paid. Nowadays you can get them for 70€ or less, they're a steal, they sound great, the micro is good, they're comfortable for long sessions and they are a trusted and widely recommended headset for a medium budget. I saw in another comment you recommended some Sennheisser that go from more than twice that price (right now about 180€, down from 220€). And you also add a modmic clipon that cost 70€ and up because the Sennheiser doesn't even have a mic. Unfair comparison when the price difference is the triple or more.

r/playstationWhen you play games. Do you wear a headset?

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).

The original Arctis definitely had a weak point at the hinge. However the newer Arctis Nova has redesigned the hinge and it has been great for about 5 years now.

Steel Series Arctis Novas are always a solid choice. The band on the headset makes it the most comfortable over others.

I have the Nova Pro Wireless, had the prev version too. They seem to last ~3 years using them ~60 hours a week. Very good all around but if that life expectancy doesn't fit your budget I'd look elsewhere.

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.
