Recommendations for new headphones

SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, I just bought them 2 weeks ago mainly for siege. And its made a huge difference sound wise. (I was using Arctis Nova 5 Wireless for years before I changed)

I´m looking for a headset that can give me instant feedback of my voice and is adequate for gaming

Robotic Sound Issues with Arctis Nova Gen 2 Headset

I don’t have the steel series Arctic nova GEN 2 headset, but I do have the turtle beach stealth pro 2, and I’m having the same issue. Basically what’s happening is apparently there’s interference with the 2.4 GHz wireless reception. So if you have any other dongle close by or any of your Wi-Fi devic
