Is the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless Gen 2 worth buying for $150?

Don’t listen to this guy. SteelSeries makes some of the best headsets. I’ve been into audio for over 30 years and I have the Nova 7 Gen 1, which is the same audio as the Gen 2 pretty much. Nova 7 out of the box stock audio profile has very accurate bass and mids and it has great driver matching, so

Hows the sound of the steelseries arctis nova 5x?

Here's an update in case anyone cares. The Nova 3Ps arrived 2 hours ago and after a short test I immediately decided to return them. The audio quality itself was much easier on the ears compared to the Nova 5 I mentioned earlier. There weren't any shouty/shrilly high-pitches sounds like before (even

Looking for a headset with large cups and fantastic wireless range

It was between them and a set of SteelSeries Nova 7 Gen 2’s and after watching the reviews the SteelSeries had a horrible mic and I did not want that. Everyone I’ve played with said the Razor mic was very clear and crisp. They are light, comfortable, and I personally think they have roomy ear cups,

Upgrading from Arctis 5 ,Are the Arctis nova 5 worth it?

I just went from an Arctis 5 to the Nova 7 gen 2, so similar upgrade path. The sound on the Nova just smashes the Arctis. I’m not audiophile, but I noticed it the second I put them on. Comfort to me is similar. The nova line has a smaller ear cup which was an adjustment, but I bought Wicked Cushions

Cant decide between Arctis Nova 5/7gen2 (Both wireless)

i was in this same spot a few months back coming from the arctis 5. honestly for sound and mic quality, the nova 7 gen 2 pulls ahead a bit, it feels like a clearer step up. comfort is basically identical between them, both are great for long sessions. the 5 has that cool sonar app integration for ga

Do you prefer wired or wireless peripherals?

I went from full wired - Steel Series Arctis 5 and a Razer Deathadder V2 - to full wireless with the Nova 7 Gen 2 and a Death Adder V4 Pro. I much prefer the wireless. For the mouse, no contest. Anyone who says wired is better is living in the past. Only go wired if money is tight, on pure performan

Does Anyone Actually Swear by Steelseries?

I've been running the arctis nova 7 gen 2's for about two months now and I've been enjoying it so far. They're pretty comfortable to wear and audio is pretty good for games and music and the phone eq app is pretty awesome too it's nice they have a huge variety of games to choose from I've currently

Retiring my Arctis 5 Headset, Need a replacement

If it's wired best buy has the nova pros on sell right now for $209. I just tried multiple headsets to replace my arctis 7p headset I've had since 2020. The nova 5 sucked, the turtle beach stealth pro sucked,and the A50 was great but the top of the headset pushed down on my head too much. Ultimately
