Arctis Nova Elite - Obsidian

If I was gonna go wireless again I would just get a refurbished pair of Maxwells. The only wireless set that gets anywhere near them is the SteelSeries Nova Elites and I'm not paying £600 for worse sound quality.

Agreed. As someone who has tried all the brands steel series to me has the worst sound quality. I prefer the maxwells, a50 gen 5's, and stealth pros to the nova pro's and nova elites.

I tested a few headsets recently due to issues with the maxwell (some really weird compatibility problem with maxwell and my laptop). I now am using a maxwell headset with an antlion wireless modmic and the combination is gorgeous. The steel series Nova Elite is barely an upgrade from the pro and I

I have these and just wanna say that they rival my SteelSeries Nova Elite’s. My only issue is I wish there was a bit more volume overhead (going louder), as there is a significantly lower volume with ANC off. With ANC on, it does get a bit louder. Also, in the app, the headphones correctly reflect t

Just another thought on this video, but it's yet another video where the Nova Elite gets reviews that are basically that it's good not great. Which is insane because it's $600, which outprices even Apple's ludacrisly expensive AirPods Max. I feel like Steel Series really needed that thing to be the

I'll hand it to them, the design and feel of the headset is hands down top of the line quality. The hinges are thick metal, and feel hefty, and they take a bit of effort to twist into place. Problem is they sound awful out of the box, so for me, that's a deal breaker. I want a headset to come out of

The sidetone is abysmal, on both the Nova Pro Wireless and Nova Elites. One of the reasons I sent mine back. Had the sidetone been usable I’d have probably kept them and tweaked the audio, but sidetone is an absolute must have feature on a headset with leather pads. The Nova 5 series & 7 series have

I would say that the introduction of ultra low latency LC3 codec is now blurring the lines between audio headphones and gaming headsets. Assuming the next iteration of the Maxwells would try to compete with the likes of the Steel Series Arctis Nova Elite's and the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro's (the Maxw

Nova Elite is definitely not worth the price just to have the same build and only a little bit more audio quality. I’m a SteelSeries fan. I have the Nova 7 and Nova Pro. I tried the Nova Elite and I don’t think it’s worth that high price. What annoyed me the most about this headset is, how they’re c

I tried both and I think it is because the Evole3 75 has more pressure on your ears. The Evolve3 85 feels better, after one hour. I also have the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova Elite and they are way more uncomfortable. I guess typical gamers need that high passive Noise Cancellation. My wife always sc
