||Posted .

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using these headphones for about 6 months and they are by far my favorite ones I’ve ever used. I’ve had Astro a40, a50, and cheap turtle beaches. These are better than all of those by far, highly recommend.

Best wired headset
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had Astro a40 TR with mix amp in the past, which I used for BR/FPS games. Tried to use them again but the mixamp wont update. Known issue by Astro/Logitech and they still wont fix. Researched headsets and found the steelseries artctis pro nova set. Tried the wireles which were good but a bit pricey for what I use my headset for (normally game at a desk). The game dac with this unit is amazing. Many settings that can be accessed while plugged into a console. Even more unlocked when you hook it up to a pc and use the software. Changing preset EQ’s (Apex, CoD, Pubg, etc.) on the fly while plugged into the console is fire. I find this headset to be leaps and bounds ahead of the Astro’s especially for the price. However get the best bang for your buck by waiting until they go on sale. Best decision ever to grab these. 10/10 would recommend for gaming.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Gaming, Sound quality

Nice headset but mic issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me start off by saying, I've gone through multiple headsets. Astro, other SteelSeries, Corsair, etc...I've had plenty. Overall, the headset is really nice. The gamedaq was a feature I was super excited about since I have both my PC and Xbox Series X. Setup was a breeze, no issues there, just plug in and go. For the sound quality, I enjoyed them, but I'd actually say I like my SteelSeries Arctis Pros better than these Novas. A few things I noticed with this headset: -It unfortunately had an echo. I tried so many things on my PC to alleviate this but my friends could still hear themselves talking. Other threads online I found that more people had this same issue -Mic started dying after less than a month. I used these for both gaming and work and just 2 days ago I started getting people saying I was cutting out on phone calls while working. I had also noticed in party chats the mic would randomly stop being picked up as well. Super unfortunate as I absolutely love SteelSeries headsets. This was the third one I've owned from this brand and they are the comfiest headsets ever(coming from someone who wears glasses). I decided to return these and go with the Astro A40 TRs as those also include a mixamp option. I may or may not have just gotten a lemon headset, but I hope this helps someone decide on their purchase!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Ear hurt
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
SteelSeries makes some great headsets:
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.And This is one of the Best. I upgraded from an Arctis 9X And this thing does even better between my Xbox Xbox and my PC. It even has a preset of equalizers for a lot of the big games to enhance your gaming audio experience. The only thing that I would knock this thing for is common with all the steel series I’ve had and that is it’s ear padding is not as thick as I need it to be. But luckily, you can get thicker ones on Amazon and even customize it to look even better.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Sound quality
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Ok for Xbox probably better for PC
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is great and this is easily the most comfortable lightweight headset I’ve ever worn. However, the microphone quality is absolutely terrible for a headset that’s this expensive. According to my friends I sounded much clearer with my 7 plus year old turtle beach headset I replaced. The gamedac is cool, but not very useful unless you’re playing on a PC where you can actually manipulate settings with the Steele software. Also, since there’s not much info on it, you CANNOT save settings on the gamedac from the PC to use on Xbox. You get what you get if you’re using it on Xbox. I would not buy again to use on Xbox, but if you’re on PC these could be incredible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Q: QuestionCan I run a new 20 foot usb cord from my Xbox to the dac so I can have the dac right next to me
Asked by Jones.
- A:Answer USB cables longer than 15 Ft have to have an signal amplifier to them... unless you use a USB>ethernet converter kit.... which is only for USB2.0 (fine for sound devices like this, although may not be compatible with the XBox) I used a USB to ethernet kit for a blue mic once for an escape room mic so the escape room operator could hear the people in the room.
