PlayStation Pulse Elite Headset Review - $150 gets you a lot these days...
Рет қаралды 139,062
Күн бұрынThe PlayStation Pulse Elite wireless headset is enters a crowded space with some of the best resources available. The PlayStation division acquired Audeze last year, and audiophile headphone brand, and is now releasing products like the Elite headset with Audeze Planar-magnetic drivers. There is a lot of hype on how good this headset could be, especially when the price is still relatively affordable considering the robust feature set included with it. In this review I cover every detail to help you decide if it's the best headset for you or not!

UPDATES: 1(.5) - Despite the claim by Sony that the pads were glued, Wicked Cushions confirmed they are not. They are working on a replacement pad with about a 4 month ETA (tops). 2 - Sony said that if you apply an EQ profile on PS5, it instantly saves to the headset, and will follow that sound profile on PC and the Portal. 3 - I confirmed the Pulse Elite works on the switch with the Pulse Link USB adapter if you are in docked mode. 4 - You are all awesome people

the consistent update👍 will you be doing a comparison video with other headsets? And compare the advantages/disadvantages of using non-Sony PlayStation headsets on strictly ps5? I’ve experienced many headsets that aren’t ps5 dedicated headsets to sound worse and low volume on ps5 than using it on PC.
@Noneya5555 4 ай бұрын
Joe, thanks for the update. The fact that the earcups are not replaceable creates cause for concern regarding their long-term durability. Also, would really appreciate it if you or any of your followers could answer any of my other questions posted in a previous comment (posted below). So far, none of the YT reviews I've watched have addressed them: 1) What size are the drivers? 2) Does the wireless dongle work with wifi or Bluetooth, as with the Maxwell? 3) Are the earpads replaceable? [Answered. Thx, Joe.] 4) Can the Pulse Elite be used while charging? 5) How good is it for listening to music? 6) Will you be dropping a follow-up EQ settings video for the Pulse Elite, to approximate its SQ to the Harmon curve? 7) What Bluetooth codec(s) does the Pulse Elite support?

You are hands-down one of the best reviewers on KZfaq. I do have one criticism, which relates to planar technology - which nobody points out. The drivers are extremely fragile. I went through 2 Penrose headsets, before I looked online & realised the issue is widespread. I'm referring to the foil crinkle sound from the driver, which even occurs when the headset is switched off. The sound is horrendous. This can be caused by essentially creating a vacuum seal. The change in pressure can disrupt & permanently damage the driver. Audeze hand wave this issue as normal. It absolutely isn't! They advise to be very careful putting the headset on. But should adjusting the fit of a headset with kid gloves be an acceptable caveat? I think not. For this reason alone, I avoided the Maxwell. I looked online & the same issues persist. I'm not scaremongering. But this needs to be highlighted. If you have an old planar magnetic headset you are willing to sacrifice, you can test it. Once on your head with a tight seal, push on the ear cup a few times & the driver will be permanently damaged. That tin foil noise does not go away. I will be interested to know if Sony have overcome this design flaw? I suspect not. It's a fundamental issue with planar magnetic drivers, which I will avoid until this fragility is solved. I hope you see fit to provide this warning on future reviews involving planar tech. Keep up the great work. 👍
@simonbrandy9662 4 ай бұрын
Further to my previous. If you do the test I suggested on an old planar magnetic headset. You can even do this by placing the headset onto a flat surface and pushing down onto the earcups. I know exactly what the result will be. But it may be worth a video on this issue. It would be refreshing to see this highlighted, because so far, not a single reviewer has brought up this problem. When it happened to me, I was just adjusting the headset on my head for a tighter seal. That is completely unreasonable, and Audeze passing this off as normal - then providing instructions to be very careful when putting the headset on - is admission of the design flaw. Planar drivers sound great. But this design flaw is completely unacceptable. Try it! Just ensure you pick a headset you no longer use.

This is the 4th review I found on the Elite, and it’s by far the most detailed one. You spend most of your time on the sound quality which is the most important thing about headsets (other reviewers spent more time on how to set it up, buttons etc.). Not only do you provide an entire frequency response database (!) of dozens of headsets, you even put the creme on top and give us a quick comparison to other popular headsets! I couldn’t stop watching, this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much.

They are quality drivers in a £50 headset housing imho.

Maxwells sounded better but man were they uncomfortable. Also pleather pads are not great on these. Actually would never use them and they are a big part why they sound good. So Novas are my daily driver for now. Sound good enough dont cook my ears and are supremly compfy. Only minus is the mic but I have an external one anyway.

Side note, reading some other feedback - if you own a PlayStation Dualsense Edge controller, the extra FN buttons actually allow for quick ability to game/chat mix (which will be better to not lift your hand away from the controller anyway). Obviously this means you have to buy the controller but someone really into shooters probably owns it or is considering both - which is still cheaper combo than the Astro A50x

This is probably why it doesn't have it on the headset; Sony probably expects gamers that get the Pulse Elite to have the DualSense Edge as well.

I use the edge for Witcher 3, spiderman (for web shooters) manual shifting on racing games like GT7 and the crew, domed joysticks and fine tuned joystick settings for rocket league, and obviously settings for fortnite. The controller is on par with the pulse elite headset. The joystick curve tuning is extremely useful and flexible, pretty much the only thing I tune besides button mapping on the paddles and the half domed paddles are genius.

Absolutely stellar review, thank you for this and congrats on the sponsorship! As an owner of both the Pulse Elite and Explore, as well as the H9, I also did quite a lot of (unprofessional) testing and have come to similar conclusions. The only thing I disagree on is that I think the Elite has a hard time keeping up in games that don't rely on positioning and clarity, which it excels at. Games like Final Fantasy 7 or other more soundtrack-heavy games loose a bit of punch when using the Elite as compared to the Explore, which I personally really enjoy using for these kinds of games. Overall, I'd say the Elite is a very good headset to buy if you only plan on getting one, especially if you play a lot of shooters, racing titles or other games with a realistic sound setting. If you play all sorts of stuff, I think the Explore are a better jack of all trades - although those come with other issues like the tip fitment and significantly shorter battery life, of course.
@TheColdest247 4 ай бұрын
Man, I thought I was crazy because I purchased both the explore and elites thinking I'd just end up liking the headset a whole lot better since I didn't really see any positive reviews of the earbuds. After getting the EQ update and using a different set of ear tips other than the ones that Sony provided the ear buds sounded like night and day. While the headset is a tad louder to me, I just think the overall sound of the earbuds were slightly better in the games I tested which really shocked me. I love both setups but at the end of the day I just might end up only keeping one, and so far it's looking like the explore earbuds.

Thanks! In countless blind tests, humans have not been able to discern a sound quality difference from 16/44 to anything above that.

@@GadgetryTech thanks brother interesting considering HD audio is essentially anything over 16bit 44.1Khz. It’s a fad! I used to do audio engineering as a job, there is a reason to record at higher sample rates and bit depth which means you can capture more detail (lower end harmonics and mid details that are harmonics of higher frequencies) but as far as I can tell from what you say in reproducing those harmonics 16bit 48khz is more than enough!

Amazing review. I got my PS5 Slim yesterday (first one since PS2, a looong time ago) together with this headset, and the quality is amazing, it worth every cent.

Great to see this review on your channel. Hope you grow more. I am using TB stealth pro which are great for footsteps on warzone. Can you do more explanation on eq settings for warzone as i got these coming in a day and would like to compare them with stealth pro

Thank you for this. Im a Steel series guy and was thinking about the Artic 7’s. This video convinced me to shoot for the elites

Hi Joey, greetings from Germany. Thank you very much for all of your reviews. You helped me alot choosing a new gaming headset which i can also use on my mac for daily work. First of all ive ordered the Astro A30s. But i dont like mic. Therefore i ordered the Pulse Elites now (After watching your deep dive). Hopefully they‘ll be Great for Teams COD and Helldivers. Thanks!

This is a great review and the detail you go into is so impressive and really helpful. I picked up the Arctis Nova 7 in October & those have been great but was feeling regret at not waiting for these. Are the pulse elites enough of a leap to make it worth upgrading? The cushions not being replacable feels like a bit of drawback. Keep up the great work!:)

Already have the headset preordered but was waiting to hear your review. Glad it turned out so well! Question though, have you tried wearing the headset while also wearing the PSVR2? I’d like to use this headset while VR gaming as well

Thanks for the review, would have been nice to see if they fit better over the PSVR2. I have these on pre order and have the last model, I do find the old ones a bit awkward over the headset.

@GadgetryTech you deserve it bro and I hope a lot more companies approach you I love my Nova 7 Wireless, it’s a great headset, but now I’m going to buy the Pulse Elite, because it has the planar magnetic drivers, which means it has great detail retrieval and you mentioned that in the video, but what made instantly decide to order it is, when you said it has insane imaging. Planar magnetic driver detail and insane imaging, it’s an easy decision for me
