This is the Provoked Prawn and this is a review of the ‪@SteelSeries‬ Arctis Nova 7 wireless, complete with mic test, a look at SteelSeries Sonar software and more on PC.
I've been using this headset for a couple of weeks testing it out and comparing it to my daily driver - the Nova Pro Wireless and I'm happy to report that the Nova 7 wireless is surprisingly good in a number of ways. It sounds great, it's reasonably comfortable and it has decent battery life too at 38 hours.
Highlights of the SteelSeries Nova 7 wireless:
- Dual Connectivity with 2.4GHz and Bluetooth at the same time
- Decent battery life with plenty of warning when you're running low
- Multi-platform capabilities (but best on PC)
- Connections for 3.5mm on the headset
- Flexible and comfortable sound
- Highly customisable audio in SteelSeries GG and SteelSeries Sonar
- Mic AI noise cancellation and of your friend's mics too!
Low lights:
- Scratchy ear pads
- Not as snazzy as the Nova Pro Wireless

I picked up a pair of these from eBay yesterday, brand new, £95. I bought them to replace a pair of Arctis 9 headphones (which is another pair of headphones I rate highly), and I am really happy so far. They are much lighter than the Arctis 9 headphones; for a person with a relatively small head, lighter headphones tend to be more comfortable. I found the Arctis 9 headphones didn't integrate brilliantly with Sonar, so I disabled it, but the Arctis Nova 7 is so far brilliant with Sonar. I don't play too many games, but I did test Sonar using Hell Let Loose and the positional audio was just... it was brilliant. I've listened to some high-quality audio tracks (ogg) and the clarity/quality of the tracks really does transfer well through these headphones, even if they are not audiophile/professional grade. I've only been using them for a few hours and I am really impressed so far - even though my Arctis 9 headphones are still going strong (but the battery life is terrible now, due to so much use), I will be giving them up and using these new headphones.

Guys, It's about my PS5, on which I tried 5 pairs of headphones. Razer Barracuda, Arctis 7X, Corsair HS80, Razer Barracuda again and now Arctis 7. Only on the first pair did the microphone of the headphones work for a while, but as I read, Razer has a problem with the dongle for that model of headphones, in the sense that it disconnects after a while and no longer works wirelessly. I kept looking in the settings, at various tutorials, etc., but nothing. I want to mention that when I go into the console settings to test the microphone, it works, but when I go into Call Of Duty, it doesn't work. Do you have any idea what it could be?

You can't charge them every night or the battery life gets short. I usually only charge them when needed and the Corsair software sucks. Half the time the side tone doesn't work.

Great video ! 3 questions.... 1) Are all these settings saved locally in the headset or do i need to keep the software running all the time for them to take effect. 2) Is there a difference in audio quality between 3.5mm and 2.4ghz dongle ? 3) Lets say i have the dongle connected to my pc and i connect the headset through 3.5mm to save battery. If i disconnect the 3.5 jack, does it connect to the dongle automatically ??

@biggest-bot7835 Жыл бұрын

1. I’m pretty sure these settings are saved locally and can be used on other devices as long as you use the 2.4ghz dongle 2. Yes there was always a difference between wired and wireless and this headset is not an exception. 3. Not sure what the question is exactly but I think when connected with 3.5 the headsets electronics are turned off and when you disconnect 3.5 I would assume you would need to turn on the headset since it was off in order to connect to the dongle.

I am currently using the steelseries arctis nova 7 purely because of the convenience of sound quality and simultaneous connectivity (bluetooth and 2.4Ghz). The major problem I have with them is the audio crackles a lot especially if it gets too high but it also happens sometimes even when the audio is pretty low. I need a pair of headphones where I can game on my PC whilst also talking to my friends on a PS party (unless I can somehow join a ps party from my PC). I play games such as Overwatch 2, Fortnite, COD MW2 and valorant so footsteps and game immersion are pretty important for me. My budget is around £150 but it can be increased. Also, can anyone explain how to fix these crackling noises I find on my Nova 7s and does anybody know any good EQ settings (on Steelseries Engine as I also game on PS5) for the games I have mentioned. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks!

Had headphones for 100 Euro before these with leather earcups cover and the sound was much cleaner.

Would these be an upgrade over the RIG 700hx?

@elatedglint Жыл бұрын

Oh definitely ive had those headphones before too but I recommend getting the nova 7x model since its more cateres toward the xbox

@bigjoe5434 Жыл бұрын

@Elated Glint well I went with the nova 7 for my pc gaming. But since they can be used for xbox as well I figured I'd let my nephew have my RIGs

The headphones are nice but the fit is much better on the Arctis 7s. They fit much better imo. Everything else on the Nova is better but the fit is just much worse imo.

@@Jeff_Sigmon try putting the audio to “tv” in mw3 if you play it, it boost the footsteps more. I think the problem with these headsets in console might be in the wireless feature, i heard the wire version are much louder and that can definitely help better, but of course we want wireless lmao

Tbh coming from the HyperX Cloud II wired these sounded horrible, even when I adjusted the EQ settings in Sonar. The sound in Call Of Duty and other games sounded so stale, like I could hear footsteps but couldn't pin point exactly where they were it was only "oh he is in this general direction". I ended up returning them and going with the beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 250 ohm version with a DAC/Amp and the sound quality is literally 100x better. Don't get me wrong if you don't care much about the sound quality and more about the wireless factor and the features this headset is great.

Idk man, I feel like it way just you, I got these arctis 9 to use for now until I can return them for the nova 7 and on MW2 with sonar eq for mw2 they sound amazing for competitive gaming. Im pretty sure youre not suppose to use it for "amazing immersion" but for exact locational footsteps which are 10/10 with this headset

I mean...obviously high ohm wired headphones with a dedicated DAC/amp are going to sound better. I don't care how much money you spend on a wireless set a decent wired headphone is going to be miles ahead.

The Stealth Pros are uncomfortable and overpriced for a largely plastic headset. Had them for a week and returned them. Went back to my Nova 7. If you’re spending $300, it makes no sense not to get the Audeze Maxwells. Much better quality and sound than the Stealth Pro.
