@@Hypno_BPM man, not everyone didnt hv a life or job. Sometimes you just want to plug n play a game or two before going to bed after a bad day.

Yes, i can charge using usb cable normally, but, having the ability to "choice" on how im going to use my headset, is, kinda dope.

Keep in mind that the nova pro also has built in 10 band EQ and mixing capabilities. These features are a must for some people.

@@Hypno_BPM You just swap them. It takes like 10 seconds and then you're always wireless. It's also much easier to just buy a few new batteries if they start to wear down after a few years, compared to just needing to charge the headset all the time

@@alvesvaren that’s the point i’m making , you don’t have to charge these headphones all the time. it’s like once a week for 15-20 min that’s it. rather than charging the back up batteries for 3 hours every other day.

Love my Nova 7s! Got them from Best Buy a couple months back. Super comfortable, customizable (via both software and buttons on the headset, like the voice:game volume toggle), and decently affordable for that. I’m happy with them. I didn’t realize how much my Turtle Beaches sucked haha, but makes sense given they’re like $50

[@alsius9162]

may be over a year on but, perfect video. both nova 7 and pro were on sale for prime day.. went with the 7 because the extra 'premium' features of the pro i wouldn't even use, and the volume limiter tip was absolutely incredible as I just got the headset and was wondering why they seemed quiet. Perfect, thankyou

[@val818ley]

Perfect review. I bought the pro’s and I hated that center of the headphones. Extremely uncomfortable and it took a long time to get them to connect. I contacted support and they couldn’t do anything. The Nova 7 was a better buy

The timing was so good, I had been looking for a good headset for over a week now. I would’ve gone either with Nova pro wireless or Audeze Maxwell (probably Audeze), but I heard so many complains about the build quality and weight that I wasn’t really sure. After seeing the Nova 7 wireless, I checked some shops nearby and to my surprise they had it for sale! Even with a discount! Going to get them tomorrow, thanks for the suggestion.

So I have been seriously considering going wired. Recently, my Sony H9s crapped out on me. The leather around the bottom of the headband came off, making them uncomfortable to wear. The Battery life on the H9s are pretty terrible, its just better to keep them plugged in. SO I ran to Walmart, wanting to get a cheap pair of replacement ones just for now, and I ended up getting some Astro A10s. They are totally wired only connect to a PC using a 3.5mm plug. I would describe the sound as "okay". No noise cancelling, so I can still the hear the tv when my wife is watching Hulu while I am gaming. But it got me thinking... maybe I should just go wired from now on?

[@ewah25]

Great video! Im about to return my Pros due to the terrible ANC (transparency mode actually) which was the only reason I bought it. I really enjoy being able to hear my surroundings while gaming and after not being able to get any external mic to work with Airpods Maxs, I went with the pros. I was incredibly disappointed as I seriously cant even tell a difference from Noise canceling and Transparency. Didnt fully understand the difference between the 7s and Pros but now I do, knowing I can atleast have a cheaper headset that does the same things.

Thanks for that fast and clear video! but what about the Sony H9? It’s still a price difference around 70€ to the Nova Pro. So my question is, Nova 7 or H9 (if going cheaper than Nova Pro)?

[@labemolon5739]

I own both and prefer the Arctis Nova Pro over the 7’s. I swapped my ear pads out with gel mesh ear pads because (I agree) the faux leather pads were just too hot and nasty after any normal gaming session. The battery swapping is a major plus with the Pros and nobody uses the USB charging method on the pros when you can just swap a battery in the base station. The weight difference is not noticeable. On both headsets the speaker/driver reproduction of sounds is decent when gaming and using Sonar… but for movies or music the drivers crackle on both headsets at maximum volume which is a huge downfall because you can easily get an audiophile level headset and add a ModMic for the same price.

Both are good headphones but if you have a clicky clacky keyboard you are gonna want ANC. it doesn't matter how much you turn them up if anc isnt on you will hear everything around you. Transparency mode on the nova pros isnt like normal ambient sound headphones, you can tell its playing the noise around you back into your ears. Anc basically isnt noise cancelling its noise reducing, you still hear whats going on around you like air conditioners and what not. I just got them yesterday, other than that the nova pros are great so far

Thank you for another great video. Can you(or someone), please clarify on the Nova 7's if there is a volume limiter option that can be disabled, and if so, does this carry over to console? Please and thank you.

[@jorywinward212]

there is a volume limiter that can be disabled, as far as that translating to console I think you would have to connect it to pc, turn off the volume limiter in the GG software and then when you plug it back into the console those settings should be saved (any Sonar settings do not cross over to console however)
