‘I wish they had more bass’. I initially said the same thing, but after consistently using them now for about a week, both for gaming, phone, music, watching movies, etc. I can safely say that I’m actually liking the fact that I’m not drowning in bass, I can hear more of the highs and mids that I was missing with other bass heavy headsets, and I had subwoofers installed in all my cars for 20+ years.

[@alf3052]

Thanks. You understand my ears and I appreciate you for that. I bought em today can't wait to check em out on GTA or helldivers

[@divacroft1034]

you DO NOT want bass with video games....

[@skullfracture3870]

@@divacroft1034 did read my whole comment, or did you just read the first line then respond out of context?

[@ngunsokay]

I remember helping you test out one of the PS4 Gold Headset mic in party chat back in the day, hearing the clicks when you would turn it up/down through the mic slightly. Man time flies. These look awesome.

[@UrAvgConsumer]

I remember that! Thanks for your help back then bro 👊🏾

[@AmmanBaig]

hell yeah that 12th unboxing grab on the snacks time flies.... \

[@rubng__]

Finding these to have impressive crisp and detail. Never heard anything like it before. Happy with them

[@yaboyracc1851]

Being able to actually use the sound controls on ps5 sold me on it. It’s gonna be so much more convenient pressing the mute button on the controller, or using the edge to adjust the party mix and sound.

[@Mr.bl0w]

Always the first channel i check for PlayStation stuffs

[@KarnageKollectibles]

I ordered this because of 1 feature. The ability to have both Bluetooth and the PS5 audio at the SAME EXACT TIME. The Xbox wireless headset does this too and its the reason I love that headset but obviously never had this option for Sony. Now you can listen to a podcast on youtube or whatever while playing a game on PS5 at the same time. Its a killer feature IMO.

[@KarnageKollectibles]

FYI just got mine and its a beast. The most comfortable headset I've owned and I own the Kraken V3 Pro, the Xbox Razer Kaira Pro, the Xbox wireless headset and the regular Pulse 3D. This is my new favorite. Its not cheap feeling like the regular Pulse 3D pro either. It's much more quality materials and the ear cups are so soft! My one complaint is I wish the ear cups were slightly bigger since I have big ears. I can still fit inside of them but I feel for someone who may have bigger ears than me. Also, when the cups go over your ears the block out noise is insane! 9.5/10 so far.

[@allan2595]

what games do you play? i own the 3d pulse and was super underwhelmed. are these way better for footsteps and other sounds? :)

[@DankScole]

If it wasn’t for this video I never would’ve found the mounting piece 😭 thank you

Your level of video editing is actually nuts.

[@sour_offwhite1520]

been waiting on you to post this review

[@TheColdest247]

Owned these but ended up buying the pulse explore for overall comfort, so I returned them. Came across a pair on mercari for $50 great condition and I couldn't resist.

[@harisshakil2040]

Really good review thanks

[@TekatoViews]

Very insightful, I was thinking of either getting this or the Logitech headphones

[@theuncanspan]

Clean review my homie

[@einfachlucas]

Use a double-sided adhesive pad for the mount :-)

[@ljeans531]

Bruh, he is literally fishing hard for criticism. Like he is complaining that they even gave him a mount, cause now he doesn't know where to put it.🙄

[@HearMeLearn]

@@user-kz4ir5ux9f luckily for me after I posted this I went out to my garbage to see if the box was there and at least reachable, it was and I was able to grab that piece 😂. They really should put that in a better spot

[@CAMxFWO]

Double side sticky tape would go a long ways for that mount

[@Bionicbabyy]

Great review. I actually used double sided tape and mounted it on the inside of my cabinet. If I did not have that I would buy a stand and fix it up or just wait for a 3rd party stand like you said.

[@rayngai4948]

Do you prefer this over Explore ? I found wearing the Explore is not as comfortable. Also very tricky to get a good sound. Any thought ?

[@dcollie20]

Dooope unboxing KING,just brought these yesterday along with a cosmic red controller 🔥🔥🔥👍👍💯

[@user-sk3jy7gc7k]

Did you have problems because of the call or not?

[@Recline17]

Super legit review. Just got mine today

[@JpistolP12]

Been waiting on this video 🔥🔥

[@KyleXlr8]

great review!

[@Paul-je6pw]

Great review Judner, why don't you use 3M command hanging strips for the Pulse elite hook for your existing headphones stand or to use anywhere ? Will Sony being updating the V1 pulse with the planar drivers or use them in future 1000XM flagship range.

[@JuanRoldan]

Gotta get myself a pair!

[@kingzrjaygaming8536]

I want to see the comparison with those other headphones

[@MrWarfaregamer1]

Loved the review and just copped a pair but BRO! Where did you get that PS Portal dock?!

[@__alves_]

Great review

[@halo3boy1]

my OG pulse is on life support, need these asap

[@Skyman58]

Hi, first, I'd like to say thank you for such an in-depth review. I would like to ask one question: in your opinion, is the bass similar, better, or worse than the original Pulse 3Ds? Thank u so much.

[@TRUMP_2024_PREZ]

GETTING MY ELITE NEXT WEDNESDAY 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@ohhimarc_182]

What's that stand you have for the Portal? I'm desperate for one!

[@Lightbringer-]

Mine just got here today theyre great

[@EbonyGames]

Damn the Mic sounds a lot better than the old one, and the Noise Cancellation is top tier-

[@Fumze]

Goin crazy in the firing range brodie

[@TheSocialSystem]

I love mine I have my industrial pierced almost a decade now and the pulses would make it super sore, these ones are so comfortable and can sit ontop of my head without giving a headache. Not to mention how good they sound and the AI technology built in! Cheers 🎉

[@kido3607]

For the hanger just use double sided tape under a desk instead

[@Acconda]

Thanks for the review! They are Great value for money! I was worried I made a mistake with getting the Maxwell. I love bass in single player games and the Maxwell have plenty! seems like I would have been a little disappointed with the elites in that regard. I also hate “bright” headsets and other reviewers seem to mention the higher frequencies need knocking down a little, which is why I also sold my novas.

[@Gadgetbig]

Also jay didn’t mention.. you can actually charge a ps5 controller on the charger stand that comes with the headset.

[@beng6149]

Mine are coming next week

[@angel-_-1878]

Yes can you please do a comparison with both headsets‼️‼️

[@skullfracture3870]

My own mounting solution until I can permanently place it is double sided 3M pull tape, it’s currently taped to the edge of my desk on the bottom. Right now I’m watching this video while using this headset on my phone, at work, eating lunch.

[@jeffreyquah]

I would definitely like to see a comparison between this and the Inzone H9. I love my H9 mainly because of how comfortable it is, but if the Elite is a clear upgrade I might have to consider switching.

[@Jdb63]

Isn't the H9 like $300? I doubt it'll be better given it's half the price

[@jeffreyquah]

@byiihizq Thank you!

[@djbpresents9584]

Just preorder mine

[@PunkRockLifer]

I am so happy that they have softer, more comfortable ear foam because the last ones were hard and so uncomfortable for me, especially wearing think framed glasses

[@lilsquirt467]

Are they comfortable with glasses because I wear glasses and sometimes is hard wearing headphones

[@Tyrizzle505]

Def want to see that comparison

[@Jaypher]

I fully expect 3D printers on etsy releasing mount variants for that charging stand.

[@dr.chungusphd108]

I ordered a pair for my 42nd birthday to myself tomorrow. Can’t wait to hear those new magnetic planar speakers. Not sure how I feel about the way the head band extends past the rear of the earphones though.

Would love the comparison with the h9 honestly. I have h9 but the cups are huge.

[@williehew]

Hey UrAvgConsumer! Was that mic test done paired over Bluetooth to your recording gear or via the PS Link USB dongle?

[@kevinlopez8498]

What do you recommend overall as your best PS5 headset still haven’t purchased anything yet but definitely in the market for the best headset!

[@daffyduck4482]

Hey urAverageConsumer loved the review only question i have is does the pulse elite work with the duelsense edge?

[@kinghoff316]

Yes it works with it. No reason why it wouldn’t. I believe you can even control the chat/game mix audio with the Fn button instead of pulling it up under the control center/quick menu.

[@Soulcommander]

How did you get yours before release? You must have some super connections!

[@zanychelly]

Its bigger brother, Audeze Maxwell, has a lot of deep bass and precision. On the pulse Elite, I think that it is a conjunction the Digital Signal Processing used by PlayStation on this headset (running) + the drivers for that specific headset. But the Maxwell is doubled the price.

[@DarkSwoles]

Is there a way to make the mic on the headset better? Not sure if it was just me, but it sounded quite a bit muddier than I'd like unless the noise cancellation can be turned off and increase the gain on the headset

[@skorpion72586]

That box shouldn't have made me so upset. At least you found that pull tab. I pulled everything but that

[@ThreeFortySeven]

I preordered these. Shame to hear there isn’t more bass. Honestly though, the battery life is worth the upgrade alone.

[@jasperverbrugghe3933]

I own the PULSE 3D and it still works great but is this one that much better?

[@Belgarath777]

New subscriber. How does the bass compare with the previous version? Im not a bass heavy person, so as long as there is enough bass for gaming, thats all I care about.

[@DodoZFishing]

40 seconds in the video and you made my day, was gonna throw the box, didn’t know it had a charging hanger 😭🥹

[@balaji71998]

What about the 3D sound or spatial recognition?

[@sivashankerkrishnaswamy2339]

Very much informative video...I am interested in purchasing but can you tell me does the headphones is suitable for music purpose..... In terms of Gran Torismo 7 music

[@butterman2409]

Wonder how these compare to the Inzone H9

[@ZrKy7]

I'd love to see a comparison between the inzones and the pulse.

[@Euphisteme]

Looks cool nice vid

[@zacbryant7344]

Funny u said that about opening the box cuz i just got mine yesterday and it was a pain to open it!

[@CraigLewis]

Please do a Pulse Elite being used with the VR2🤔

[@andrewburgess2494]

Should have spoke about using them on a pc. And performance using the 3.5mm jack.

[@EdwardElric6464]

I would love to see you compare these to not only the INZONE H9 but to the Audeze maxwell. Since the Pulse Elite are using planar drivers from Audeze(who Sony now owns) and the H9 are the same price as the Maxwell at 300$. It would we be an interesting Ven diagram of Sony gaming headphones. Also the Maxwell can do bass like a mofo so you might like em. They're not bass boosted but you can EQ to add more and even if you don't, on bassy tracks you really feel it.

[@johnjhayesiv8022]

Please do a comparison between these and the Inzone H7/H9’s!

[@sampsmith81]

I would like to see comparison with the inzone. Specifically, comparing value for money given I expect the inzone to provide some better quality.

[@YukyDoodle]

Another huge selling point is LOSSLESS audio connection with the PlayStation link. Highest quality of audio from your audio source to your headset. As good or sometimes even better than wired.

[@Cpt.GinOkami]

please make video on pulse elite vs pulse explore. I cannot decide which one to get. I want to know how the mics and sound compare between them.

[@gabrielbrito4345]

Which is better in terms of audio, is the Elite louder in volume and has more bass than the Explore? Which is better overall?

[@razorlightmike4353]

Please can you test with PSVR2 to see if it still fits as well as the pulse 3d did? The pulse 3d helped keep the PSVR2 headset from falling down and fit snuggly on the head.

[@3elawi]

uravgconsumer has above average music taste. lil wayne and future. he knows ball

[@LexRose2152]

Curious if the mic works while retracted, or if it has to be pulled out?

[@marcusvonmaximus8071]

Are the ear cups bigger than the originals? I hate the pulse ear cups because they tested on my ears and not over them.

[@MoeSizlak]

Please do a comparison with the other Sony branded headsets. I am looking to go first party with my PS5. Right now I am using the Turtle Beach 700 Gen 2 Max headset for both the PS5 and Series X. I also have the PS5 version of the Astro A30s. I am a bit of a headphones junkie so I have a large variety of headsets all around.

[@joshuapomales732]

Don’t use a screw, use that 3M tape that can stick to the wall without damaging your paint job. I forget what it’s called but they sell it in target.

[@jesusarce7226]

Gonna need a comparison between all 3. Pulse 3D, Pulse Elite and Pulse Explore 🤔

[@xxnike0629xx]

The only con that I'd give is the lack of a metal frame. The plastic frame is going to eventually get micro cracks that will eventually snap. The ear cup material looks like the kind that will crack up and peel. Listening to that 1 person in the lobby that is eating and drinking loudly... 🤣 I think it would make sense to do a comparison video with the Inzone headphones. Beside audio quality, another important aspect for me is the build quality. The materials used, how durable they are, etc.

[@Acconda]

We need a top headset shootout, elites vs Maxwell vs nova pro vs Astro a50x light speed vs Logitech x2 vs stealth pro vs A-Rise. Maybe three categories, single player winner vs fps winner and best overall

[@shaiyahtimmons3122]

Then you’ll want to check out gadgetry tech (he does that comparison)

[@ziggyvertang3257]

I'm just attaching to the wall behind the TV with a no nails stick pad, get a good one and the headphones aren't heavy enough to pull it off should be fine and not putting a hole in my wall
