[@jamesstevens968]

Hi I hope you play on pc because these atlas are mostly for pc I'm rocking the nova pro wireless fir my ps5 and the astro a50x but haven't touched the astro a50x since I've been using the nova pro wireless I have the new white edition nova pro decked out in the snow white wicked cushions and the snow white silicone band and side plates awesome if you can afford them astro a50x too much bass so I don't think these new turtle beach are going to outshine the nova pro white edition I don't want to downgrade but stay safe and happy gaming to all

I just purchased the 7x and found this video sold me. 100% returning the 7x and already ordered the nova 5 wireless along with the wicked cushions black camo combo. All for less than the price of the 7x, more lightweight, with access to the app for eq on the fly. Dont need the bluetooth. I play Spotify in the background on my Series X and can even control it via my phone app (volume, control of songs, easier to search on phone)

[@argonaut31]

What a great review! I literally bought the 7s yesterday and I am taking them back because the app control is a must for me!! Its a real shame that Steel Series cant update the 7s firmware to add the app control. Thank you for the information.

[@clawson32104]

I was in the same boat decision wise just last week when my 2yr old got a hold of my 7X and broke them. I was using my old back up Nova 1 model and realized the 5 is very similar to them build wise. I got the Nova 5 for $110 on sale then paid $30 for the Wicked Cushions Freeze. Absolutely pleased with them as they sound identical to my old 7X but fit my smaller head much more sect. Also my friends told me right away that the microphone was much clearer.

[@slickmastajay]

FYI for all Xbox Series owners, you can play Spotify and possibly other streaming audio apps simultaneously with your game and have full control of volume balance between both. Just run your game, press the Xbox button, select the audio streaming service in the menu, press the xbox button and go back to your game while keeping music in the background.

[@MMerwey]

My 7x broke due to carelessness, being able to simultaneously hear your game + talk over your phone is nice for a while but playing online games that has built in voice chat function like GTA V - you will lose the simultaneous feature so if I'm talking to someone on my phone, I need to switch off my bluetooth or hang up in order to use voice chat in PC game. I'll go try 5x this time. Thanks for the great comparison.

[@drunksquirrel2051]

Had 7p for a month, sent them back and got nova 5x for PS5 due to the better mic and app support However, I'm not happy with them already and gonna go back to nova 7p because: 1. Headband fits more tight on head and I have a large head, , I get headaches in a hour with nova 5. The all plastic has less clamping vs metal 7 band. 2. Elastic head band is cheaper and doesn't fit as good as nova 7, its too long and allows less adjustments. 3. Ear coverings are cheaper and more rough feeling on skin, not as soft as nova 7 4. App has a hard time connecting to headset if you don't follow exact steps 5. Setting custom eq still requires pc connection, cannot be done on app.

[@chencg179]

Got the 7’s after watching your reviews and I love them! My favourite headset. Had the old pro wired for 4 years. These sound more full. Better for both story and fps. Some gg tweaking made them even better. But one of the best out the box headsets I’ve had

[@iCryptixYT]

What are your eq settings for 7?

[@cocoakrispies]

Really good review G. Hopefully I can get the 5s

[@frogogogo]

One thing to note with the Nova 5 build quality is that the ear cups are secured on both sides for tilt mobility, and the swivel is now integrated into the adjustment mechanism, eliminating the sag of the Nova 7

[@TrekBuilder]

Hey Techne, excellent video as always. Not sure if you pointed this out, but another drawback(correct me if I'm wrong) with the Nova 7's is that you can't load any of the recently added presets via PC to the 7's either. I think that option was only capable with the Nova pro's to the basestation.

[@o0wildy0o]

Even the nova Pros aren't true parametric EQ on console when saved to the dac those profiles are just still graphics Eq they made for the pro with the same names as the sonar parameric Eq for pc, nova 5 and astro a50x at 380£ are only two current headsets I know that can save them, surprised he didn't make a bigger deal about that in this vid. At 130£ it's a no brainer over the nova 7s now

[@fast0025ify]

​@@o0wildy0o Even the Astro a50x can only download parametric EQ presets on PC. If you're only on console you have to use the mobile app. And the app can't download Eq presets. So you have to make your own eq's.

Yeah it’s kind of a niche feature but once you get used to it like I did with my old Arctis 3 BT (that was an aux cable and Bluetooth duel input style) it’s hard to go back to other headphones.

[@brandonfrost9801]

Not sure if you mentioned but the Bluetooth version is also bumped up on the 5 to 5.3 from version 5.0 on the 7’s. This is good news for the 5 especially with app support you are getting better stability

The 5x’s app will be able for you to tweak presets and change sounds like footsteps for console!!! The 7x for me was a bit underwhelming, I’m used to a bit more bass and sound like the Logitech g935 which I previously used. The clamping force was also too loose for my head even on the smallest size. So altogether i’am going to try 5x.

Did u try the 5 allready?

[@smizzle_]

@ll-9994 yes they are so much lighter, will be keeping them

[@evilkamatis542]

I just bought Nova 7 last year lmao. This is cheaper and how is the mic and battery better than the 7s. God damn it.

[@suniiun1400]

I got them early this year, so yeah we are cucked

[@abeldeleonposadas2647]

Arctics nova 7 vs Pulse explore who wins?

[@Akeldama626]

Bet the 7s will come out soon with updated version with the new mic

[@mankvlpwnz]

Can you turn off BT on Nova 5? Or it's on every time you power on the headset?

[@emanuel.mayersss]

Is there a way to switch between profiles from the headset itself

[@alphagameaz]

Which one is best now nova 5 or nova 7? Which i need to buy

[@duarte366]

It depends on your needs and what you want! But I guess you didn’t watch the video until the end!

[@TheTechne]

I made a video about this

[@zgirl2456]

my arctis 7's just broke. i'm thinking of getting the nova 7's is the so7nd similar to the old arctis 7's

[@kokowidiarsah3968]

Can we use usb-c as a wired audio connection?

[@PureRiff]

No wired option on the 5 might be dealbreaker. Does anyone know if 5’s can charge and connect wirelessly at the same time? A combination of the 5 and 7 would be the ultimate gaming headphones.

[@severussnapeus3607]

Did you find an answer? I'm wondering the same.

[@PureRiff]

@@severussnapeus3607 Yes, they can be charged while being used wirelessly.

[@josephdebenedictis3215]

Can you do best wired headphones with no mic pls. I have been searching for one but I don’t know which one to choose and also I have a yeti microphone and I would like to use it again with a great headset

[@crownjuul7715]

Depends on your budget. If you can afford them my beyerdynamic dt 990 pro’s are the best headphones out there. Otherwise audio technica and Sennheiser make good lower end headphones.

[@yetzzzzz3603]

can you still have a review for Bloody g501 gaming headset? thanks
