Hell yeah, I'll need another pair later just for pure sound quality goodness, thanks. I solved it with a pair of Nova 7 but definitely open to more whenever I can

I odered the arctis Nova 5. Heard good things about it and the phone EQ app is a godsend for console usage

So, there's a promo for the 5X/5P on Amazon atm for 99 Eurodollars - are these any good ? How's the sound - but more importantly, are they durable ?

I'm using the pre - Hewlett Packard acquisition hyperx cloud Alpha connected via a SB GC7 to my PS5 and I'm constantly fiddling with the audio settings since I can't find the "right spot" , plus, the GC7 has also some minor crackling/static.
Couple that with the fact that I'm getting tired of cables and...I'm looking for a new headset.

Cheers

It sounds really good i love it. I found a custom IQ settings on youtube and im using that one. Its crips, detailed and can get pretty loud. It lasts long and charges fast aswell. This headset is a steal for that price

Appreciate it Lui !

What headset/headphones were you using before the Nova 5 ? I've been really satisfied with my cloud Alpha for the past 4 years so i hope that the Nova 5 are AT LEAST as good.

Also : what platform are you using them with ? There's 3 versions available (5, 5P, 5X) and i don't know which one to get - i know that the 5X (for the xbox) work and are also compatible with the PS5, but, why bother with the 5P(laystation) in the 1st place ? i don't quite get it...The 5X also feature an on-headset chat mixer which is missing from the other versions but i don't know if it works on the PS5.
How loud do they get ?

Thinking of getting them hence the questions

Thanks man

I had a cloud 2 and also have a sennheiser HD599. Just get the 5X. All 3 is the same but the X version is compatible with everything, the other 2 is not compatible with xbox. Im using it on PS5 and on PC. You can turn off the volume limiter in the phone app or in the pc app and that makes the headset even louder

It was meant for you Giallo Corsa just forgot to reply

Since this thread is getting resurrected anyway, I would recommend to anyone looking for wireless headphones around $120 USD to take a look at the Asus ROG Pelta. I think they are a steal for the money and compare well to the Asus ROG Delta II since they use the same drivers. I also own a Nova Pro and had Astro A50x and I think the Peltas sound just as good if not better, plus they are more comfortable for my head and noticeably cheaper.
