Audio Performance of SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro In the box, the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset comes with a wireless base station, two USB-C (to USB-A) cables, a 3.5mm audio cable, a microphone pop filter, two rechargeable batteries, and a drawstring bag/carrying case. Marketing nicknames aside, the company has definitely done something right, because this is one of the most comfortable headsets I’ve ever worn. In addition to the flexible tension band, the headset has height-adjustable, rotating earcups on pivoting hangers - this rounds out the four points in what SteelSeries calls its “ComfortMAX” system. This new band seems like it will probably hold its shape better than the elastic style (if only because it’s not being stretched back on itself). In the Nova Pro Wireless, the strap is no longer elastic adjustable with velcro instead, it’s a “flexible tension band” that attaches to fixed attachment points inside the headband.
In past headsets, the ‘ski-goggle strap’ suspension style has been both praised for comfort and criticized for its tendency to stretch out over time. Like other Arctis headsets, the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless has a sturdy, rigid headband (steel, apropos of its high-end status) paired with an adjustable suspension strap for a customized, comfortable fit.
This premium pair of cans is among the best gaming headsets you can buy. The Arctis Nova Pro/Wireless is for gamers, audiophiles, work calls…anyone with a commute? This kind of ambitious multi-tasking usually doesn’t turn out very well, but I spent a couple of days with the $349 Arctis Nova Pro Wireless and I might just be convinced. It seems like SteelSeries is trying to do it all with the Arctis Nova Pro/Wireless: Hi-fi audio, travel-friendly comfort and convenience, multi-platform connectivity. The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless doesn’t come with the GameDAC Gen 2, but is instead packed with convenient features such as a swappable battery system that allows for essentially infinite battery life, simultaneous game and mobile audio (via 2.4-GHz wireless and Bluetooth), and active noise cancelation (ANC) with an optional transparency mode. The wired Arctis Nova Pro is hi-fi ready and is packaged with SteelSeries GameDAC Gen 2. The Arctis Nova Pro comes in two iterations, wired and wireless, and sports a brand-new aesthetic, hi-fi-capable custom-built 40mm speaker drivers, and debuts alongside the “official” launch of the company’s Sonar audio software. The latest addition to the Arctis lineup, however, hardly looks like a gaming headset at all.
