Hi all, hope you're well. Looking to get a new gaming headset, done loads of YT reviews but yeah wondered what everyone using? Must be wireless, i hate wires. my two im looking at are the following - Nova 7 Gen 2 or Arctis Nova Pro

only thing people saying is the mic is bit.....meh...on them. apprently the Steelseries 3 & 5 had great mics.

I've been using Arctis 7X for a number of years now and sound wise, they're brilliant. Nice features like chat/game sound balance and EQ presets. My one gripe has been the retractable mic where when fully retracted, occasionally doesn't pick up. Given how rarely this happens though, I've stuck with it purely based on the sound quality and connectivity.

+1 for Arctis 7, had mine since 2020, replaced the earpads twice as I use it for both work and gaming. Extremely comfortable to wear for hours at a time, great sound and nice long wireless range too.
