You ever tried with a beanie on? Its no problem at all for sound quality I will tell you, maybe gives the base a little bit more air to flow, so thats nice.
@@unseenorheard Clearly. But perception is reality, and what he's portraying is that he's listening to headphones with a beanie on, which just doesn't make for reliable representation. Hence why people find it hard to take this video review seriously.
PS5 3D Audio is compatible with any stereo-based headsets or earphones. The technology used to create the audio soundscape comes from the PS5, rather than the headphones.
That's the information I was looking for! Knowing Sony I thought there might be an arbitrary lock out for 3rd party headphones if they aren't paying for a "security chip" or something like on wheelbases and wheels. Thanks. 👍
I haven’t heard one person say something bad about the dual sense. I just got a ps5 and I agree, it’s probably the coolest part of the new system. It’s like the controller is alive
Well a little bad thing about it is that we don't have round ears and the part of the headset that goes on your ears are round I don't have the pulse 3D headset but that was the information that I got
It makes sense on headphones - and I think this is what Sony were going for and focused on - but not TVs and expensive audio equipment. From my usage it sounds pretty terrible on unsupported content and just passible on supported first party content. I'm just getting a bit annoyed they just didn't pay the royalties to get atmos or DTSX support, same goes for HDR content that largely just uses HDR10 and nothing beyond that such as DV, etc. I have an almost 3 grand sonos setup with rears and a sub and the 3d audio makes it sound like a 5 dollar sound bar 🤢.
@@insertnamehere8723 can the 3d audio be turned off? I've just ordered a ps5 today and already have a sonos system - arc, rears & sub, and you have got me concerned now that the sound isn't going to be great
@@TheNoisytrev it can be turned of, don't worry. I mean, It absolutely can sound bad with A) unsupported content and B) setups it wasn't intended for (i.e. 5.1 or higher outputs) as all 3D audio is doing is trying to get the best out of them by simulating or faking more channels. Like I said, it works best and makes more sense with headphones or from the TV itself by trying to get the most out of them and simulting more channels, but isn't great or intended for your application because you absolutely have the channel bandwidth headroom and can sound thin. All I will say is that 3D audio definitely has it's place with their pulse headset or other headsets, but stick to Dolby or DTS otherwise. I hope this helped and wasn't too confusing 🙏.
@@insertnamehere8723 thanks for the response, no I get what you are saying, I will make sure I have it turned off, don't plan on using a headset anyway
The Arctis 7p comes really flat sounding out of the box, but when you set it into Immersion EQ it sounds amazing, bass is punchy and the highs is crystal clear plus with the 3D audio it's amazing, specially when you're swinging through buildings on Miles Morales.. i get surprise to the subtle nuances to the surrounding.
You don't really need the Pulse for the 3D audio. Any current headphones will be able to support it. The only difference it has is the EQ you can use on PS5 that's it .
@Opinion Man I've personally never seen anyone say that. A lot of people are amazed by it and some people are not... so yeah I don't know, maybe you haven't adjusted it the way you like because sony recently released an update which improves things a lot, what do you think about that?
@@2ndaccount197 Well i used it for my pc and it sounds decent, but i recently bought the the new Sony WHs. They were 200 dollars more, but I plan to use them over the pulse. Then again the WHs are less comfortable than the pulses.
@@deantzu he’s not ashamed of it. He’s shown it before, it’s just comfortable for him. My bro has hear but he still wears a beanie bcuz he says it’s very comfy.
I almost bought a new headset with my PS5, but held off until I heard how my wired Hyper X Cloud set sounded when plugged into the controller. It completely fits my needs, granted I haven't played more than a few games with them, and nothing multiplayer, but it works quite well and surprised me.
That's a lie. I have had both since launch and have yet to experience this "3d audio". You most definitely are imagining what you anticipated. The audio sounds the same as it had always sounded 😑
Younger people may not remember this but the brand Sony used to be a Hi-Fi purchase. The quality they used to produce were considered high quality and sold at a premium as well.
Easily 7p destroys the pulse , I use this over my Astros . It feels nice and light and I like the sturdy design , laying down playing is one factor for me lol gaming late and playing lazy style . 7p is nice . Pulse I just feel it will snap if ur reckless
*PRO TIP: The Arctis 7p has a USB-C dongle that blocks your USB type A port in the front of the PS5... If your like me, and prioritize the slower Type-A front USB for controller wired support etc... This makes the Artics a no go...
@@tohuss you can, but the controller pass through losses the capability of the 3d audio, back to 2 channel stereo. The input for the controller uses the 3.5mm headphone jack. (at the time I posted this at least)
5:46 trust guys. You don’t wanna get it. I’m literally using them right now and they are really uncomfortable. They push your head together and are itchy and just very unstable in your head. Don’t get the Arctic 1 at all
Steel series literally just took the Arctic 7's, made them white, and advertised it as for ps5 with the same overpricing as usual Also why TF do they still use usb type A???
@@noodles6841 I haven't. Atlus mentioned interest in a possible remaster of the previous persona games in the near future so I'm thinking of waiting. I'm still on P5R, I've put in 112 hours and I've just beat the cruise ship palace. Also, can't wait for P5 Strikers
I bought the PS5 at launch and I bought the PS5 Pulse headphones today lol my patience is strong lol I bought it at Best Buy which is sitting on their site
I have the Arctis 7Ps and I love them. All you need to do for setup is plug the adapter into the console and turn the headset on. They’re also very comfortable.
I got the G435 as a bundle with my ps5 yesterday. It’s actually really good. Only downsides are it doesn’t link well with ps5 as it doesn’t automatically switch between headset and tv, and it doesn’t show battery level as far as I know. Recommend for the price though, 70 quid I think
My main concern with pulse 3d is the build quality. I'm hearing more and more cases of the headsets breaking after a couple months of use due to the cheap plastic material that Sony is using for these headsets
I'm on my 2nd Pulse headset and can say they hold up very well. Only reason I'm on number 2 is because I raged and slammed my first headset and then threw it at the wall. 🤣
I use the optical output of my tv for the steelseries arctis pro and it sounds so much better than over usb, it has now really Hi-Fi quality and better surround.
Hey there, I’m a fellow Arctis Pro Wireless owner named John. It’s my understanding we can only get the maximum quality of the headsets audio through the HDMI splitter with optical output work-around, is that correct? And with that, the option for 3D audio is grayed out when I have it set up like this. I did see the option to turn on 3D audio when I had it connected via USB but the audio overall sounded like garbage. Could you tell me more about your setup?
@@JohnLewis-rt1tu I use the USB option . Also out the box the arctis pro wireless headset sounds like garbage but are capable of putting out some amazing sound . You have to mess with the equalizer to make them sound great . That plus the 3d option then you are golden . There are plenty of forms on reddit where people have done the foot work for you and have the optimum equalizer settings
I have had the steelseries arctis pro wireless for a couple years now, probably won't replace it for many more. Long battery life while the other battery is charging in the hud, takes 15 seconds to swap out. Can change the bass and treb and whatever you like to fit your needs.
Yes! Why isn’t this out there. Platinum has better drivers. Does it out perform the 3D pulse or not!? I’m wondering if Sony is scrubbing the net so they can sell Pulse kits, haha
Sony makes some of the best audio headsets in the world, I only wonder how great a premium priced and high quality PlayStation audio headset would be if Sony put their best foot forward? 🤔
I have their platinum headset which is their premium headset for the PS4 and it sounds pretty darn great. And to be quite frank, it sounds better than these new pulse ones designed for the PS5. So they can really make a great product but I assume they opt out of it because it’s probably not in their best interest because it’s a niche item and it will sell poorly I think. But an updated premium headset would be a massive win.
They are plenty in store where I'm at. Let me know if the pulse 3d are any good and worth buying. I have beats studio, sony xp headphones and turtle beaches do i really need these?
Yeah the headband on them is the most comfortable headband I've ever used but the sound could have been better compared to others but the 3d audio on demon souls is something man , for other games tho not so much probably cuz they won't be running the same engine and it only allows the 3d audio on pulse. You would probably have to get an amp for the steelseries.
@@reenachauriya4931 all I know is my astro A40’s suck with the sound compared using them on my pc. But my wireless JBL headset sounds real good on the ps5. Can’t even hear foot steps in Cold War with my Astro’s.
@@reenachauriya4931 the only reason I’m getting the Arctis 7p over these is because apparently they’re way more comfortable to me and I thought that’s worth 50 more bucks since I’ll use these for years
It’s more accurate to compare it to the platinum headset not the gold because the only similarities is the price point the platinum is the one with 3D audio like the PS5 headset.
One thing that drives me crazy, is the volume limits on most headsets. Some at least have a volume control on them, but when they don't the sound slider on console in my experience is set kind of low for my liking
I’m wondering why nobody talks or mention why the “PULSE” technology of this new Playstation headset is complete absent. The PS4 PULSE headphones were called PULSE because the headset had a vibration pulse that made the headset pumps with every bass sound. I’ve seriously though this new headset had it too, but it appears it doesn’t.
Fine-tuned for 3D Audio The PULSE 3D wireless headset has been specifically tuned to deliver the 3D Audio made possible by the PlayStation®5 console. Powered by Tempest 3D AudioTech, the PS5 console can put you at the center of incredibly immersive soundscapes where it feels as if the sound comes from every direction. Pretty sure they just changed the name of the "pulse" tech to "Tempest 3d audiotech"
@@bradlyj9760 I’m really looking foward this new 3D audio on PS5 and what this new PS5 headset is going to offer. I also own the PS4 Platinum Headset, I’ve purchased it exclusively for the Horizon ZD and Uncharted 4’s 3D audio and It’s great. But I miss the punch the PS4 PULSE Headphones had and that its completely absent on this new PS5 headset.
@@bulloguin I've yet to experience the "3D audio" 🤦🏾♂️ it's the main fucking thing I was looking forward to. The way it was hyped up. Like completely game changing. The fucking audio sounds the exact damn same. But maybe it's because there aren't any true NEXT GEN games yet. Demon souls is a remake so gtfo here with that. 3D audio is REGULAR AUDIO. Don't be fooled. I've owned since day one launch. Played about 6 different games now.
I never used headphones for gaming before. I picked up the pulse headphones just to dive into the ps5's culture a bit more. Now I love them. Especially for cold war online.
Pulse 3D drives me nuts considering it’s just a way to avoid Dolby Atmos licensing fees. Dolby’s sole purpose is audio and the continuation of improving that audio. 3D audio will be good enough but never great.
Just bought the pulse 3d headset here in Australia for $116 through Amazon, compare that with the Arctis 7p at $223, and they were the better option. I have the Arctis 9x which I love for my Xbox, and I’ve used them on my PS4/5, but unfortunately the mic isn’t compatible.
Why does he not have a million or more subs? This my guy right here and his videos are dope he needs to hit a million. Just wanted to give him his flowers 💯💯💯💯
Dude, the best pro tip u have given me is the use of beanie hat then headphones. My ear area and scalp can get sweaty and oily so i think ima buy a ton of beanie from now on and maybe cut holes in the ear area just to get the clear sound through. Thanks man!
