Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Omni Review: For Multisystem Gamers

The headphones enactment conscionable arsenic good for euphony and movies, which is wherever I heard the biggest upgrade from the older Pro model. There's a bully richness, peculiarly with the EQ presets for euphony applied, that you don't get connected astir wireless gaming headsets. Like the fancier Elite, the Omni enactment hi-res audio wirelessly, different upgrade from the older Pro model. I inactive person doubts astir whether it's really utile for gaming, but I usually perceive to euphony portion I play games, truthful the benefits are determination regardless.

Switching backmost and distant betwixt the Omni and the overmuch pricier Elite, I tin decidedly perceive the difference, but it’s subtle. The Omni don’t person the aforesaid spacious soundstage oregon delicate details arsenic the Elite. This stands retired much listening to euphony than it does gaming. But erstwhile I person 2 oregon 3 sources moving astatine once, I don’t consciousness similar I’m missing thing utilizing the Omni implicit the much costly Elite.

Feature Packed

Multisystem mixing is the cardinal selling constituent with the Omni. Like the different Nova Pro headsets, it comes with a dedicated USB hub for inputs. You tin premix up to 4 inputs, up from 2 connected the Pro model, but I conflict to travel up with scenarios wherever it's genuinely needed. The astir analyzable communal concern I tin deliberation of would beryllium a console for gameplay, a PC for Discord dependable chat, and a telephone oregon tablet for euphony implicit Bluetooth. The Pro can’t grip that setup, but the Omni can, truthful if that sounds similar you, it’s worthy the outgo of the upgrade. The microphone volition besides output to aggregate destinations astatine once, truthful if you request to popular into proximity chat portion connected a Discord call, you tin bash that.

SteelSeries besides made a constituent to stress that this microphone, present omni-directional, is simply a large betterment from the aged models, but that’s much of a acquisition for your friends and chap raid members who person to perceive you. The Omni, similar the Nova Pro and Elite, dependable importantly cleaner and crisper than astir gaming headset mics, though I inactive deliberation the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro is simply a spot sharper. Both bash an fantabulous occupation of filtering retired coughing, seat scooting, and the occasional canine bark.
