The new SteelSeries range under the “Arctis Nova” banner have had a good showing thus far at the Cottage.
But up until now its only been the wired models we have looked at, the Nova 7 changes that. Wireless headsets are a complex beast.

This day and age it seems we all have more than one set of headphones. From an everyday carry set of earbuds to an all singing, all dancing set of headphones for home use.
