wants to check the quality of sound
puts the headphones on a hat
Ahh yes you cant deny the good cloth remix though
Read this as the headphones were on his beanie lol
Seriously, is it a piss take? How am I mean to take this review seriously.
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.
@@jzea5605 I'm sure when he's not on video he probably doesn't wear a beanie he is probably just insecure about the shape of his head
Guys, he's only wearing the headset over a beanie to record. When he was actually testing, he was wearing it over 2 beanies!
No no no it was actually 3
Y’all made me chuckle good job 👍🏾
Yeah obviously he would take his second beanie off while recording
Bro i love u man i love thay u make me laugh
😂😂
Plot twist: the beanie is part of his head
It changes colour with the weather
Haha
Does he have hair down there?
No, the head is part of the beanie
So you're saying he's a Toad
Reviewing a headset through a hat is like reviewing visuals while wearing someone else’s glasses!
@@certifiedbruhmoment85 he might be a beenie Mando

What about me, I only listen to headphones while wearing someone else’s beanie…
@@kennedythegreatful l
I’m supposed to trust a headset review from someone who wears a headset over a beanie? Really man?
Does he ever not wear a beanie?
Yeah you know, ima switch this video off.
Yeah, this was driving me crazy
Lol I'm sure it's not tested right there on the spot with a beanie. It's all for visual aesthetics.
@@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. 👍
DISCLAIMER: Beanie not included
"The fake news media is claiming there is no beanie! FAKE NEWS!"
Was looking forward to getting a blur beanie
I can’t no more best comment ever 😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️
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
It breaks easily
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
Yeah, but i dont like that trigger resist effect on shooting (FPS) games and you cant turn it off?
@@MrCrandman you can go into your PlayStation settings and turn off the triggers man. Personally I love them but do turn them off for a couple titles
Wait til you get the drifting analog you’re gonna love it
Embrace the baldness Kevin- headphones over a beanie is too much lol
So true lol
Go check the videos 5 yeara ago. You can see his head
@No Fool and you can kiss his head
@No Fool Mangekyo Sharinghan
Lol
I think everyone is more concerned about the beanie being on his head
What beanie it’s his blue hair because it’s a part of his head
Im leaning more towards the Pulse 3D because of the 3D audio pretty much being superior. I really want that full experience on next gen.
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
Well I have the platinum so I still get that in my platinum for ps4
Came for comments about the headphones, none found...
Literally facts
And you found beanie instead.
I’ve been using the normal Arctic 7 for awhile now and it works great with the PS5
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.
Am I able to change the eq settings on ps5 or do I have to do it on pc
@@tylerboulton4624 has to be done on a PC. You’ll have to download the steel series program.
thats wat i hate. I just cant find my good eq settings fore fps games and i could heare everything with my ps4 platinum headset
Can this be done on mac?
@@Listen2Lyrics1 yea should be able to
bruh the camera y’all use it’s too goooooooooddd i love it
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.
I have the same one!
They just added spatial audio for Gears 5, really really well implemented especially in the expansion.
I like the pulse it wasn’t too expensive has good sound, good battery, looks nice, I just wish it had more base.
I was able to change the equalizer settings on the PS5. Must have updated that option.
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.
i don’t have a ps5 but i went to target and picked a pulse headset up in the morning. Me and some guy were there and luckily there were 2z
u can use it on ps4
Is it good?
@@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.
I thought the headsets had a built in beanie.
And here I thought not cleaning my ears out would muff the sound! You learn something new every day!
Great video. I already have sony headphones for watching Netflix,but i think I'll go for pulse now for pure 3d audio quality
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.
Surely because the 3d sound is converted into a binaural stereo any quality headphones with decent sound spacing should work pretty well
I have notice it as well. The pulse 3d does sound soo clear it felt like you are hearing the game from wide and far angle.
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
You can also grab the Arctis wireless pro for ps5. Arctis pro make both these hps shown here sound like a pair of hollowed out trees in comparison.
Ngl this is actually the first time I’ve been interested in a sponsor
I enjoy using my pulse headset with my ps5. The sound control is really good and it’s very comfortable.
I bought the headset day 1 and love it. Can hardly feel the headset on and feels good even when using my glasses.
Yes when I test out headphones I always make sure I have a beanie on that covers my ears.
I laughed 😂 when it transitioned to the ad and he wearing another colored beanie
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.
I’ll tell you from experience the 3D audio on the pulse is 100% worth getting it. Works really good with the VR if you have it as well.
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 .
@@pixytorres7117 Yeah of course any headphones can support 3D audio, but the thing is there is a massive difference.
@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?
@@hadivazifehdan5596 Well I bought Razer Barracuda X and I have used my friend's Pulse and I don't see any difference to tell you the truth.
@@pixytorres7117 I myself am a bit confused about whether to get them or not, did you test the Pulse 3D on supported PS5 games?
Kevin you need to set up the steel series to immersion eq settings
Is your head always cold, or just hiding baldness?
hes been hiding it for 5 years bruh i really dont get why hes so ashamed of it
😂😂😂😂😂😂
plot twist, theres a giant afro underneath
@@Robert-bf6zi lol
@@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 love the sound of the headset. Especially with fps games. However my only beef with it is it’s connectivity. I believe I can improve it though by adding a usb 3.0 extension cable to get my usb a bit closer to the headset.
Would make more sense to compare it with something at a more similar price, like the Cloud II
I was able to use my A50 second gen on my PS5
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 just buy it and the mic is buzzing do i have to return it to them to fix it?
Subscribed because of the sweater and great review!
I didn’t understand that with the Arctis you have to switch from the playstation to TV when u turn off the playstation?
I want a headset that I can use 50% on gaming and 50% on movie watching.... which one would you reccomend for that? I have a smart tv LG OLED C8
Steelseries is the amazing! I can wear for hours.
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.
There is an eq for the headset now, not sure if it wasn't there before. Got my ps5 last week of October 2021.
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!
How much comfort do you want while your wearing a beanie? Lol
Using the arctis pro wireless. You good with these aswell . 3d audio is no gimmick . Its really does work .
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
Nice video (but loved the smooth and not pushy sponsor part).
Seems like you gave it a thought!
Just walked in Walmart and saw 2 left.. can’t wait to get off and hear how this works 🔥 I been waitin for this since launch lol
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?
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
What about the pulse 3D?
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
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
💯💯💯💯
I have the turtle beach stealth 600 and I'm sticking with it
What I need is the charging stand, didn’t know that would be hard to get its basically impossible to get. I knew I should’ve gotten it before😑🤬
same. I feel you. I feel like a dumbA$$ for not getting it when I had the chance. now its like $70. >=(
Playstation direct has the charging station in stock
@@TheGjergj79 wait, what’s that?
@@ripper1sd195 Sony's website you can buy games,systems,and games from there. If you have a ps plus account you get free 2 day shipping
@@TheGjergj79 yeah just saw, too late on that one...F*** I’ll just wait
I bought the Arctis 7P yesterday and they hurt my ears after playing for some hours
I’m confused on his explanation of the 3D audio, if it’s 3D then can’t you hear what’s in front and behind you? If it can simulate above and below sound, so why can’t they simulate front and back?
if the source is good, and correctly encoded, a stereo headset should do "surround" just fine
What if he had flowing locks like a Prince Charming under that beanie?
Like fin from adventure time
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. 🤣
@@RammSnipe does ur 2nd still work?
@@pro-vk2pd yeah, I haven't thrown these in a fit of rage yet. Lol I have had zero issues with this brand/style of headset unless I induce it.
Can't wait for more color options for the controller
I use my PS VR and most headphones while wearing a beanie to protect my hair from pulling, everyone else may be complaining about it but I appreciate this review as a fellow beanie wearer 💯
Never trust a headset review from a man that listens through a beanie. 😂 Kevin is like The Edge of gaming.
I’m pretty sure he did testing without the Beenie, that’s just his look for his videos
I'm guessing he's balding
@@theblunden2 100% he wears them in the summer...
@@kylev938 why do you care that we care?
@@kylev938 you cared enough to make a post about us caring enough to make a post. Must be slow.
Right when I saw him wearing a beanie with the headphones I paused the video and went to the comments 😂
Same! 😆
I may have missed it, but I didn't notice it being mentioned that you can also use the Pulse 3D headset with an analog plug which won't use battery.
Been waiting for this one
from someone watching this with the 7p, the steelseries is the best headset i've ever used even compared to more expenisve headsets
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
@@teebo5298 im getting mine in a few days glad i got the 7p.
The only reviewer that’s listens thru a beanie amazing 🤩
He must like semi muffled audio quality lol.
I could only hope he is always wearing the beanie it’s is part of his soul at this point lol
It's a part of his head
He just needs to accept and embrace his baldness.
@@certifiedbruhmoment85 True true
I’ve been using a pair of audio technica athm40x headphones with my PS4 - would I still get the benefit of 3D audio with these ? What would you say is the absolute best headset audio quality wise to make the most of 3D audio?
Great video! Thanks a lot
Hey Kevin... how do they feel on top of the beanie lol
Persona 5 royal on the back ground cool
Happy Holidays!
Would the AirPod Max work for the PS5? I’m assuming spatial audio only works for apple products?
That persona 5 Royal in the back tho. ....
Good taste
Yessssss
I got the headset and really love it. The 3D audio works from games to movies with Dolby atmos. If that’s stuff doesn’t matter I’d say skip it.
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 😑
@@MrDionstarrr maybe the games you are playing doesn’t utilize the features 🤷♂️ it’s definitely noticeable on call of duty
I’m playing Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart and I can’t tell what’s different about the audio. Max sound is up too.
How is it when you talk to people online though? A lot of ppl say its bad quality mic
@@toohurt6 true absolutely perfect on COD
Got the PS5 and all the official accessories at launch unfortunately the camera doesn't have a big function yet but hey it is what it is but loving that pulse 3d headset cause I got the Xbox series x at launch 2 days earlier with the turtle beach 700 stealth gen 2 and I find it funny how I like the pulse 3d better which is weird considering the 700s is $50 more.
So i can use my Razer Kraken Tournament Edition?
Love that Persona 5 Royal background, one of the best games I've ever played!!
same
you should play the other persona games if you haven't yet
@@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 really want that headset Superbad. I just want it because it’s new and for the ps5
Me too bro
Seems like the wrong reason to want something
You clearly don’t have an IQ above room temperature
@@RadamesPrime 🤣
Wena wn, tampoco me conti tu vida
Great review thanks!
I have the turtle beach stealth 600 gen 2 they are amazing but wondering if its worth getting these to try them out
I wonder if he wears that beanie 24/7 ??? Like wake up beanie eat beanie sleep beanie....headset reviews..beanie
got the arctis 9 love it, my head hurts after wearing pulse 3D, so i sold it.
Weird
Yeah, I heard that
I own the Sony Platinum headset and I couldn’t be happier.
Would like one but can't find one anywhere. I'd like to replace my corsair H60pro surround headset
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.
Listen kid I don't have much time
Inside Kevin's beanie, there is th-
What what is it tell me please
Hey Kevin love ur channel
Its worth it love it its like being there in the game 😍
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???
Over priced? They're a steal @ 150. They sound great, they feel amazing and they're well built. Not sure what you're complaining about.
@@BabysitterSky read and you will know what I'm complaining about, Clearly you can't otherwise you would have known
*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...
can't u plug it into the controller?
@@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)
My localish Walmart was only place I found them. They had about 6 pair too
0:17 do you have that cold in your house that you have to stay with your cap even when playing on headset?
Lmao part where he has the headset over the beanie .. gawd just show the awful hair line
JB i see you got comfortable with yours lololol 😉
Doing headphone audio tests while wearing a beanie?
Make a headphone beanie. That’d be sick, and it wouldn’t look wierd
So are you wearing the Bennie to prevent ear burn?
Just got the 7p and I'm having a really hard time locating enemy footsteps what floor they are on and the direction in warzone. Im coming from the PS gold headset on ps4. Idk maybe I dont have them set up right
