Multi-System Wired Headset

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 connects through a 3.5 mm jack to any device with that port, including PC, Mac, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and mobile. Weighing 236 g or 1.2 lb, it uses 40 mm High Fidelity drivers built on the Nova Acoustic System. The headset is new and finished in white.

360° Spatial Audio And On-Board Controls

The Nova Acoustic System delivers 360 degree Spatial Audio that is fully compatible with Tempest 3D Audio on PS5 and Microsoft Spatial Sound. Sonar Software adds a 10-band Pro-grade Parametric EQ and AI-powered noise cancellation for the microphone. Volume and mute are handled by on-board controls, so no extra software is required for basic use.

ComfortMAX System For Long Sessions

The ComfortMAX System provides height-adjustable, rotating earcups with AirWeave memory cushions and a stretchy band that keeps the weight off the head. Buyers who need wireless freedom or Bluetooth audio streaming should look elsewhere, as this model is wired only. Anyone who prefers a USB or wireless dongle connection will need a different headset.

Questions about this item

How long can I wear the 236 g headset before the ear cushions become uncomfortable?

The AirWeave memory foam cushions and lightweight 236 g design are built for all-day comfort during extended gaming sessions.

Does the 40 mm driver setup generate noticeable heat or fan noise during marathon use?

The passive 40 mm drivers have no active cooling, so the headset runs silently and stays cool even after hours of continuous play.

Which port must my device already have for the 3.5 mm connector to work?

Your PC, console or mobile device needs a standard 3.5 mm audio jack to plug the headset in directly.
