Base Station (Nova Pro): Included with the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for Xbox is the Base Station audio/control hub. The hub gives you the ability to simultaneously connect two different gaming consoles to its dual USB-C inputs. USB Input 1 is a dedicated connection for Xbox Series X and Series S, and Xbox One. USB Input 2 can connect to PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or Nintendo Switch. The Base Station lets you instantly switch between platforms using the OLED on-screen menu.

It also contains a 10-band equalizer to easily adjust the sound at 31Hz, 62Hz, 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, and 16kHz. If playing on an Xbox or PC with Sonar software installed, you can adjust the ChatMix with the control wheel to dial in the right mix of game audio and voice chat. The main menu also includes adjustments for Surround Sound, Gain, Sidetone, Mic Volume, and Mic Mute.

Nova Pro Acoustic System: The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for Xbox headset delivers the ultimate gaming experience with the Nova Pro Acoustic System. The custom-designed 40mm Premium High Fidelity dual-diaphragm drivers provide clear high frequencies, detailed midrange, and thunderous bass. The available 360° Spatial Audio puts you in the middle of the game, and allows you to pinpoint your opponent\’s position as you choose your next move. The downloadable SteelSeries Sonar Audio Software Suite lets you adjust the sound to your liking with a Pro-grade Parametric EQ. The system is also fully compatible with Microsoft Spatial Sound and Tempest 3D Audio for PS5.

Active Noise Cancellation/Transparency: The headset features Active Noise Cancellation to shut out distracting ambient noise, letting you hear only your gaming audio. The 4-mic hybrid ANC system picks up the noise in your room and cancels it with an equal-but-opposite audio signal. All that\’s left is the sound of your game, your opponent, and you for a more submersive gaming experience. When you want to stay aware of your surrounding, you can switch to Transparency Mode with adjustable hear-through levels. To toggle between ANC and Transparency Modes, just press the headset\’s power button once (ANC) or twice (Transparency).

Dual Wireless: The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for Xbox communicates with your gaming consoles wirelessly through the included Base Station. It offers Low Latency 2.4 GHz wireless gaming with a range of up to 40 feet, plus a Bluetooth 5.0 mobile connection with your smartphone. Bluetooth can be powered on/off independently of the 2.4 GHz wireless signal by pressing the Bluetooth button on the headset. Dual Wireless (2.4 GHz and Bluetooth) allows you to mix game and mobile audio simultaneously. While connected via Bluetooth, you can listen to music and make and take phone calls.

Wired Gaming: The headset can be used in a wired configuration, if desired. The included 4\’ audio cable plugs directly into the 3.5mm audio output of your gaming console or audio player, and into the 3.5mm audio jack on the left earcup.

Infinity Power System: The Infinity Power System keeps you in the game with two interchangeable 3.7-volt 700mAh batteries. One battery fits inside the right earcup (under the removable plate) while the other charges inside the charging slot in the Base Station. Each battery gives you approximately 22 hours of 2.4 GHz wireless gaming, and approximately 18 hours of dual wireless gaming (2.4 GHz + Bluetooth). Together, the Infinity Power System\’s dual batteries provide 36 to 44 total hours of battery life. With the included USB-C to USB-A cable, you can charge the battery in the headset. The left-side removable plate covers a USB-C port for charging the inserted battery. A 15-minute Fast Charge will provide approximately 3 hours of wireless gaming time.

ComfortMAX System: The headset is designed for long gaming sessions with its ComfortMAX System. The earcups have soft memory foam ear cushions covered with a durable leatherette. The earcups can be height-adjusted, and rotate to fit your head size. The thin film-coated steel headband is lightweight and has an adjustable elastic band that sits comfortably on your head. The elastic band can be raised or lowered for the best fit and most comfort.

Onboard Controls: The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for Xbox headset features the power button, rotary volume control and a microphone mute button on one earcup. The other earcup has a Bluetooth button for pairing with your mobile device.

Retractable Microphone: The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for Xbox headset includes the ClearCast Gen.2 boom microphone, which is fully retractable inside of the left earcup. The flexible 4-1/2" boom pulls out when you\’re ready to begin your game, and slides back into the earcup when you\’re finished. The mic has a bi-directional polar pattern with a frequency response of 100-6500 Hz. AI-powered noise cancelling reduces the background noise by up to 25dB. A foam microphone pop filter is included to help reduce loud plosive sounds.

Software: The SteelSeries GG gaming software (for Windows 10 and above) helps enhance you gaming experience with powerful audio tools. Available via free download, the Sonar Audio Software Suite lets you pinpoint your opponent\’s location before you see them. The Parametric EQ provides separate equalizer settings for game and chat. You can adjust different frequencies of the in-game audio for increased clarity. There is also an EQ for the headset microphone to make your own voice sound better and lower noise. The software also lets you position virtual speakers to your personal preferences.
