WC StealthZ Nova Pro Wireless & Nova Elite - FPS Oriented Earpads for Arctis Nova Pro Wireless/Nova Elite by GadgetryTech & Wicked Cushions | Sound Precision & Comfort for FPS Games | Black

First, I’d like to thank Wicked Cushions and Gadgetry Tech — both are incredibly creative teams producing excellent products. I absolutely love these pads. They noticeably enhance the higher-end frequencies, making them ideal for FPS-focused or competitive gameplay.While they are not the best choice for heavy bass, especially if you’re coming from Wicked Cushion Freeze pads or stock pads, the trade-off is improved clarity. Even with EQ adjustments on consoles, the bass won’t fully match that of the stock or Freeze pads, though on PC, using software like Sonar or other audio tools, you can get closer to that original low-end sound.

i follow joe on youtube, ( maker of this pad) and across the years? i have always valued his opinions and seem to agree with his opinions on headsets and pads. I was very interested in this pad and it delivers on everything he set out to make. I use it on the nova 5 and from a comfort perspective it really us an upgrade over the stovk pads which are soft, but but a tad bit to small on the width and hight. this new pad is an upgrade both ways, now my ears fit completely into the hole and does not press on any side. big win. the material is more velour i think but breaths more than the astro velour so my ears never got too hot and had to take off the headset after my two hour game session, now whatever eq change from the pad is easily fixed by the eq on the steel series app. . in conclusion very highly recommend! well worth the money.

These earpads alongside with GadgetryTech's EQ profiles for Sonar make me feel like this is a different headphone. The sound is more airy, and the earpads are soft and comfortable. The comfort is a level up, as I have the leather pads and the freeze gel ones also and these are the most comfortable to wear.I really enjoy the sound with the EQ and its bringing me much more enjoyment for this headset.

They look comfy, and they TRULY are, the stock pads on the Nova Pro Wireless were not that bad, at least to me, but I bought these just to try them, the noise cancellation is not that good tho, I can hear everything around me but that is not a problem for me, the quality of the material feels good, the size, my ears are medium so it fits well.I like them and would recommend them.

Wish I could give it a 4.5 review. It is almost perfect. Im coming from the arctis pros and bough the nova pro and put these on before using the stock leather cups. My comparison comes from using fabric for the cups.The pros are the sound stage. Using this while playing apex (and using a mix of the EQ provided in the description) is insane. I was hearing steps so far away it literally took my brain to realize how far they were due to the bump in the 1-2k area. You definitely need to tweak the EQ to your personal preference but the suggested EQ is a great place to startThe only reason it loses .5 stars is the heat. The material is hotter than fabric/mesh that comes with other models. It may be cooler than the leather. It is extremely comfortable though!

Nice and soft. Great sound. Easy swap out. You do lose the noise canceling so be aware. The YouTuber that helped create these does not hide this fact.

These a very comfortable. I have the Wicked Cushions freeze and like these even more. They fit great, have sound profiles for sonar that work great. They look good, breath well, and while they do not have the cooling gel like the freeze, my ears do not get hot. Gadgetry Tech and Wicked Cushions did good with these.

I just got the Nova Pro Wireless for Christmas and I was ready to return them after a few uses. The ANC bump hurt my ear after 30 mins of use and I was completely disappointed. I did some last ditch research and saw a company called Wicked Pads made replacement cushions. I did a bit more research and stumbled upon GadgetryTech YouTube channel and to these cushions. All I can say is wow, they are comfortable, completely get rid of the ANC bump and I can actually hear around me. Great product and great job. Be sure to use the SONAR EQ that was created for this. What a difference!
