WC HeadbandZ Arctis Nova - Silicone Headband for Arctis Nova Headsets

Simple to install, comfortable to wear, and (most importantly to me) *very* secure on the headset. I had issues with the original SteelSeries headband because my head isn't very 'tall', meaning I was forced to wear the headband on the shortest possible setting - with only one hole on either side - to be comfortable. With this replacement, I'm able to have both sides secured with two holes and still have the headphones rest perfectly aligned with my ears. The actual fit with the hole and peg is much tighter as well, so you actually have to exert force to pull it off. The price isn't the greatest deal in the world, but honestly I'm satisfied with not having my headband constantly falling off every time I remove my headphones.

I know a lot of people probably get the message like I did many being returned of the headbands as holes look too small but can confirm installed mine today while it looked tight I held headphones upside down and placed the rubber head band over the slots and was able to line up the hole and pressed the end in with a small screw driver with some masking tape over end of it to prevent me slipping and scratching anything. It required two hands using both my thumbs to get it started then used mini flat head to just press it through the final hole. Then proceeded to do same on other side. Now I have the complete set including the ear pads and the cover plates that was available as well which cover the steel series Battery and charger sections. Hope this helps as I say I did have trouble at first but was just playing around with it to get it started there is videos online when you get the item they give you a guide video which i had seen a few months back. Best of luck everyone who’s thinking of buying them just takes 5 min of patience really but setup looks good. Only thing I will say is steel series original caps I found was bit heavier that’s all as new ones made of a rubber plastic i think.

I'm pleased with the product and the quality seems good. The reason I've not given it five stars is two fold (and I'd probably do 3½ stars if I could): First, the holes for the pins on the headphones are a little on the small side. With the thickness and stiffness of the silicone this made it difficult to attach. In fact, I had to use a tool to widen the hole, as well as to help push it onto the pins. Second, I was quite disapointed that the Mint ear pads were only available for the wireless version of my headphones. Replacement pads is all I really needed, but I wanted to treat myself (birthday) and spruce up my headphones a bit. I was willing to pay more for this brand to have the whole matching set. As it was, I went back to the other brand I originally found (for the pads only) and at least saved myself some pennies.

The head band that originally came with it is garbage and especially the ear cups. Bought the cups about the same time as the headphones as the nub inside was annoying me and went for red as it was the best of the bunch. But it looked weird as the only red part of the headphones. So I've been effing and arring about getting the steelseries booster pack for a while, but that cost £40 for the head band and magnetic caps. But then do these from the same company and now that I've got them they are cool I don't think I'll get the magnetic caps as I think it would be too gamer (lol). It seems like they are made out of one piece of silicone. It's was really fiddly to attach to the headphone as the holes where a bit. But that's fine as I'm not going to change the position and advice people not to as these are reinforced around the eyelets like the original fabric ones. So conclusion- nice head band. Bit expensive for what it is, as I'm sure it would cost pence to make. But if you got the ear cups this is a must.

Fixings hold on to the headset well. Feels like strong material that will last for a good time as a replacement. Not as soft on the head as the original but I wouldn't have expected it to be based on the material.

The headband itself seems high quality, however attaching it to the headset took so much force, and it also needed tools to force the clips around the holes. This is for the nova pro wireless.

Lovely product i wish the headset came with one of these as standard. The item is very comfortable and prevents my headaches which is a plus. Quality is good and value for money there isnt anything you could go wrong for you. Will last a long time.

Great soft touch silicon. Perfect fit, but was hard to put it on. Love the look of it on my headphones. And it doesn’t put more pressure on head. Might even get more of those with another design.

I got the whole customization set for the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. It was very easy to install, they also provide videos through the included QR code in each of the boxes. Cooling pads are really awesome and keep me much more comfortable during the long working from home days. The colors are very similar to the listed photos and they're consistent between the different items in the set. Definitely will be purchasing more of these for my other headphones :)

I purchased a used xbox, the nova headset came with it, it did not have the headband. I purchased this one and it's a perfect fit and works as it should. Very durable, great replacement. My head gets a little damp/itchy where the band sets on my melon after prolonged use though, so if you're a dedicated gamer I would suggest wearing a hat with it or getting the vented one with the breather holes, if your a part timer like me (hour here, hour there) then this headband is for you. Bang for your buck all day.

Bardzo wytrzmała i wygodna oraz elastyczna na plus

Momenteel ben ik tevreden van deze replacement headband, de originele begon wat uit te rekken. De band voelt momenteel ook comfortabel aan. Enige minpuntje misschien is dat het wel wat moeite koste om de band te bevestigen omdat de gaatjes nogal klein zijn waardoor ik nogal hard heb moeten duwen met verschillende hulpmiddelen om de topjes van de headset door die gaatjes te krijgen. Ik vermoed wel dat dit een bewuste keuze is zodat de headset stevig bevestigd is en zeker niet los komt.
