Our Verdict
Astro A10
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1
The Astro A10 and the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 are both budget-level wired gaming headphones, so deciding between them will depend on your personal preferences. While both headphones have a good build quality and wired design, the Astro have a more immersive soundstage and a better overall microphone performance. Conversely, the SteelSeries are more comfortable, and their sound profile is more neutral, although it's still leans warm.
