I bought this headset for my son. He absolutely loves the sound quality along with the wireless feature. However, after a few weeks of use there was a squealing pitch sound in one of the ears, but I was able to exchange the complete headset out for a new one, under the 2 year protection plan. Overall very happy with the product! Thanks

Love the wireless feature obviously, the bass doesn't seem as good as the older wired x12s but still not bad audio with bass and treble boost on. The head phones don't feel very durable but I'm usually pretty carful with my mine. The top of my head was getting sore after hours of use but I got use to it after a few days. Other then that they're pretty nice. Price point isn't bad, I just wish they used more durable material instead of plastic.

My ears get a little hot while wearing them, I think it's just because they don't breath and seal to your head well. If you lay your head on the couch while playing, you will turn the volume up and down if you move because of the volume placement. Other than those two issues, I think they're great. Great sound and pretty comfortable.

These are good headphones, but are fragile. The pair I had did not last long before the plastic adjustable piece broke (maybe partly my fault). I would have like them to be a little more durable, but oh well. I still give the four stars, because they were comfortable and had the sound was awesome.

I recently switched to the PS4 and I was referred to this pair of headset. I love the Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound and the sound comes from all angles. Easy chat and game sound controls. The game sound is a bit bass heavy, but it is fine with me.

This was a gift so unfortunately I don't have access to this. But I have heard that the sound quality is much better than an average headset. It seems sturdy but occasionally has some issues picking up someone else's chat. At random, the headset picks up some static from the voices connected to the chat. It fixes itself at random and there is no clear solution, unfortunately.

The headphones are very light and comfortable. It has a long battery life. The only thing I don't like it they promote super human hearing doesn't sound very well, but it is suppose to improve to hear people coming up behind you and so forth. All in all they are great headphones and would recommend.

I love these headphones. Very accurate and adds a great dimension to gaming I never knew. For the price point these are a great buy. I didn't really have a budget, but the $400 headphones didn't seem like a big jump in quality to justify the $400 price. At $100 these are great.

I have a set of Beats Studio headphones and purchased these for the gaming experience. Ultimately, I believe these are better than the Beats because they simulate surround sound (pretty well) and also have a better range of bass. Well worth the money.

Sound is Amazing

I got these for Christmas along with Watch Dogs 2. Perfect type of game for these headphones. The DTS surround sound envelopes you in the open world. And the music rocks you out. Stealth is great with Superhuman Hearing. Other games sound great too. God of War 3 Remastered will punch you in the face.
On the down side, they feel kind of cheep. The plastic is light and feels hollow. I feel like I have to be very careful when handling them. The head band feels solid and it's padded. The ear cups have good padding but they can be squeaky when they rotate. Don't wear a hoodie with these. It can interfere with the volume wheel on the right ear cup.
I don't play multi-player too much so I can;t say much about the microphone except that it's hard as f' to plug it in.
I'm rating these 5 stars because the sound is truly amazing. I can't play video games without them I just hope they don't break.

I recently purchased a PS4 and was in need of a new headset. A friend has the Turtle Beach 400 Stealth wireless and he said the sound is incredible. So I one upped him and got the Turtle Beach 520 stealth wireless. It's amazing how much you don't hear with a regular headset. With these puppies you can hear people above, below, left and right which sure helps when trying to kill bad guys. Just a bit of advice if you have the PS4 slim it doesn't have the optical jack to connect the headset. You'll need an adaptor which you can get from turtle beach on their website for about $35
