    This headset is pretty comfortable and adjustable. The sound is good. I had one before and it lasted for three or four years, which isn't bad for the cost. Be patient and you can often find it on sale for $40.

    These are actually my second pair of this set. I love how it has a little control panel on the wire with different audio settings that you can set according to your preference. Since I'm strictly a PC gamer, the fact that it is PC compatible is really nice. Most headsets that I've seen only connect to Xbox. It has excellent sound quality and noise blocking protection. The only downside to this headset is that it breaks pretty easily, which is why I had to replace mine. Broke them in less than a year. I would highly recommend getting the 2-year warranty for this product so that you can just get them replaced if they break.

    I've purchased this headset before and used it until it died which if memory serves it lasted me a couple years at least. Comfortable with great sound quality, you get your moneys worth for sure.

    I have to admit I was a little skeptical about buying this headset. As soon as I arrived home I opened the box. I was quite amazed at the quality of the product. As soon as I put the headset in my hands I knew that I had made a good investment. I couldn't resist but to plug them right in. Putting them on, I can say they definitely are a comfortable fit. The cushion on the speakers hug your ears in a way that let them rest at their normal state. The sound is incredible! I really enjoy being able to control the game volume, chat volume, and bass volume separately. Its like having a surround sound right on your ears. One thing I was not so much disappointed, but a little annoyed about is the way the headset has to be connected. There is one cable going to the controller, one to the xbox, and one to this separate cable that converts it to the audio cables which is connected to the TV. I know these are all necessary to be able to have the quality of sound that turtle beaches have and I also know that there is wireless turtle beaches, so that in itself could solve the issue I have. The one thing that really irritates me is the sound I get when I am using the turtle beaches and I am charging the controller at the same time. Its a buzzing sound that I hear and the only thing I can do to avoid this is to switch the batteries on my controllers and charge the batteries that way, or just use the other regular, plain headset. I am not entirely sure if the wireless turtle beaches also have this problem, but I would definitely like to know. All in all, I am pleased with my purchase and continue to use the turtle beaches almost daily and they never cease to amaze me. I would definitely recommend these to everyone!

    Great wired headset

    First off, I bought this for my son so that he could play XBox with his friends online and not disturb the rest of the family. His old headset microphone didn't pick up sound and he ended up yelling a lot. This headset definitely solved that problem. Not only does the headset have amazing sound, this headset allows the wearer to hear their own voice as it is picked up by the microphone. This keeps everybody happy. My son's friends can hear him without him yelling, and the rest of the family is happy because they have peace and quiet. The first drawback to this headset is that it has a lot of wire. This is nice for the wearer in that it lets him or her move a significant distance from the console. The downside of that is that it is easy to forget that this headset isn't wireless which usually results in pulling the console off the shelf. I would recommend to those who can afford it, to choose the next model up and go wireless. The second drawback is that the headset comes without all the required hardware to make it work. To use this headset, you will need an adapter that converts the mini jacks to your console's input method. Fortunately, we had the converter that came with one of our learn-to-play guitar games for the Xbox. This wouldn't be an issue with a wireless headset which is why this headset gets four out of five stars.

    This is exactly the quality you'd expect from Turtle Beach. The sound quality is excellent. You can change the levels of game volume and voice chat. You can use it as a computer mic or Xbox mic (or both if you record gaming videos for YouTube like me). It plugs into the regular headphone and mic jacks on you computer and also has a cable for Xbox (or other systems). It comes with a converter so you can also connect game audio from your consoles.

    This is my third headphones I have owned and they work very well. For the price you get what you pay for. My first 2 headphones were the dx 12, those ones had more kick to it and you can literally hear everything and every one around you which really helped me specially for shooter games. If you are a hard core shooter gamer like me upgrade from this ones. If you are in a tight budget like I was get this ones, they do the job though not impressive as the higher price ones.

    Good headset, but the cord connects to your tv or console so as you can imagine it's quite long. Also you usually need an adapter to connect it to your Xbox if you're using an hdmi cable which the box doesn't say till you get home and you're ready the instructions to how to set it up. But overall good sound quality and pretty cheap.

    These are fairly priced and very comfortable. They have great sound quality and I use them on my pc. You can adjust all the features including the bass and they work great for gaming! The cord is extra long so I can move around if I need to get out of the chair for anything. After using other headphones, I wouldn't buy anything else but Turtle Beach for the price.

    I use this headset all the time and it has never failed me. The only complaint I have - and the reason for a 4 star instead of a 5 star review - is that the mic is a bit too sensitive to people on the receiving end. So if your tv is up loud, they will hear everything and it can make it unpleasant for them. Otherwise, great headset. If you push your audio through the headset it's even better.

    Sound from this is excellent. Bass boost adds to COD. Works excellent for COD and allows you to hear exactly where people are.
