- The Turtle Beach Stealth Pro is supposed to be the ultimate wireless gaming headset, even when compared to the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. But when it comes to mic quality, range, battery life and more, there might be better options, especially for the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro's price.

Man the mic on the Corsair headset just completely blows everything else out of the water. It's in a totally different league of its own.
That’s true. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to make a decent mic. Especially in this price point. However, I returned the Corsairs after two hours because they sounded like absolute trash and I couldn’t fix a couple technical issues. The new TB set is awesome.
I've convinced some friends to get HS65s. We all sound amazing and the audio is superb as well.
@@stelonousI have the wired pair of the 65s. When my wireless headsets are charging it’s my go to..
I would normally agree, but I saw a review on the 2023 version of Razer Blackshark yeasterday. Literally groundbreraking. Blew my mind given Razer NEVER makes quality in my opinion. Definitly refreshing
Yes I have the Corsair CS80 and use them for work. Great improvement over the wired headsets they give us.
I've owned and used the Arctis Nova Pro, the Maxwell, and this, and for my money, this is the best all around headset on the market. My only complaint is that when you switch back to PC/PS5/XSS from a bluetooth signal, I sometimes get a l sometimes get a bunch of static in the sound and have to restart the headset. The swappable battery life being shorter than the Nova Pro Wireless is a non issue, as the second battery is always ready to go. If battery life is over 20 hours, why even bother with swappable batteries unless you're averaging over 20 hours a day with your headset on?
For immersive sound with excellent positional audio, this is the way to go. My ears don't heat up like they did with the Stealth 700 Gen 2, and the clamp is nowhere near as bad. The ANC is very good. Not as good as Bose, but still quite good. Turtle Beach has steadily been patching the firmware to add and improve functionality, such as adding in the second output so that you can use game to chat mix on the PC, and making it so that settings are saved for the next time you use the headset. The app on the phone has worked very well, and I love all the functionality for both PC and console use (anything that is on the PC app is also on the phone app for consoles).
If you're using your headset half the time for music, then you might want to choose the Maxwell, because they are AMAZING for music at the $300-$350 price point, but if you are primarily gaming, the Stealth Pro is quite respectable for casual music listening, and the positional audio is a step up. Like some reviewers, I found Maxwell to be underwhelming for positional audio. Maybe some pairs are better matched than others?
For build quality, I have yet to find anything concerning on the Stealth Pro, using them for long hours many times a week, and they're very comfortable (Although the slight edge might go to the Nova Pro there. Corsair HS80 is also very comfortable, but the sound doesn't keep up.) You can't go wrong at the top with wireless gaming headphones right now (Nova Pro, Audeze Maxwell, Stealth Pro), but this has been my all-around favorite. It makes things like the Astro A30 ($230) look like a stupid purchase (yes, I own these too), because the extra money is SO worth it.
0:23 - Try the Wicked Cushions FreeZe replacement ear pads for the Nova Pro Wireless. Much more comfortable than the stock cushions and thicker so you don’t feel the mic nubs inside the ear cups.
I love the thicker Wicked Cushions earpads. I no longer feel the anc in the speaker.
this
yep, i have the nova pro wireless with the wicked cushions, havent felt the nubbin there since installation
The Nova Pros are a helpless case no matter the earpads u swap to... TERRIBLE audio and even worse mic..
Reviews on this headset is 100% bought, becasue no one with good ears could give that headset more then 3/10 and then im nice.
Great suggestion! Been meaning to get me a pair of those cushions... will report back via Shorts :)
-D.
The built in mic sounds better
For real hold this L headset 😢
Yeah i was about to write this too.
It's a lot more open to room noise etc... To my ears for gaming comms i still prefer the boom.
-D.
@@HardwareCanucksexplain how to charge it on PS5 plz my thing is plugged into the console starts off red then stop let it charge all night doesn't work and also I even tried charging the headset also doesn't work
Great Video! The comparison was great currently I am looking at these 3 options the TB Stealth Pro, Steelseries Nova Pro and the Razer Blackshark V2 pro 2023. Can't wait for that video
My stealth pro won’t turn on is there a way to factory reset it or a fix for it?
I loved the squad rocket launcher reaction, one of my favorite shooters 😂
I'll also give a thumbs up to the Wicked Cushions FreeZe ear pads. I was wondering if you've tried using SteelSeries Sonar to fine tune the sound quality.
Any plans to review the Audeze Maxwell? I absolutely love your take on headset reviews and would love to hear what you think about these.
what do you think about audeze maxwell? i need a headset for adventure games and watching movies
Guys, It's about my PS5, on which I tried 5 pairs of headphones. Razer Barracuda, Arctis 7X, Corsair HS80, Razer Barracuda again and now Arctis 7.
Only on the first pair did the microphone of the headphones work for a while, but as I read, Razer has a problem with the dongle for that model of headphones, in the sense that it disconnects after a while and no longer works wirelessly.
I kept looking in the settings, at various tutorials, etc., but nothing.
I want to mention that when I go into the console settings to test the microphone, it works, but when I go into Call Of Duty, it doesn't work.
Do you have any idea what it could be?
Does anyone know if there will be an HS85 (HS80 with BT)? I really like that headset but need BT to be included.
Should definitely take a look at the new Razer Blackshark, not a huge fan of their products but their Blackshark has been interesting me since it came out as a refreshed version in 2019 I think? It's great. Best mic I've heard in a headset for sure. I saw the bit at the end of your video talking about it, eagerly awaiting it.
Logitech also came out with the G Pro X 2, would love a review of that as well. Definitely worth reviewing, hope to see it soon!
I would love to see a review of the Audeze Maxwell Wireless Gaming Headset. Great video!
What are the chances you will mod these headsets with wicked cushions? I can't go without them . They got pairs that fit anything
Would really appreciate a comparison with Audeze Maxwell since they are so hyped up by everyone.
They definitely blow these out of the water
If there is one reason to stay away from TB it's definitely their abysmal built quality. That plastic build WILL fall apart in a year's time.
I'm not having the concerns with build quality that I had with the 700 Gen 2, and these don't heat up like those did for me. Due to weight alone, the Stealth Pro is more comfortable than the Maxwell (although the Maxwell is very comfortable for the weight). If you are focused on music, Maxwell is the only choice. It's the bargain of the decade for music at $300. If you are looking for a sweet spot combination of immersive with excellent positional audio, the Stealth Pro is better. Also, the Audeze software is nowhere near as nice as the Turtle Beach software. I found footsteps hard to place at times on the Audeze (and I'm not the only one). I think they've been a little hit or miss with the driver matching, and I wonder if it has something to do with them trying to keep up with the number of orders.
For me, the combination of immersion, positional audio, ANC, flip to mute mic (the Audeze one never stayed in place for me - it just flopped around), and software was enough for me to sell my Maxwell and get the Stealth Pro. For music, Stealth Pro is still respectable, but I also have other excellent headphones DACs and amps for music.
I completely forgot about that thing in the earcup about a week or 2 after i got them and only got reminded of it when you mentioned it haha
Will you review Audeze Maxwell? Same tier with TB.
You guys always make amazing videos that are interesting and informative, but I feel like I never get notified about any of them or just never see go ur stuff pop up. Just wanted to let you know.
Gotcha. Now it’s all based on your viewing habits so take a look around the channel and it’ll start popping up more 👍
-D.
can you review the audeze maxwell wireless headset?
A couple weeks ago I got the new Steelseries Nova 7P open box for 130$CAD for work. I can have both the laptop (with 2.4ghz dongle) and a Tablet (blutooth) play at the same time! I can listen to music and have background youtube play whithout affecting the work pc. The 7 and 7P also have a wheel to allow more or less ambient noise to come trough which is nice if you are waiting for a delivery. My only complain so far is that I find them to be slippery on the head as they tend to slip if you bend down to grab a pencil. I can do 3 days of work before charging them (lose about 25% battery each day of constant bluetooth and a couple hours of 2.4ghz). Great video as always!
can u maybe review the arctis nova pro wireless headsets as a long term review? what u said in the beginning concerns me tbh, I've had my eyes on them since their last iteration
I'm looking forward to your full review of the new Razer Blackshark headset. But I would also love to see you review the Audeze Maxwell headset.
As always thanks for the detailed review.
What I don't get is the RTINGS and VERSUS and Youtue reviews always differ so much around ACTUAL Imaging and Soundstage quality... I am trying to upgrade my HS70 Pro but can't find anything... What am I missing here
what about the mic comparison of the Corsair HS80 vs Razer Blackshark V2 Pro 2023?
Have you thought about trying out the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max?
I went from SteelSeries to these and the sound from the stealth pro is just unreal, by far the best headset for sound I've had ever and I also think they are more comfortable, in FPS games they are nuts, everything is so clear and I didn't even download the software yet. Really happy with these, might upgrade the foam, have you tried after market foam? I don't think the build quality is that bad tbh, my only negative is they are heavy but I can live with that for the sound they produce 🤩
You should try the whicked cushions on the nova pro wireless.
I started feeling the nob on the nova pro wireless as well, but then i bought the Wicked cushions(the leather version) and It made It perfect to me.
Dude, once you swapped to the HS80, every other mic in this test faded from existence.
i still love GSP670 as for mic test comparison, why don't you includes that ? ;)
I have a turtle beach Stealth X800 and it was ok but what REALLY annoyed me about it is two hours before the battery goes dead a voice keeps repeating " baddery low" every 30 seconds.
It worked for a few years but now the battery only lasts an hour before the voice returns.
My favourite wireless headset is the SteelSeries Nova 7 as it has super accurate bass and mids and after a little EQ great highs and the imaging is also great. However, I’ve recently become a desk gamer and gone back to using a wired headset and now using my old Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 with the super amp. Already there’s a night and day difference between the Elite Pro 2 and Nova 7. Maybe overall sound quality with wireless headsets have got close to wired, but the imaging is day and night difference on wired. After using my Elite Pro 2 with the super amp, I went back to using my Nova 7 and for imaging I really didn’t like it
After watching a few reviews now about the new Turtle Beach Stealth Pro when they’ve said the imaging is identical, I decided to try it and been using it for the last couple of days and let me start with this, it’s nothing like their wired Elite Pro 2
Overall sound quality is a little better on the Stealth Pro, but for imaging hearing footsteps and overall directional audio the Elite Pro 2 is still much better. I mainly play FPS games, but do play a lot of other games, so sound quality isn’t my priority, imaging is what I care about, so wireless technology compared to wired still have some way to go with imaging
I also found the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro to be very buggy when connected to their Audio Hub compared to the Elite Pro. I’ve had no issues with the Elite Pro connected to the audio hub, but the stealth pro is just so annoying
If you mainly play FPS games and you’re a desk gamer, stick with wired to get great imaging and I love my Elite Pro 2 with the super amp
I think Turtle Beach is being way to ambitious with their £330 price. It’s clear their quality control isn’t great before releasing a product as I’ve already read so many bad reviews about connection issues, bugs and more. It’s ok to develop and release a headset with all the bells and whistles and price it high, but make sure it’s all reliable
I wasn't aware of SQUAD until now. I jumped in my seat when the shots started going off. lol 😅😅
Hey! Great video! I would love to see a review with the 2023 version of Razer blackshark. that mic blew everyones minds. I think it's even better than the corsair you used in this video to show what headset mics should be like. Its insane
sucks to make a comment before watching until the very end x)
Yeah the mic on the new Blackshark is REALLY good, but it the noise-gate is overly aggressive by default, resulting in a lot of uneven volume coming from the mic. It's not as clear as the HS80 but is the contender for the 2nd best mic on a wireless headset for sure. Cheers :)
-D.
@Hardware Canucks have you tried the audeze maxwell? Some people are saying its better than the nove pro wireless and turtle beach
I ordered mine and hopefully it arives within a week
I’ve spend just about 2 hours doing research on which gaming headset to get (TB v SS Nova Pro. Hands down best review yet! This was very detailed, honest, and thorough. Overall, I was able to finally make a decision. Thank you!
Nice, so what are you getting?
-D.
@@HardwareCanucks I think the Nova Pro earns my selection. As a decade long Turtle Beach customer I’ve feel like I’ve been ripped off. The products doesn’t last with losing the sound quality, cheaply made, and the support is utterly lacking. Simply just not sold into the throwing money away for a name anymore. Nova Pro has its flaws (slightly) but I think they are going in the right direction and I love the innovation they are bringing to the table.
@@slothking3756 How are they?
@@jkey3835 undeniably awesome
Doesn’t even talk about footstep audio what the fuck do you mean
Am I crazy or do the built in microphones on the turtle beaches sound better than the boom mic? 😅
Hope you can review Audeze Maxwell soon, just to know you enjoy it as much as I do!
Ive been using the same Sennheiser HD598 for 11 years now, and stil works like it was bought yesterday (I only replaced the earcups once)l for $20). Paired with the gen 1 ModMic since 2014 or so, I feel glad I'm not one the people who seem to need a new headset every 2 years because of breakdowns
why isn't S/PDIF a thing on more high end headsets?
this guy so goood with headset reiews. proper details , features, quality, usage ...
please compare game zero vs pc38x
how doo these stack up against astro a50's
where the audeze maxwell review at?
You should get an Audeze Maxwell when they restock next month, was hoping the headset would be in this video ngL when i read the title :c
Hi my friend i have 230$ i need a wireless gaming headset What do you recommend?
What about some Audeze headsets? Would like to see how they stack up.
Yes!!!!! Been waiting on ur review Chris!! Let’s go!!!
You should review the Audeze Maxwell.
I have the nova pro wireless and was trying to decide between the maxwells and these, I think I'm going with the maxwells and I'm going to keep steelseries for competitive gaming that requires positional audio and the maxwells for everything else.
What about the new blackshark v2 pro 2023 or the corsair hs80
Audeze Maxwell, check em out!
Can you compare / review the 2023 RAZER BLACKSHARK V2 PRO's?
Are you going to look into the Audeze Maxwell ?
You need to get wicked cushions for ur nova pro wireless. SOOO comfy and fully removes the issue of the nub. They have cooling gel too and arent fully leather. try them!!!
I'm very happy with my virtuoso XT, what an AWESOME headset that is absolutely in love with it!
I have the arctis nova 7 and I love them hands down. I even got some wicked cushions on my pair. However, I cannot wear them for long periods without my glasses (thin frames) pressing into the side of my head. And now there is a permanent bruise/indent. Therefore, I am looking for another wireless headset with a good mic.
I saw reviews on the new razer blackshark v2 pro 2023 ver. but it is quite expensive at $274.99 CAD before tax. I looked at what corsair was offering, the HS80 wireless and the mic also sounds great but the similar head strap design concerns me as a glasses user.
If anyone got suggestions I would appreciate it thank you
Maybe get frames that dont annoy you? I love my lindeberg. High-end design, but its just the best IMO. Good enough for our Queen in Denmark to lol.
My Nova Pros disconnect like that too. I wear them all the time, and the hump in the ear cup never bothers me. I've had them for about 7 months.
I love the Sound quality on a lot of these headsets. my problem is the mic. idk if it's a windows problem or my soundcard. but it has happened to me for 2 different PCs. Both PCs had realtek audio drivers.
What about the Audeze Mazwell?
i hope you review audeze maxwell soon and compare them.
Looking forward to a review of the razer blackshark v2 pro (2023) as it seems to have one of the best quality mics for wireless
Just browsing some turtle beach listings, looks like they are ambitious with MSRP and then reel it in over time. If these settle at like half of their MSRP i can see them being a solid option
@AmpEdition they are not better than the Maxwell, why you sent them back?
Yeah at half the price this would be a solid deal. The audio quality is surprisingly good for a TB product.
-D.
The 700 Gen 2 had great Audio as well.
Will you take a look at the JBL Quantum 910?
Can we get a razer blackshark v2 pro 2023 review?
These days you can get the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal for around 230$, I would love your thoughts on that one.
the nova pro audio with the custom EQ is sickkk
hi , i have I9 13900K and this Thermalright , and relly , in a room at 24°, in idle i'm at 34° /33°:35° , and in charge ,only 2 P core sometimes at 100° ,no long time , and others core 94°/ 92°/88° ... i think that this airflow is best than many AIO 360 !! Need a good case too !!!
try grabbing some wicked cushions for the nova pro, makes a huge difference
Can you review Audeze Maxwell and do a comparison to these?
For a gaming headset, for me, I need the chat/game balance dial that the steel series offers. I play most games in discord with my family and friends. I need to have that dial to quickly mute or amplify voice chat.
You could try to get some new pads for the nova pros, maybe wickedcushion
Razer Blackshark V2 Pro 2023... Really looking forward! I know that microphone will destroy anybody, but how is the sound quality? :)
Would be awesome to have a comparison review of the Audeze Maxwell against the rest top dogs.🤟
For me, it's mic quality over everything else. The Corsair HS80 has been my daily driver for almost a year now and all my friends instantly noticed the difference when I switched to it. It's also just as comfortable as my old SteelSeries Arctis 7.
PSA about SteelSeries Headsets: The earcup material has the potential to cause your skin to develop a **severe** allergic reaction to it. After using mine for a couple years, the skin on the outside of my ears started to itch like crazy one day, which would then turn raw to the point of leaking blood plasma from the scratch wounds. I switched to a newer model in hopes that I wouldn't have the same allergic reaction to the material but the same thing happened (I should also mention that many others have reported the same allergic reaction happening with SteelSeries headsets).
My Corsair HS80 has been great since I switched to it. My only gripe with it is that the mic side tone is kind of on the low side, even at max volume. The battery life isn't terrific either, but it's decent enough.
mic quality over everything else? u are wierd. dude, mic quality is for only others who are listening to you. U cant even enjoy your own voice clarity, only others can. Whereas if u get a good headset like the Audeze Maxwell, u gonna enjoy the audio quality feeding into your ears with planar magnetic drivers instead of the shitty HS80 audio quality.
it is an awesome headset, only problems I have with it, is the wireless range and no bluetooth
I also really like the HS80, but the sidetone volume is too low. Corsair please fix it!
Funny story I am using the Arctis Nova 7P and I have had a similar allergic reaction for weeks. Well at least I now know what the potential problem can be
I've been using the HS80 for about 2yrs now and love it. When it breaks I'll end up getting another one again.
You should try the Audeze Maxwell. It will make you forget about these two, mark my words
Cool! Thank so so much! Thank you! You helped me!
Nice, but too much for what it is... Check out the updated Razer Blackshark v2 pro.. am curious for mic comparison and bluetooth quality.
Great honest review. Much appreciated. Please do the audeze maxwell next. It's supposed to be the best wireless headset. By a country mile. In terms of sound with a mic that is comparable with the hs80.
Thanks for the suggestion! Will write to Audeze to request as sample.
-D.
@@HardwareCanucks oh, too bad you don't have a maxwell review. Now I’m looking for headphones to buy and I’m choosing between stealth pro and audez maxwell. From the headphones you want a cool cinema (like in a movie theater) sound with powerful bass.
The hs80 has a better mic. I have both, the audeze maxwell mic is passable but in comparison to the hs80 garbage in terms of sound clearty. With the audeze maxwell you sound kinda muffled, but the noise cancellation in the mic is with audeze maxwell way better.
@@HardwareCanucks I could let you borrow my Maxwell for a review if you want since they're out of stock as of now.
@@HardwareCanucks Yes please do a review on the Maxwell. I got the penrose atm but not glad about the build quality and battery life. If the Maxwell fixes that but keeps, or even improves the audio quality. Then it would be a no brainer for me at that price
can you review the TB recon 500?
I used to use Turtle Beach over the years during the 360 days. I went through multipule headsets all breaking due to the band breaking. I seriously hope their quality has improved since then.
My turtlebeach x12s were absolutely bomb proof. Still can’t belief those things survived the constant rage in halo and cod all those years
agree.. had multiple turtle beaches and the quality of the audio was amazing but the product itself would fall apart. luckily the best buy warranty was good for replacing it. the company is owned by mad catz
Never buy cheap turtle beach products back in the day they use to make sound cards and the lower end ones sucked big time and things never changed, its like turtle beach make cheap lower end stuff just to keep the brand relevant in the market at all price points
Doesn't look like it. While Audeze actually addressed the poor built quality of their headsets with the Maxwell, TB on the other hand has done nothing about it.
bye good shit nerds, my Sennheiser OG pc360's lasted 10yrs before my mom threw them out LOL when i moved out my mommys at like 33yrs old heheheheheh had them hidden in garage, didn't want 2 damage them in my loaded car, left them ther for a couple weeks, guess what? she cleaned LOL n just tossed them with my astro 5.8 mixamp!!!! didnt text or call, nothing! unreal!!!! LOL so sad,but im happy my audeze maxwells r coming soon (been out gaming for 3 years now)
So people not use sonar? It's makes the mic like a USB one
I'm looking forward to your review of the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro 2023
Looking forward to the review of the 300 hour battery HyperX one.
Your concerns are legit, I bought 1 turtle beach headset a few years back and it was was tiniest sounding, flimsiest feeling set of cans I've ever had. Definitely a brand for GamersTM that live on Monster energy drink and have never heard a decent pair of headphones.
Yep. They're usually for budget gamers and their quality definitely shows it. I used a couple of their products as backups when I was in my teens and even back then when I was gaming on a $25 unknown brand headset, I knew Turtlebeach were just the poor man's Razer. It honestly pains me to know there's people out there that are gonna buy this headset at MSRP
I'm sure the sound quality is good but $330 good? I'm sure Sennheiser have some good headphones for half the price that will perform just as well, if not better. But I guess people would rather buy something with the word 'gaming' slapped on the box instead
Stealth Pro sounds good and competes in this price range. I had the Maxwell and sold them to get these. Maxwell is amazing for music, but Stealth Pro is better for immersion and footsteps awareness. Throw in the ANC and the better software, and yes, it competes. I have Focal Clears and some decent DACs and amps to listen to music on, so I know what good wired headphones can do. Do these compete with those for music? Not at all. Do they compete with other wireless headsets in the range for gaming and functionality? Absolutely.
Also, the quality and comfort is WAY better than their previous top of the line, the 700 Gen 2 Max.
living in a city I've always dreamed of a headset that is wireless with anc, the only thing holding me back on the nova pros is the steep price, which isn't really a complaint given everything it has
I'm in the market for a new headset my old g933 is dying, I like wireless but I'm considering going wired this time, but I just have no idea what to go with at the moment.
Look at their headset reviews, pretty decent headsets out there.
Thank you for this bombshell review. The comparison we're great. Having watched this I can now make a better informed choice. You are like the Gamers Nexus of Headsets and I'm glad I'm a subscriber.
Nice, happy to hear this was helpful! Honestly I would keep them in my headset rotation if they focused more on build quality and user experience with buttons / volume control / clearer manual on all the features. They are prices WAAAY out of their class because of all the faults.
-D.
Probably out of context, but I wonder if in a near future will be any Asus ROG headsets review and a comparison with these ones, I just don't know why is that hard to find any useful reviews on ROG headphones and would love to know if they are worthy competitors
Turtle Beach was huge in sound cards.Them vs. Sound Blaster.
Way too critical. How about everything works great. Looks, feel, but I am just facing a problem with the sound. When watching movies quality is awesome, but while playing destiny with multiple things happening on a battle the sound distorts. I’m going to try switching cables. The only thing I can think to solve my problem
The best wireless gaming headset is the audeze maxwell, when is a review of that coming out
I have the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen2 and it was fine for about a month but bluetooth is an incredible pain in the bottom to pair and swap between say a PC and the phone, holy crap. And now I have had a lot of issue with the 2.4 dongle, I basically have to unplug and plug the dongle EVERY SINGLE TIME the headset is turned on. The headset is heavy but comfortable but the same issue with the controls, build quality and the sound is not good here.
Never again. I think I'll shell out more for the Steelseries, which is what I should have done from the start but decided to try a new brand after my Astros decided to stop working (years of use after though)
I would really love to see a gaming/production in ear earphone review. I've been using a bear dynamics earphone for gaming and honestly I can't go back to these bulky headsets. For long hour gaming and streaming sessions the earphones are do nice. Please do a earphone tier list ❤😇
I've done a few IEMs round ups already :) Check them out on the channel! The main thing for me is long-term comfort with headsets seems to be better.
-D.
@@HardwareCanucks I shall check them, thank you. For me after an hour or so headphone become uncomfortable and sweaty, much prefer the earphones though and my head feels light too.
It's indivisual prefence I guess🤗
Audeze Maxwell comparison please!
So the steelseries ear pads have been reduced to atoms after just 8 months??
What about the Maxwell ?
Please review the 2023 blackshark v2 pro
Hey Dimitry, you should review the 2023 Blackshark V2 Pro, it's very good :D
Hi team, you should try to get your hands on the new Audeze Maxwell wireless! I would appreciate the teams opinion on them!
I had a Turtle Beach headset back I the day. They were awesome. Then the strap broke and they wouldn’t sell a replacement part. A $250 headset rendered useless for a few cents worth of plastic. Don’t think I’d ever buy a Turtle Beach product again. Went to Steel Series and haven’t looked back.
Did Steelseries replace broken parts for you? It’s not usual to sell parts like that for headsets…
I had the stealth 600's for years before moving to headphones + mic, that thing was solid and put me through all of Destiny 1
This feels nothing like the old Turtle Beach headsets. I had the original 700- it was great, but broke in less than a year of gentle use due to brittle plastic. I had the 700 Gen 2- I returned them because I thought they would break (and the earcups got really hot for me). These have all the sound qualities that I loved in those headsets without feeling like cheap junk.
