Turtle Beach Headset (the definition of epic)

Post by Wizard »

This headset is pretty epic. It's a Turtle Beach P11 USB headset that works with xbox, ps3 and computers.

The really cool thing about it is that it has two sound devices that you can configure. So what you do is you set the first sound device (the one that uses the USB) to 'default communication device' and the other one to 'default sound device'. Doing this will make it so every chat program on your computer will use the communication by default and all your other stuff will use your default sound device by default, allowing you to balance the game and teamspeak or w/e else you're using. Pure genius.

The 'set default communication device' is just awesome. I got it for $70 and it's a really good deal. The P21 headset is also good but it's like $30 more and all it has that the P11 doesn't is that it has a little bit more noise cancellation and sound boosting. Windows already has most of that integrated into its overlay and you can get to it by going to your sound (bottom right), right clicking it, clicking Playback Devices, and Enhancements tab. I usually use Room Correction, and Bass Boost

not sure if i'm judging this based on its look or not but it looks very uncomfortable after long periods of time, + it's more expensive. Other than that the 5.1 surround sound sounds cool.

I can sit here all day without it being plugged in, until 7 to 8pm-ish, usually leave it charging all night. That's generally around 10 hours, as listed. When it has an hour of charge left it'll beep at you every once in a while to plug it in, and you can still use them when you do. Never had a problem with this set of headphones, and I'm not particularly gentle with them xD
