"Wow"

Awesome sound quality and super comfortable. Can hear whats going on in the room when no sound playing but as soon as you get sounds it becomes very clear and blocks out background noise.
I have been using it with GT5 and it helps so much to have a clear audio indication when the tyres are breaking traction and the engine noises sound fantastic.
Good cable length and being able to adjust game volume and chat is a feature im never going without again.

Takes a little while to setup but instructions are clear and easy to follow and before you know it its ready to go.

5 stars "Great headset, not the easiest to set up."

This is the best headset I have purchased, I have brought four other headsets in the past. This headset has great should quality, an awesome microphone and great build quality. I only came across one flaw – the padding up the top of the headset is not glued on well and your hair can get stuck in it. Also, it is quite hard to set up on a PS3 but that is not really a bad point. This headset cannot be used as stereo headphones for an iPod, as it uses USB for power. Using with a PC, it is very easy to set up and is as simple as plug and play. The cable is very long which is good for gaming from a distance. The control box is very good for controlling the volume of the chat and game sounds at the same time. Overall, this is an amazing headset with a great price, good sound quality and good build. This will become permanent headset for a few years now! I absolutely recommend getting this headset.

3 stars "Awesome but NOT FLAWLESS"

great headset, as expected. but im very ‘iffy’ on the wiring. it seems to have a loose fitting, and could stop the headset from working in the future. (will update review if i breaks within a few weeks)

5 stars "Great headset a bit uncomfortable"

Great headset just hurts your ears really fast compared to the px21 and seems to be alot more durable then the px21

5 stars "Great sound and Very Light"

This Headphone is awesome. Its not only has a great sound and very light. Flexible and no need to worry about battery, because it's using USB connection as power. Nice!!! Very Like It!!!

5 stars "** Really Great first intro Gaming Headset **"

Have had mine for 3months now and they work a treat great sound and chat features ! also with a 4m cable so can be seated anywhere in most rooms and still enjoy . Anyone who says beware of the cables breaking e.t.c Just aren't taking proper care hang them back up after each use simple ! . These are a must for any level gamer .

5 stars "Awesome quality"

I've been using my P11 headset for nearly a week now and love it.
The mic is clear, the sound that comes through is fantastic and clear.
It's pretty easy to setup on your tv or on your PC, and get great quality from both.
I'd recommend this for anyone who just wants a good set of headphones with a mic.

4 stars "Great !"

Easy to use and set up. No worry about charging or batteries and the cord is super long. Although not as good as the very high end head sets it’s a fraction of the cost. Sound is good and clear and the mike works a treat with no crackle. Extended use does fatigue the ears and the simple mixer on the cord means you can get the perfect mix of voice and game sound. Way better than the in the ear versions for not much more bucks. Great low to medium price gaming head set.

5 stars "amazing"

easy to set up, easy to use, amazing sound, best headset you can get in this price range. A must buy if your into shooting games. the only bad thing I can say is that it hurts your ears after a few hours but thats not to bad

4 stars "Very Clear - No Charge needed"

These work really well for first time users, easy to connect to the TV and Playstation, never have to worry about charging your mic, it doesnt really pick up any background noise, and voice comes out crisp and clear, being able to turn down the chat and game vol. separately is A++ and really helps your gaming.

5 stars "great value for money"

this headset is a great example for an entry model stereo headset by turtlebeach also the value meets well up to its characteristics. i bought this for my cousin and it is his first stereo gaming headset experience ever. very overwhelmed as he could hear crystal clear sound and chat quality that he did not thought existed in the game.

under $90 for a good stereo headset is a must for those that are just wanted something descent, also is only an extra few dollars more than a normal earpiece and is 20X better!

value right here people, enjoy :)

5 stars "Awesome Gaming Headset!!"

I use these while playing MW3 on my PS3. Its a great headset – having the game sounds come through your headset is awesome – it helps you with your game as you are able to hear footsteps ect from all around. I would highly recommend these as a headset for anyone looking!!

4 stars "Good starting headset"

This headset is a pretty good starting headset, can get messy with lots of cords running around, also you will need a red-white-yellow cable because it does not come with any.

Would expect a louder volume from 50mm speakers but its good, can't complain

5 stars "Great cheap headset!"

My first set of headphones and they are great! Before I was using a bluetooth ear piece for chat and these are heaps better. You can hear a lot more sounds compared to the tv speakers and you feel like your in the game a lot more. Good value!

 
 
Review by Gareth on 27th April, 2012
 
4 stars "Decent Cans for the Money"

Bought these on a daily deal.
NB: I am not a raging audiophile…/CK fo­rums

Pretty good build quality – no chance of an arm attachment breaking if you drop these, unlike my last headphones I had.

Sound is pretty good, nice and clear mid to high pitched sounds, bass is ok but could be deeper.
That being said I'm running these of onboard sound on mobo, so I'm sure with a dedicated sound card the sound would improve even more.

Ear enclosures are quite big and very comfortable so they may feel a bit loose on people with smaller ears.

Haven't really used the mic yet but it plays back in your ears well at least.

Overall pretty good.

Review by Steven on 20th April, 2012
 
4 stars "What more could you (reasonably) want-"

Pros:
The earpieces actually go around my ears, not on them, which is great for gaming.
Works almost seamlessly with the PS3, although you may need an aux extension cable to plug the sound cable in to you tv/hi-fi.
Cons:
I've had some issues getting my pc to pick up the mic, but it does work on my parents pc so the problem might be with my pc, just don't be surprised by teething problems.

Still, all in all it's a very nice headset.

5 stars "Excellent headset."

I got this headset during the Easter sale but I would have been more than prepared to pay full price. They feel very comfortable and light on your head which is important to me due to the long hours I can sometimes spend with them on. The sound quality is fantastic and I got good feedback about the quality of my speech from those I played with. A++

5 stars "Comfortability and performance in 1"

Very nice piece of engineering. Extremely comfortable and performs just as good. The clarity of sound from the speakers IS just the best. Have absolutely no regrets in purchasing these.
You want to be the best on the digital battlefield- you have to have the best gear.Turtle beach will lead you to greatness.

5 stars "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!"

This headset is the best headset I have ever used. I can tell where the enemy is on MW3 and it has improved my KD:R by quite a bit. Only problem that it is a bit too big for me but I have a small head so… Yeah

 
 
Review by Logan on 21st November, 2011
 
5 stars "Great"

I don't have a lot of experience with gaming headsets but these definitely give a greater sense of immersion than I am used to so I have absolutely no complaints.

4 stars "Its cool"

Review by Andrew on 3rd October, 2011
 
"Best value for money"

I bought this to use for VOIP calls. Those I talk with all say they can hear me clearly so the microphone seems to work well certainly better than what some of my friends are using. The headphones don't pick up your voice when you are using the mic, so if you're one of those people who need to hear themselves speak you may find you need to talk a little louder when using them.

The headphones themselves produce good sound – I'd reluctantly say they produce better sound than similar priced Seinheisers (I had the HD202 model for years)

A neat feature is how portable they are, they fold up really well and can be tossed into a laptop bag without taking up much room.

However, these do sit on your ears instead of around your ears, after a couple of hours this can get uncomfortable – so I wouldn't recommend them as your primary listening set – but for short bursts they are excellent.

4 stars "Good product"

Good overall product but the twin cables are joined together too close to the plugs, which is far less than the distance of my ps3 and tv.

1 stars "Cheap glue"

The headset has good quality sound.
But the pad on the head set that rest on your head was not glued in properly, which causes your hair to get pulled out by glue.
Took back my first lot of headsets and received a new lot…after a day’s wait for Mighty Ape to investigate.
So after all that, I have encountered the same exact problem with the new pair of headsets. The new set is also not glued in properly which causes my hair to get pulled out once again.
I do realise this isn’t Mighty Apes fault, and that manufacture is responsible for this. But my point is waiting for a period of time for a replacement makes this much more difficult than it needs to be.

I can’t be bothered waiting another day or two for a replacement, and might as well go grab some glue and do it myself.
