  • Just caught your video and have a couple of spots of insight on this headset. Firstly, I recognized the similar issues you posted in this video when I first picked up my headset and was highly discouraged considering I was "upgrading" from the 720s. However, being primarily a PC gamer, I ran the AX Pros through my creative Recon3D sound card and determined that the biggest problem of the headset stems from the mixamp, not the headset itself. The sound card turns the headset from...

  • @masael255 ...something worth about $80 to a headset well worth its price in gold, if not more. It is unfortunate that the decoder box limits the amazing quality this headset can achieve but rest assured that, from my experiences with headphones, the AX Pro is stellar when bundled with a high quality sound card. Also, as the Recon3D can connect optical in and out, I can run my PS3 and 360 through it, still. It is unfortunate that the headset & soundcard will run you $260. Still a good headset.

  • Why should we see your macbook? Are u proud of it?

  • winner sharkoon

  • ax pro  vs sharkoon xtatic 5.1

  • what should i get then a axpro ax720 or astro a40s?

  • @SkeepGaming if you have the money , get the astros if not , get the axpro because it has true surround sound.

  • @SkeepGaming Astros of course, they're THE best

  • i have question 720 or PRO price/quality rate?

  • @onelosti get 720. Better value for your money

  • Man it's hard to find a good headset for 360. I've been researching forever and can't figure out what to buy.

  • What is better turtlebeach x41 for Cod and battlefield 3 OLS answer

  • wait, so u'd prefer the ax720 over the ax pro? please reply back!

  • this headset is better than any turtle beach and is comparable with the astro a40s

  • small drivers?? in each cup theres 3 30mm and 1 40mm most turtle beaches has 1 40mm

  • who the hell cares what colour the amp box is?

  • Dude would you recommend the astro a_40 or the tritton ax pros i have ax pros atm but thinking about getting astros are they worth it

  • i finally made my mind up, im going for apple earprops.... or wtf its called!

    lol

  • who cares about sound quality? i can hear anyone around me

  • WOW THANKS FOR WASTING MY LIFE THE EXACT SAME REVIEW AS THE AX 720'S

  • woah can you talk a bit faster cant quite here you.

  • Review Razor Tiamat when I comes out.

  • got the new edition of the pros and alot of the problems have been sorted,especially the wire probs...

  • @Beadle87 the new edition pros are great with no problems i agree

  • @cryogenicdeamon i think ive eaten my words ! lol,ive noticed a fault when changing volumes,the right ear cup will often go very distorted and drop in volume ! on several occasions the sound has completely cut from right ear cup ! not happy sending em backm tmrw !

  • I'm in a dilemma, should I keep the Sony headset or return it and get the ax pro. I have the money please respond. Thanks!

  • at 5:11 were you trying to rap?

  • Are you gay?

  • Oh my gosh I watched 3 of your reviews and you sound SO ANNOYING.

  • ASTRO'S!

  • By the way, You can put these on your shoulders if you are taking a break !. The earcups are twistable !!!

  • @akaTRENT Hey Trent ! I have bought these today but my decoder box looks different !. It looks like a modem like the ax 720's... Do I have the new or old version of these.

  • Review the Sharkoon X-Tatic

  • I have a pair and to be honest, its pretty disappointing. Terrible sound quality :(

  • these or the ax720s?

  • this sounds exactly like the ax 720 review. except for one remark.

  • after all the negatives u still give it 3 out of 5 stars ? u are a fucking moron buddy...

  • You are the most picky person i have ever had the unforntune of watching on youtube,

  • God your picky. I have this headset and its fine for me I enjoy it.

  • @akaTRENT more like 290 in australian and im not trolling...

  • @akaTRENT I reccomend an update video of the ax pro's as there is a new version out with more features such as twistable ear cups. Also, the decoder box has been massively changed.

  • @akaTRENT hows he trolling by stating his opinion?

  • @iSkEtChyNiNjA Thankyou

  • @akaTRENT how am I a troll? Do you not know what a troll is i'm not attacking you i'm expressing an opinion if you can't take criticism I suggest you learn to because you won't last long on Youtube and once again I apologies if I offended you.

  • @akaTRENT  lol, I agree with ya about the being picky part. but c'mon man...he's just voicing his opinion regarding your 'through' review. that doesn't make him a troll necessarily. Does it?

  • stick past the break? or just skip it

  • does anyone know which version i have, i just bought ap pair of the ax pros and i dont know if they are the old version or the new one... the de-coder box hada a plastic curved cover with buttons and has a stand to it too. anyone know ??

  • @bobalongbobashoba if the decoder box is bigger than the one in this video, it is the new one. This is the old version

  • @pringle2333 thanks :)

  • @bobalongbobashoba no problem

  • @bobalongbobashoba so, which ones do you have? I have the new ones

  • im happy with my turtle beach px5's

  • this guy is on glue

  • should i buy the axpro or the ax720

  • All this guy does is get payed to tell people how great astros are and how they are the best headset. Just because astro are used in mlg tournaments does not mean they are the best. Its like just because mw3 is the most sucessfull selling fps. Does not mean its better than battlefield. (Dont hate its just a comparison. I own both games)

  • @PROJECT939 thank you , i use the AX Pros and their fine

  • He is telling the TRUTH, if you can't live with the TRUTH just don't hate. He's a pro, he knows WAY more than you do and he has tried and reviewed WAY MORE headsets that you have ever owned. So please stfu and enjoy his videos :)

  • fuck you pessimistic shit we want a review not your bias opinion

  • AX 720 WIN

    PRO's SUCK DICK

    Thumbs the fuck UP!!! ;D

  • I call bull I've owned a ton of headsets and this is one of the most solid ones out there

  • this is bullshit. don't listen to this guy. Go with PRO, it's a way better than 720's, doesnt take up any background voices. He's just telling some lie -.- I bet some1 paid him for telling these stuffs

  • @RotanGaming how is the mic on your Ax Pros?

  • @RotanGaming Learn how to respect other people's opinions. Just because you don't agree with him, it doesn't mean he's 'lying'. You have to realise this.

  • @guitarfreak223 Okayy, I'm sorry.

  • this is bs

  • @HammarbySoder how do i make myself look stupid?? go see a doctor dumbass

  • This guy is a fucking idiot you could've gotten the black ops ones which are cheaper and more sturdy then the regular ones. Every cable is braided and does not feel like it will fall apart on you. He also doesn't know how to balance the sound. You can't just take 2 seconds and quickly adjust the sound. When I first got them and hooked them up to my xbox to play some battlefield 3, I took about 2 hours to adjust teh sound. Plus, if you get the black ops ones now, they give you a free carrying ca

  • These things kick the shit out of Astros, I own both. A40's weigh a stupid amount and they lack directionality. I could tell in which direction someone was coming or moving better with any Tritton headset than the A40's.

  • So which is the best headset?

  • @neil182sr the pro's are more expensive than the 720's by about $50... so its really up to you

  • @lsb3340 Thank but i was actually asking which is the best one that he has ever reviewed

  • @Mrgingerbread123 can you say paid by turtle beach forreal

  • its cuz ur a pussy dude, are you gay?

  • If you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all ! smh

  • @VonteDLP101 Its a review XD you can't have a review without negatives

  • I watched this video right before I bought the black ops edition, this review is not accurate. I played a few games and the only con to the headset is the highs(treble) isn't all there, but they sound fuckin great! I'm able to pinpoint where people are walking, the bass is great, take the time to set each channel and you will not be let down!

  • I got the cod ax pros they our good

  • Even after watching this video, I am still getting the pros because it has true surround sound and is just a higher, better quality headset than the 720s

  • I paid 120 so I'm satisfied.

  • It's funny, because the Black Ops limited edition of the AXPROS is only 120, whereas the regular axpro is 160, and the 720 is 130. so im getting the black ops limited axpros (WHICH ARE EXACTLY REGULAR AX PROS WITH A COATED FINISH) for a much cheaper price.

  • I wonder what headset this guy compare with because it must be the best headset ever if the axpro suck in comparising.

  • Oh, and your review was BS and was completely biased toward TB.

  • Astros in the same price bracket? Yeah right.

  • fuck tritton im getting astro a40's

  • does it work for ps3

    

  • @kashboy321 it says on the box at the beginning -_- . btw, its lucas

  • @kashboy321 yes

  • you need your ears check, i have both the axpro and the ax180, and no, it does not compared at all.

    must be a turtle beach fanboy :P

    oh and yes, i own turtle beach too xD

  • Comment removed

  • shitty review, not as bad as he makes them out to be. the sound is really good, plus you can adjust each channel seperately.

    worth the price of admission :P

  • WAT A CRITIC...

  • Please make a review for Razer chimaera!! 5.1 or stereo version

  • fts... i will buy the astros

  • does anyone know about any wireless 5.1 or 7.1 wireless gaming headset for ps3 besides the px5 and astro a40 wireless edition?

  • they do snap easily addjusting the headset all tritton products are built like shit i had a 5.1 tritton back in 2003 was a peice of crap

  • I just about bot these things before I watched this video. Thanks bro

  • ax pro sucks so bad... those who say its good obviously does not know anything about sound

  • I want astros so bad, but my parents say "not worth your money" so Im going to go with the 720's

  • which head\set would you really recomend now ?

  • Wish I would have watched this before buying the ax pros, this review is spot on. Tinny highs, weak mids, and bass falls apart fast. Add the fact that pinpointing sounds is about impossible in-game all means a return trip to best buy for an exchange for me. AVOID THIS HEADSET!!!!!

  • what should I buy? ax PRO or ax 720?

  • i have owned every turtle beach headset and tritton headset besides the special edition ones (Call of duty, gears, ect) i have to say trittion ax pros blow every turtle beach and astro headsets and even tritton 720s for 3 reasons

    1. 4 speakers in each ear

    2. Able to change each speakers loudness

    3. Incredible bass

    this guy is a retard iv tried every headset out for xbox 360 this is by far the best he just didnt know how to setup the sound trust me its way worth it

    ps i tied the 720s they suck

  • @gondorfyen111 Your absolutely right, the ax pros are the best. I just went to best buy to return my ax pros because i dropped them numerous times(warranty), they didnt have any AX PROS in stock so I took some turtle beach dpx21, bad mistake. Going back to best buy and im going to have to wait on the AX PROS to come in..well worth the wait, besides im going to get a set of the sony headsets meanwhile...

  • Don't state it's CONS, It makes people less comfortable with the way they are.

  • @VenzhuHD yes i was so pumpef for the ax720 but then i thought nd said bull shit im buying astros

  • @Mast3rBat3rChief You're crazy. I had the AX 720's and I took them back and got the AX Pros because I wasn't impressed with the surround sound on the AX 720's.. trust me, don't listen to this guy's review... he obviously didn't take the time to set the volume controls perfectly. The AX Pros are an AMAZING headset, but you have to set them up the right way. This is the perfect headset for hearing footsteps in games like COD... it's almost unfair how perfect you can hear where everyone is.

  • 2:21 taking a break....... from gaming....ROFL

  • does the px21 have better sound for hearing footsteps

  • @theLegeNdkillA95 No, Thats not even surround sound, Its stereo, Anything further up the price line will be surround sound now

  • does it come with a plug socket converter thing coz in usa u have 2 pins and in the uk we have 3 pins and i was just wondering if it comes with 1

  • hey trent. i have a budget of $200.. but im not sure what to buy now.. ax720 on amazon is 160$ and axpro is 189$ what do u recommend please answer fast i will order it today :)

  • Somebody is a hater.

  • my mic on my ax pro broke. now i'm savin up for me some astro a40's <3

  • does the ax pro have better sound quality and surround sound than the 720s?

  • use it on a pc with a creative xfi titanium and you have the best headset ever! ive had a sennheiser pc350 and its shit against the ax pro

  • Fuk tht im stillgettin axpros

  • @MrFinalVestige yeaaaaa

    XD

    

  • Everything he was saying about sound was bull. He obvioulsy didn't take the time to set each one so it would sound good. Plus if they feel like they might crack then don't bend them. Also your ears will get sweaty on any over ear headphones. These are the best headsets available he just didn't take the time to use them properly.

  • What's better, Turtle Beach X41's or AX 720, or these?

  • @iEuphonix Ax Pros

  • in summary get a astro headset.

  • Why is the 720 better?

  • @HU55UN1 real souround sound this ine is fake stereo souround sound :)

  • @HU55UN1 7.1 > 5.1

  • @svenningen console gaming only supports 5.1 sorry bout that! but your astro mixamp is a waste and your turtle beaches you thought were the best well 7.1 is only good for PC sorry!

  • Can someone tell me a good wireless ps3 headset that is surround sound and is under 200 dollars

  • Is the sharkoon X tactic any better?

  • I use both the Xbox and PS3 wich surround sound headset would you reccomend

  • when i play blak ops i can't hear footsteps do you have to switch something on the audio settings i have them on surround headphones listening level quiet.

  • which is better, to wait for the tritton warhead or get ax pro's?

  • Yes I have a questions, which are your favorite headset you have ever used for COD and will work for the PS3?

  • What the hell is the point in the break?

  • Hey Trent, would you recommend turtle beach px5's or 2011 edition astro a40's?

    Thanks, Vin.

  • this is the only negative review that i have seen about this headset.

  • omg 75% of people say its one i

    of the best headsets,25%say it suks,idk who to trust

  • @airsoftkid2022 trust people like akatrent who have tried all the headsets

  • i travel alot, so should i get these or 720?

  • The Pro gamers use the 720's over AXPRO :S

  • do a video on turtel beach px3

  • @akaTRENT So what's the best headset for the PS3 under $200. I have the AX Pros right now and I wasn't impressed. For the money I was looking to pinpoint the footsteps on COD and it just wasn't there. I've tried the delay and all recommended settings. I've only had it a week so I can take them back to Best Buy. I would like to get the A40's but $279 is a little much. The most important thing to me is locating the enemy, where the hell the footsteps are coming from.

  • need help fast, plz reply,

    i dont care about the price, AX 720 or AX Pro

    is the pros better but u mean it's not worth the money or what?

  • LOL I HATE how people have sooo diffirent opinions.. this guy says that the headset doesn't sounds good.. some reviewers say they sound better than all headset at the market.. somebody even did a voice test and find out that .. they are the best sounding headset at the moment... even better sound quality as the astros.. but I don't know which one to trust .......

  • @VrtacnikTV That is exactly how i feel too

  • So now I'm stuck here with an AX Pro which you called a clunker... What should I do with it? I got it for $160 and Amazon is offering $60 for a trade in...

  • do the leather earcups for the ax pros work for the ax 720

  • soooo what your saying is,,, the axPROs are beast?

  • wats ur PSN???

    

  • @amgl550 I can see you are trying to defend your investment from what it truly is. I don't think he is a retard for giving a review that is barely invalid. Tritton's are uncomfortable, which is a fact, so....gtfo n00b. O.o

  • u are a retard. the 40mm is not a subwoofer. its the centre speaker, the very top one is the subwoofer. i also dont understand why you start twisting off one of the ear cups and complain thats its not well built ( it clearly was not designed to be twisted like that), knock on it likes theses someone there and pry it apart when you put it on and take it off when you can easily slide it off of your dumbass head. its a solid headset that is not made to be flexible or flimsy. ur review is invalid.

  • no their not by far

  • LOL, yes listen to this guy and buy simulated 5.1 so I can sound whore you while you strain to tell which direction is which coming out of two drivers

  • Hipster

  • Turtle beach are very poor headsets. They have terrible quality build. They are cheap. And most importantly have bad sound quality

  • how welll can u hear footsteps? im saving up for them and going to get them soon currently have the tritton ax 180 and want an uprgade plz answer

  • I'm currently running with the Turtle Beach DPX21 and I'm quiet happy with them apart from the constant hiss,So I am going to pick up a pair of the Tritton Pros,So are they better than the DPX21 or should I just stick with the Turtle Beach DPX21 ?

  • @TheIrishViper get the ax 720s cuz its cheaper and better. NOTE: u need a wall plug for the decoder box so make sure have that

  • yuo seriosuly do all the best reviews. you answer all my questions in the video.

    but i just actually have one question. which would you recommend overall the 720's over the pros? i like the leds on the pros but it seems like they werent worth the extra $30+ dollars that they are. i currently have the turtle beach x11 and so any headset i get will be a big step up

  • what is better the AX pro or the AX720?

  • I was thinking aout getting these, but should I get the Lodge Tech wireless headet F540 or Tritton Ax Pro 5.1? I had PX21's, but they broke(of course).

  • @vildengt. i own them both and i prefer the pros because u can customize the sound to ur liking and i feel the sound is more crisp

  • finally! some1 who gives a definite 720 answer! thank you! (just bought dpx21's and they blew) returning them for 720s 2moro

  • akaTRENT. I can't choose between the 720 & the PRO. I don't give a shit about the 20 dollar difference. Tell me which one to get, which one is the best pick?

  • hey can u reviewing the turtle beach px5 ?

  • ax 180

    ax 720

    ax pro

    wich should i pick

  • Yeah, the sound quality is crap. So what. I don't use it for anything but online gaming and I can soundwhore with the AX Pro's much much better than with my Sennheiser HD595's.

  • dammit i don't know if i should get these or the turtle beach px5's D:
