[Abriggs500]

[Vo0p4]

Can you use the Mix AMp or the Headset for the PC?

[amiller360]

@Vo0p4 Yes, The headset comes with the appropriate attachments to connect everything to your PC.

[storminmorman50]

@smash1ngNoScoper Turtle Beach X31... check out my review of it on my channel.

[xxTechxxx]

quick question can you here yourself talk a little through the mic so you don't have that clogged ear feeling and strain your voice when you talk? PLZ REPLY

[amiller360]

yes that is one of the features of the headset.

[s13n7ki11l3r]

yes thats normal

[playb3yond2oo8]

BTW ther isnt 4 speakers in each cup =S its normal 50mm speakers its the mixamp tht makes it have artifical surround :)

[TehPACUSLITE]

There are only 2 speakers, one in each ear. They are 40mm drivers.

[tedros19]

how can they be surround sound with only two speakers

[TehPACUSLITE]

Good question.They imitate surround sound, i do not know what that actually means, but you can hear where sounds are coming from.

[tedros19]

Oh Cool as long as i can hear where enemies are coming from then thats fine with me might get this and Tittons and test them out maybe the Tittons with the mixamp if that works

[CYYB3RMISTER]

good combo

[jokeboxproductions]

magic ok

[aimatunub]

mines comes this monday :D

cant wait :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[xZacHo]

aimatunub, what do yuo think of them?

[aimatunub]

ehmm - they're the best headsets you can get your hands on

if you're going to buy them you should buy an optical cable aswell

it is simulated surround sound - not true surround sound

there is 1 40mm speaker in each ear cup

[xZacHo]

i know the specs lol ive done a ton of research.

i just wanted to know if you actually like them. are they ok for people that are inbetween casual and serious gaming that have the money? if i take out that foam inset that reduces sound will i be able to hear my friends if theyre next to me? thanks

[aimatunub]

ok, i would say its worth the money

if you were to take off that foam you would slightly hear but not enough to make out what they're saying

i don't really see why you would want to know this though :P

[CerealzTheDude]

there are actually two speakers

[whiteshadow001]

gettin some for christmas or my b-day

i really hope the sound quality is good.

[amiller360]

Sound is amazing, when I'm wearing them it really feels like I have a surround sound system. You will love them.

[whiteshadow001]

good cause my tb's have broken 3 times and i've had both the x3 and x4, which are very cheaply made

[XmanymanX]

I've had mine for 5 months.. Nothing wrong with them, I guess we can say that you take care of your stuff.

[hawaiiancerveza]

[hawaiiancerveza]
