I feel kind of ripped off, I just bought the XP500's 2 months ago and really enjoy them. Then I heard you are releasing these new headsets with dual-band wifi and I just had my stomach drop. If you could somehow release a adapter similar to the DSS for dual-band wifi I will love you guys.
@danielfruity You don't need the dual-band WiFi radio if your XP500 is working fine. The XP500 has a lot more features than the XP300/400, so it's a better headset.
Amazon.com has a release date of March 20th for these headsets. Is this true,and if it is will retail stores like Best Buy have them on this date too?
@CITYxOFxSINS It is not a release date. They have to have some sort of a date, so they put in their best guess. Watch our Facebook page. We announce everything there as soon as we have firm information.
@TurtleBeachVideos I personally hope they come out around that time and no later. I know people are very impatient these days and the new wireless Tritton warheads are dropping April 1st,and from what i hear alot of kids are liking the shiny look of those things. Me personally will go with the 5.8 mix amp seeing that i already have the A40's if the 400's take too long to come out.
@TurtleBeachVideos I need a headset I can use for both the Xbox 360 AND the PC. I'd like to leave the optical receiver connected to the Xbox, while being able to use the Bluetooth to game and chat on my laptop. That way I don't have to go hooking and unhooking cables when I want to change activities. I don't care if the Bluetooth doesn't support Dolby digital on the PC, I just need to be able to hear the game I'm playing and talk to people on Skype. Can the XP400s do this? If not, suggestions?
@KillshotJon The XP400 doesn't have an A2DP Bluetooth, which means it's mono, not stereo, and won't support game sound. The XP500 will do what you're looking for though.
@scottcooley84 That's exactly how i feel. That is the most important addition to the XP400 headsets. Just because the PX5 and the XP500s have all these extra options don't mean anything, especially when they still run on the 2.4GHz frequency. That alone ruins everything those headsets could've been. I definitely would'nt pay almost $300 for headsets that still run on that frequency.
Another question, I just realized i have a dual band router and my XBOX360 runs on 5GHz while everything else in my house is running a 2.4GHz frequency. Can you explain how the XP400s will work around that? Also,how come you guys didn't just use the 5.8GHz frequency that is known to work so well like some other wireless headsets have?
@CITYxOFxSINS The 360 S only supports the 2.4Ghz band for 802.11n. If you are using the black, dual antenna wireless adapter from Microsoft, then that supports 802.11n on both 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz. The XP400 uses 5.2ghz because it is a global standard and should not conflict with typical wireless n 5ghz traffic.
@TurtleBeachVideos You better be incorrect on this. To the best of my knowledge the slim should support the 5ghz N channel. My wifi adapter N for my old elite is compatable with the 5 ghz and Microsoft is going to lose me as a customer forever If I find out you are correct about this. Also have you improved your cords yet, I refuse to buy another wired turtle beach product because your cords have a mind of their own and get tangled so much it is a HUGE PROBLEM. I will be picking up the XP500 :)
@TurtleBeachVideos Thanks for the quick reply. I'm very saddened to hear that. Why one earth would MS not enable dual band frequences with the built in wifi on the slim when the old wifi N adapters used on the old slims do this? Anyhow I know this isn't anyone's problem at Turtle Beach, but I do appreciate the reply, thank you.
Thanks for the quick response. Personally i feel the most important things about this headset is they are wireless and have the new frequency. I really don't care for the presets and surround sound angles, i won't be using them anyway. I feel the main sound performance and solid wireless connections are the things that make a good headset. I don't want to have popping like i did with the x41s. I want a clean connection,and i can't wait to try them out.
Is the PX5 still considered the flagship wireless model for PS3 and the XP400 is more of a "younger sibling"? Spec-wise, is the PX5 superior to the XP400? I also noticed that the XP400 does not have a stand for the headphones. I loved that about the PX5 and how it was integrated into the transmitter.
@mistersir22COD Yes, the PX5 is still the top PS3 headset. The PX5 has voice prompts, a Bluetooth radio that lets you dual pair to your phone as well as stream music, and is fully programmable via the use of presets. The XP400 does not have voice prompts nor access to presets, and its Bluetooth cannot stream music from another Bluetooth device. It does have an adjustable mic monitor control, rechargeable battery, dual band WiFi, and adjustable Surround Sound Angles.
Also i would like to know how the 2.4/5ghz of these headsets stand up to the astros 5.8ghz frequency. i love my astros and the sound is great,but i need complete wireless. That 2.4 frequency is what made me return the tb x41s in for the astros in the first place.
@d3athstrok3JJ It's better if you want wireless chat. The PX3 is programmable, so it's better in that regard. They both sound great, but the PX3 has presets and the XP500 has wireless chat.
I want to be able to use it as both an Xbox AND PC headset. I'd like to leave the optical receiver connected to the Xbox, while being able to use the Bluetooth function to game and chat on my laptop. That way I don't have to go about hooking and unhooking cables when I want to change activities. I don't care if the Bluetooth doesn't support Dolby digital on the PC, I just need to be able to hear the game I'm playing and talk to people on Skype. Can it do that?
@SammyIsLikeAwesome You would have to connect your iPad to the XP400's transmitter. So if all you want to do is listen to music around the house, then that should be fine.
@SammyIsLikeAwesome You cannot stream music over Bluetooth with the XP300 and XP400. So no, not out and about, but you can connect your iPod to the headset's transmitter and listen to music that way.
@DaPnoiJason If you're looking for PC compatibility along with the ability to use presets, then go with the PX3. If you are purely a console gamer, then the XP300 is a great choice.
@Sunnydudebob The XP400 provides more custom options with the addition of Surround Sound Angles. However, the XP500 is still king with all its included features: Bluetooth for chat as well as streaming music, voice prompts, voice morphing, and fully customizable presets!
@Soldier1287 The XP400 requires a digital output. Many current Xbox component cables have a digital output port built in. If yours doesn't have one, you can purchase a newer version that should have the port.
@808SuperMonkey The XP300 is a stereo headset, while the XP400 is a surround sound headset that includes adjustable surround sound angle settings and Blast Limiter.
Umm i have big ears the tritton ax720 fit my ears just fine and you guys turtle beach x11 fit them perfectly is the ear padding on these the same as the xp500 because the xp500 hurt my right ear or have they gotten bigger in anyway???? .
@Moose555510 Neither Sony or Microsoft have announced any new consoles. There's no way for us to know whether a product we make now will be compatible with a product that doesn't exist yet.
Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. I have more though lol, Can you elaborate more on the difference in sound quality that you will receive between the X42's and the the XP 300. You replied to another poster saying that the 42's had surround sound and the 300's didn't, (or something to that effect), I'm trying to read through the post and not ask questions that you've already answered, but its more tricky than trying to rock a rhyme thats right on time you know? lol.
@smooch357 The XP300 is stereo, The XP400 and X42 are surround sound. The main difference is that the XP300/400 have BT wireless chat and a rechargeable battery. The X41 is Dolby surround but uses a chat cable and AAA batteries. The sound on all three is the same, in terms of sound quality.
@TurtleBeachVideos Okay, I think I understand now. So since the 300's don't have surround sound, does that mean that I won't be to hear stuff from all around me when I'm playing (like what direction footsteps are coming from, sounds behind me, above, below, off in the distance ect...)? Or will the 300's virtually do this for me like Dolby prologic does (I think)? If they do, in your opinion is there much of a difference in "surround sound quality" between say the 300's and the 400's/42's?
@smooch357 You'll hear sounds on the left and right, but not in front or behind. That's what the XP400 does. If you get an XP300 you can get a DSS2 later on and turn it into an XP400.
@TurtleBeachVideos i don't care about that, i just don't want to waste 120€ (i live in germany) i could also buy for may 130€ the PX300/400 and these are much better^^
Also, will these work with the console apps like netflix and hulu when you watch them on you ps3 or 360? will you still be able to get surround sound while viewing?
With the XP 300 and 400, there is some kind of adapter that you connect to your xbox 360 controller that lest you get wireless chat, is there a way to get this adapter to work with the X42's? Like can you buy it separately for the 42's and use it?
@marthastewart95 It's programmable, has a secondary output so you can attach any wired stereo headphones to the transmitter and listen in surround sound and it has a stereo Bluetooth so you can stream music wirelessly to it.
@NickyDells573 The surround sound processing in an X42 is the same as the DSS, so adding a DSS to an X42 isn't going to do anything. You're better off with either an X42 or and XP400. An XP300 + DSS will cost more than an XP400, which has the same surround sound as a DSS.
Not sure if this is the right section but I have a ? about the x32 / x42. When putting these on your head are they the same size as the x31 / x42 or are they bigger? I ask because my x31s are just a little small. Not the ear muffs but the actual headset. Ideally i would like for it to extend a little wider. Txs in advance.
Out of all the headsets that you are releasing in this lineup, which have the deepest ear cushions? In the pictures it looks like the x42 but im not sure
i have three things to ask 1 is the xp 300 and 400 are like the px 3 like they have a sort of box thing that the head set is wirelessly connected to right? and 2 what is the difference between the dss and the dss 2 and finally how much will the xp 400 cost cause it looks amazing
@DarkBlazeX47 1) Yes. 2) The DSS2 has better surround sound, full EQ, multiple surround sound speaker angles, lets you mix in your own music and costs less. 3) MSRP is $219.95.
Do the x42's have depper ear cups than the x41's? Maybe cause they have a different material on the speaker inside? or not? I wanted to know because the material on the inside of the ear cup was right against my ear and didn't feel good.
@VCamilo same idea I had. I was thinking about getting the x42, but I already have the DSS so I am prob gonna get the xp300. I still love the look of the x42 though. Which headset do you think you are going to get?
@NickyDells573 I already have the P11 but after seeing the XP400 and the XP300 I'm thinking about getting the XP300 but before I buy it I want to get the DSS 1st
and do u know if ur bring new presets to the table and when they will be relesed and if there will be improvements to the manager how menny diffrent angles can u here the sround sound in the 400 and is the new feturers u have up ur sleve four the 400 and the 300
thank u I don't realy understand the diffrence because I am english I know were ur coming from just like to say I'm a big fan of the new range of tec u have
@kizzza23 If you play on XBOX and want wireless chat, the XP500 is $10 less than buying the PX5 with a separate XBA. If you play on PS3, then you should get the PX5.
Actually the PX5's depending where you buy them from will cost you around $225 to 250 without the xba adapter which is an additional $30. The XP500's are around $269 and comes with the xba adapter bundled together. Personally I would wait for the XP400's because they are cheaper and better headset with more features.
@Theyellowflash6 Each is better for a different reason. The XP300 has Bluetooth, so you get wireless XBOX chat, but the PX3 is programmable. It depends on which feature you like better.
what are ur thoughts shall i wait till these come out the 400s or shall i buy the px5 i want to have the best gaming exspirince dose the 400 have presets or not and witch one do u think is better
Come to think of it, would I not be better off just buying the x42 if I don't want Bluetooth. It seems like they are very similar headsets. What are the differences between the two?

@TurtleBeachVideos Okay, I think I understand now. So since the 300's don't have surround sound, does that mean that I won't be to hear stuff from all around me when I'm playing (like what direction footsteps are coming from, sounds behind me, above, below, off in the distance ect...)? Or will the 300's virtually do this for me like Dolby prologic does (I think)? If they do, in your opinion is there much of a difference in "surround sound quality" between say the 300's and the 400's/42's?
smooch357 1 month ago
@smooch357 You'll hear sounds on the left and right, but not in front or behind. That's what the XP400 does. If you get an XP300 you can get a DSS2 later on and turn it into an XP400.

should i buy the PX21 or the XP300/400? i want to play MW3 like a boss with these :D:D
KruemelIVIonster 1 month ago
@KruemelIVIonster It depends on whether or not you want wired or wireless. The XP300/400 are definitely better headsets than the PX21.
TurtleBeachVideos 1 month ago
@TurtleBeachVideos i don't care about that, i just don't want to waste 120€ (i live in germany) i could also buy for may 130€ the PX300/400 and these are much better^^
is it worth to buy the px21?

Also, will these work with the console apps like netflix and hulu when you watch them on you ps3 or 360? will you still be able to get surround sound while viewing?
smooch357 1 month ago
@smooch357 The headset will play whatever sound comes out of the console. So if you can hear it on speakers, you can hear it on the headset.
TurtleBeachVideos 1 month ago
With the XP 300 and 400, there is some kind of adapter that you connect to your xbox 360 controller that lest you get wireless chat, is there a way to get this adapter to work with the X42's? Like can you buy it separately for the 42's and use it?
smooch357 1 month ago
@smooch357 The XBA adapter won't work with the X42 because you need Bluetooth in the headset.

Which has better surround sound? DSS + XP300, or x42? Since the x42 is made to use surround sound, will it have better surround sound?
NickyDells573 1 month ago
@NickyDells573 The surround sound processing in an X42 is the same as the DSS, so adding a DSS to an X42 isn't going to do anything. You're better off with either an X42 or and XP400. An XP300 + DSS will cost more than an XP400, which has the same surround sound as a DSS.

@TurtleBeachVideos how much deeper are the ear cups on the x42 than the x41?
NickyDells573 1 month ago
@NickyDells573 Not much.
TurtleBeachVideos 1 month ago
Not sure if this is the right section but I have a ? about the x32 / x42. When putting these on your head are they the same size as the x31 / x42 or are they bigger? I ask because my x31s are just a little small. Not the ear muffs but the actual headset. Ideally i would like for it to extend a little wider. Txs in advance.
SLEEPYJAY1974 1 month ago
@SLEEPYJAY1974 The X32 is bigger than an X31 because it has bigger speakers (50mm vs 40mm). The X41 and X42 are the same size.

DarkBlazeX47 1 month ago
@DarkBlazeX47 1) Yes. 2) The DSS2 has better surround sound, full EQ, multiple surround sound speaker angles, lets you mix in your own music and costs less. 3) MSRP is $219.95.

Do the x42's have depper ear cups than the x41's? Maybe cause they have a different material on the speaker inside? or not? I wanted to know because the material on the inside of the ear cup was right against my ear and didn't feel good.

is the xp500 worth to get because the px5 are just the same but it don't have a adapter for the xbox live controler
kizzza23 1 month ago
@kizzza23 If you play on XBOX and want wireless chat, the XP500 is $10 less than buying the PX5 with a separate XBA. If you play on PS3, then you should get the PX5.
TurtleBeachVideos 1 month ago
Actually the PX5's depending where you buy them from will cost you around $225 to 250 without the xba adapter which is an additional $30. The XP500's are around $269 and comes with the xba adapter bundled together. Personally I would wait for the XP400's because they are cheaper and better headset with more features.

@tkayani96 You can just ignore the call and not pick it up. If you turn off the BT, you won't have wireless chat.
