[kingDjo1993]

[kingDjo1993]

Hoedown u turn the mic in

[Nolvertoisbad]

@papadumgeek- why do you recommend to change optical digital cables?

[MrBlakey31]

i cant speak from my mic but i can hear game noises and other people talking, anyone soultions?

[mndhzrb12]

Thanks heaps! :) a+

[ConstantineChaconas]

Very helpful! I always wondered whether it had an optical passthrough.. Thanks! I now have it running my PS3 & 360.

[ukdalton1]

u suck u didnt show xbox and plugin any cables

[anticamper97]

i have no sound in 1 speaker, how do i fix??

[ProtoAssassinZero]

is it normal that i still get a lot of static and how can i get sound from just my headset and have the tv sound off

[socaliguy81]

I'm not sure you quite understand how optical cables work. Either they work or they don't. Digital cables DO NOT have any difference in quality of transmission. Otherwise, great video. But don't tell people they need to spend anything more than the bare minimum on digital cables.

[stuthorr]

Cheers dude

[ixThatGuy]

i have my x11's set up though a series of splitters and another male to male connector so that i get sound from my tv/console and pc all at the same time. i'm afraid if i buy these i will not be able to do the same set up way that i have now.

[ZrMzx]

Thanks So Much

:)

[DevesC007]

My friend swears up and down that he can set these up with his computer. Anyone know if this is true. So far as I know it is only for Xbox 360 and PS3 use.

[1PlaceForCoD]

@DevesC007 yes watch an unboxing it comes with a usb computer cable

[MrJayJayJack]

well if you guys cant get your headset working your all RETARDS,

1: hook up the headset modem to your ps3

2: sync the headset to modem

3:go to sound settings, then click on audio output settings

4: click on optical digital

5: select Dolby Digital 5.1 CH,

[crabtreecameron]

you forgot about your cord that goes in the bottom of the router

[crabtreecameron]

i lagg when i turn my headsets on in games

[jpbk23]

[TheCommunityPSN]

@ThePapadumGeek i need help connecting it to my cpu (Mac os x)

[LiK3aMONK3Y]

@TheCommunityPSN Same man, wish i knew how to connect it to my mac via bluetooth audio.

[itsZero55]

same problem as AnarchyCp...

[AnarchyCP]

i set mine up but no audio wont come out :(

[ItsNoScopes]

@AnarchyCP Go on sound settings. Then multi output 'on' :)

[DetectedError]

@AnarchyCP make sure your optical cable is plugged in the right way

[JTurbinator]

Hit the power button twice quickly to change ps3 mode to 360 mode n vice versa

[zTemppo]

you didnt help any.... FAIL

[metalhead9142]

you talk too much

[SuperSurferdude96]

Thank u

[TheMrzesty]

Thanks

[Muncherhunch]

danke dir :D

(thank you for helping)

[zachogh3]

Theres no game sound coming through my px5s, is it possible my optical cable is broken?

[RichardMoreno24]

Do you have a setup video for the PX 5 using the just the Xbox 360 with HDPVR and Stereo reciver?

My stereo reciever has two inputs. I do have the HDPVR all ready hooked up to one of the input on my reciever that goes with the HDPVR. But if I was to use the PX 5 with Xbox I have to always unplug the digital optical cable from the Xbox 360 to listren to my PX 5. Any way around this.

[TheBushido2008]

hey how can i connect my px5 to my i phone

[jynx2706]

I set it up but the headphones do not have any sound while playing games. I hear the clicking at the home screen and can hear sounds with netflix, just not when I play any game. Do you know why this is?

[kingtiiv]

How do you get the headset to play game audio such as Uncharted 3

[TheSunShineGamer]

i want this headset for my ps3 and xbox but the problem is my consoles work on a pc monitor with full hd can you use the px5 with this ????

[lena96]

I LOVE THAT SHIRT, I WANT ONE :)

[xPowerGhosTx]

I have trouble hearing footsteps on call of duty with the footstep mastery preset. I don't know whats wrong

[xFieLDzZ]

@xPowerGhosTx Headsets are quite useless on cod as the only game modes that are quite are free for all and Snd but on these game modes a lot of people use Ninja which cancels out most of the use of the headset.

[homefry360]

How do i get 7.1 surround sound?

[DaBoyDeeJay]

i hear audio but nobody can hear me

[captainMW3FOREVOR]

thanks great vid



[MrSpydor]

hey, i have bluetooth turned on, and my ps3 doesnt pick it up, but sound still comes through... just cant get the mic to work... any ideas anyone?

[xFieLDzZ]

The optical cable I got with my PX5 is awful and doesn't slot in well at all :(

[yubyyt]

@xFieLDzZ I HAD THIS PROBLEM TO U NEED TO REMOVE THE PLASTIC PARTS AT THE ENDS OF THE TIPS OF THE CABLE!!!!!!!

[xFieLDzZ]

@yubyyt Ah thanks that makes sense :)

[BbHaiDz]

I got these for christmas and I heard that these are the best headsets, could you also do a tutorial on how to get extra sound affects for the px5?

[DPRODUCT360ps3]

I'm getting the new XP500 MW3 Limited Edition, and i wanted to know, how to i get it to be into 7.1 dolby surround sound?

[PCgamer84]

@DPRODUCT360ps3 There no xp500 MW3 Version just delta

[mrsbrownperson]

how much are these?

[BbHaiDz]

@mrsbrownperson $300

[xDomDominion]

The way to pair and listen yo music answer phone calls and stuff is to hold the Bluetooth button until it says pairing or something like that then search for "turtle beach px5" with your bluetooth device.

[Tact1calSkullz]

how do i connect to XBOX 360

[pimp32ish]

My PX5's have horrible chat audio , any way to fix it?

[Tawarf91]

I have a problem with the mic. Im not able to speak into it? :S

[Amon2012able]

I have a problem with the Microphone.... no sound is coming out

[huffy204]

i heard you can set the px5 so that you can listen to music and while playing a game and chat., But i can't seem to find a way to do it?

[PATR0PY]

we need tutorial for xp500,..

also the program is not recognizing the headset,..

thanks

[RobsonVsCyberworld]

[EpiphoneLPJrGuitar]

@RobsonVsCyberworld yea!

[itsimp0sibleTV]

[TANKD3MPC]

[RichardMoreno24]

Thanks for sharing, do you have a xbox video on the PX5?

[Tommyx8686]

better sony wireless 7.1 or PX5?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@Tommyx8686 Depends, The PX5 has more options and I find the that surround sound works better thanthe SONYs, But the Sonys are just easier to use and great for long game sessions. I use them as my primary gaming headphones now

[AlexHackUpdates]

@ThePapadumGeek get sony px5 sucks

[CrispyyHD]

[MrBenzter11]

@ThePapadumGeek did you have to set it as a bluetooth device first?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@MrBenzter11 yep

[RichardMoreno24]

Do I have to have a optical cable for the xbox and Ps 3 as well to work? I have a xbox 360 and PS3 slim. If I have to have opical cable for both what do I need to switch back and fourth?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@RichardMoreno24 A switch,

[hardboy113]

[ThePapadumGeek]

@hardboy113 Lol, I feeel for ya man

[supergun101]

So let me get this straight. EVERYTHING u need to talk and have surround sound, comes with the Px5s?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@supergun101 basically. 

[supergun101]

@ThePapadumGeek ok thx

[ineedarazernaga]

Does the cable go with the box that you get and where can you buy it?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@ineedarazernaga Its does, search for TOS Link cables or Optical cable

[ineedarazernaga]

@ThePapadumGeek Do you think its worth buying?

[JeffGoodmanFilms]

how can you change the chat volume?

[joffreiscool]

on the transmitter what does the button do cause i pressed it and it sounds different

help!!!!!!!

[TheOneAndOnlyNub]

Hey whatsup m8, when I play MW3 for instance or BLOPS, I don't hear anything as good as I hope I would. I use the correct presets (footstep mastery; and so on) but I still almost in a way hear better WITHOUT headsets, so there must be something wrong..

I saw you choose "Dolby Digital 5.1", but isn't this 7.1 sorround?

[ClanXuNe]

IM GETTING ONE TODAY!

[ThePapadumGeek]

@ClanXuNe Sweeet

[ClanXuNe]

@ThePapadumGeek i got it! it is super amazing! but the problem is when i turn the Receiver thing it just slows my connection, any solution?

[cod7owns]

thx it helped heaps :) liked and subbed

[ThePapadumGeek]

@cod7owns Thanks very much ;-)

[sulyking1]

in sound settings do have check both boxes dolby digital 5.1 and dts 5.1

[Anthony50505050]

i coudint fuking hear anything because dead nation waz on

[TylerRockz1313]

damn i was wearing headphones when the video started so the lil gazoo guy scared the shit out of me

[PhatdudeAlfa]

ohhh k thank u for clearing that up. hope i didnt waste any of ur time again thank u very much sir :) may u have a thousand more headsets to review and so do ur children s children and so on and so forth

[ThePapadumGeek]

@PhatdudeAlfa haha cheers

[PhatdudeAlfa]

y do u need to turn on the transmitter if both ur px5's and ps3 or on bluetooth?

shouldn't the 2.4 frequency be turned on just for the 360 thats all?

& y does 2.4 frequency interfere with the sound coming from your headset , doesn't PX5's have any shielding or some way to isolate the frequency from my router or phone so i wont get any signal drops or loss of connection when I'm online playing multiplayer?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@PhatdudeAlfa the bluetooth just works only with the microphone, so basically u have 2 different headsets, one for game sound and the other for voice chat.

plus there is no way of shielding the signal since its a wave of "sound". you can eather make sure where the transmitter is there is no other devices on that same frequency.

[huss1810]

do u need to turn on the transmitter if u use to ps3?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@huss1810 ya man

[PhatdudeAlfa]

if this is a Bluetooth headset does that mean that its connected to ur ps3 via Bluetooth that ps3 has and does not get its signal/connect on the 2.4 frequency that the px5 have also ? if so is the 2.4g frequency only there for connecting ur stereo system or tv's etc ?

[rockochin]

@PhatdudeAlfa thats so the headset can get connected to the transmitter, so for example is you have like a router or phone that goes on the same frequency you can have problems with the sound coming from your headset

[commanderneyo55]

I am getting Mic but not Surround sound. Please Help

[ThePapadumGeek]

@commanderneyo55 have you tried contacting turtle beach?

[commanderneyo55]

@ThePapadumGeek never mind I got it

[ThePapadumGeek]

@commanderneyo55 what was the problems So i can tell other if they ask.?

[commanderneyo55]

@ThePapadumGeek I was a dumbass. I didn't take the white thing off the optical digital cable

[rockochin]

@commanderneyo55 lol really?

[MrBiggin88]

@ThePapadumGeek Hi, I ordered my PX5 today, and I was wondering if you can get the Dolby Digital 7.1 Surround Sound on the PS3 and not just the 5.1

[rockochin]

@MrBiggin88 no u can only get 5.1 because it will be on optical cable, 7.1 can only go on true hd, u need hd cable but the turtle beach does not have hd, so 7.1 will only work on your computer

[MrBiggin88]

@rockochin Oh ok thanks! :)

[THE1STSRBOCHARGER]

Isn't it 7.1?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@THE1STSRBOCHARGER Yea it is but the ps3 can only output 5.1, you will receive 7.1 virtual sound still though

[THE1STSRBOCHARGER]

@ThePapadumGeek  what is virtual sound?

[ThePapadumGeek]

@THE1STSRBOCHARGER think of it like fake surround sound. It works, its not a gimic. But its digital enhanced sound to sound like 7.1. If you were to actually to have true 7.1 then you would have to have 7 speakers and one sub.

hope that helps

[nutbagticles]

you sir are a genius lol thanks alot!

[ThePapadumGeek]

@nutbagticles welcome

[simon3102000]

where you get your t-shirt from son?

[HankKill93]

[HankKill93]

[GodsOfAll60]

How can I do this with the xbox elite..

[JamboStudios]

[InsaneYarrak]

i cant connect my px5 with the transistor i dont know why.. i already syncd it on ps3 with bluetooth

[mikeman825]

Does it work with xBox ?! PLZ ANSWER

[ThePapadumGeek]

@mikeman825 sure does. look at the new Xbox model, might suit you better

[mikeman825]

@ThePapadumGeek THX for the answer !! Im living in Austria and the px500(?) is not released there!

[infinity0502]

@mikeman825

For turtlebeach products, the product code itself already says about the compatibility.

Check X series for XBOX, P series for PS3 only

PX works on both XBOX and PS3 as well as PCs

You can also buy the adapter to make it suits on both consoles =)

[xXZarlachXx]

[xXZarlachXx]

@xXZarlachXx

[AbstractsParody]

@xXZarlachXx Oh you got it open? Well anyway I just used my whole palm instead of my two fingers.

[TechCeption]

[Gameshadow19]

Dude! You forgot px5 can go up to 7.1!!!! You made that hs look like ass.

[RSOP90]

@Gameshadow19 hs? Yea i know it does 7.1, and in my initial review I say that. But i also said that the Ps3 and Xbox only outputs 5.1. Also Remember its Virtual surround sound so there is no distinct different with 5.1 and 7.1.
