Turtlebeach Headsets

[FlorianR]

I've been a FPS (first person shooter, not frames per second )gamer for some time now and for my birthday a year ago i got a new pair of headsets. And oooh my god did that change everything. Every sound is projected crystal-clear into your ear, and the bass is beyond believable. "Well how does this relate to x-plane?", you might ask. Well i recently tried plugging them into my macbook when flying x-plane, and trust me when i say: it sounds exactly like your in a real airplane. You can feel the rumble of the engines and the piercing sound of each clicking button. The "ding-dong" of the seat-belt sign and the stall warning sound better than ever before (and alarming too).

Also, a microphone is attached for the online flyers.

Do yourself a favor and make x-plane come too life from an audio perspective: http://www.turtlebeach.com/products/ps3-gaming-headsets/ear-force-px21.aspx

(i was not paid to say this, though it might seem so)

Happy Flying to All,

Thanks.

However I did check for curiosity the product rating on amazon.uk and there are way too many bad reviews.

Still, I am glad you can enjoy a trouble free experience.

I'm bemused that the headset is 'designed for PS3' - I'd have thought a headset was a headset. I like the way it has two channels, one for chat and another for game sound. That would be a good feature for flight sims.

While it it may have been "designed" for the PS3, it certainly works for my Xbox, Laptop, and iPod. The sounds are amazing, and give a new feel to the game. About the seperation between chat and game sounds....well that doesn't work for X-Plane, sorry
