### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great headset for the most part
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 28, 2014*

I had a couple of small issues with this, but overall I think it was a good purchase; if I had a console and was without a headset, I would definitely purchase it again. The price was right, and as someone who has never used super high quality headphones, they sounded amazing to me. I was able to get way more into the game with this headset. People always seem to have understood what I was saying, so I'll assume the microphone transmits clearly. I can think of only two negative comments about this headset.The first problem is that after a couple of hours, it got pretty uncomfortable on my ears (the physical pressure, not the audio). That's not really the end of the world, though, since I probably shouldn't have had explosions blasting in my ear for that long anyways... we'll call it a safety feature.The other problem is that if I was playing split-screen with someone (and was therefore using the TV volume instead), I would occasionally have someone tell me that my microphone was feeding back. The issue was generally rectified quickly by either scooting back a foot (our living room was somewhat cramped, so I was pretty close to the TV), or by rotating the microphone further away from the TV. I don't think this happened very often, though, because I usually played with the same people on a regular basis and they would have informed me.Because of these two things, I am reviewing it with four stars; the main reason for the missing star is the ear discomfort after extended use. A little more padding, and this would definitely be a 5 star product. Don't get me wrong, however. I would still definitely buy it again - especially for thirty dollars.

    Turtle beach X12 vs. Turtle beach XLA, vs. Triton Trigger.
  

*by N***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 25, 2014*

This review will be a comparison of three entry level gaming headsets for the Xbox 360.Turtle beach X12, Turtle beach XLA, and the Triton Trigger.My goal was to find the highest quality gaming headset for under $50 that provided chat and game sound.I purchased all three of these from Amazon at the same time to test them out.Here is the price at time of purchase.Turtle beach XLA: $29.62Turtle beach X12: $42.71Triton Trigger: $49.99All three of these headsets have these same basic features.Simple and reliable and no batteries to changeAmplified audio (USB powered –plugs into Xbox)Separate chat and game volume controls (Plays game sound and teammate chat through both speakers)Stereo sound (all have good sound quality)Similar hook up to Xbox (RCA cables with optional chat wire to Xbox controller)Still with me, OK. Let’s get on to the review.Main differences  UsageBoth the X12 and the Triton trigger are over the ear headphones and provide good noise isolation.  The XLA is an on the ear style which may be more comfortable for people wearing glasses.  The triton has smaller ear cups and has a tighter fit, it will be uncomfortable for people with large heads and/or ears.  The triton also provided better noise isolation than both but with the lack of Mic monitoring I found myself talking tool loud.-Advantage:  Turtle beachBoth Turtle Beach headsets have Microphone monitoring – Nonadjustable but also very nice feature and in my opinion a must.Mic monitor allows you to hear yourself as you speak into the mic. With most closed-back headphones, you can’t hear yourself talking and end up inadvertently shouting when you talk. The mic monitor handily eliminates that side-effect.-Advantage:  Turtle beach  ControlsIn order for a set of gaming headphones to work with the Xbox 360, they must be self amplified. This is because the only way to get game audio from the Xbox is to tap its analog audio output or optical digital output. Rather than design an outboard box to decode and convert a digital signal, an in-line amplifier was designed in to these headsets. This also means that these aren’t capable of surround sound without an additional add-on processor.

    Both the X12 and the Triton trigger have the chat and game volume controls on an inline wired module including a chat mute switch.The X12 has a red or green LED on the controller that shows chat mute status.The X12 also has a base boost feature which is nice for movies.The XLA has the controls on the headset so it’s all by feel.  The wires on this are the least annoying I've ever seen on a turtle beach. Thanks to the controls being located on the ear cup, the wires only split to plug into the controller. It is a durable black wire that feels sturdy. They stay out of the way, and easy to wrap up.The Triton in line adapter is a standalone unit and allows for any headphones to be plugged into it.  This is really nice if you don’t want to chat and can use any headphones of your choice.  I tried it with my Bose over ear and my IPhone ear buds.  The Bose sound great and the IPhone ear buds work but you must flip the mute switch because the iPhone mic and controls are proprietary and will not work, causing a high pitch squeal in game.Since the Trigger headset is detachable from the in-line module you can use it with all other devises just like regular headphones and with smart phones for phone calls.  I tested it with my IPhone and it works great for phone calls and sounds surprisingly good for music.The overall cabling on the Triton is far superior in build quality to both the turtle beach headsets, it has a thick quality cable and great in line adapter.  The triton also come with the adapter for gaming with HDMI.  You can purchase this separately for under $10 if you need it.

    Those using the Xbox’s HDMI connection will need to get the Xbox break-out cable that provides an analog audio connection when using HDMI. It’s either that, or you must tap a stereo monitor output off of either a TV or A/V receiver. It may sound confusing, but it really isn’t. It took just one minute to get the headset up and running.-Advantage:  Triton Trigger  MicrophoneThe Mic an all three sets are great.All have the metal flexible arm and good sensitivity.All stay putThe Triton trigger does fold up out of the way much nicer than the others.Unfortunately the Triggers lack voice monitoring, a feature that their higher tiered headset (Detonator) contains, really holds it back. This was probably done intentionally to promote the sale of the higher tiered Detonator headset.None are removable-Advantage: Turtle beach Ear cupsAs stated earlier:Both the X12 and the Triton trigger are over the ear headphones and provide good noise isolation.  The XLA is an on the ear style which may be more comfortable for people wearing glasses.  The triton has smaller ear cups and has a tighter fit, it will be uncomfortable for people with large heads and/or ears.  The triton also provided better noise isolation than both but with the lack of Mic monitoring I found myself talking tool loud.The X12 is the clear winner here, with large ear cups and 50mm drivers vs. 40mm on the other two.  I found them more comfortable and less hot to wear for extended periods of time.-Advantage: X12 ConclusionX12 is the overall winnerXLA is the best for those on a budget at only $30, it’s a steal.Triton trigger is great for those with a smaller head (young adults) but upgrading to the Detonator would be the way to go for this brand.The turtle beach X12 is the #1 selling wired gaming headset, and for good reason.  For the price you can’t beat the features and comfort and function.Although my original intentions were to just have a stereo headset  to keep my gaming down as to not bother anyone, I've found myself wearing them most of the time just because of how good they sound and the full game emersion.  I would say that anyone looking into a low cost headset, or need a replacement for that crappy Microsoft chat mic, I would definitely recommend the Turtle Beach X12. It's not perfect, but for the price and its quality, you'd be hard pressed to find a better deal.If you made it this far, thanks for reading!If you would like to leave a comment with any questions you have, feel free.  This took me a sometime to reach a decision, so I've learned quite a bit.

Definitely worth the money. I upgraded to the Razer kitty edition but sound wise you can't beat this headset for the price
