Very Solid Headset,
August 10, 2011 Andy - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ear Force PX3 Programmable Wireless Gaming Headset (Video Game)
Got this headset because I am up at night a lot and don't want to wake up others in the house with my surround sound system. I considered the PX5's and x41's but ultimately went with the PX3's because they're rechargeable (unlike the PX5's) and appeared to be made much better than the x41's.
I've had them for a few days now and so far I'm extremely happy with them. They're super comfortable and sound great. I know they don't have "true" surround sound, but when I'm playing shooters I can locate sounds instantly. It makes me wonder what it would be like with the DSS add-on. Playing COD I noticed that even when I get flashed, I'm still able to quickly turn to the correct direction most times and get a decent chance at taking the guy down, which is something that was difficult even with my surround sound system. Also, the way the RCA cord is designed allows you to run any other sound systems you might have straight through the headphones' red-white audio cord. This was...Read more

This was my first turtle beach, and it is just wonderful. The other guy says that no presets have been released, he didn't really look that hard. You have to download the turtle beach presets manager ([...] Create an account at turtle beach first), hook up your transmitter to your computer, and download them to your device (They come in bundles, are free, and there is a ton of them). The PX3s are not fully programmable like the PX5s or the XP500s because all the presets are uneditable, but the PX3s are also cheaper. Also, the sound is great to me, the PX5s are probably better, but I wouldn't know. True, they do not have surround sound, but you can still tell from which direction footsteps are coming or you're getting shot at. But i guess if you've had a set of turtle beaches without surround sound before (I haven't, like I said this is my first set) then you would probably want to buy the PX5s, but if you've never owned turtle beaches, I would highly recommend getting a set of...Read more

Great sound, battery can be annoying..,

This review is from: Ear Force PX3 Programmable Wireless Gaming Headset (Video Game)
The sound, comfort, and experience is amazing. I highly recommend. The only con I found was the battery was annoying. There is no indicator telling you the how much battery is left or when it is fully charged. You can keep the headphones plugged in for awhile and not know when to disconnect it. Also, the headphones will beep a few times and not mean the batteries are low so I have no clue what that would mean.
Overall, highly recommend these headphones!
