Product Review

The Ear Force XC1 enhances your XBOX LIVE gaming experience, allowing you to communicate and strategize with your teammates more comfortably and more accurately than a standard headset. Unlike other communicator headsets, the XC1 incorporates a unique slotted ear cup design that lifts the speaker off of your ear and lets in the external game sound, so you can hear the game with both ears while listening to chat at the same time. This unique design helps assure you'll never miss out on critical communication messages while getting the full impact of the game sound.

I preordered this a few months ago, finally got it and I can finally do away with all of the regular Xbox live mics, this thing works great. I didn't need a stereo system mic as I have a wonderful surround sound system, all I wanted was a quality headset to chat with, and this is it. It is more comfortable than I expected it to be. The sound is clear and people have no problem hearing me. The boom is easily adjustable, but not flimsy. People did not hear me breathing when kept at normal distance from the mouth, and they did remark the voice quality was much more clear.

Also, I like to wear these on my right ear, although every mic pic always shows them on people's left ears. No problem because it is adjustable for either or. Wish it was cheaper than $25, but then again, I won't have to wait for Xbox live communicator and subscription packs to go on sale to always replace the cheap mics. Every other Xbox mic I have had has either quit working because of faulty wires...Read more

I wanted to replace my old microsoft headset so I decided to buy the XC1. It was a good deal and its turtle beach which is one of the best brands out there. So when I received the headset, it was comfortable and and worked perfectly, but one day I try to use the headset and I couldn't hear my friends on the xbox live party. So I'm stuck with my old microsoft headset again, I'm probably going to save money for that new wireless bluetooth headset that is coming out this November. Do not get this headset, my microsoft headset lasted longer
*Update*: I ordered a replacement headset and it seems to work fine I will give an update after a month of usage
*Update 2*: So I got my second headset and its been around two months of usage and guess what it broke AGAIN! I was starting to like this headset but it broke. I don't understand I thought turtle beaches are made to last for a long time.

I wanted to be the first to write a review on this product. I have been waiting 3 weeks for this to come out. I received it today!!! I did some research before I ordered this item. Everyone says Turtle Beach is #1 and they wern't kidding! This headset communicator beats all communicators and was worth the wait! It's lightweight, very comfortable for those long gaming sessions, you can hear the game sounds through both ears due to their design, it's left/right ear compatable, and has a very rugged and durable cable unlike the Microsoft ones. Crystal clear communicating. This is our 4th headset, first by Turtle Beach, and I gotta tell ya.....I'll NEVER by a different brand from now on. 10 outta 10 Turtle Beach. Thanks for making me a believer!!!
