Terrible headphones, phenomenal digital surround sound device

First of all, these headphones are total crap! I used them every 10 minutes before wanting to throw them in the trash. Leaking headphones sound like crazy. So many people have complained about the sound leaking into the mic. The sound quality is terrible. Whatever EQ settings I did, it sounded very bad. Tinny doesn't even begin to explain how bad the sound is. Now for the real reason to get them! DSS2! This device is amazing! Pair them with a good pair of headphones and you're in for a greatโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Okay for the most part, but...

DSS2 required for full gaming experience

Ordered a year ago today, mainly for DSS2, not for headset. A DSS2 Dolby Surround sound processor is essential if you want the most immersive gaming experience. This is especially true when playing first-person shooters, as directional audio helps you better navigate your surroundings. It's great to hear games the way the developers intended them. There are a few presets to choose from, but I didn't play with them much after the initial setup. I've used DSS2 to listen to everything on my XBOXโ€ฆ

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Market availability

excellent especially for the price *updated 5/10/17*

For the price its great! They offer a great sound and are comfortable to wear (even with glasses). The chords are a bit long for my taste (but I just twisted them) when I charge the controller while using these headphones there is a little white noise in the background, I just try never to do that. Excellent headphones that I recommend to everyone. The mic works great, my buddies will message me about feedback from time to time, but I just unplug the controller and plug it back in and it seemsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Updates

Excellent Installation - Headsets

Installation was very easy; a USB cable and an optical cable. Sound adjustment is done by pressing a button; There's no visual indicator, you have to play something through the headphones and press the button until you like the sound profile. The headphone cable is very long, which can be a good or bad thing. Sitting next to an Xbox means you have a lot of extra cable, but the length gives you plenty of room. The headphones themselves are comfortable even with glasses. The ear pads are largeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Poor performance

As the Turtle Beach x12 set my brother and I used for our Xbox 360 is on its last legs I decided it was time to buy a new headset. I went shopping and knew a few things: I needed surround sound, I needed a more comfortable kit than the x12, I didn't want to spend a lot of money, and I wanted the headphones to cover my ears completely. The DXL1 set did all of those things. For some reason, on the x12 line of headsets (yes, there are multiple types of x12 headsets, search for them) the inside ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Functionality
