Review on ๐ŸŽง Turtle Beach DXL1 Gaming Headset - Dolby Surround Sound - Xbox 360 by Eli Saumell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

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 great ride! I was able to get my Sennheiser Game One to work with it! (That was the plan from the start, but I decided to try the TB headphones). When I found what it took to get Sennheiser to work with DSS2, I was blown away! The sound is phenomenal! Each setting has its pros and cons, but overall it's a great machine! The only real complaint about the Earforce is that it mimics surround sound, not true surround sound. But for 30โ‚ฌ I'll take it! My true rating for each device: TB DXL1 gaming headset - 1 star (trash) Earforce DSS2 - 4 stars (excellent but no true 5.1 surround sound)

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