After reading some of the instruction booklet and noticing that the parts didn’t match and after attempting to update the firmware via my MacBook Air (the Turtle Beach Audio Hub is available for Windows and Mac), I discovered that the instructions included were for the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 Max headphones and not the Stealth 600 Gen 2 USB Wireless Amplified Gaming Headset, which is the model I have. It’s not a deal-breaker for me but it was noticeable enough to cause me to stop playing after that long so that the ache didn’t get worse.Īside from the actual headset’s functionality and use, there was only one issue I had with these headphones – the instructions. I started noticing it after about 90 minutes of gameplay. If I moved it around a little I was able to shift the discomfort for a little while, but it eventually came back. The box actually states that they are ‘glasses-friendly.’ My ears were comfortable and didn’t get hot or sweaty, but the longer I played the more I noticed that the top of my head was hurting right where the headband was resting. I really liked that it was an analog dial instead of a button or a touch-sensitive control.Īs far as comfort goes, the headset is lightweight and easy to wear with glasses. It was very easy to turn the dial up and down to adjust the volume. I loved how I could control the sound directly on the side of the headphones. It bothered me a little but it really helped me enjoy the game even more than usual. Once I started playing the game I couldn’t hear anything around me. One of the things I really like about the sound quality is how enveloped I felt with the enhanced sound from the headphones.Īs far as noise isolation goes, the ear cups enclosed my ears completely, and even without the sound on, I was able to drown out some of the ambient sounds in the room. There were a lot of sounds I had never heard before using the Superhuman Hearing mode. I’ve played through RDR2 twice and I’m now just taking advantage of free play in story mode. After playing with standard stereo for a while, I switched to the Superhuman Hearing setting, and wow, was that a game-changer (no pun intended). I liked using that mode quite a bit considering that RDR2 relies a lot on the surrounding environment and what’s going on. I used the standard stereo mode at first, which was very clear and easy to hear environmental nuances (things like steps and tiny animal noises). To do my first test run of the headset, I fired up RDR2 and played for a while to get used to the feeling of them. Out of the box, this headset did have a charge to it, but it’s always a good practice to charge headphones before using them – especially for longer periods of time. The Xbox automatically switches over to using the headset as the output audio source. You just plug the USB receiver into a USB-A port on your Xbox (we used the one on the front) and the headset automatically connects to it. the amplified audio functionality (Refined earcup acoustics and expertly tuned 50mm speakers are powerfully driven to give you accurate, immersive audio).increased sensitivity (99.95 decibels adjusted).only being compatible with the Xbox console.an increased battery life (to 24 hours).This version of the headset has some subtle differences including: One of the first things I noticed was that the headset seems to be a one-step upgrade from the previous model that was released in September 2020. Wireless Transmitter: Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S & Xbox One.The headset features controls on the side of the earcups that allow users to cycle through audio presets, adjust volume, and activate the Superhuman Hearing feature. The ear cushions are designed to be comfortable and work well with glasses. Users can hear immersive, spatial audio through 50mm speakers and can chat using the gen 2 flip-to-mute microphone.
