Turtle Beach Headset : Ear Force PX21 (PS3)

The Ear Force PX21 integrates premium stereo game sound with crystal-clear communication on the PlayStation Network (PSN), Xbox Live and PC/Mac to create the definitive audio environment for playing popular game titles on all platforms. The PX21 is two headsets in one—a stereo USB headset for chat sound and an amplified stereo headset for game sound. That means you can independently control chat and game sound from a single control box whether you’re playing PS3, Xbox or PC games. Large, comfortable ear cups with a lightweight, rugged design provide the ultimate in comfort during extended game play. The PX21 gives you a significant advantage because you can hear sound cues others can’t, so you’ll react faster and take them out before they take you out.

If you’re serious about your PS3, Xbox 360 or PC gaming, then get serious about the sound.

PX21 to a PC or Laptop

Connecting the PX21 to a PC or Laptop. When used as a PC gaming headset, the PX21 functions as two independent headsets in one package: Amplified Stereo Headphones: The green 3.5mm plug is used for sending the stereo game signal from the PC sound card to the PX21 headphone amplifier so you can hear game sounds, music and other sounds from your PC. The overall volume level is set by the Game volume control on the PX21 amplifier. USB Stereo Headset: The USB connection is used for mic and chat signals and appears as “Turtle Beach USB Headset” in Windows operating systems. This lets you assign the PX21 mic and chat in your game software as a USB audio device. You can set the microphone and chat levels independently with the Windows mixer software, as described elow. After configuring these volume settings, you can set the chat level with the Chat volume control on the PX21 amplifier. Note that each time you disconnect the PX21 from the USB port, the volume settings described below may revert back to their default settings. As such, you might have to go back and set them again each time you remove and insert the PX21 USB connector.

The Turtle Beach Ear Force PX21 stereo headset has been specially designed for use with the Playstation 3 for clear communication while you're playing your favourite games, and is also compatible with Xbox 360, PC and Mac.

The Ear Force PX21 USB headset eliminates feedback and includes a Chat Boost option to increase chat volume for different games. You can even control the volume of games and chat separately.
