Works With PS3, XBOX 360, PC & Mac
The PX21 is a Universal Headset that works on all major gaming platforms. The microphone can be used with PSN, XBOX LIVE and PC chat for clear communication while hearing the game in full-bandwidth stereo sound. When used on a PC or Mac, the headset works as two separate headsets in one. The stereo USB section lets you control VoIP programs such as Skype, Ventrilo, and Teamspeak with the chat volume control on the amplifier unit, while the stereo game audio from your sound card output is controlled by the game volume control. This lets you use the PX21 amplifier controls to balance the chat and game sound while playing games on your PC, just as you would on the PS3 or XBOX LIVE. The Chat Boost feature also works on PC chat signals, so you’ll always hear what others are saying, regardless of how loud the game gets.
Rotating Ear Cups
Twist the ear cups to rest the PX21 flat on your shoulders when taking a break from the game.
Stereo Expander
The Stereo Expander enhances the sounds coming from the left and right sides and decreases sounds that are in the center, allowing you to “tune in” to sound cues from enemies that might be sneaking up on you. When turned on, the expander makes the stereo field seem “wider”, as if it originates from outside the headset, which makes the game sound more dramatic than standard stereo.
Chat Boost – Dynamic Talkback Expander
The Chat Boost feature automatically increases the chat levels during intense game sequences, so communication from teammates isn't drowned out. As the game audio gets louder, the chat volume is automatically increased - which lets you continue to hear what everyone is saying. When the game volume quiets down, the chat level will gradually return to the normal volume setting. You can see it working by looking at the chat level light, which gets brighter as the game get louder and the chat level increases. It's a simple solution to an annoying problem, and it all happens automatically – so you don't have to adjust anything!
Microphone Monitoring
If you're wearing a headset, it's difficult to hear yourself speak, so you'll tend to talk louder. To address this, the PX21 incorporates microphone monitoring. Just like a telephone, the PX21 mixes a small portion of the mic signal into the headphone signal, so you can hear some of your voice along with the online chatting and game audio. This lets you easily sense what you're saying, but not so much that it's distracting. Mic monitoring not only helps you stop talking so loud, it also eliminates that annoying "clogged ears" feeling when talking while headphones are covering your ears.
Bass Boost
The PX21 headset incorporates an adjustable bass boost feature that produces deep, rich bass tones by increasing the volume of low frequency sounds – just like turning up the subwoofer on a home theater system. This can improve your gaming experience by gradually enhancing the sound of explosions, gun shots and other deep-bass sound effects to make them even more dramatic. Bass boost can be manually adjusted with a dial on the amplifier. You might want to do this, for example, when using the Ear Force PX21 for listening to music that requires a flat frequency response for truer reproduction.
Independent Chat/Game Volumes
Conventional communicator earpiece headsets compromise your gaming experience by covering one ear for hearing chat audio and leaving the other ear for hearing game audio pumping from speakers. The PX21 overcomes this problem by combining impactful stereo game audio with online chat in a high fidelity stereo headset – delivering the ultimate gaming experience with privacy and clarity. There are independent volume controls for the game audio and incoming chat levels - so you can easily balance them and never have to worry about missing a cue from your teammates.
USB Powered
A single USB port powers the in-line amplifier, so there is no need to fuss with batteries or a separate AC power adapter.
Customer Reviews
Not Perfect But Can Help Make You A Better Gamer
I bought this based on someone talking about it in a SOCOM match. The reviews here also were good. First off, I don't have a true surround system. You really need that when playing shooter type games to hear where your enemy is around you. This headset does a pretty good job in helping you locate the enemy. But it is far from perfect. First off, its not built that well for the price. In "Stereo Expander" mode there is a loud background hiss. Chat Boost does not work at all. The quality of the headphone speakers are what you would expect from a $[...] pair of headphones. I know headphone quality, I have headphones ranging in price from $[...] to $[...]. And one of the most annoying things about this headset is the noise the plastic makes every time you move your head. All that being said, you can hear much more in a game then you would normally. I play SOCOM and my gameplay got better because now I can hear people walking around and tell which direction they are from me. The increase in my score was enough that if offsets all the negative things about this headset.
PROS
Long Cord
Easy Set Up
Helps you locate the enemy in shooter games
Separate game and voice volume controls
Bass Boost works moderately well
Seems sturdy enough to last awhile
You can turn the mic off
Good for when you want to not play and wake people up
CONS
Background hiss in expanded mode
Materials make noise whenever you move
Sound quality not that great
Earphone cups are a little small
Chat Boost doesn't work, at least not in SOCOM: US Navy Seals Confrontation Stand Alone
Overall, if you don't have surround and play shooter type games I recommend it. Otherwise, I would not bother.
UPDATE: Keep an eye on the metal pin that holds the clip in place. It barely locks in and can work its way out. Took about 15 minutes to get it back in, pain in the butt. So check to see if its working its way out every so often.
Hissing ruins this product
There's a hissing sound that never goes away. It goes up and down with the chat volume. Even with the chat volume at its lowest, you can still hear the hissing sound. This issue is known to Turtle Beach. They claim that you cannot really hear it when the game sounds are going. The only problem is that if you turn up the chat volume to hear the chat over the game sounds, the hissing gets louder too.
If you can put up with the constant hissing sound, this is a good product. It mixes the game audio and chat, and gives you seperate volume control for each. For me, the hissing is a killer. In addition to chat, I wear headphones to hear all the small details in the game, such as footsteps, etc.
Call of Duty Widow
My husband is a remarkably talented gamer. He's plays everything from "Ghosbusters" to "Little Big Planet," from "Modern Warfare 2" to "Rock Band" to NSMB. He's played almost every system available in the USA, but prefers the diversity of PS3. Out of necessity, he mastered the art of playing with the TV on mute (a courtesy to me, we all know how late things can go). But all that changed, this past holiday season when his amazingly thoughtful wife (that would be me!) bought him a brand spanking new pair of these! So far, he's had nothing but positive things to say. Specifically, he's mentioned the volume controls, overall flexibility and comfort, chat boost, the surround sound effect, and crispness of in game sound. So he gives it an A in gaming and I give it an A+ for letting me sleep :)
