Turtle Beach Ear Force P21 Gaming Headphones Review

Turtle Beach Ear Force P21 Any player that takes place at night, knows how important it is to have a solid set of headphones. We have examined the solutions in the past for the Xbox 360 Turtle Beach X4s and all-in-a Tritton AX Pro If your PlayStation 3 is the console of choice, May you want to check the ear P21. Even if we do not offer true 5.1 surround sound are very comfortable and offers many customization options to meet their gaming needs.


The P21s are black plastic. La banda connects the adjustable padded earcups, which are covered in a glossy black shell. Each cup is filled with a mesh fabric that we found comfortable on long series of games for PlayStation 3.


When stationary, the handset feels a little expensive, especially when the earcups attached to the head. There is a certain characteristic pits them - which is not the headset over the overall performance, most of us later.

the left earcup out the boom mic. It is quite long and fully adjustable, you should not harm perfectly. The tip of the microphone has two areas of hearing, his voice for one and one for the noise that the headset is off. We enjoyed the fact that the arm can rotate through 360 degrees of sight when not in use.

A few meters from the connection of children is on the line of control that can be clipped to your clothing, if desired. In the box you will find various switches and buttons that allow you to mute the microphone, monitor chat, games and low volume, as well as enable mode Expander (which seeks to make more noise). However, we have had time to play our best away.


Setting the P21 headset is very easy thanks to its ability to bypass the RCA analog audio connections. Doors can join right hook to his son a PlayStation 3 on your TV or receiver, avoiding the need to change the child, if you want to use the headset. The length of cable is also very generous, offering up to 16 feet to work with him. A USB extender allows you to connect your headset to your PS3 to chat.


While we welcome the support of stereo analog audio, we were a little disappointed to see that you can not use a digital optical audio connection with the P21. It also means that the headset is capable of producing surround sound, as we have seen in other products 5.1 Turtle Beach.


During our tests, we were impressed by the performance of the P21. We used the boom microphone to a pair of hands playing SOCOM: Confrontation that has produced concrete results. Our team was clearly heard and we were able to adjust the fit speak for our preference.


The sound quality is good, even with a stereo, we were able to say whether the blows were coming. However, the P21 is not a good job with sound insulation. If you use the headset, next to someone who will probably be able to hear what is happening around the earcups.


The P21 can also use a PC (or Mac) Gaming Headset. You can use the USB cable as a virtual sound card 1/8-inch-to-stereo-RCA or buy an adapter to connect to your main soundcard. In any case, the headset is good, adding to the total value of the product.

We liked the old P21 performance, we only support 5.1 surround sound. Price about $ 80 in May to find another town, if you need more than the PlayStation 3 game sessions. The company produces 5.1 surround sound headphones - X4 - twice the price, but can be used with a wide range of home theater. However, it does not work with PS3 chat in the game, only sound.


The other alternative is the Tritton AX Pro 5.1 for about $ 150, which can lead to confusion in May to implement, but offers near-universal compatibility.
