3 out of 5 stars
It's all right.
It has an amazing mic, it's very comfortable, and the sound quality is spectacular. It's a great headset. Except they made the extendable straps a little too thin. I saw the reviews where customers had theirs for a short period, then they broke. I just assumed they were being too rough. Well, I was wrong. Maybe too rough for the thin straps it is made with, but for any other headset it wouldn't be like this.Basically, four days ago, I was removing my headset and barely pulled to the left of my head. It didn't over stretch it, it wasn't a ridiculous width that it went to. You know how it is, where you grab one side and slide it off in that direction and the other side comes over your head? It snapped. The left strap, close to the ear piece. I can't afford another headset right now and, go figure, it's been about 2 months since I bought this one, so I can no longer return it. What did I do? I super glued it and wrapped a thin layer of tape around it. Wearing it right now like this.Probably won't be buying another headset like this. At least, next time, I'm going to take some of those reviews a little more seriously. I apologize for the dusty desk in the photo. Adding an image of my broken strap.

    This headset is amazing, great sound quality. It has surround sound and works great. The mic also has outstanding quality.
    Since the ear pads are made of really soft foam they don't block sound out that great.

    Initially, I was very happy with these headsets. The sound quality is fantastic, with crisp sound and powerful bass and great volume range, and as a pc gamer the 7.1 surround sound was immersive and fun. The mic was also very responsive and didn't pick up a lot of background noise. They worked great for almost a year, but then I realized a fatal flaw in the design structure of these headsets; all the strain gets put on the thinnest piece of plastic in the frame. As you'll see in some of the other reviews for this product, the plastic piece that separates the earpiece from the overhead arch WILL BREAK EVENTUALLY, no matter how gentle you are with them. One broke while I was literally just wearing the dang thing. Mine only lasted a year and a couple months before I was holding it together with duct tape and pieces of credit cards (cards have the same flexibility/sturdiness of the frame, so it works as a makeshift frame; but now I can't adjust the size anymore).
    Other than that, one problem that's annoying is the volume knob... mine started doing this weird glitch where turning it up or down will cause either the left or right earpiece to completely turn off sporadically. I have no idea why it does this. The only way to fix it is to slide the volume up and down until you find the setting that has equal volume for both ears (it's almost like dialing the signal for an old time radio). After doing some research, I learned I'm not the only one who has had this problem, so I'm guessing the error lies in the design rather than a unique fluke with my product.
    My review used to be 5 stars, and I'm sad to lower it like this. While its sound quality is superb and the mic has reaped no complaints from my online friends (hence why my review maintained 2 stars), the poor structural quality and design of this headset gives it a terrible lifespan which, in my opinion, does not justify the lower price it boasts in the realm of headsets. I can no longer recommend this product in good conscience.
    I hope this has helped.

    I love the headphones. I wore them 12 hours straight with no discomfort at all. They have amazing sound quality, when playing CS:GO I can hear EVERY movement. Listening to music with these from my phone is just as amazing as playing games on my computer. I only have 1 complaint and this one is huge. The plastic they're made out of is cheap and cracks easily. I've had them for 5 months exactly and the right ear cup is cracked along the very top of it. not too long ago a piece on the left cracked too but nothing bad happened from it. With this new crack the right side is loose and doesn't hold onto my ear as it should. I attempted to superglue it back together but to no avail. Even with that huge downside, because how amazing they were I am going to get them again, I just hope they last longer than 5 months this time.

    The media could not be loaded.
    After having this headset for two months, it is a decent product, but could be so much better. The surround sound is cool, but like others have said, it's very much like being in a room too big for the speakers your given. Now that alone wouldn't bother me too much, but I am now 2 months into my purchase and the left earpiece extender has completely broken. I have a larger head so I have to have it extended, otherwise it won't even go over half of my ears. I make slight adjustments depending on the feel overall but it should not break as easily as it did a few moments ago for me.

    I am very disappointed and feel like I should have gone for the more expensive option with the Z60. At least I would not regret buying it since it's made of stronger material. I feel cheated out of $80 that I spent (and that was with the discount on Amazon that was offered on launch day; it would've been $90 otherwise).

    I honestly think I can do without the surround sound and may possibly go back to my old TB headphones while I wait on support to answer my email.

    EDIT (1/31/15): The good news is that TB customer support was wonderful and willing to repair my headset without me having to buy another or paying for more than just shipping and handling. The BAD NEWS is none of that matters since two weeks after the replacement came in, the left ear broke AGAIN. I'm also sure this was a brand new headset and the fact that it lasted a shorter period of time when compared to the one I got in store is disheartening. I am furious. My Turtle Beach 500P headset for my PS4 is more durable than this (*knock on wood* because for God's sake if something happens to that headset I'm swearing off Turtle Beach headsets for life).

    Don't let the picture fool you. The plastic for these headphones is the reason why they are cheaper than their more expensive counterparts. You get what you pay for, I guess. As long as you don't have a big head, this is a decent entry level gaming headset for people on a tight budget. If you are like me though and purchase for the long haul and think of value over time, AVOID THESE AND DON'T TURN BACK.

    As for me, I'm going to do more research and probably go for one of the Astro Gaming Headsets, most likely the wireless one.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Me encanta
    Reviewed in Mexico on October 3, 2017
    Nunca me han convencido los headset de la marca, he tenido dos uno alambrico incomodo y de mala calidad de audio, y otro inalambrico que se comia las baterias de inmediato y era aun mas incomodo por el peso, pero estos son muy diferentes.

    Son audífonos muy ligeros, al cubrir por completo la oreja no cansan en sesiones largas, como todos los de la marca, giran cuando no se usen para llevarlos cómodamente en el cuello. Su principal función es por USB a una PC, se baja el software de la marca y listo, quedan en 7.1. El sonido es bueno, el 7.1 se siente bien, el pero es que le falta un poco al bajo, comprensible en este precio. Algo que no se menciona, pero que es muy importante es que por el diseño no son tan aislantes, dejan pasar mucho sonido externo, para mi esto es ideal ya que prefiero estar consciente de mis alrededores, pero para algunos no sera tan de su agrado.

    El micrófono tiene la siempre útil función de poder escuchar tu propia voz, aunque se debe tener muy pegado el micrófono a la boca para escucharse con claridad, es mas fácil escucharte a traves del sonido que dejan pasar los audífonos del exterior que por la función que realiza el micrófono, este se puede retirar cuando no este en uso, igualmente pueden cambiar el cable USB por un auxiliar de 3.5 estándar para poder usarlo con cualquier dispositivo.

    En general estoy ampliamente sorprendido de lo bien que funcionan comparándolos con su bajo precio, son cómodos, versátiles y cumplen a la perfección con su cometido.

    5.0 out of 5 stars OTTIME CUFFIE SURROUND!!!
    Reviewed in Italy on January 8, 2016
    Le prime cuffie Turtle Beach che ho comprato era un modello In-Ear abbastanza economiche, ma dalla qualità audio (soprattutto per la musica) eccelsa. Andando sicuro sul brand, ho preso queste cuffie Surround 7.1. Dopo svariate prove posso dire di essere estremamente soddisfatto della qualità generale del prodotto e di quella dell'effetto Surround. E' IMPORTANTE SCARICARE DAL SITO UFFICIALE GLI APPOSITI DRIVER altrimenti la cuffia si comporterebbe come una normale cuffia Stereo. Per i film in Blu-Ray è assurdo, sembra di essere al cinema ed è quindi un ottimo compromesso economico ad un sistema Home Theatre (anche se l'effetto è leggermente differente...). Per il gaming, ovvero il motivo per cui nascono, sono formidabili! In giochi come Call of Duty o Battlefild la direzionalità del suono è impressionante e quindi il coinvolgimento nel gioco diventa a 360 gradi. Consigliatissime per film e gaming però non mi sento di consigliarvele per quanto riguarda l'ascolto puramente musicale perché il suono potrebbe risultare troppo chiaro e carente di bassi. In tal caso optate per Beats o Bose.
