Hear that? That's the sound of a million new products being introduced
here in Vegas... in glistening 7.1 Dolby surround sound, no less.
Turtle Beach has just ushered out its new flagship device, the Ear
Force PX5. Designed for use with Sony's PlayStation 3 (but perfectly
usable with the Xbox 360 or any other audio source), this here gaming
headset is wireless in nature and is the company's first to
incorporate dual radios -- one for surround sound, and another for
chatting on the PlayStation Network via Bluetooth. This is also the
first of its kind to incorporate customizable presets; there's a DSP
chip that lives inside, and the bundled software interface allows you
to program voice prompts, custom EQ, compressors, Bass Boost, etc.
Then, those settings are saved right on the headset, enabling your CPU
to take a breather while the cans themselves handle the math.
Moreover, the BT feature can be used to accept mobile phone calls or
listen to audio streams, and if you needed any more reason to invest,
it also supports voice morphing. You heard right -- it can be
programmed to disguise a gamer's voice, which is partially awesome,
and partially the worst thing ever to happen to online chat. Hop on
past the break for the full feature list, and look for this one to
land in the Spring for $249.95.
