on the competition, you owe it to yourself to check it out because this headset

Nick “Ashes” Ridgeway, Assistant

well as being a coach on the front line myself, there are crucial features we
need in a headset to be at the top of our game. The Turtle Beach Elite
Pro 2 + SuperAmp checks all of those boxes for us: crisp voice
communication, detailed sounds, and our own customized EQ so we always have the
audio advantage over our competition.”
The Elite Pro 2 headset’s audio

with a removable high-sensitivity noise-cancelling mic with TruSpeak™ technology for crystal-clear
communication with teammates. The Elite Pro 2 headset also sports a sleek
and durable metal headband with a suspended pad, Turtle Beach’s patented ProSpecs™ glasses friendly
design, and magnetic AeroFit™
cooling gel-infused memory foam ear cushions featuring athletic sport fabric
and synthetic leather working together to block out external noise while
keeping players cool and comfortable under fire. Additionally, easily swappable
magnetic deco plates allow players to customize their Elite Pro 2, with an
assortment of deco plate designs planned to be available for purchase this
holiday season.

entirely new way for players to control their game audio. This one-dial gaming
audio controller provides powerful amplified Windows Sonic for Headphones
surround sound on Xbox One and compatible Windows 10 PCs, and DTS®
Headphone:X® 7.1 channel surround sound on PS4™ and PC, and connects
via Bluetooth® to the Turtle Beach
