Turtle Beach Ear Force XP SEVEN Review

Rating: 9.0.

Today we will be taking a look at the Turtle Beach Ear Force XP Seven, aimed at professional gamers and enthusiasts alike. Packed with features such as customizable presets, an Audio Control Unit, adjustable surround sound angles, Dolby surround and even auxiliary input, Turtle Beach claims these headphones offer “the ultimate in game tournament and lifestyle performance”. These headphones come in at a hefty $279.95 or around £185 pounds inc vat.

So, should you be queuing up for the Ear Force XP Seven?

When Zardon asked me if I wanted to review Turtle Beach's latest high-end headphones my main concern was thinking of new ways to make playing games, listening to music and watching movies sound like hard work.

As you will see on the next pages, Turtle Beach provided enough material to keep me occupied, so let's dive in.

  1. These are a step up from the mainstream headphones people buy for their systems.

  2. A little expensive for me, but I can see why they cost as much. My cooler master headphones will have to do me a while longer!

  3. They are the market leaders. I spent a small fortune on their headphones last year and they are fantastic, much better than steelseries, razer et al.

  4. They need to make a blue tooth puc for the xp 500/510 to use on new xbox one. Or make a wireless version with optical connector
