What customers say about "Key Specs"

Turtle Beach Elite Pro Tournament Gaming Headset - PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X and PC

The earcups are soft and do help to alleviate the heat build up around your ears.
The headset is very comfortable and never tire out my head ( I wear glasses).
The headset is very comfortable overall. I have a large head with even larger ears and this headset still fits comfortably atop my head.
My ears don't get hot, my glasses aren't driven into my temple and, after hours of play, I still barely notice I'm wearing them.
The ears are big enough to go around my ears which make it easy to wear for long periods of time.
After playing for an extended period of time I noticed that the tension settings not enough to alleviate stress on my head they became too uncomfortable to continue playing with.

What customers say about "Headset"

Turtle Beach Elite Pro Tournament Gaming Headset - PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X and PC

The sound is actually pretty good without the amp. No hollow sounding cans her, firm tight bass and crisp but not piercing highs.
They're sound canceling as well, so you'll hear nothing but in game sounds, and that's best, especially I'm tournaments.
The sound quality and volume are excellent and the cool gel around the ears feels great for when I play.
If the headphones are on, they cancel out pretty much all outside noise, and the sound quality is great.
The sound is great with a lot of bass however, they don't go very high volume wise.
The sound is too low for me with it all the way up on the volume.

What customers say about "Microphone"

Turtle Beach Elite Pro Tournament Gaming Headset - PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X and PC

The mic detaches easily when you're not using it and the volume/mute are within easy reach.
The mic is probably the best out of other gaming headsets around the same price point.
Very clear microphone. Noise reduction is top notch.
Microphone is very clear. With the Audio Controller, you can adjust the input/output microphone on the fly.
The omni-directional microphone is a huge let down. The mic picked up way too much background noise for my gaming friends.

What customers say about "Features"

Turtle Beach Elite Pro Tournament Gaming Headset - PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X and PC

The gel they use in the earpieces allows me to play for extended session and, my ears don't get hot or sweat.
The 3.5mm headphone cable is a nice feature too and can be used with the 3.5mm port that's in the newer XB1 controllers or using the chat adapter.
Awesome sound and works great with both Xbox and PlayStation. Would definitely recommend and comfortable headset.
It sound great has adjustments and over all quality material good bass can really hear low sounding footsteps for those sneaky PvPs.
