Turtle Beach - Recon 70X

i reckon cheap shit for gaming. turtle beach recon 50xs are like 30-40 dollars and have a mic that works with xbox so you can chime in. they sound fine. lighter than the recon 70x which i had to modify to make comfortable. for personal headphones tho, Sony XM4s are apparenlty the best. I liked my beats studio 3s more, but they sound worse and kept breaking on the hinges. you can still use an aux in to an xbox controller with either tho

Dude, I legit have only used Turtle Beach Recon X70's for so long. 40 bucks every 3ish years is fine by me and always has been. I've very picky when it comes to how headsets feel and audio quality. I tried Astro A10's and hated them. I tried other "higher end" Turtle Beaches and hated them. I also don't have the luxury of buying high end headphones and the fact the X70's have a flip to mute mic, give good audio, feel comfortable to wear and don't give me issues until I need a new headset just makes my life so much easier.

Exactly. I'm pretty sure they can work on PC but I dont want to claim something that isnt true. I've used them ever since they released the X70's and I, unfortunately, made the mistake of thinking the Recon Sparks would be just as good. The major issue I have with the X70's is the actual band of the headset wears out. I'm a big dude and have a big head so the plastic just gives after a few years. My most recent pair of X70's broke and I went to both of the Walmarts in my town and they didn't have them in stock and so I had to go to Target and the only ones they had were these really ugly pink Recon X70's or the Recon Spark. I figured the Spark would be fine as they are essentially the X70's with some extra stuff - boy was I wrong. They honestly sound worse and aren't as comfortable lol. The metal reinforced headband is just ass. The ear pieces down slide nearly as far down and the audio quality, despite supposedly using the same drivers, sounds more muddy and muted than the X70's

Even cheap options have decent sound quality Had a TB Recon 70 until the mic got damaged during a move a few years back. Worked amazing for online play and only cost me about $40.

I've been using a set from Turtlebeach for literally 9 years now, and they still work great. Just basic wired headphones, with microphone, that plug into my controller. Several inexpensive options on their website. https://www.turtlebeach.com/collections/headsets?sortKey=PRICE&reverse=false&Platform=1.Xbox&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22500622444&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9obIBhCAARIsAGHm1mT4GjBUU6FhOYwoNK8fXA8sU1GXfLNlc9MJFM9vKEJAB3yVQO5m4gwaAoVJEALw_wcB

My girl has the hyperx cloud. She has no complaints about the sound. But after a year, the earpiece material is deteriorating. For comparison, I got Turtle Beach Gen70 for $25 last xmas and its still holding up on all fronts

Turtle beach has some cheap wired headsets that work well if you’re on a tight budget. I think the one I had was a recon.

Turtlebeach Recon works great. Used to be like $20 at Walmart

Turtlebeach recons are like $30 and pretty good for the price, they’re wired (good since it’s just plug and play) and they fold up neatly to carry easily. Razer also has some cheap headsets like the BlackShark, might be worth looking into them too.

I second the Recon recommendation. I've had mine for almost 3 years now and paid $12 for it, and it still works pretty much the way it did when I bought it. My only complaints are that the earpiece well isn't deep enough to not touch my ear, and the flexible microphone rod occasionally will drift away from my mouth. Aside from that, it's hard to beat for the price.

Not great had two recons kill themselves after 1 year and am on a stealth 600 on the way out. Decent features but piss poor long term quality.
