Turtle Beach Ear Force Z6A PC Gaming Headset

 

The Turtle Beach Ear Force Z6A is a great gaming headset if you have a 5.1-channel sound card in your PC, but if you don't, you're going to needs some adapters.

Deep bass for a gaming headset. Feels comfortable.

Requires a 5.1-channel sound card or adapter. 5.1-channel sound isn]t compelling when compared with a true surround-sound system. Bright treble.

Review: Turtle Beach Ear Force Z6A

 

With its eye-catching black cups and blue and chrome trimming, the Z6A headset makes a good first impression. Extremely comfortable thanks to its light padding and forgiving hinges, Turtle Beach has done well to create a product that doesn't feel like...

Sounds Great - Breaks

cheaply made ; cord gets more and more stiff as though it is hardening ; sound control is too close to body. 3 feet ; too many controls on sound control without protect. always gets moved ; firmness of headset is always at head squishing vice setting....

Z6A Headset

 

I see a lot of people saying they are cheaply made and have broken. I have made SURE to keep these very well taken care of. I had another pair of these that I dropped all the time and ended up having to super glue and zip tie them to keep them together...

This is the best headset I have actually owned. I would have to say after owning this for over a year and treating it properly this thing has not let me down. The audio itself is VERY crisp and clear and you can hear everything you would ever want to...

The first one I bought did have a faulty wire inside. I quickly returned them to best buy where I purchased them and or dered another pair online
