![]() ![]() The amp itself is a single-function, aluminum volume knob. Then you connect to the amp via Bluetooth, and open the Turtle Beach Audio Hub app on your smartphone, which is where you can easily select and adjust settings. The setup easily stretched across my living room with plenty of cable to spare. Here's how it works: You connect the 7-foot long 3.5mm headset cable to the SuperAmp, and then connect the SuperAmp to your console via a generous 10-foot long micro USB cable. Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 – SuperAmp and Mobile App Now, all that’s been moved to a mobile app that connects to the SuperAmp via Bluetooth. Typically, the company would clutter this area with things like chat mixing controls, buttons for changing sound modes and a volume wheel, which has always made finding the right adjustment without taking the headset off difficult. Compared to the A40 though, the included plates are flimsy and detract from the otherwise premium feel of the headset.Īs far as inputs and outputs go, there’s a 3.5mm headphone jack and an input for the included boom mic tucked under the left earcup, and that’s it. Pull them off and underneath you’ll find four magnets and more plastic. Similar to the Astro A40, the Elite Pro 2 features magnetic earcup plates that can be customized. Pull the magnetic earcup pads away and you’ll see the large 50mm drivers that give the Elite Pro 2s their oomph. That's huge for someone who wears glasses. Mated with the inch-thick memory foam earcup pads and a glasses-friendly ProSpecs design, I was able to play for hours without discomfort. Imagine my surprise when after a few hours of playing Spider-Man I forgot they weren’t gaming headphones with a traditional band. I have a rather large, oblong head, and it has never gotten along with spring-band type headphones, Sony’s Platinum PlayStation 4 headset being the most recent example. When I first saw this pair, I sighed when I spotted the suspension headband mechanism.

The result is an understated, minimal look that doesn’t draw unneeded attention to itself. Compared to its predecessor, the Elite Pro 2 has fewer lines, less screen-printing and employs glossy plastic accents and brushed aluminum in addition to a textured matte finish. The Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp is all about refinement. Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp – Design and Features The new Elite Pro 2 is offered in versions for either Xbox or Playstation, so PC gamers will have to stick with the older model, for now. Unlike the previous Elite Pro’s Tactical Audio Controller (TAC), the new version swaps out a breakout box with multiple sliders for a Bluetooth-connected hardware wheel and a mobile app to streamline the operation a bit. The reason for the price bump is because it now has surround sound and an included SuperAmp control unit. As its name suggests, this headset sits near the top of the company’s lineup and commands an unsurprisingly high price of $249 a $50 premium over the previous Elite Pro model. The Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp is the latest wired 7.1 surround sound headset from Turtle Beach ( See it on Amazon).
