Reviews around look (5.00 of 5)

  • I do love the retro look of the mike, but it isn't anywhere as reliable as other mikes I've used in the past
  • I think my favorite feature of this mic is that it's a GREAT looking device
  • (You have to change the mode on the button on the back, which I found a little strange.)This is a great looking microphone that is excellent for capturing voice and nearby sounds (other voices and games)
  • Anyway, I like the vintage look of it; makes me want to shout, "Good morning Vietnam

Reviews around stream (5.00 of 5)

  • It's definitely not going to be on par with the top streaming mics out there right
  • Built-in voice level mixing lets you hear game and chat audio through the microphone when headphones are plugged into the Stream Mic* Personalized Voice
  • Invest some money into a good streaming mic like a blue yeti, don't purchase this mic.
  • Flashy design and high end functionality make this streaming mic from Turtle Beach a winner
  • PC gamers tend to need a higher end rig to stream at high qualities with multiple attachments, while streaming directly through your PS4 or Xbox One is usually a lot easier but does not offer the same quality potential as streaming through a PC offers

Reviews around option (5.00 of 5)

  • Its easy to set up, with one option being for Xbox use, and the other working with both PS4 and PC
  • Listen this is not the same as buying a high dollar mic and a mixer but this is a good option for a mic
  • Id recommend a different microphone because of the sound quality however if you really want this microphone it will do what you want it to, theres simply better options available.

Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • This seemed like a super convenient product, as you can monitor your voice when plugging a headset directly into it
  • They make good products for the every day person that are really well made.

Reviews around setup (5.00 of 5)

  • If you want a mic for game streaming on all the systems, this is easy setup and play
  • We had a pretty nice microphone headset setup but he wanted something else.
  • I can say my old setup is better, but not as much as one would believe

Reviews around base (4.03 of 5)

  • I've been trying to find a cheap condenser-based for tabletop gaming conference calls, and this works beautifully.
  • I love the easy access mute button, right on the face, and that a nice heavy base with boom adapter are included with the mic.
  • The microphone looks cool and has a good base for keeping it in place
  • The base is stable, for desktop/tabletop use ... but if you happen to be streaming from a XBox One or a PS4 .. you won't be sitting at your desk

Reviews around thing (4.03 of 5)

  • The cool thing here is that the light around the mute button has multiple colors to let you know what setting you are on, but we will get more into that during the Design portion
  • It does some cool things, I just wish it took things one step further
  • The thing I'm missing most are gain controls because it picks up a lot of background noise
  • This thing screams poor quality
  • Balancing the microphone on the arm of a recliner or gaming chair is not the easiest thing

Reviews around sound (3.54 of 5)

  • It has a wonderful sound and quality great design! and holds on my mic stand perfectly!
  • I'm not a gamer, I'm a voice-over artist and I also narrate how-to videos for Youtube, and for the type of work I'll be doing, this mic seems to have pretty good audio quality (you can, of course, alter the sound to quite a great degree in the software that you're using, but you can't really improve any mic's actual fidelity)
  • If you are voice chatting or recording a headset may still give you better sound
  • and it's good to use as a mic when u talk with ur friends in a party or game chat, and has good mic sound.
  • The sound is very good for a microphone you're not wearing

Reviews around quality (3.29 of 5)

  • The quality of sound is great (or at least that is what other gamers have said when it is in use!).
  • I'm not a gamer, I'm a voice-over artist and I also narrate how-to videos for Youtube, and for the type of work I'll be doing, this mic seems to have pretty good audio quality (you can, of course, alter the sound to quite a great degree in the software that you're using, but you can't really improve any mic's actual fidelity)
  • Sound Quality: The sound quality on the mic is touted as “professional grade”, and that holds true in my opinion
  • It's not poor quality plastic, but when you have grey plastic trying to look like metal mesh, it just doesn't look like a pro tool
  • Everything about this mic screams "turtle beach typical quality"....and that not a good thing...feels cheap and goodluck finding a boom that it fits....after a month of trying this model

Reviews around background noise (1.29 of 5)

  • I also tested the mic on my PC and again very sensitive to any sounds, needs something to get rid of the background noise
  • The Turtle Beach has TruSpeak built into it which means that it easily picks up your voice without picking up on background noise like typing on the keyboard or mouse clicks.
  • The thing I'm missing most are gain controls because it picks up a lot of background noise
  • It doesn't reject any background noise
  • A tried it with a vacuum on in the other room and found no great reduction in background noise regardless of setting
