Turtle Beach® Ear Force® X1 Xbox® Headphones Provide Competitive Edge, Stereo Game Audio and Xbox Live Chat
- New X1 Model on display at E3 Expo with popular X2, HPA and XBL Models -
Yonkers, NY, 05/10/2006 --
Following up on the early buzz and retail success of its Ear Force X2 headphones, Turtle Beach today unveils its new Ear Force X1 headphones for the Xbox 360 and Xbox systems. Like the X2 model, the Ear Force X1s deliver stereo game audio and Xbox Live chat directly to gamers’ ears for a totally immersive experience and a competitive edge. The Ear Force X1s are also ideal for gaming anytime day or night without disturbing others in the room or home.
Featuring a wired configuration between the headphones and the game console, the Ear Force X1 headphones can be used in a competitive or multi-player setting without game and chat audio interference from the other gamers. Coordinating strategy and swapping trash talk online is accomplished via a durable microphone with an adjustable boom that can be moved to any preferred position for precise placement, or away from the gamers’ face in between battles. While designed for the Xbox and Xbox 360 gaming consoles, the Ear Force X1s can also be used with PC or laptop games.
"Our Ear Force line of headphones has recently been named the Official Headsets of Major League Gaming (MLG)," said Seth Dotterer, director of marketing for Turtle Beach. "The introduction of the Ear Force X1s provides the most intense and sonically-true gaming experience for competitive gaming events."
Before the introduction of the Ear Force X2 and X1 headphones, Xbox gamers had to resort to hearing chat in one ear and mono game sound in the other. Now gamers can get all the audio they need to compete – every crash, explosion and footstep of their virtual worlds and trash talk from online competitors – while blocking out all outside distractions.
Members of the press attending the E3 Expo are encouraged to stop by South Hall Booth 700 for a demonstration.
