customize their audio and program the headset's remappable dial and
button, as well as simultaneously listen to music or take mobile
calls while gaming. Xbox fans can once again take advantage of Xbox
Wireless technology which automatically connects the headset
directly to the console, while wireless game and chat on PS4 and
PS5 is handled through the included USB transmitter.

Upgrades to the Stealth
600 Gen 2 also include meticulously refined audio so gamers
have an even better chance to hear everything and defeat everyone,
as well as a larger high-sensitivity flip-to-mute mic that delivers
improved chat clarity and now seamlessly integrates into the
headset when muted. The Stealth 600 Gen 2's headband
and hinge design have been reinforced for added long-term
durability, and soft, glasses friendly ear cushions provide plush
comfort while refined 50mm speakers produce high-quality, immersive
game sound. A user-friendly audio preset button on the headset
allows for easy access to customize audio, and gamers can still
count on Turtle Beach's exclusive Superhuman
