True 5.1 headphones featuring 40mm surround drivers arrive in a brand new ‘Ergonomic and Acoustically Enhanced’ design.
Yonkers, NY (PRWEB) January 5, 2007 — Surround sound speaker systems have been considered the ultimate in gaming sound reproduction for years — but the cost, wiring clutter, and unwillingness of family and neighbors to participate in the auditory experience has always been a problem. Today, Turtle Beach has released a new solution to this problem with its latest surround sound headphones, the Ear Force X-52, which feature a front, center, surround and subwoofer speaker driver in each ear cup. Unlike most headphones, the X-52 can be easily folded into a compact size for convenient storage or for transport to gaming competitions or LAN parties.
The eight total speakers (four in each ear cup) provide a true surround sound experience, without disturbing friends, family or neighbors whether gaming, listening to music or watching movies. The X-52 also have a redesigned speaker array to give the listener an even more positionally accurate audio experience. The rear speakers have been enlarged to 40 mm to match the size of the front speakers, increasing the dynamic range and frequency response of audio designed to be heard ‘behind’ the head of the listener.
“We had a great response from our first round of surround sound headphones, the Ear Force HPA and X-51 models,” said Seth Dotterer, director of marketing for Turtle Beach. “We listened to the comments of our customers and feedback from professional gamers — and the X-52 are the resulting product. Between the comfort of the new enlarged cushions on the ear cups and the redesigned layout of the internal speaker system for the most accurate 3D positional audio cues — once you’ve tried these you’ll never want to listen to ordinary headphones again.”
In addition to the surround sound headphones, the retail X-52 package comes with a bonus carrying bag so the compact headphones can be easily carried, a removable mic with a flexible boom, and both 5.1 and stereo audio connectors.
The Ear Force X-52 have an MSRP of $79.95 and are available at retail outlets nationwide, as well as through the Turtle Beach website (www.TurtleBeach.com) and direct sales center (914-966-0600). For more information, visit www.turtle-beach.com/site/products/earforce/x52.
