Thanks Techne for the quick review. I was waiting for you to post this because I have these ordered on Amazon, and I'm glad I got to watch this beforehand, because after watching this, it really doesn't seam like a huge improvement over my Gen 2's, which mine are still almost brand new. I think it looks like I'll cancel my order and save my $200. Very informative for sure. :)

@jamesstevens968 i also have the maxwells. I tried to like them and they really sound amazing. They are very uncomfortable for me and the sidetone hiss is unacceptable for a 300 Headset. I am going to return and keep the 700 gen 3.
@BiggBawse3 ай бұрын
They made that arm piece metal because in the previous gen 2s, alot of people would experience it breaking at that same point. If you look on Amazon reviews for the gen 2s, it would break there. I myself had went through two of those same gen 2s and it would break at that same exact point. So I think this is going on the right direction as far as durability.
@MrFlamethrower323 ай бұрын
The gen 2s are still the best sounding wireless headset ive ever used. I tried the nova pro wireless, and they werent even close. The gen 2s sound is so punchy and immersive. Only one that came close for me was the stealth pro, but i returned them because i realized my 3 year old gen 2s are still better for me, especially with the gel earpads, and amazing mic monitoring

You should definitely not have wasted your money on the pros... A lot of the headsets are having an issue that has happened on 3 separate different pairs I've had (Replacements) At some point they go robotic when answering calls and in order to fix said robotics you have to reboot the headset. Really wish I'd not wasted my money on them. Especially when I had this same issue on the set I bought on day of release and now, again with this most recent set I bought a year ago. This is clearly not a problem they are ever going to fix.

I have the stealth 700 Gen 2. When I am gaming and get a phone call i am able to talk on the phone and hear the game audio. However if I am on a call and also in game chat or party, i am not able to talk with my party. With the Gen 3 is there a way to switch from Bluetooth to game /party chat so you can talk with your teammates?

Good review. I'd appreciate if you could address some questions that weren't addressed: 1) Is the bluetooth volume wheel completely independent from console/pc sound? Previously, you could control BT, but only up to the max of the master audio coming from the dongle 2) When using BT to chat (phone call/discord/etc), does it still lower automatically the main dongle audio by around 50% ? 3) When using BT to chat, can you use the configurable wheel to chatmix between dongle (game) and BT (chat) ?

@@DiabolusBR i own them and i’ll answer that for you since i’m here lol. The bt volume wheel IS independent from the rest of the sound. It controls the audio coming from whatever you are connected to via bt. It does, just like the previous gen 2’s lower the volume when taking calls. The configurable wheel has 4 configurations. 1. Mic monitor volume, 2. Bass boost level. 3. Treble boost level, and 4. Noise gate volume. Only way i could think to really chatmix in the way that i think you are is balancing dongle and bt volume to the point where you’d like. Although if it’s a chat via bt it would cut the volume from the dongle so it’d make it kinda difficult

How are they?

@steelfan187 i really like them so far. I hated the 600 gen 2s. But they improved a lot. The weight takes a bit to get used too but they are comfy. I haven't been able to customize hearing settings yet but they are loud / sometimes I think they could b louder. The 2 dongles to the left I have to keep scrolling a lot to go high or low which I find super annoying. Hope I can change the speed to b faster. But over all I give it like a solid 8.5 almost 9 I'm really satisfied.

Does the volume button mix the volume of chat and game or just game volume? I hate my Audeze Penrose, where I have to click the wheel down and move it for chat. It never gets a good balance

Does Wicked Cushion make hybrid cooling gel earpads for the Stealth 700s? I see rounded ones for the stealth pros but not the angled versions

Be careful, I have my new Stealth 700 (Gen 3) and it has problems. Dropping sound, showing it is connected but no sound is playing. Additionally, often it makes some disaster sound. I have to reconnect them few times. it looks like it is some Swarm 2 software problem or firmware. Additionally, randomly, when connecting for first time after computer start, the sound is disaster as well, have to reconnect few times or even restart Swarm 2 app. Reinstalling app, resetting all to default did not help. Happening constantly. On the top of that, they auto turn-off after certain time even I disabled auto-turn off in Swarm 2 app. Very frustrating. I have the headphones for 3 days and I want to throw them to the bin. If turtlebeach won't resolve the problem I will request refund.

I have the same issues too. another issue where when i lower the mic all the way, it mutes. So from mute it unmutes until about half way down and mutes again.
