Gaming with the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 is very easy. The headset we reviewed is designed to work with PC, PlayStation 4 (and PlayStation 5), and Nintendo Switch; an Xbox version is also available for both Xbox One and the upcoming Xbox Series X. Simply plug the headset’s dongle into your platform and stereo sound will be streamed to your ears. when the PlayStation 5 launches, the Stealth 600 Gen 2 will support the platform’s built-in spatial audio standard but PlayStation 4 will have to settle for stereo. Turtle Beach’s Stealth 600 Gen 2 is ideal for wireless gaming. It’s quite comfortable to wear, so you shouldn’t get tired even after long hours of gaming. It is also non-Bluetooth wireless and has low latency. We tested the PS4 variant but the Xbox One variant can also be purchased. Unfortunately, the bass is not very extended. The microphone is adequate for voice chat, but not particularly clean and clear for recording or streaming. The microphone is mounted on a rigid boom arm with limited movement, so there are few options for properly positioning the microphone in relation to your mouth. In test recordings, my voice was audible but lacked clarity and sounded a bit distant; the mics in Razer headsets such as the Nari Essential and the wired Blackshark V2 sound much better than this microphone. Also, for serious streaming and recording, we would recommend considering a dedicated USB microphone.
