The Ear Force XP500 is the most technologically-advanced headset ever designed for Xbox 360 and PS3
gaming. To get the most from
your XP500, please take a few minutes to review this introduction.
Digital RF Technology with Bluetooth
The Ear Force XP500 headset provides wireless CD-quality game sound via digital RF radio frequency) that communicates with the XP500
transmitter. In addition, the XP500 incorporates Bluetooth technology which is used for communicating on Xbox LIVE
and on PlayStation
Network PSN). The Bluetooth can also be paired to your mobile phone and digital music player. This means you can use your XP500 to
listen to your favorite music and accept phone calls – all while totally immersed in the action of the game.*
* Only 2 Bluetooth devices total can be connected to the headset at a time.

Dolby® Surround Sound
The XP500 transmitter processes Dolby Digital surround sound from your Xbox 360 or PS3 and sends it to the headset via digital RF.
The result is an immersive sound environment that makes you feel as if you're right in the middle of the action. It also helps you react
quicker by hearing exactly where the sound cues in the game are coming from.
Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
The headset uses digital signal processing to customize the game, chat and microphone audio signals to improve performance in specic
gaming situations. These settings are stored as presets that can be easily called up to change the characteristics of the game sound,
voices from other players and even your own voice. For example, you can use the XP500 to accentuate sounds like footsteps or enemies
reloading that might otherwise be difcult to hear with normal game audio.
Programmable Presets
The integrated USB port lets you connect your XP500 to a PC. Go to TurtleBeach.com and download new presets, program your own
custom presets and update your headset with new features and more. That means you can customize your XP500 and turn it into your own
secret weapon” that’s unlike anyone else’s headset!
Intuitive Voice prompts
The XP500 incorporates intuitive voice prompts that announce critical headset status. Press the preset button and you'll hear the number.
When the batteries need to be replaced, it tells you in advance. When powering on or off, you’ll hear an announcement.
Engineered for High-Quality Sound
The XP500 headset is designed to deliver high-quality audio that makes it ideal for gaming, movies and digital music playback.
The high-delity, 50mm speakers are encased in acoustically-tuned ear cups with soft fabric cushions and deliver extended bass
with extraordinary dynamic range for optimum audio performance.

Transmitter Range
The transmitter sends game audio from your Xbox 360 or PS3
to the headset via digital radio frequency RF) signal, so a direct line of
sight is not required. When you’re out of range, you may hear popping or clicking sounds if the headset loses the RF signal. For best perfor-
mance, place the transmitter in an open area that is unobstructed by objects that might absorb RF signals from the internal antenna.
Avoid placing it on a metal surface, such as the top of a home theater A/V receiver.
When the transmitter and headset are communicating, the top LED on the front of the transmitter will be on. If this LED is slowly pulsing,
it means the transmitter can’t communicate with the headset. This could happen if the headset is turned off, out of range or needs
to be paired”.
Using Wired Headphones
The transmitter can only communicate with one wireless headset, so two wireless headsets cannot be used with the same transmitter.
The headphone jack on the front of the transmitter can be used to connect a set of wired headphones for listening to the Dolby Surround
Sound game sound being transmitted to the wireless headset.* The volume control above the jack sets the volume of the wired headset
and does not affect the volume of the wireless headset.
* Since presets are governed by the XP500 headset, the presets do not apply to a second wired headset.
