Operating Instructions

Chat + Wireless Game Audio

Connecting Music Players

The X3 may be used for listening to other

audio sources, such as the output of your

TV, the output of your PC sound card, an

MP3 player, home theater system, etc.

For example, the illustration below shows

how to connect the X3 to the output of a

home theater system. In this case, the

transmitter audio input would be

connected to the stereo line output on the

home theater receiver. In some systems,

this would be the recording line output,

typically used for a cassette recorder, while

on other systems it would be a

pre-amplifier line output. Refer to the

instructions included with your unit for

details.

The volume control on the X3 transmitter

should be set to maximum and the volume

control on the headphone should be

adjusted to a comfortable level. If the

sound is distorted because the audio

source output is too loud, then the volume

control on the transmitter should be

reduced to a lower level that better

accommodates the source volume.

Using the X3 with a Plasma TV

Some plasma TVs generate IR signals that

can be picked up by the headphones as a

background "buzz" or "crackling". This is not

unique to the X3 headphones--all analog IR

headphones exhibit this problem with

plasma TVs. The noise is usually noticeable

when there is no audio playing through the

Xbox, such as when the game menu is

displayed or just before the game begins.

Once the game sound starts playing, the X3

IR signal overpowers the interference so it's

significantly reduced or completely

eliminated.

Because plasma IR interference decreases

as you move further away from the screen,

the noise may be more noticeable if your TV

is located in a small room. Also, if the X3

transmitter is placed too low, too high or too

far to the side of the plasma screen, its IR

signal will be reduced because it's not in

direct line-of-sight with the headphones. As

a result, the plasma IR interference may be

stronger than the X3 signal, causing the

background noise to occur.

To maximize the X3 transmitter IR signal

intensity and minimize the plasma noise,

place the transmitter either in direct line of

sight with the headphones, or closer to the

headphones and further away from the

plasma screen, as illustrated:

Step 1:

the Line In jack on

Step 2:

Configuring Xbox Settings

To make sure that you can easily control

Xbox Live chat volume, please make sure

that the following settings are configured

on your Xbox (These are the default Xbox

settings).

1. From the Xbox 360 Dashboard, press

the Xbox Guide button (the X button in the

center of your controller) to access your

Xbox Live Settings.

2. Navigate to the "Settings" selection, and

press the "A" button on your controller.

Then select “Preferences”.

3. Select "Voice" from the following menu,

and press "A".

4. On the Voice screen, make sure that

"Play Through Headset" is selected for

Voice Output selection and that volume is

set to 10 (see below).

5. You can fine tune game audio and chat

volumes using the X3 amplifier and chat

volume controls.

Important Information

Be careful when turning on the

headphones volume control.

Before placing the headphones over your

ears, set the volume control to minimum,

then slowly increase until you reach a

comfortable level.

Use only the supplied power adapter.

Failure to use the correct power adapter

can result in fire and permanent damage

to the transmitter unit.

Do not over-drive the headphones. Like any

speakers, playing the sound too loud on

the headphones may cause damage to

both the headphones and your ears.

Please take care to listen at moderate

levels.

WARNING: Long term exposure to loud

music or other sounds in headphones may

cause hearing damage. It is best to avoid

extreme volume levels when using

headphones, especially for extended

periods. Over time, your ears adapt to the

volume level, so a level that may not cause

initial discomfort might still damage

your hearing.

Tips

1. When the headphones are powered on,

you can hear yourself speak into the mic,

which is a good way to test if the

headphones have shut down to save

battery power.

2. Although the headphones will continue

to operate even on low battery power, the

performance will degrade as the batteries

begin to drop in voltage. Be sure to change

the batteries if you sense that the

headphones are less sensitive than usual,

or the sound is distorting, regardless of

volume settings.

3. The headphones work best when

powered with 1.5V alkaline batteries.

Rechargeable batteries rated at 1.5V will

give a longer period of playing time than

those only rated at 1.2V.

4. If you stand too close to the transmitter,

the IR signal may overload the headphones

and the sound will be automatically muted.

For best performance, stand between 2'

and 20' from the transmitter.

5. If you hear hiss, turn down the

headphone volume and turn up the

transmitter input level.

6. If you hear distortion, turn down the

transmitter input level, then adjust the

headphone volume. STRONG IR SIGNAL

ON OFF

The IR light beam from the transmitter is

received by sensors on each side of the

headband, so the headphones must be

within sight of the transmitter in order to

operate properly.

Installing the Batteries

The headphones are

batteries (included)

located in the right

ear cup. Lift the battery

cover and insert both

batteries before operating

the headphones.

Power Switch

To turn on the power, quickly press and

release the push button power switch on

the left ear cup.

To turn off the power, quickly press and

release the push button power switch (or,

allow it to turn off automatically as

described below).

Power Indicator

The Turtle Beach Palm Tree Logo on the left

ear cup will flash about once per second

when the power is on.

Automatic Power Shut-off

If there is no sound transmitted for more

than a few minutes, the light will flash

faster to indicate that the headphones are

about to "power down". After about two

minutes, the power will automatically shut

off to conserve the batteries. To turn on the

headphones after they have auto-shut

down, press the power switch as described

above.

Volume Settings

Push in cover

and slide down

The X3 system has three volume control

settings that operate as follows:

Transmitter Input Level: This sets the

maximum game signal level transmitted to

the headphones and should be set as loud

as possible without causing distortion. In

most games, you can leave this set to

maximum. If you hear distortion on loud

parts in the game, turn this control down a

bit to reduce the level.

Headphone Game Volume Control: The

volume control on the headphones also

controls the game signal level, but should

be turned down to a comfortable level. For

best audio quality, the transmitter volume

should be as loud as possible and the

headphone volume should be as low as

possible for optimum game sound.

Talkback Volume Control: Chat volume from

other players during an Xbox Live gaming

session is set by the volume control on the

"puck" inserted into the Xbox controller. The

game volume control on the headphones

has no effect on this chat volume level. In

other words, even if you turn down the

game volume control you will still hear the

chat signal if the "puck" volume is turned

up.

Bass Boost Switch: You can enhance the

game audio quality by turning on the Bass

Boost switch on the headphones. When

turned on, this will increase the low

frequency response of both the game and

talkback signals to enhance the sound of

explosions, gun shots and other deep-bass

sounds.

Stereo Expander

The transmitter stereo expander provides a

"widening" effect on stereo signals.

Activate by placing the slide switch to the

"ON" position. The LED on the front of the

unit will light, indicating that the expander

effect is on.

Infrared

Sensor

The transmitter communicates with the

headphones via an infrared (IR) light beam,

so it is important that there is a direct line of

sight between the transmitter and the

headphones.

You can adhere the included velcro pads or

suction cup to the bottom of the transmitter

to keep it in place on a smooth surface, such

as your Xbox or TV.

Using Xbox Live Chat

The X3 microphone may be used to

communicate with other players during Xbox

Live multi-player gaming sessions. Use the

included cable to connect the headphones

to the Xbox 360 controller as illustrated

below.

Using the Microphone

The microphone signal connects to the Xbox

controller via the cable plugged into the

headphones.

The mute switch on the "puck" plugged into

the Xbox controller can be used to silence

the microphone when you don't want to be

heard.

For optimum clarity, adjust the microphone

so that it is situated a few inches away from

your mouth.

A portion of the microphone signal is mixed

into the headphone signal when the puck

cable is plugged into the headphone Xbox

jack, so you can hear your voice along with

the online chatting and game audio.

Xbox Game

Controller

Insert the gray plug into

the headphone jack labeled

with the Xbox controller

symbol.

Insert the "puck" shaped

plug into the headphone

jack on the Xbox game

controller.

Use the Mic Mute switch to

prevent your voice from being

heard by other players.

The volume control on the "puck"

shaped plug may be used to adjust

the volume of the Xbox Live chat.

Connecting the Transmitter

1. Insert the included DC power adapter

into the power jack on the back of the X3

transmitter.

2. Insert the power adapter into an AC

outlet. The red light on the front of the

transmitter will light up to indicate power is

active.

CAUTION: Use only the supplied power

adapter. Failure to use the correct adapter

can result in fire, damage to the unit or

other hazards.

3. Use the included cable to connect the X3

transmitter to your TV and Xbox as shown in

the diagram below.

Dynamic Talkback Expander

The X3 headphones include a dynamic

talkback expander that automatically

amplifies Xbox Live chat during loud

moments in your game. Since this is a

revolutionary new feature in gaming

headphones, it takes a bit of getting used

to. Here's how it works:

If you were to turn down the headphone

volume control all the way and turn up the

chat volume on the "puck", there would be

no game volume, but you would hear chat.

In this mode, the dynamic talkback

expander is doing nothing because there's

no game audio.

If you turn up the game volume and the

game sound is soft, there won't be any

change in the chat level. However, if the

game volume gets louder, the chat sound

level would normally be drowned out by the

game. That's where the dynamic talkback

expander kicks in!

As the game audio increases, the expander

boosts the chat volume so it keeps up with

the game level and you can hear what

everyone is saying. When the volume quiets

down again, the chat level returns to the

lower volume setting.

To properly set the expander function, first

turn down the headphone game volume

control so there's no game audio. Then

adjust the talkback volume control on the

"puck" so you can hear the chat voices at a

comfortable level. Now, turn up the game

volume and the chat volume increases as

the game gets louder, just as if the talkback

volume control is being automatically

turned up along with the game level.

Note that if the talkback volume on the "puck" is

set too loud, the expander might increase the

volume so much that the voices will distort. If

that happens, just cut back on the talkback

"puck" volume to adjust the level below

distortion.

Setting the Transmitter Input Level

Set the transmitter input

level to maximum and

use the headphone

volume to adjust the

game audio level.
