I was particularly impressed with how layered and balanced the sound felt in both single-player and multiplayer games, although that just speaks to the quality of those returning 50mm neodymium drivers. Whether you're pairing this thing up with Dolby Atmos on Xbox Series X for virtual 7.1 surround sound, 3D Audio on PS5, or just using it au naturel, there's a depth and clarity here that is truly impressive for the price point. The battery life, compatibility, and functionality are all fantastic, and as an additional bonus: the sound quality is damn fantastic too. Overall, there is really very little working against the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max. While it feels a little unreasonable to expect the Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max to offer onboard EQ control within this price bracket, it's a shame to see it absent in even the dedicated Audio Hub phone app. On the bottom of the left earcup, you'll find a series of wheels which will let you toggle volume for audio and voice – the flip-down microphone is solid, if unspectacular in terms of clarity – and buttons which will let you shift between preset sound modes. If I had to find a complaint with this headset, it really comes down to control. Speaking of preference, there are elements of the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max that I'm not a huge fan of. Some of you may wish for a little more flexibility in your headband, particularly if you plan on taking these out on the road with you, but that's a question of personal preference. It's comfortable during lengthy play sections, doesn't run too warm, and the closed-back cans aren't all that tight around the ears. The same praise can be placed on the Max headband, which comes equipped with a little extra padding versus the regular Stealth 700 Gen 2. In my testing, I was able to get around 40 hours of charge out of the Max, which is pretty damn wonderful. Thankfully, Turtle Beach has almost doubled the battery life over its predecessor. What's the value in being able to switch the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max to every conceivable device in your house if it's running out of juice after only a few hours of good use? There would be little.
