Turtle Beach Stealth 520 PlayStation Wireless Gaming Headset Review

I love coming home at the end of a hard days work, OK that’s a lie, I work from home. I love moving from my desk to the couch, putting my feet up and grabbing a controller to enjoy my favorite games on the big screen. Having a wireless controller for every gaming platform these days is great, so why would you want the burden of a wire going to your console, PC, AMP, controller, or anywhere else for that matter? For that reason, we’re taking a look at the new Stealth 520 from Turtle Beach, which allows you to ditch those cables and enjoy high-end sound quality wherever you want to play.

“Take your wireless gaming audio on PS®4 to spectacular new heights with the Turtle Beach® Stealth 520.
