PC / Mac Setup
When used as a PC/Mac gaming headset, the PX11 functions as an Amplified USB Stereo Headset. When connected to a
PC or Mac, the PX11 appears in Windows and Mac operating systems as “TURTLE BEACH PX11 CHAT.” This allows the
PX11 microphone to be assigned for chat use in game software as a USB audio device.
The black 3.5mm plug is used for sending the stereo game signal from the computer sound card to the PX11 amplifier,
allowing game sounds, music and other sounds to be heard from the computer.
Note: Both plugs must be connected. Set system volume to maximum and then adjust system volume via the game
volume wheel.
