Turtle Beach is back at it again, dropping higher-end devices after years of catering to entry-level and lower mid-range prices. The Turtle Beach Atlas Air is the latest in this more premium category, combining a wireless connection with an open-back design for a fairly rare experience. There’s plenty going on here that sets the device apart from the competition (both from a closed-back and open-back standpoint), but going up against audiophile heavyweights is no easy task.
The Corsair Virtuoso Pro was previously the best gaming headset with an open-back design but its reliance on cables (a lot of cables) and its strangely flat mids mean there’s ample opportunity for Turtle Beach to wiggle in here - and that’s exactly what the Atlas Air has done.
