About the XP300
The Ear Force™ XP300 is a premium, high-performance headset designed for Xbox 360 ® and PS3 ™ gaming. To get the most from your
XP300, please take a few minutes to review this introduction.
Dual-Band Wi-Fi
The Ear Force XP300 headset provides wireless CD-quality game sound via dual-band digital RF (radio frequency) that communicates
with the XP300 transmitter. This advanced dual-band Wi-Fi technology uses either 5GHz or 2.4GHz signals to transmit high delity
digital audio and nds the optimum frequency to help eliminate interference with other wireless devices and Wi-Fi networks. Unlike
the RF technology used in most other wireless headsets, the dual-band Wi-Fi technology found in the XP300 coexists with wireless
networks for optimum performance.
5 GHz WiFi
dual band wireless
Dual Pairing Bluetooth ÂŽ
The XP300 incorporates Bluetooth technology which is used for communicating wirelessly on Xbox LIVEÂŽ with the included XBA Chat
Adapter and on PlayStation® Network (PSN™ ). The Bluetooth can also be paired to your mobile phone so you can use your XP300 to
accept phone calls – all while totally immersed in the action of the game.*
Rechargeable Battery
The XP300 also features a rechargeable lithium polymer battery that provides up to 15 hours of continuous game play on a single
charge. The battery can also be recharged while gaming with the included charging cable so you’ll never miss out on the action.
Engineered for High-Quality Sound
The XP300 headset is engineered to deliver high-quality audio that makes it ideal for gaming, movies and digital music playback.
The high-delity, 50mm speakers are encased in acoustically-tuned ear cups with soft fabric cushions and deliver extended bass
with extraordinary dynamic range for optimum audio performance.

*Only 2 Bluetooth devices total can be connected to the headset at a time. In addition, only one Bluetooth device can be active on the
headset at a time. For example, if you are making a call with the headset while on Xbox LIVE chat, the chat will be deactivated until
the call is over.
XP300 Headset - Left View
Power Button: Turn on the headset by pressing the
power button for a couple of seconds, then release.
You will hear 2 beeps and the power LED should start
flashing. Turn off the headset by pressing the button
until the LED stays on and you hear 2 beeps, then
release. To enter Pairing Mode, press and hold the
power button for about 6 seconds until you hear 2 fast
beeps and the LED begins to flash rapidly (see pg 6).
The headset will turn off after several minutes if there’s
no audio detected or if the transmitter is turned off.
Tone Button: Press this button to activate the different
EQ presets. A beep will indicate which preset is
selected. (see pg. 20)
Sound Field Button: Press this button to activate the
different Sound Field presets. A beep will indicate which
preset is selected. (see pg. 20)
Variable Mic Monitor: adjusts the level of your voice
heard in the headset. (see pg. 21)
NOTE: Turning up the mic monitor may cause the mic to pick
up room sounds which will make the silence detector not
automatically shut off the headset when it’s not being used. If
the power is not automatically shutting down, turn down this
mic monitor control.
Xbox 360 Controller Jack: used for optional wired chat
setup (see pg. 11)
Game Volume: Turn to adjust the game sound level.
Removable Microphone with Adjustable Boom:
The microphone can be removed from the headset
when chat is not required by detaching it from the boom.
To properly position the mic: Remove the foam cover, insert the
boom into the socket so the holes on the mic casing are facing
your mouth. Then replace the foam cover. The boom jack also
has a marker to indicate the proper mic position.
XP300 Headset - Right View
Bluetooth® Volume: Press Chat (+) or Chat (–) to adjust
Bluetooth volume level. A tone will sound each time the
volume level changes.
Bluetooth LED: Flashes blue once per second when paired
with a device. Flashes blue twice per second when not
paired with a device. Flashes blue and red quickly when in
pairing mode.
Bluetooth Multi-Function Button (BT MFB):
Powers on the Bluetooth and performs several other
functions described in the “Bluetooth” section. (see pg. 17)
NOTE: The Bluetooth feature is normally powered on. If it is not
paired to another device, it will automatically turn off after 5
minutes to conserve battery power.
Mic Mute Button: Press to toggle between muting and
unmuting the microphone. A high beep will sound when the
mic is unmuted and a low beep will sound when the mic
is muted. When using the XBA Bluetooth Adapter, the mic
can also be muted by double-pressing the button on the
puck. When using the optional Talkback cable, the mic can
be muted directly from the switch on the Talkback cable.
Headset Charging Port: The headset may be charged by
connecting this Mini USB input to a free USB port on your
gaming console using the included Headset Charging
Cable. (see pg. 19)
NOTE: The Headset Charging Cable included with the XP300
can only be used to charge the headset and cannot be used as a
standard USB data cable.
Charging LED: Turns red when charging and turns off
when charged.
XP300 Transmitter
Power/Link LED: When the transmitter is powered on and
communicating with the headset, this LED will be on solid. When
the headset is turned off, the LED will turn off. A slowly pulsing LED
indicates that the transmitter can’t communicate with the headset.
This could happen when the headset is out of range, turned off or not
paired with the transmitter. (see pg 6)
Game Audio Input Jack
Insert the 3.5mm end of the included RCA Splitter Cable into this jack.
Auxiliary Input Jack: Provides a 3.5mm input for digital music players
or additional audio sources. (3.5mm cable sold separately)
Pairing Button: Press and hold to activate pairing mode. (See pg. 6)
Using the Transmitter
Transmitter Range
The transmitter sends game audio from your Xbox 360ÂŽ to the headset
via digital radio frequency (RF) signal, so a direct line of sight is not
required. When you’re out of range, you may hear popping or clicking
sounds if the headset loses the RF signal. For best performance, place
the transmitter in an open area that is unobstructed by objects that
might absorb RF signals from the internal antenna. Avoid placing it on
a metal surface, such as the top of a home theater A/V receiver.
Optimum range: within 30 ft.
Pairing the Headset and Transmitter
The headset and transmitter in this package are “paired”, which means they’re synchronized to ensure they work together. When
the headset and transmitter are communicating, the POWER LED on the the transmitter will be on solid. If this LED is slowly pulsing
instead, it means the transmitter can’t communicate with the headset. This could happen when the headset is out of range, not turned
on or not paired with the transmitter. If the LED is slowly pulsing when the headset is on and within range, then they might need to be
“paired” as described below:
2 feet
Maintain a distance of at least
2 feet between the headset and
transmitter when pairing.
1. Make sure the headset and transmitter are turned off and
they are at least 2 feet away from each other.
4. Wait for the headset and transmitter to pair. This process
could take up to 30 seconds.
2. Power on the transmitter by connecting it to a free USB
port on your gaming console. Then press and hold the
PAIR button on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will
begin to flash rapidly, then release the PAIR button.
If pairing is successful, the LED on the transmitter should be
on solid and the headset LED should be flashing about once
per second, indicating that the units are paired.
3. Press and hold the headset POWER button for about 6
seconds until the LED begins to flash rapidly, then release
the button.
If pairing fails, repeat steps 1-4. It may take up to 5 attempts
to pair successfully.
NOTE: Only one headset can be paired with the transmitter. If you pair two headsets with the same transmitter, they’ll interfere with each other
as they compete for the transmitter RF signal. This will cause one headset to shut off. So don’t try to pair two headsets with the same transmitter!

*NOTE: Only one Bluetooth device can be active on the headset at a time. For example, if you are making a call with the headset while on Xbox LIVE
chat, the chat will be deactivated until the call is over.
17
Making Calls
Once the headset is successfully paired with your mobile phone, you can use it to make and receive calls. It can be used with voice
dialing if your phone supports this function.
1. Using voice dialing* – Press and hold the BT MFB button for 3 seconds until you hear a tone—then release. The voice recognition
prompt in your phone will now be activated. Say the name of the phone number or person whom you want to call. You can exit the
voice recognition state at any time by pressing the MFB for 3 seconds.
2. Using mobile phone keys to make a call – Dial the number on the mobile phone as normal. Once the call has been placed, the sound
will automatically be transmitted to the headset.
3. Redial – Double-click BT MFB button. You will hear two tones, and the last number called will be dialed.
4. Muting the microphone – During a call, the microphone muting can be toggled by Pressing the MUTE button. You will hear one tone,
indicating that the mic mute is active. While the mic is muted, a beep will be heard every 30 seconds to let you know that mic mute is
still activated.
NOTE: Some mobile phones may not have a redial or voice recognition function. If a phone does not have a redial function, then a double-click of the
MFB will initiate the voice recognition state instead. If a phone does not have either function, then a double-click or 3-second press of the MFB will
have no effect.
Receiving Calls
When the XP300 Bluetooth is powered on and there is an incoming call you will hear a phone ring chime in the headset.
You have three options when an incoming call is received:
1. Answer call – Press the BT MFB once to accept the call. Press it again to end a call. A tone is heard in the earpiece each time you
answer or end a call.
2. Reject call – Press and hold the BT MFB for 3 seconds until you hear a beep. The call is sent directly to your voicemail.
3. Do nothing – The “incoming call chime” will sound until your phone sends the caller to voicemail.
18
Recharging the Headset
The XP300 features a rechargeable lithium polymer battery that provides more than 10 hours of continuous game play. When your
headset battery power is low, a tone will begin to sound every 10 seconds until the headset powers off. You can recharge your
headset while still gaming with the included Headset Charging Cable. Simply plug the mini USB end into your headset CHARGE port
and plug the other end into a free USB port on your game console.

Chat Boost™
Chat Boost is a dynamic talkback expander built into the XP300 headset that automatically increases chat volume during loud
moments in your game, so you can always hear your teammates or other players, regardless of the game volume.
Typically, if you turn up a headset’s game volume, the incoming chat level from other players could become difficult to hear
over the game sound. However, with Chat Boost, as the game audio increases, the chat volume also increases. When the game
volume quiets down again, Chat Boost automatically returns the chat level to your original volume setting.
To properly set the Chat Boost function:
1. Turn down the volume control on the headset so there’s no game audio.
2. Adjust the chat volume control on the headset so you can hear the chat voices at a comfortable level.
3. Turn up the headset game volume and the chat volume will increase whenever the game gets louder, just as if the chat
volume control is being automatically turned up along with the game level.
WITHOUT Chat Boost,
chat volume is overwhelmed by loud game audio
WITH Chat Boost,
chat volume increases along with game volume
NOTE: If the chat volume on the headset is set too loud, Chat Boost might increase the volume so much that the voices
will distort. If that happens, turn down the chat volume on the headset.
Variable Mic Monitor
The XP300 headset includes a unique variable microphone
monitor feature that allows you to adjust the level of your voice
heard in the headset so you won’t have to shout. This can be
adjusted by turning the MIC MONITOR wheel on the left ear cup.
NOTE: Turning up the mic monitor may cause the mic to pick up room
sounds which will make the silence detector not automatically shut off
the headset when it’s not being used. If the power is not automatically
shutting down, turn down this mic monitor control.

happens rarely. The user must reconnect the headset Bluetooth from PS3 Bluetooth system settings to x this issue.
Force Shutdown
In the unlikely case that the headset becomes unresponsive and the main power button cannot be used to turn off the headset, the
Mute button on the headset can be used to force shutdown. Press and hold the MUTE button on the headset for 10 seconds to initiate
a forced shutdown.
23
Safety Notice
To avoid potential damage to the device, always disconnect all cables before transporting it.
WARNING: Permanent hearing damage can occur if a headset is used at high volumes for extended periods of time, so it is important
to keep the volume at a safe level. Over time, your ears adapt to loud volume levels, so a level that may not cause initial discomfort can still
damage your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears after listening with the headset, it means the volume is set too loud.
The louder the volume is set, the less time it takes to affect your hearing. So, please take care to listen at moderate levels.

herein ("Product") will be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase by the Purchaser
("Warranty Period"). Any Extended Warranty or Service Plans purchased through a Retail store are not honored by VTB. The Warranty
refers to the repair/replacement of a defective product during this period and not a refund.
This limited warranty extends only to the Purchaser and is not transferable or assignable to any subsequent purchaser. This limited warranty is applicable only in the country or territory where the Product was purchased from an authorized VTB retailer and does not apply to
a Product that has been purchased as used or refurbished (except refurbished by VTB) or was included as part of a non-VTB product.
WARRANTY SERVICE
In the USA and CANADA Warranty Service is provided by our TURTLE BEACH OFFICEs and in all other Countries it is provided by our local
International Distributors.
VTB does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Product and is under no obligation to support the Product for all computer operating systems or future versions of such operating systems.
If a defect should occur during the Warranty Period, Purchaser must contact VTB to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization ("RMA")
number. Purchaser will be responsible for shipping costs incurred in returning the defective Product to an authorized VTB service center,
or to the repair facility located at VTB's corporate headquarters. A copy of the dated proof of purchase and a description of the problem
must be included with the defective Product. VTB will not be responsible for other products or accessories included with the defective
Product sent to VTB. The RMA number must be clearly indicated on the outside of the package. Packages without an RMA number will be
refused by VTB or its representatives and returned to sender at the sender's expense.
In the event of a defect, Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, and VTB's sole liability, is expressly limited to the correction of the defect
by adjustment, repair, or replacement of the Product at VTB's sole option and expense. VTB owns all Products it has replaced and all parts
removed from repaired Products. VTB uses new and reconditioned parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs
and building replacement products. If VTB repairs or replaces a product, the original Warranty Period is not extended, however, VTB warrants that repaired or replacement parts will be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of thirty (30) days from the date
of repair or replacement, or for the remainder of the Warranty Period, whichever is greater.
This warranty does not apply to any Product that has had its serial number altered, removed or defaced, or any Product damage caused
by shipping, improper storage, accident, problems with electrical power, abuse, misuse, neglect, ordinary wear, acts of God (e.g. flood),
failure to follow directions, improper maintenance, use not in accordance with product instructions, unauthorized modication or service
of the Product or damage resulting from the use of the Product with hardware, software or other products not provided by or specically
recommended by VTB.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS PURCHASER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VTB HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE APPLICABILITY OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE FOR THE PRODUCT. IF SUCH A DISCLAIMER IS PROHIBITED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE FOREGOING LIMITED WRITTEN WARRANTY.
IN NO EVENT SHALL VTB BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR LOSS OF USE, ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, AND ANY INJURY TO
PROPERTY OR BODILY INJURY (INCLUDING DEATH) TO ANY PERSON, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT OR
ARISING FROM BREACH OF THE WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, OR STRICT LIABILITY, EVEN IF VTB HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
This warranty supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, oral or written, relating to the Product, and no representation, promise
or condition not contained herein will modify these terms. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specic legal rights. You may also have
other rights, which vary from state to state. Any action or lawsuit for breach of warranty must be commenced within eighteen (18) months
following the purchase of the Product.
