SURROUND SOUND HEADPHONES
Â
Turtle Beach Ear Force headphones are a perfect add-on for the Riviera. Be sure to check them out
at www.TurtleBeach.com
.
The optional Turtle Beach Ear Force surround-sound headphones let you experience surround-sound
without having to set-up a 5.1 speaker system. Currently, two models are available:
The Ear Force HPA2
includes an amplifier unit
that boosts the output level
of the 5.1 output signals to
provide head-shaking bass.
The Ear Force X-52 are
passive headphones that
plug directly into the Riviera
5.1 channel outputs and fold
into a portable unit.
Each model includes a
removable microphone
compatible with the Riviera
microphone input.
Ear Force HPA2 with Amplifier
Ear Force X-52 portable multi-
speaker headphones
Each model includes four
speakers in each ear cup for
reproducing Front,
Surround, Center and Sub
audio signals from the
Riviera 5.1 analog outputs,
providing a realistic
surround-sound experience
without the need for a 5.1
speaker system.
To connect either model of the Ear Force headphones to the analog outputs, insert the colored jacks on the
headphone cable into the matching plugs on the Riviera bracket (Green = Front, Black = Surround, Orange
(blue on Riviera) = Center/Sub, Pink = Microphone).
Â
When placing the headphones over your ears, be sure to place the cable/mic side on the left ear so
that the front and rear speakers will be correctly positioned.
