I was poking around Amazon.com this AM and stumbled onto their Upcoming Releases section to find that there's an upgraded version of my beloved X41's Turtle Beach headset coming out, the X42, with an April release date.

Seeing as Amazon is selling them at $160 (+tax where applicable) I Google > Shopping searched them and found this listing at Provantage.com to be the cheapest overall:
http://www.provantage.com/turtle-bea...0~7VOYE04L.htm

Now the trouble is, has anyone ever actually heard of this site? They claim they've been in business for 28 years, and that puts them as established in, what, 1984?

I've actually ordered a turtle beach dx21 headset bundle from them. Received the item quickly and it was packaged well enough. Not sure about the place as a whole.

I think I ordered something from Provantage like ten years ago... didn't have any problems.

They're legit.

so are these 7.1?

oh, and provantage gets a thumbs up from me...
