Our Verdict
Turtle Beach Recon 500
Turtle Beach Recon 200 Gen 2
The Turtle Beach Recon 500 and the Turtle Beach Recon 200 Gen 2 are similarly performing gaming headphones. While they're both decently comfortable, the Recon 500 have a detachable mic with a better overall performance. However, the Recon 200 Gen 2 have EQ presets built-in as well as a virtual soundstage feature that's powered by a battery with over 16 hours of battery life.
