Gaming headset maker Turtle Beach said today it has acquired Neat Microphones​, a maker of high-quality USB and analog microphones.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed. It could put Turtle Beach in a better position to address growing markets such as gaming, streaming, podcasting, recording, and audio conferencing. If 2020 taught us anything, it’s that microphones have become a staple technology for the home, as people sheltering in place need them to stay in touch with the rest of the world.
