Almost Perfect by Christopher J. Martin
I bought these headsets to be able to play on XBox Live and listen to TV/movies late at night and they’re almost perfect. The sound is amazing and the reception area is great. I can almost walk out of the a 17′ wide room before losing reception.
The only problem I have with this headset and why I didn’t give it a 5 star review is that it does not have a charging stand. So you’ll have to get rechargeable batteries and replace them every so often depending upon your use. I got about 20 hours of use out of the included AAA batteries before having to replace them.
Decent headset, a little over priced. by Imyourmomma
Headset does what it says, plays xbox sound independenlty of your stereo or TV.
Wireless function is cool, would be nicer if it was RF instead of IR. Direct line of site is required to hear sound. So if you walk away, you can only hear chat, but not game sounds, bad for bathroom breaks. Headset plugs into the controller for chat sound.
This thing EATS batteries. You get about 20 hours or so of use before having to replace the batteries(AAA x 2). I would really like it if you could plug your xbox rechargeable batteries into this thing, get power from the controller or just have an AC adapter I could plug in close to where I am sitting.
When the batteries get low, sound quality goes to 0 and you can’t talk over the mic.
The sound quality is decent, though I wouldnt use these to listen to music or TV. I have to tap them once for them to play at full volume when I first turn them on, no idea why. Manufacturing quality is decent, but for the money I would expect more.
Pretty good, but… by S. Jessop
These are decent sounding headphone that excel in Live! functionality and wireless freedom. There is an omnipresent hiss that becomes unnoticeable during games, but is annoying at times. In general they don’t seem to be constructed very well. Mine are broken right now because the mic wire jack broke off the headphone circuit board (internal to the earpiece). Looks like I have to buy a new pair- ouch!
It is really nice to be able to adjust player voice volume separate from the game volume and the ability to hear yourself is nice for other people who may be in the room or sleeping nearby (no yelling).
Do Not Buy If You Have A Plasma TV or HDMI XBOX 360 by Daniel Rayburn
While reading the manual to setup the X3, I find out that the manufacturer says that these don’t work well with plasma TVs due to IR distortion. Would of been nice to know that BEFORE I ordered it. While the manual gives “suggestions” on how to reduce the feedback, none of them work. Also, if you connect your XBOX 360 via HDMI, DO NOT BUY THESE. You have to have a “premium” XBOX 360 with a special HDMI cable with a dongel in order to use this. Otherwise, you have to do audio out of your TV or get rid of your HDMI connection. Again, would of been nice to have known about this BEFORE I bought it.
