Happily married to Fatal_Coin_Vest since July 1st, 2009.

Thank you, Captain K Mart.

I'm looking for a headset to use with my 360. I'm trying to search on Amazon, but none of the descriptions are very... descriptive. Or maybe I'm just too lazy/stupid. But if anyone wants to help, that'd be great.

Capable of carrying game, chat, and another external audio source. All wireless, although plugged in for the external audio is reasonable. Having 5.1 speakers or whatever would be a bonus, if it fits in the range of $100 - $150. And has to be on Amazon.com.

I see the x12 and x32s a lot. Can those both do game and chat audio? I really don't know much about gaming headphones.

You could, but if you want wireless and I think surround sound x32 is also good. Both do game and chat audio.

Lt. Dan I brought you some ice cream. Lt. Dan.. ice creaaam!

I have the dx11 which comes with a surround sound processor. Or you can get the x11 which has just stereo. I bought it about two years ago so there might be better ones.

I'm not so good with advice...Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

If you're looking to buy your first pair of gaming headphones, Turtle Beaches are a good place to start. You can get the x12s which are stereo sound, and yes they play both game and chat audio. You could pay more for the x32 but i really dont think its necessary. Then, you could buy this if you wanted the surround sound. I had the X12's and theyre great. Cant vouch for the Dolby processor though.

Turtle Beach XP400's go on sale on Amazon for $149 every one in a while.

The Game

I use an x31.
It has served me more than well.

There comes a time in every mans life... and that time is not now.

Turtle Beach and Tritton are the brands you want to look into. Research those (easiest way is to go to their actual websites), and then you can buy off amazon.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

I have X41's. Those have served me well.
