So I just bought the Xbox 360 HDMI cord and to my surprise, I can't use my turtle beaches with them. I have the slim, so are there any adapters that I can purchase so I can use both my HDMI and Turtle Beaches?

Here's the cable that I use.

If you buy it, then you just plug it into the sensor box and the headphone jack in your T.V.

Something like this should do it.

I haven't had this problem myself so no promises it will work.

Why on earth would you switch to HDMI if you are using a headset? If you need another adaptor, just to make your headset work, you are accomplishing neither of the things HDMI is good for:

- Simplifying the connection with less cords
- Increasing the fidelity of your digital signal

Maybe his signal wasn't digital before or something?

I don't have a component cable that works with my 360 with HD on my TV so I use the adapter and an HDMI cable, I don't see anything wrong with it.

Cut of a small piece of the RGB-cable so you can have that connected to your headset and have the HDMI cable in at the same time.
