[@tekadesing675]

THANK YOU

[@faithtwelve]

Just picked it up, going to try it out tonight. Great review man.

[@bizin7220]

this headphone for SOME GODDAMN REASON it has THE BEST base sound quality ever. i don't know why but it was better than bose and beats

[@emperorkiva8063]

Well... Beats is not the best example of good sound quality

[@symphonysoup]

Bizin ikr

[@spiceg9614]

The bar is not set very high with beats

[@Can_Head]

because its a gaming headset dumby its meant to emphasize gunshots which are extremely bassy

[@DALLORGON]

In my opinion the sound is shit

[@movado1138]

Thank you for the great review. Been thinking about buying this headset and now I will probably make the purchase.

[@Khanviction]

[@petermelhag]

Good and informative review. Thanks.

[@bighowey8947]

Do you think I could hear footsteps really well with this and awesome video man I just subscribed

[@cabrera14651]

Great review quality. You should review the best xbox headset because theres so many.

[@samuraiindiano8320]

Great review!

[@felipecadal]

Nice review! I'll buy it.

[@chrisstewart79]

Convinced me, just pre-ordered. Good review by the way

[@InnerAnimations]

are you pre-ordering the newest one?

[@icingprincess1]

Nice review, I just purchased them Saturday so I had one full day to test them out, all of the headsets that came out on the 7th are stereo sound not surround sound, for $80 you cant go wrong..

[@Exarathas]

Nice review!

[@manfreds6389]

Thanx 4 the test, nicely done ;-)

[@LucasGames-zx9cy]

These are amazing, I got one for christmas for my xbox one it is awesome!

[@LukasAnderbro]

Nice review, Thank you!😉👌

[@d.o.t.4477]

thanks man! super useful review for me 👍

[@TheElegantMan1]

First of all thank you for the review, very nice information, I just have a few questions. This headset lets you here game audio from the headset correct? And if so, does it mute the audio coming from the TV as well? Also, you said that you use this to listen to music with your phone/MP3 player, which means that it works on PC too? And if it does work on PC, does the mic work as well? Sorry for all the questions, but if anyone could answer me that would be great :)

[@dabluedeuce1389]

Great video, good work.

[@christopherlopez8205]

Great review.

[@AcuraYT]

Great review 😎

[@cardinez6848]

Can I use this headset on a external capture? Example given: Hauppauge HD PVR 2

[@austin323la]

Good review thanks!

[@JarvisAguonAS]

The quality is great

[@boomtheshady]

These things are currently $39.99 almost EVERYWHERE right now online. I watched your review and decided to try them out. Nice headset for the $$. Also these work on PS4 just plug while the Xbox One ironically needs an update still lol. ALSO the headset adapter dongle thingy retails for $25 alone. You need this for Astros, Turtles etc.

[@TheBadAssNcrRanger]

Nice to know. I found out about the price drop on Amazon. I was wondering if these would work with the ps4 since I want to get one of those someday. And yes all headset on the xbox one need an adapter except for the new turtle back stealth 500x.

[@_xxsnipermasterxx_6225]

I love turtle back headsets

[@Mag82uk]

The update its for the audio adapter not the head phones lol you plonker Rodney.

[@WillFuI]

Yea for $40 it’s amazing. I still use it for my pc.

[@kofijamal]

Thanks for the review. I picked mine up yesterday and very happy with my purchase. I was going to get the Polk or Turtle Beach, but I figure I'd go with the budget buy rather than spending more money and a better headset comes out later this year. Only "issue" I have is that my voice doesn't connect with the mic. I'm also pretty anti-social online, only talking with friends and with certain games/times, so I'm not use to speaking to be heard. I'm hoping that's it rather than the mic being too far from my mouth to catch my voice. Other than that, I'm happy with it. Later I'll get something more snazzy, but for now I can hear the foot steps and direction of the bullets coming my way. After a few months without a headset, I had to really "relearn" how to "hear with headsets." lol That being said, when going by a I.E.D. in Call of Duty Ghosts, I often didn't hear the "pings" until it was too late. The sounds of gunfire drowned out nearly everything. Again, I'm used to hearing from my TV with this game, so perhaps that's a factor. Thanks again for your review and other headsets.

[@hicks8693]

i bet you got a whole family now 🤣Life’s crazy

[@kevondouglas4088]

I had these before is very comfortable and it sounds really great I think it will game most headset today in its price range a good run and music wise it’s very clear have a lot of bass

[@cknorthpole]

Great review. Subbed. I've been watching your videos for quite some time but apperently i had forgot to subrscribe :P Think I'll order one of these. I've been looking at some others as well but these ones seem to be the best priced ones.

[@Flamex539]

Thanks for the review, friend! You have earned yourself another subscriber :) There's just a few things i'd like to know about this headset: How flimsy is it? As in, if i apply a little bit too much force will it break? Is it comfortable for long gaming sessions? How good is the stereo sound quality? Can you adjust the bass? How good is the bass? I realise i have just asked quite a few questions, and i'm sorry for taking up so much of your time :P Thanks in advance! :)

[@BooredAtWork]

Thanks for subscribing. The headset isn't flimsy. though it does feel like it . its quite durable. but I suggest not seating on it. The Stereo headset quality is good. But you can't adjust the bass as everything runs through the headset adapter. Bass is decent for the price. It sounds good. Hope that helps

[@Flamex539]

Booredatwork.com Thanks so much, my friend! Very informative reply :) You are a very good reviewer, and i hope you have a nice day, friend :)

[@DarkKnight702]

great videos. just subscribed

[@outsidesedona]

Booredatwork, I have watched your videos for both 1st party headsets (PS4 Gold and Xbox One Stereo) and I was wondering which one had the better overall audio quality in your opinion? I know that the mic is obviously better on the Xbox side but in terms of audio quality and build quality which would you prefer if you were going to use a headset that could operate on both platforms. Your thoughts?

[@TheFPJShow]

Do you just hear the chat audio or the gaming audio too with these headsets? thank you. Great Review Video

[@devilsgrin6]

Nice review. I would like to add though that you mention very little about the actual quality of the sound. That should be included in a headphone review. The lows, mids, highs, etc...

[@johny1220]

I just got these there so good and comfortable

[@captainwafflezs4799]

They are about 45$ one amazon now. I know I'm a bit late but i wouldn't of bought it without this video. I subbed :D

[@robertomartins1649]

Is it still working?

[@viliamrev.1]

finnaly somebody does mic test

[@DEANBAILEYDJ]

Thanks I shall purchase a pair 👍

[@Ch4osWe4veR]

I'll probably just get the adapter and use the Tritton Trigger headset I already have for my Xbox 360. The lead off the headset that goes into the amplifier box thing is a 3.1mm jack. Good stuff!

[@pascalwickert6848]

Nice video man and what about the ingame sound? like for battelfield etc can you here from where the shots come ?

[@Watchthisvideo2023]

I just purchased the XBOX ONE Stereo Headset. The reason for viewing your video was to see how they fit and if they were worth buying. One thing about these are that they are built for long term gaming. Were Turtle BEach xo fours are smaller and make your head hurt were the xo sevens are built for comfort. The sound is way to much in these sets. My question is at high volume do they distort?

[@bucketgetter6457]

thx I needed dis vid

[@BooredAtWork]

[@e.t.464]

Thanks for the review.

[@BooredAtWork]

welcome

[@Linus90]

If you plug in another set of headphones into the adapter, do you get both game and chat audio?

[@mall231]

Thanks for the upload please could you tell if sound still comes out of the TV or just out of the headset how does that work many thanks

[@danielmeridiantrains3592]

totally good i am thinking of buying

[@MrsXx]

How does this headset compare regarding sound quality to the Xo4/Xo7's?

[@dannycruz68]

***** Thanks for the review. It was either between Xbox One Chat Headset or these but I'm going for these. Thanks again.

[@BooredAtWork]

your welcome

[@TomZentra]

This looks like a good, comfortable starter headset for Xbox One. How does it affect the battery life of the controller?

[@prettyminerva2446]

Cheers dude been really off the fence and away from getting this headset, I wasn't sure what to get, but this helped me enough to want to get it! I'm picking it up tomorrow! Is it good for games like overwatch and call of duty?

[@justintoosaucy5277]

Itz-Jessicarh :3 yea you can hear game audio

[@Columboyd]

Can you listen to movies/dvds/youtube/sky app/usb external drive content through the xbox one with these?

[@xtazxvegasx]

For those that don't know, you can usually find Astro A30s with the Mixamp on Ebay for the same price or cheaper. I paid $75 for mine and they were brand new. For anyone interested in buying a new headset, I'd suggest going that route instead.

[@deathsshadow7656]

Btw, if you have the actual controller charger, you can use that to update your controller as well.

[@BlockedThunder1]

Yep. Just any mini usb

[@VivaKingTone]

Can I use this mic with cursed voice on PC?

[@CajunWhy]

great Xbox One headset if you don't feel like spending over $150. This review was very helpful and I ended up getting this headset and I have no complaints expect for maybe the small crackle you hear in most wireless headsets when there is no sound on. Other than that it's a great buy imo.

[@TechWithKEM]

Thanks for the video, I'll probably pick one up. One questions though. Since I'm getting a ps4 soon, will it have full compatibility with the ps4, meaning mic working, chat audio, and game audio? Or should I get the Sony gold headset and use that for the Xbox one? Help would be appreciated. Thanks!

[@dougbrady5807]

I keep reading that it does work with the PS4. The PS4 is way more compatible with headsets. I has the 3.5 mm pin to support chat and game audio.

[@jamiedude1050]

I bought this about two months back and have been asking people ever since how my voice actually sounds and fuck it sounds clear, quality mic.

[@BHDWarpBrother]

Nice video thanks.

[@PRACTICALBUSHCRAFTSURVIVAL]

Hi can this head set work on xbox 360 with a converter or adaptor .?

[@vicenzobrosso8861]

Good review, SUBBED :) I just bought myself that headset. before I unpack it, I wanted to know of it is any good :P

[@prelude6985]

Why are you here 7 years later?

[@snayke1973]

what about the game and chat volume controls? I haven't seen one video that talks about that.

[@michaeltheguy1686]

so this headset plays game audio and voice chat in one cord...through the xbox one controller?

[@ThatEseMatt]

Can you post a video of the adapter? I want to know if it works well with dre beats studio before i buy one

[@PALversusNTSC1]

how is the bass sound of the headset? and can i put it just on game sound?

[@andrewmiller7584]

hey man! really impressed by your channel. hoping that you make it up the imperial ladder! I was just wondering if youll be doing the Polk 4 shot review as well? i see youve done the titanfall atlas. overall i want to purchase these. all xbox everything. but the 4 shots and the POET advantage look awesome. thanks again!

[@andrewmiller7584]

also sound perception, if someone is behind your to the right does it sound like they are or is it just general noise?

[@BooredAtWork]

Andrew Miller Will have the polk 4 zShot up in an hour or so. Unboxing that is. As for sound its stereo so not much in getting direction. but decent enough

[@ivorpg2011]

Does it impact the battery life on the controller a lot?

[@ricd5553]

I want to use this as a headset on my PC as well but it refuses to recognize the mic on it. Funnily enough the headset mic works fine on my Mac but I really would love for it to work on Windows 10.

[@drippyf3]

Do you need the adaptor now? Since on the Xbox one s controller there's a aux cord jack thing

[@django971]

Hey , I have couple questions, does the headset works without the adapter,? And does the mic require updates the controller to function the right way?

[@BishoYT]

I don't understand. Can you hear game audio through these headsets?

[@imaginepeace8574]

for some reason i cant even get audio for my headset i bought the stereo adapter and tried my sades headset to connect it but nothing no sound at all

[@DiegoWenndson]

With this headset to listen to conversations and game, or just listen just talk to friends in game?

[@osuperjames]

Can I use this on my PC with Windows 10? I have a Xbox One controller for Windows, so this adapter will fit, I think

[@manuiscool]

can you hear your voice while you chat? that is what i liked about the turtle beach on the 360

[@0268race]

What i didnt unterstand is whether the headset is only for Chat Sound or do you hear the game Sound or both ?

[@markthemandez4046]

What was the sound quality like? good highs and lows?

[@2SHOTDAVE]

I like it.

[@DjJMB94]

do you hear a gameplay through this headset too? or is it just for chat/parties?

[@emmanuelballesteros4357]

What do you recommend? xbox one stereo headset or turtle beach XO seven

[@CosmicSquidly]

I would get either this one or a Turtle Beach, but now I have the chatpad I can use my own headphones with the built in microphone as it has a 3.5mm headphone port on the bottom

[@tntbuffalogaming]

Does this have a mic audio play back? Like you can hear your self.

[@Huertamessi10]

what if i updated my controller with out plugging in my headset??

[@RayLTX956]

So if I buy a 2.5mm to 2.5mm wire and connect it to me turtle beaches and my controller will it still work because my talkback cable that came with it does not work

[@eg-9758]

I bought mine at GameStop around 5 months ago and they 2 months ago... First, one side stopped playing in game audio and chat out of it... Then a week later the mic broke. I also threw away the receipt when I got this headset (dumb move) so idk if I can return it. Does GameStop accept returns without receipts? It has the tag on it still with the GameStop barcode. Thanks!

[@theanimeotaku2794]

Can you use the headset as a normal headphone like with a computer or tablet

[@FlintG]

Might get this for my new xbox one its on sale at amazon :)

[@BishoYT]

Is the mic better than the regular mic headset?

[@goldscar5551]

I know I'm late on this.. but my afterglows echo all the time, I guess they broke. Does this headset echo? I need a new headset but I don't wanna spend to much momey

[@MisterSirStyles]

Is the adaptor needed if you have the newer version controllers?

[@chrome0117]

can you compare this to the Polk 4 Shot Headset? cant decide which one

[@TheElliottStar]

Does it work work with iPod earphones? Please tell me so I can cancel my preorder if they do not work.

[@djlovelace6268]

I got the xbox one s before black Friday and the same headset I have yet to have the mic work I can hear games but no mic how do u set the mic up

[@FallingFudge]

I play on a monitor and my Xbox One is NOT connected to any stereo speaker I always used Turtle Beaches X42s for sound and a headset adapter for talking. The jack for the talk back cable broke off in the adapter and now I cant talk with my friends and hear the game simultaneously. Are these a good for that sort of thing or do you have to have a stereo speaker.

[@admiralfishface8750]

Just got me a set of these on eBay for 20 bucks directly from Microsoft, can’t wait to try them out.

[@ChrisSchofield]

Do you know if I used stereo ear buds with a built in microphone that it would work with the adapter?
