Rating: - The 5.1 Headphone advantage
These headphones are the perfect add-on for the xbox. They provide excellent sound quality (lots of bass with bass boost turned on), and excellent player microphone audio control and quality. They are the perfect solution if you are hearing complaints about the "constant war battles in the living room" from others in the house.
I did not experience any noticeable hiss unless I turned the headphones well above the normal play level with no game sounds playing (manual says some plasma ... Read More

I bought these headphones to play my favorite XBOX 360 games at late nights, while enjoying a high quality sound. The ear fore x4 offers a great quality sound with great bass feature.

1. The "HISS": Aim the component at where you are sitting, reduces is it largely. Also, Plasma TVs cause a lot of extra hiss, interference. Says it right in the manual. I have LCD. Also, if you CRANK these things, you hear it when there is silence.
Rating: - Only one negative!
Like everyone else is saying, these headphones are amazing! My wife asked if there was anyway she could stop hearing all the shooting going on in my favorite games (Halo 3, CoD4). I said sure, but it's not gonna be cheap! She didn't care so I took the plunge on these and couldn't be happier!
The feedback loop that plays your own voice back through the speakers is fantastic. Sound quality is just as spot on as my home theater system.
The only negative is the line of sight issue, but if you ... Read More
