Tritton AX360 Gaming Headset - TRI-GA600
Tritton AX360 True 5.1 Gaming Headphones with 8 strategically placed speakers - removable microphone - Dolby Digital certified

This is by far the best gaming headset I've ever purchased. It completely blows away any of the Turtle Beaches I've owned. 5.1 surround out of the optical cable is the way to go. One year after I purchased the headset the mic broke. I called Tritton to buy another and they sent me one for free. The customer service is fantastic. I will be buying the new tritton's when they come out.

These are cool headphones. Long cord, good features, seem sturdy. As far as performance, the surround channel information was not as distinctly perceived as surround (behind you) info. I think this is due to the fact that movies/games are mixed on speakers and not headphones, so not really a fault. You have to fiddle with the surround delay function to give you better perceived distance, etc. The inline knobs should be marked with a contrasting color, so you can tell which knob you're tweaking... Rumble effect was cool, but drivers can't be large enough to produce full range of bass, specifically just above the frequencies that the rumble function accentuate, so you miss that a little. For me the extra controls are GREAT, but for the average Joe/Jill, might be tough to figure out. Overall, these are pretty cool, if you want to watch movies or play games, without disturbing others. They are reasonably priced, given the whiz-bang nature of their performance, but still don't rival an all-in-one speakered surround system for the same price.

These headphones are amazing. They Let you tweak virtually all settings you can imagine , even delay times ( they dont explain the delay settings well i.m.o but you can find info easily online ). If i have one complaint it is that the cord from the mic to the controller (360) is soooo flimsy and 2 of my friends who own them had this break (they will replace it if they break) but i just wrapped they cord in tape to strengthen it, so i really doubt it will happen. Duct tape fixes anything :)

2nd day air got to me next day and then I started using these babies and wow...that's all I can say. they are amazing! The only downside is there's no mute for the mic which other people have said.

OVERALL: when i first got these (nice, fast shipping too) i was pretty excited. you get alot of stuff for the $100 i paid. setup is very easy. the only thing i had trouble with is hooking it up to my 360. but it was my fault not trittons, because the fiber optic cable has little plastic protectors over them when you first get it so it didnt read the signal. i called them up, they were very nice and fast. i told him about my problem and he told me about the plastic protectors. it then worked great. the bass is really powerful. plus, these things can get VERY loud. the surround sound is crazy. i can always hear if im about to be snuck up on from behind in halo 3. email me if you have any questions. these are damn good headphones. i would recommend them to anyone. PROBLEMS: some of the few problems are: 1. you cant really hear yourself talk, especially when theres big explosions. 2. its hard to hear others talk when theres big explosions 3. the microphone included does not work on my computer as a mic. the jack that goes into the 360 controller is too small. 4. you need to have surround sound inputs in your computer for these to work on it. i have a 5.1 sound card so they work on mine but maybe not everyones.

I got this headset about a week ago, and it exceeds my expectations. The sound is clear and full, and after taking some advice on adjusting the the different volume levels, other's voices on Xbox Live come in perfectly as well. If you are a competitive gamer, then these are a must.

This headphone set is very cool. I keep telling friends that it is almost as if putting these on allows you to dip your head directly into the television. The only experience I have had with them is playing HALO III. So far this is one of the coolest XBOX related accesories I have purchased. The only complaint that I have so far is that the opening music of the game seems very loud and distorts. It may just be that I need more practice seting these up. I recommend these to everyone that I know.

I purchased these headphones for the sole purpose of being able to game at night while my wife and kids were sleeping. Though I havent tried many surround sound headphones, this pair did not disappoint! And though some may not like the fact that they dont really do much noise cancelling, I like this feature (or lack there of) because if my wife calls my name or the kids wake up I can still hear them (faintly).<br /><br /> As others have mentioned, there is a lack or information in the manual, but having no knowledge in this area I was able to configure it to my liking (though for most the base settings should be fine). And Ill also admit that the microphone jack on the headset looks really fragile, but it seems to hold up just fine.<br /><br /> It took me a little bit to get used to the audio when chatting since it seems a little hollow at first. I play a lot of Halo 3 and once my ears got used to the different voice chat (compared to Microsofts headset) I was golden.<br /><br /> <strong><font color="red">This headset WILL help you become a better gamer</font></strong>youll be able to hear where they are shooting you from or if someone is coming up behind you (this has saved me many of times now). Ive even heard sounds that Ive never heard before (since before I couldnt crank the volume on my surround sound system due to my family).<br /><br /> <strong>If youre looking for a surround sound headset that has a microphone feature this is well worth the price!!!</strong>

After much research I decided on the AX360. You don't realize how good they are until you go back to the headset included with your gaming system. The only reason I gave it a 3 on ease of use is b/c you have to read up on how to setup and use - its not just plug and go. The multiple volume controls take some getting use to. I have 3 volumes set at the same level and adjust only 1 of the volumes. The sounds are very clear and you can hear everthing but remember these are headphones so don't think they will be like a 5.1 speaker system. They totally block out any other sounds (like your wife/mom yelling at you). The price is a little steep but I plan on purchasing a second pair for my other xbox.

The AX360 provides a superb 3D audio environment for gaming and 3D virtual worlds. dead-on positional accuracy. The microphone is the best headset mic that I personally have used,(great for voice command in VISTA 64). That being said, they do require a little tweaking of your audio settings, 5 to 30 min., and are not my first choice for strictly music. In music they do not seem to provide a full enough sound for a true audiophile. They do come with plenty of extra equipment. Most people will not need to purchase other cords and adapters etc... bottom line, for gaming or virtual worlds they are well worth the money, and you will be surprised at their ability to pinpoint sounds. If you are only interested in music, there are better choices, But I would fight anyone who tried to take mine away!!
