Pvillerob Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 So, I've got my Xbox One S, and the Logitech G920 wheel and peddle set, Dell 4k 32" monitor, and Logitech G432 headphone with mic. The headset has a 3.5mm plug that plugs into a USB adapter. However, it doesn't work. I have to plug the 3.5mm jack into the Xbox controller?? That doesn't seem right. I'm still trying to resolve a Double NAT issue, so gaming online is still out. But if I can resolve it, how is plugging a stereo jack into the Xbox controller going to allow me to use the headset mic? Also, the headset volume is way low. And I've maxed out all volume controls. Am I going to have to get a headphone amp? Is there a way to keep the controller from shutting off in the middle of play when I'm only using it for sound? It's annoying in the middle of driving to have the sound go out and having to turn on the stupid controller again. And another thing....why is it that I have to restart the Xbox, usually more than once, to get BOTH the wheel and peddles AND the hand controller to work at the same time? The wheel has a power button and the controller has a power button. But most of the time hitting one or the other turns the system on, but leaves the wheel and peddles out of it and I have to reboot the console in Hope's that both will be operational. What's the trick?
skyfire Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I think you should check out Seinheisser or the Sony headphones. Depending on your comfort level the type of headphone are kind of different.
The Blackangel Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I have a headphone and mic that are technically Nintendo as they're Zelda edition, but I've found that they work on any system. They're tricky to get to work through a USB adapter, but they do the trick for me when I need them. I typically use them to record things for one of my YouTube channels.
skyfire Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 I think for streaming specific usage, Blue's Yeti and Yeti X are two good models. Like those are perfect for the recording and also for the various PC to MIC dictation type stuff.
ARx182 Posted July 4, 2020 Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) I currently have a Kotion Each G2600 gaming headset. The design is cool, it comes with a microphone and it has a light-up option. The sound quality is also good for the price. All in all, it's a really good headset for a reasonable price. Edited July 4, 2020 by ARx182
The Blackangel Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 The best way to go in my opinion is Raycons. The sound quality is mind blowing, and the transmission through the mics is as if you’re sitting right beside the people you’re talking to. They can’t be beat.
skyfire Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 You may find PXC 550 from the seinheisser pretty much good enough for the gaming. Here's the model: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/pxc-550-ii
