 Posted: Tue, 8th Jul 2008 12:54 Post subject: Turtle Beach Ear Force X4 wireless headphones |
|
 |
| Quote: | | Ear Force X4 wireless headphones have just been revealed. Designed with Xbox 360 gamers in mind, this headset / headphone combo promises to provide Dolby 5.1 surround sound out of just two earcups (we're still checking on the velvet-lined part), and more importantly, the Chat Boost Dynamic Talkback Expander "automatically adjusts incoming XBOX Live chat levels during loud game moments" to keep you from going deaf when NewbX1337 gets all whiny on you. Can't say we're thrilled by the $199.95 price tag, but these are available now for those who are. |
These seem to be tagged for the Xbox 360, I guess one could use them for PC as well. But do you guys know of any 5.1 phones that are wireless with mic other then the X4? |

even IF you get a decent headphone, it will cost twice as much as the same quality with a cord AND it will be very unconfortable to wear because of the added weight of the batteries. If it is comfortable to wear, you ll have to recharge every other song...
but thats coming from a cables-guy, who doesnt even have wifi =)

Pfft, wireless is so overrated anyway when it comes to PC peripherals. Not buying wireless mice and keyboards anymore, nothing but trouble around here, and I can't even understand why, no radio transmitters, etc.

yeah, never had wireless mice and keyboards because i saw how much they sucked when trying them (lag, more weight...). Wireless headphones are still an even worse idea though...

Again, you guys know a "Wireless" headset with a "Microphone"!, I have never seen it before, that's why I am asking. I can imagine that the sound might be fuked and all that, but anyway.

I have a cheap pair of wireless headphones, and yeah lots of static.
unfortunately what else can you use if you want to sit on the couch and listen to the sound coming from the receiver? I guess you can attach a 12 ft extension wire, but I kinda like being able to get up and go to the kitchen without removing them.
asus z170-A || core i5-6600K || geforce gtx 970 4gb || 16gb ddr4 ram || win10 || 1080p led samsung 27"
