My mom got me headphones but they have a USB instead of 3.5mm jack and we cant return them....

Another method is using an adaptor for the headphones instead of the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Are you talking about a USB based one or a 3.5mm jack head phone

If USB based then it has to be xbox compatible from your description it's a computer based usb one as headphone jacks donr need to be recognized and only made for xbox headphones work with the console either with port or syncing

If 3.5mm jack when try inserting the jack

Should.be noted if the jack wire is flayed you will have aloe of problems

As long as you have a remote with the 3.5mm headphone jack on the controller then you should be good with any headset that has a 3.5mm jack! Make sure you leave an open USB port on the Xbox and your ready to sing away!

Hi there

As stated it's suggested to use a headset instead of a USB microphone but if it works usb as power source with pink plug you can get a splitter that goes in to the jack of the controller and mircophone jack into mic jack female and headphones into the headphone
jack and use the usb grabbing power that way, That is one way I have seen people setting them up like for broadcasting but that's for PC's mostly.

Another note on the 3.5 stereo to 3.5 stereo male to male cord...

Make sure that the stereo jack on the TV is the same size as the stereo jack on your headphone "in-line" volume controller. Some headphones use a 2.5mm instead of a 3.5mm. The TV is most likely the 3.5mm size.

Compare the one plugged into the TV with the one plugged into you headset "in-line" controller. If they are the same, you will have no trouble finding a 3.5 to a 3.5 (The jack on the Xbox One controller chat converter is 3.5mm also).

If one is thinner than the other, you will have to find a 3.5mm stereo male jack to a 2.5mm stereo male jack. Where I live, the only place I found one was online (eBay is where I got one).
