    PC headphones and mic audio and Xbox 360


    So what I would REALLY like to do is have game audio and party chat audio come through my headphone speakers, then use the mic on my headphones as an Xbox mic to talk over a party with my friends. I have Xbox chat headphones with one earphone with chat audio,
    and my PC headphones on top of that to hear game audio. The setup is very uncomfortable and I just want to use my PC headphones like I would a PC, but on the Xbox 360. If you have any answers that be great.

    :)

    Using a PC Mic (but not headset) with headphones

    Hi

    I have Triton X1 headset, but the mic side makes my head ache and the cups are sweaty, so I'm using my lovely Sennheiser audio headphones.

    If I get a 2.5mm male to 3.5mm female audio cable, can I put a standard PC microphone and use that, hear myself through my audio headphones?

    thanks

    There are a few work a rounds you can do.

    1) There are mic and headphone connectors for 360 from 3rd party developers that plug into controller and let you connect a standard PC headset to a 360 controller

    2) you could simply ignore the mic and plug headphones into the TV then put the 360 headset over them and set it to play voice back through speakers then you get the voice chat through the headphones and the headset over the top to talk into and talk to
    people.

    3) The final one is a mix of both and I'm not sure if it even works, you connect your headset with the mic bit in the controller and the headphone audio into the TV headphone socket then change the 360 settings to play voice chat etc through the speakers
    which as you have the headphone plugged in should put the sound through the headphone to you.

    Buy a Turtle Beach headset, compatible with both 360 & PC so problem solved.

    I would like to use the same headset for my PC for my Xbox as well. I still don't understand why Xbox doesn't have a 3.5 mm jack on the Xbox itself with the other ports.

    Audio headphones/Turtle beach streaming mic

    Hi there,

    When the audio headphones are plugged into the AV receiver, there is game sound, but I cant hear anyone in my party chat. I only see their gamertag show up in the chat overlay. They hear me thru the stream mic just fine. In Halo 5, setting audio to Speaker,
    or to Headphones doesnt change anything.

    If I plug the headphones into the Turtle Beach stream mic, its onboard amplifier does a decent job driving the audio headphones, since the stream mic is powered via USB, but the amplifier is low quality by comparison to my AV receiver. I only got the stream
    mic so I could use my AV receiver to listen to my audio headphones in online gaming. I never expected or planned on using it to power the headphones.

    Can I even can plug the Sennheiser game headphones into the AV receiver and the Mic into the controller now? If this stream mic is already connected to the XBOX via USB, and chat is only available when the headphones are connected into the stream mic and
    both run to the XBOX wired via USB, is it correct to assume that PC gaming headphones with a built in mic also cannot be split (the mic connected to the controller and chat sound coming through the AV receiver)? Im starting to think both the headphones and
    the mic must be connected to the controller together, communicating to the XBOX wirelessly, or ill just get game sound through the headphones and no chat like I am niw with this set up?
