Stereo Headset Adapter and Turtle Beach X12

Stacks VII · Feb 28, 2014

I would like to use my Turtle Beach X12 Headset on my Xbox One however my TV lacks audio out so I can't even get game audio. I was wondering if the adapter will be able to resolve that issue or am I going to have to buy an entirely new headset for
the Xbox One?

Try updating the controller a few times, don't know why but my controller took three updates to get the Turtle Beach X12 headset to work correctly. Link below gives you a guide on how to do this:

Your Turtle Beach X12 headset used an USB for power, and also has controls for sound levels. The Stereo Headset Adapter has only an 3.5 mm, 4 pole, Audio jack for phone plug. The adapter has Controls include volume up/down, microphone mute, and game/chat
balance. I would say buy another headset, MS has one for 79.99 with adapter.

I can not believe there is no Bluetooth adapter. I really don't want to pay for some hacked up thing on eBay. They just needed to have power pass through and it may have worked. Ugly but maybe worked.

The best way to get your x12's to work on your xbox one is the DSS2 surround sound adapter from turtle beach

actually i found if u go on ebay and buy a digital to analogue audio converter and a toslink cable (less than £10/$18 together) that u can hook ur x12s up for game sound as i had the same issue and now i can hear bf4 again and just talk through kinect as
mic or buy stereo headset adaptor for the chat if ur feeling particularly well off, either way still better than getting a new headset

If your headphones are anything like mine (Turtle Beach X12) then the Optical cables goes from the Xbox One into the DSS2 your headset plugs into the DSS2 then the talkback cable goes into the headset adapter. Now make sure you turn down the game volume
on the headset adapter as you want SS not Stereo. You should be ready to go after that.
