So I've owned my 360 for over a year and almost never play online games, because people tend to kick you off as soon as they see you don't have a headset. I do have a headset (a nice wireless turtlebeach), but I don't use it because I also have a $20,000 Bowers & WIlkins audio setup on my entertainment system and I don't want to sacrifice the enjoyment of my audio system while playing games, just so I can communicate with some ten year old dork in GWAR2. Are there any quality headset microphones that are just mics and not headphones? Preferably that would plug into the wireless controller and that won't have problems with feedback or room noise of my speaker system? It just seems ridiculous to do all your gaming through a cheap set of headphones, simply so you can talk to people. Any guidance certainly appreciated.
Ok.....um.....why would you want to hear someone's voice through your $20k speakers? The ambiance of the game should be coming through there not their talking.
I simply want to be able to use my speakers for my gaming and have a headset that is nothing more than a mic (and possibly an earpiece for the return conversation). Unfortunately, there only seem to be two or three options - such as the official Microsoft 360 Wireless Communicator which has a tiny mic-boom that wouldn't reach your cheek, has a bad battery life and supposedly picks up ambient noise like crazy. I'd like something that will pick up my voice clearly, but not piss off other people I'm talking to because of any weird echo, feedback or distortion provided by the speakers in the room.
