The £40 Turtle Beaches are 2.1 stereo, not surround sound.
I have X11s (2.1) and they're still damn good.
you get what you pay for mate.
that being said if you looking to be immersed into the game i would spend more money
if you want one just so you dont wake the family i would go with the 60$ sharkoons off amazon (prolly about 75 gbp? not sure the conversion rate today)
I tried to private message you but it didn't work. I've been considering the X11s for a while. I don't play competitively, but it would be cool to have a slight edge over my opponents. The other day on Black Ops some guy was raving out his X11s, he said you could hear footsteps great, and planting/defusing bombs across the map. Is this true? I'm not too worried about that, I mostly want them so while my wife is sleeping I can play without her waking up.The £40 Turtle Beaches are 2.1 stereo, not surround sound.

hey, thanks for the response, i knew the x11s werent surround sound, i just didnt word it properly :/ but yeah i have another question, i use a hdmi cable with my xbox 360 and ive heard that theres problems with that when it comes to headsets could anyone explain it to me, im not sure what id have to do if i bought the x11s for instance. if i bought the x41s would i have any problems?
I researched a lot of headphones awhile ago, and I feel that the Tritton AX720's are the best value for performance and money.
The x41s are superb. I would give them a 9/10, just make sure you get rechargeable batteries because battery time is the only problem or complaint I have with mine.hey, thanks for the response, i knew the x11s werent surround sound, i just didnt word it properly :/ but yeah i have another question, i use a hdmi cable with my xbox 360 and ive heard that theres problems with that when it comes to headsets could anyone explain it to me, im not sure what id have to do if i bought the x11s for instance. if i bought the x41s would i have any problems?

ive seen some x41s for £80 on amazon so im tempted to get them but i dunno, im without income atm so i dont know if i can justify spending so much on a headset.
I have the X11's and think they are Ace. The sound quality is excellent, especially for the price. I play mine through HDMI, you can get an adaptor with the Xbox I think.
Also, if you have a Plasma TV, be careful what wireless set you get as the older ones were interupted by the plasma signal, Im unsure of the new ones.
i think im gonna go with the x11s, i cant really afford to buy the surround sound wireless headsets. so now if i buy the x11s what else will i need to buy in order to make it work with hdmi? or can i just switch to component cables and not have to buy anything? ive tried researching stuff but it doesnt explain entirely
right ive looked everywhere and no one seems to make it clear. is there an easy way that i can just connect the headset up to my xbox slim without having to buy anything? i really need a simple answer because im just getting too confused
I have the X41s and I connect my 360 to my receiver with HDMI and then use an optical cable from the 360 to the X41 base station, so I can get audio out of both without switching anything. I'll also note that I have an older 360, so there is no optical output physically on the device, so I had to buy an adapter, but you should be fine with the slim, as it has built in optical (I think). Another cool thing, if it applies to you, is that I can also use the X41s on my PS3.right ive looked everywhere and no one seems to make it clear. is there an easy way that i can just connect the headset up to my xbox slim without having to buy anything? i really need a simple answer because im just getting too confused
