headset I plugged it into a turtle beach adapter on my controller, at this point it was feeding game audio and chat audio through the
headset and I managed to set the chat and game audio levels perfectly obviously this is a chat
headset and was designed simply for party chat audio in mind, I plugged the
headset into my Xbox controllers 3.5 mm port and tested out its functionality, I could hear the party just as clear as I would a more expensive gaming
headset but obviously this time no game chat was fed through, when asking how my microphone sounded to

above acceptable especially for a chat
headset.
