Hey guys. I know the x41 headphones from Turtle Beach have been out for some time now but I'm just now getting them and I wanted to post my comments incase anyone else is thinking about getting them.
I LOVE these headphones. They are great for any game, especially CoD, sports games, and everything in between. The surround sound you get with these headphones is amazing. 7:1 Dolby Digital surround sound.
All the game sounds are so crisp and clear. The chat is crystal clear too. It has a neat little feature where it will automatically increase chat volume if game volume increases. I had to buy a little xbox audio dongle since I use HDMI. $4 on eBay with free shipping.
Also, they're $160 brand new but I got a refurbished pair on eBay with all the factory accessories and a 30 day warranty for $89. A GREAT deal. I highly recommend these headphones for any serious gamer (which we all are lol).
The only gripe I have about them is that my Wi-Fi signal interferes with my signal from the wireless headphones. Not a big deal, just worth noting. _________________________________________________________

A little pricey, but worth the extra cash.. I give them a thumbs up, probably 8/10 overall.. My own turtle beach had a small issue when you move the mic around, it crackles like a mo' fo.
They are great, especially for online games with surround sound support like call of duty, battlefield and just about all the latest games. The battery life could be better, but hey just grab some rechargables and your away!
I bet your happy with them SIK!

No, I haven't tried switching the wi fi channel yet. I'll definitely try that.
Those look sick Scar!! Too bad they're corded though. The 7.1 surround sound really does make a difference. _________________________________________________________

@ scarface,
pretty slick mate, I haven't seen those one's before, I don't think we have them here..
@ sik_wid_it
Let us know if changing your wireless channel works, hopefully it will sort everything out for you. I have two seperate wireless networks here at home and they both work fine with my X41's.. _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:

The X41's are the slickest gear I have bought for my 360 so far, Turtle beach have done a very fine job on them. I have had mine since they came out and they havent missed a beat yet.
All the newer models are just the x41's with little tweeks. So if you are after a cheaper alternative go the originals, highly recommend them _________________________________________________________ Mattster
