I'm stumped and looks for some help lads and lasses.
I've never used an aftermarket headset, always used the official 360 headset for chatting and just had the audio through my TV like normal, despite all my friends swearing by turtle beach headsets.
A few weeks ago, after barely 2 months of use and not being mistreated in the slightest, my official Xbox One headset packed up. A new one was sent out by MS but I've decided to get a decent headset.
My demands:
£150 budget
Wireless from console, don't mind having a cable from the controller to the headset but I can't have a cable from the console to the headset as I have a dog and kids who will no doubt trip over it and break something.
Surround Sound - Decent quality sound too
Would be nice:
Ability to stream music to the headset
So far I have been looking at the new XO7's but after speaking to a TB rep this afternoon on email he confirmed they were a wired headset. Also looked at the upcoming Polk headset but the cost of fixing these outside of warranty scares me a bit and no parts are available for them t would seem, also the Astro's but not sure if Astro are going to have access to an X1 adaptor anytime soon.
What would you guys recommend to me?
