Can I use Headphones to hear in-game audio through an xbox? Is there a 3.5 mm port to do so? If not, will I be forced to buy a new stereo system?

My son reports that the headphone gear he has used (Triton, Turtle Beach) plug into the back of his Xbox, not the monitor.

I am 99% certain that this is possible. The settings can be adjusted in the xbox menu. If I recall correctly, I actually set this up when I had a friend over and we played online with a third friend. Game sounds through the tv/monitor and chat through the headset.

Yup. Nothing I've done made my mic work better on Xbox One. I just ended up buying a pair of Turtle Beaches and just using my Polks for my laptop. When I used my Polks, people on Xbox told me I had a subtle echo and was incredibly quiet. I used 2 different updated controllers and 2 different mic adapters, but to no avail. Same story with the 'fixed' replacement mic they sent me. Awesome sound, horrible mic.

sort of i guess, depends on what you are using it for. It has the ability to take 2 different sound sources. One from the wireless adapter it comes with and then it can also connect via bluetooth or the small 2.5mm jack used by xbox controllers. Though honestly i would avoid this as mine has broken so many time from just wearing them, the bluetooth has always sounded like crap (the one you use for its mic and voice chat) and always had the main sound cutting in and out while right next to the base station.

This system has no standard 3.5mm audio ports. It does have an analog L/R output, you could probably get an adapter for. Of course, having standardized technology is beyond Sony's understanding.

Do these only work for in-game chat on the ps3 or can i get fully game audio through them?

I have an Xbox. So not sure if this will help, but the answer is no. I was semi disappointed learning this once I bought them, however, now I don't even realize the cord is even there. It will attach from the bottom of the right ear piece and go into your controller. The cord is only for the mic. So if you unplug it you will still hear everything in full quality but no one well hear you in gaming online. Sounds quality wise I would rate them one step below Beats Studio headphones. They are very precise where the sounds are coming from and feels more like you are in the game. Hope this helps. P.S.- Not noise canceling either. I have an Xbox.

No..the headphones can only be used to communicate with other players. My son said that you can turn the volume down and still hear the game in the headphones but that is only with certain games.. in order to see if that game does that you have to look on the back of the game.. sorry.. my son said the only thing you can do is lower the volume

I have an XP400 and just bought the Xbox one. I have the $30 xbox adapter that goes on the controller and thought that would do it. Sound works great but I can't get any microphone action. I think I need to buy a $10 wire that will go from my headset to the controller. Paying a bunch of extra money to downgrade my headset. Sucks.

Hi there, you did not say which xBox model you own, but the Bose mic will not work for gaming. Please refer to the xBox forum below for details on what model headsets will work, and any possible adaptors you may need: http://forums.xbox.com/xbox_forums/xbox_support/xbox_one_support/f/4269/p/1711445/4553333.aspx

What are you using it for, music or gaming. The set comes with different adaptors depending on what you plug into. Do not buy this for PS4 or Xbox, it is stereo only and not directional. If you use it for music, the standard cables plug into your TV and the adaptors let you plug into your players. None of the adaptors improve or reduce the quality, they just let you use it for all the different purposes.

Go to panasonics web site and they have one listed that is compatible. You can also hook it via Ethernet cord with no additional pieces. You can hook the the Panasonic via digital optical cord for sound. Then ur panasonuc should provide sound to your xbox. Good luck

I'm pretty sure the Xbox One only has 1 optical port in the back of the Xbox. But I think you can daisy chain them. Plug the Optical cable from the "in" port of one transmitter into the "out" port of the 2nd transmitter. Then plug the Optical cable from the "in" port of the 2nd transmitter into the optical port of the Xbox One. You guys both should get surround sound with no problems. Have fun wreckin noobs.

According to posts in the AVS Forum, headphones can be connected via the RCA analog audio outputs. Are you trying to listen simulataneously via speakers and headphones, though? I'd be interested to know if that is possible without connecting an external sound system. TIA.
