R-3 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Im not a pc gaming guy. Too complicated and way to expensive. I lean on my 360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Stereo bluetooth devices are still pretty expensive relative to proprietary RF doodads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I was reading that the plantronic's headsets were linking pretty easy. The one with sound cancellation was running right around $50 or so if I recall correctly. I will have to look it up again. I may be mistaken though.

Krux Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 dont waste your time on anything but these http://www.turtlebeach.com/products/efx3/home.aspx only down side is they need to plug into a controller, so if you are a xbox remote kind of guy you would need to readjust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpunk Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 go with the ones krux put up. I don't think you'll find any better then that. You may find some cheaper but not a whole lot and they aren't going to be near as nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-3 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Well here is the one in the ad on craigs. Its the upgraded version of the Ex3. What about it? http://www.turtlebeach.com/products/efx4/home.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 This is a case where you usually get what you pay for. I purchased a bluetooth headset for about $60 but it is usually just hanging on the TV/PC/Theater rack. (I have a dedicated home theater pc that controls everything) My biggest complaint with the bluetooth headset is that I either get great Mono sound or Stereo sound that is full of static. (Basically I spent $60 for something I only used a couple of times and even then the quality of what I heard was subpar) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smann Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Why don't you buy one of these from me, I'm sure they have a headphone jack for night gaming and some awesome sound when everyone is up:D http://www.pnwmas.org/forums/showthread.php?t=11844 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
