    Well Mogui, the AX Pro requires a 5.1 surround sound output. I'm not familiar with too many PC that have onboard 5.1 outputs,... so to use it with the average PC you'd need to first have a 5.1 sound card installed. However, if all you got to do you can do on the PC, and use with the Xbox or PS3...

    Look man,... if it even smells like you got a crappy unit, take it back and exchange it for another unit. BB is extremely good about that. Not quite sure what moving your router closer to the Xbox would do as this is a wired headset.

    Ahw man,... that's a bummer. If you had an optical out, you could blend you 720's into your entire HT system,... to include the Xbox! Think I'll try that myself,... I think I noticed an optical out on the back of that thing when I was hooking stuff up!

    Man,... if you're sittin' on $100 in gift cards, spend the bucks you would normally have to spend on the 720's, add it to the gift cards, and get yourself the X41. They'll cover all the hook up stuff you're talking about, plus they sound better than the 180's, 720's and the Pro's, they're 7.1...

    Well the main difference between them is one had individual drivers in the ear cup for each surround channel while the other one doesn't. The AX 720's are basically stereo headsets driven by Dolby virtual surround sound. The AX Pro's have 4 drivers in each ear cup,... one for the front, one for...

    Hey,... anyone hear of a fairly solid AX 900 release date? Based on the first date I heared some time back, there should have been some noise by now.

    So let me get this straight. You're taking a 5.1 headset with (4) 3.5mm jacks and using the micro advantage to connect to your laptop that doesn't have a 5.1 sound card and at the same time retaining your 5.1 surround sound. Nice! So the Advantage must have the four 5.1 output jacks, an optical...

    I almost did that, but I was eyeballin' the a similar product from Creative Labs. But read so many bad reviews on them. What scared me most were all the comments stating that these products were recognized by PC's not as external sound cards but as speakers. And as such, not really off loading...

    OMG,... the G35's are in my opinion, the best sounding and sonically versatile headsets out there. But their versatility ends there,.... you can ONLY use them on a PC. So if you only game on the PC, no better bang for the dollar as far as I'm concerned. When I say sonically versatile, what I...

    That's a good question. I imagine BB/Tritton will in short order. That's basically what the AX 51Pro was to the AX Pro,... a second headset w/a G9 adapter allowing it to be used on it's own on the PC platform, IF your PC had a modern 5.1 sound card. Maybe they're waiting to see algo.

    Yeah,... I forgot all about that small print. But not a real big deal. I bought some rechargeable AAA's the same night I when through BB checkout for the X41,... never opened the package. Granted, only had the X41 for about a week, but the el cheapo batts that came with X41 lasted through the...

    Well I think the X41 is a fine choice, although a bit pricey for what it is. They sound fine,... just as good if not better than the AX 720's. The ONLY problem I had with the X41 was the difficulty I had connecting it to my laptop,... a serious case of AC hum. Most, if not all of the problems...

    No. You're thinking about the AX Pros. The AX 720 comes with a G6 adapter,... their proprietary din on one end and the standard pink and green 3.5's on the other end. Just jam those right in your PC headphone and mic jacks. Pink is mic BTW. The AX Pro's on the other hand, are optical or 5.1...

    Frostburn,... did you have your Dolby settings matched up correctly? If my memory serves me, there are actually 3 Dolby settings. I believe you wanna have all four lights white (a more purple-ish white to be more accurate) when you play Halo and other 5.1 Xbox games. That's also the movie mode...

    Good luck on those AX 720's,... you're gonna love'em. If you have any RZ, use them. You're also right when you say the 720's are basically a stereo headset, but the Dolby box turns them into much much more,... just wait-n-see. You'll be pleasantly surprised. Yes, the Ax Pro's have been...

    You're right. I had an extra optical cable laying around from my old DirecTV days that's much longer than the short skinny pretender Tritton gives us (Verizon supplied both a DVI and optical when they put FiOS in here). You're right, now the decoder box is closer to the middle allowing me to at...

    Nah,... the AX Pros are a keeper. I'm tired of takin' stuff back,... gettin' kinda old. And with me being able to afford two headsets with all the price matching and discounting, my demands on one single headset aren't as exacting as they were when I first started shoppin' around. I'm ok now...

    WOW! Ok, I've done some Halo 3, some COD, and bits and pieces of some DVD favorites. These things do sound good. Much better fidelity than the AXPC Pros. Confirms my suspicions that software drivers and onboard software Dolby processing holds these headsets back. Driving this current Tritton...
