- Quick start guide
A: It depends on how old your controller is. If it doesn’t have a 3.5 mm jack then you’ll have to buy an adapter
Q: I’ve read some reviews that these are good for people who wear glasses. Any personal input?
A: I wear glasses and these work great for me. They are very comfortable and are large enough to completely cup my ears. I don't notice any pressure at all on my glasses when I'm wearing this headset.
A: Very loud, seal outside noises very well.
Q: Is it safe to assume these have a usb plug or just an audio jack?
A: No usb only audio plug and a included splitter for the mic on a PC.
Q: Does it work with Nintendo Switch?
A: Yes, the headset will work with the Nintendo Switch.
Q: Does it come with foam that you can place on the mic?
A: Nope, However the Mic is pretty awesome as are the ear cuffs. Very comfortable. I had the HyperX Cloud Pro (I think it’s called) to do my streaming & videos, that one has foam over the mic, but after a year it stopped working. They said they were replacing it a month ago and never did. This does not come with foam. The mic is EXCELLENT though. Snap up to hear a click and muted, down and try best angles to get the best sound. It’s even a bit flexible. I’m really happy with this. Sound is crystal clear. One tip/warning: I’m a big Dude with a big head and these are WIDELY SPACED. Even with them snapped to their most tight, they still are a bit loose even on me. However, the cups rotate so you can still get a perfect fit over your ears, it just takes getting used to feeling almost nothing on top of your head. I suppose that’s a good thing actually. I highly recommend these. It does a great job picking up sounds and doesn’t pick up sounds it shouldn’t as long as you place it properly. I have to go down to around my chin. Tested it using PS4 audio accessory area and then speaking while moving about 1/2” at a time. Once in the proper place, it doesn’t pick up even my breathing, just my voice. PS: you can buy foam mic tips separately, pretty cheaply. Best Buy is the best place to get these headphones btw. I looked everywhere and they have the best price and fastest delivery. PPS: HMU on my channel on (same as username here) and lmk how they worked out for you. :)
Q: Can you mute your mic with these
A: Yes
Q: I want to buy these for my 8 year old grandson. Will this fit a typical kids head?
A: My son first started using one at 11. Unless your grandson is on the smaller side, it should work.
