You need another item with this headset, caution.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Old headset broke after 5 years so i replaced with these. The headset I received did not work correctly when plugged into the 3.5mm jack on the xbox controller. I tried 3 different controllers and all the same result. At maximum volume the sound was slightly louder then a whisper. This apparently is a known flaw with this headset. You can find other reviews online saying the same exact thing. The only reason i did not bring them back was because I was able to get them working when i used the adapter from my previous headset (Turtle Beach stealth 400s.) When plugged in with the TB adapter this headset works great. Good sound (rivals my stealth 400s), pretty comfortable, free Dolby Atmos subscription for 2 years (not sure the description mentions that the Atmos subscription is only 2 years, i believe they leave that little detail out. probably in fine print somewhere.) One more possible problem is that these might cause feedback if you are in a chat with friends. I cannot verify this totally as i am usually playing by myself but I have had one friend tell me that they were getting an echo from me (echo is when they talk and hear themselves in my audio.) That never happened with my old headset. I adjusted the microphone angle to tilt a little more downwards (further away from the earpiece) and that seem to fix it. Again i'm ok with this purchase because I got them on sale and was lucky that I had an old TB adapter but the fact that I had to even use a part from the headset i was replacing Is insane for a headset that retails for $100 dollars. Maybe thats why they have been 1/2 price for the last month? Guess that leaves room for you to buy a TB adapter as well if you want to look at it that way.

Great price; not so great quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Obviously you see the deal from $100 to $50. I got mine on the daily deal for $40. You think wow, great price. The headset itself is well-built. The problem is the 3.5mm connection to the controller. There is one knob to control the volume of the headset. I also started having issues with the connection itself, I have to move it around sometimes to get the audio to work. I think the quality is there, but if I am already having small issues with it within 2 weeks, it's going to be a no for me. Fortunately, I still have the chance to return it. Even though it was $40 and like I said, it's a comfortable headset, I will end up returning it.

Great sound, but HORRIBLE mic.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these to replace my old headset and now I'm only using these to play singleplayer games or when I'm not playing with friends. The microphone is horrible. My friends are able to hear my TV and their voices even when my television is turned all the way down and my headset is turned all the way down. I can hear my own voice and their game when they have their whole set turned down, as well. Unfortunately I'm having to use my old headset to be able to talk to my friends since these Rig 500s have crappy mics. Tldr; Sounds amazing, but the mic echoes for both parties even with volumes down
