Turtle Beach Ear Force X41 Wireless Headset for Xbox 360 (Refurbished) $55 + Free Shipping

It was the same price in Newegg.com/marketplace a few days back and it's also from the same seller. I almost pick one up since i don't have to pay shipping and tax but i have no needed for it.

Check again today in newegg.com/marketplace and the price went up to $149.99 from the same seller.

Good price if you don't need to pay tax in 1SaleAday.com

+1 in for one!

Consider the X42s for $15 more:

Less chance of interference with the X42s.

I wouldn't get these. I had a pair and the popping sound when the audio cuts out is pretty unbearable. They sounded great when they worked, but there were too many instances of the audio cutting out and the popping bursting your eardrums to make them worth holding onto. I sold mine on CL and bought a set of XP500s.

That said, the talkback feature and optical in+out on these gives them an advantage over similar headphones from other brands. I love not sounding like I'm underwater.

In 4 1. Great deal!

I've considered these, but is there a big sound difference since the x42's don't have (or advertise) surround 7.1 sound? Does anyone that has tried both notice a difference in sound?

I picked up the x31s at Microcenter for $40 to use between my 360 and PS3, they've been awesome, I just put a 3.5" audio jacker switcher that runs out from the wireless x31 receiver to both consoles, and it's great. The mic works on the 360 by default, but I have to buy another piece to get it to work on the PS3, which I haven't gotten around to.

Debating whether to return my Afterglow nightlite for this. Am reluctant about refurbs though... Need to look into the return policy & any sort of warranty offered

Edit: 90 day warranty

Good deal, and this is a good price. Ordering as a back up.

Damn if I had seen this first I probably woulda got that one...

I have the X11s right now. The wires don't bother me too much, I think I would actually prefer the volume/chat controls being on that little box down on the wire, instead of on the headset where I can't see them. The only thing I don't like is having to connect the headset to the controller for the chat to work. Do you still have to do that with the X41s/X42s?

You will always need to do that, to be able to distinguish players from each other from when you play with more than 1 on a console.

Anytime you use a headset on the 360, you must plug it directly into the controller.

Well that sucks, I wish there was some way around it. So there's a port in the headphones themselves to plus into, correct? Just making sure the cable doesn't run to the receiver or something.

I love and heat these cans. DEFINITELY worth it @ $55!! I paid $85 on woot about a year ago. The problem for me is it cracks and pops often... really aggravates me. That's the only gripe (though a big one). I'd say 3.5/5.

*EDIT*

Hmmmm... X42s or XP500s... I need to change it up. The cracking/popping is truly annoying. I'm willing to give up on these X41s (although again not bad @ $55 here)
