cool, was looking for a gaming headset for about 30$ and i'll take it this is the best deal I'll find. thanks for sharing

This looks pretty good. Has anyone had any experiences (good or bad) with ben's outlet? Their reseller rating is a mixed bag @ 6.44 http://www.resellerratings.com/st...n_s_Outlet

Also, lol @ the 5XB and 4XB being for 360 and PC, and the 7XB being for 360, PC and Mac

I JUST bought the 4XB yesterday... I would have paid an extra $8 for these in black :D Oh well. Good deal on these!

I bought some batteries from them that took about 3 weeks to get in the past and just recently ordered 2 pairs of the xp400's on the 6th and the tracking shows they should arrive 15th-18th.

They are related to 1saleaday so I would not expect fast shipping.

I got these (or a very similar model) from onesaleaday a few weeks ago. I don't know if I'd buy them again. For starters, the plug-in that goes into the controller does not fit flush with the edge of the controller and comes out very easily. The headband is very comfortable, same with the ear cups. It also gets very loud. There is a constant buzzing during silence with mine, though. At this price it seems like an ok deal, 20 bucks would be better.

Good info there. Thanks! :repped:

I've bought quite a few things from them and have Han no issues. Shipping is a bit slow sometimes. It's hit or miss. I've received orders in a few days and up to two weeks. Usually they will have a note on the product page listing the delay time.

well, the seller isn't suspect, but the product is. seems to break too easily

I brought this headset last time it was on sale for the same price. Can't complain at all Use it for counter strike go and no one ever complains about my MIC being crappy

Brought this headset from the last deal... Good for the price.. I like how you can retract the mic :)

Finally a reasonably priced/decent headset to use for CS:GO!!

in for 1! thanks op

I bought these, unfortunately the tip of the input jack came off and is currently rattling inside my 360 controller.

I bought these from a previous 1saleaday deal for a similar price and have been using it for my xbox 360 since. The connection piece to the controller does tend to be somewhat loose but mine hasn't disconnected accidentally. One of the main issues is that if you were using your controller wirelessly you'll have to get used to being tethered to your console again. I liked it so much I actually bought one for my brother who loves it as well. The sound is pristine and the hideaway mic is nice too.

Good deal, finally replacing my old but trusty turtle beach headset.

Bought this previously from 1saleaday. They are pretty nice, mainly just use them for my PC.

Make sure you mic boost in control panel>sound because before I boosted it, no one could hear me lol.
Also, the sound is pretty leaky. Whenever I turn my music up or anything, I can clearly hear it when I take them off.

I bought a couple of things from them. Their products were great, but their customer service is horrible. The first time my product took 13 days to ship. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and bought again, and this time it took 19 days!!! Their CS just says something about their process and verifying orders and their backlog from the all their sales going on. Lots of BS to just waive us off. But if you don't mind the wait...

These are fun headsets, but few caveats:

1. You must remain plugged into the xbox. Not a problem for me, as I prefer wire controllers.
2. Slight buzzing when silent if not completely plugged in.

That being said, these headsets are very comfy and clear sound. I've bougth two from onesaleaday and I love them. Biggest downside is shipping takes a while.

Seller is suspect. stay away.

let's see how these headphones perform.

Mine just arrived today. The headphones sound like putting your head in a fishbowl. They are comfortable though, so it's a comfortable fishbowl?

The microphone is nothing special.... typical cs:go microphone sounds.

At least yours works.... Mine arrived today and one of the speakers has no sound. After I twisted it slightly, I got sound, but it was scratchy. If I moved a little, it would go back out. I'm sad :(

After using this headset for the past few days I must say that I regret this purchase. Had someone posted an audio sample of the microphone; I would have definitely saved my money and did some more research before impulse buying this headset.

This headset is targeted towards teenagers that cannot distinguish quality and just want to talk with their friends on xbox. There is a noticeable hiss on the microphone which is probably attributed to steelseries using low quality components. The headphones lack bass and there really isn't much going for this headset. To the numerous reviews on the internet: I'm ashamed that they didn't blatantly call out that this headset is junk. Should have taken to heart the reviews on amazon.
