Xbox Stereo Headset (Wired)

Description

The Xbox Stereo Headset 8LI-00002 is a no-frills but well-rounded wired headset tailored for gamers who want reliable audio and chat clarity without fuss. It’s designed to work directly with a controller (via 3.5 mm audio jack) or with PCs — no batteries, chargers or wireless pairing needed.

• Sound Quality & Spatial Audio Support

• The headset uses 40 mm drivers (with composite diaphragm and neodymium magnets) to deliver a stereo sound output.
• It supports spatial-sound formats: you can get enhanced immersion in games with surround-sound technologies like Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos, or DTS Headphone:X. This helps you better pick up directional cues — footsteps, environmental sounds, distant explosions — improving immersion and competitive awareness.

• Compatibility & Easy Setup

• Works with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PCs (or any device with a 3.5 mm jack).
• Connects directly to your controller via 3.5 mm audio jack — no special adapters, no charging, no Bluetooth pairing.

• Comfortable, Functional Design

• Over-ear design with soft, padded earcups and an adjustable headband helps distribute pressure evenly — suitable for extended play sessions.
• On-earcup controls let you adjust volume or mute quickly.
• Boom microphone is adjustable and can be tucked away when not needed, offering flexibility whether you’re gaming, chatting, or listening to music.

• What It’s Good For

• Comfortable for long single-player or multiplayer sessions.
• Great for chat-heavy games or voice calls thanks to the built-in mic and on-ear controls.
• Good value for gamers looking for straightforward, reliable wired audio — especially if you prefer simplicity over features like wireless or noise cancelling.
• Works across Xbox consoles and PC without extra setup or accessories.

• Considerations & Trade-offs

• Because it’s wired — you’re tethered to your console or PC (no wireless freedom).
• No active noise cancellation — ambient noise may seep in if you’re in a loud environment.
• Stereo output, even with spatial sound support, won’t match high-end dedicated gaming headsets for premium audio fidelity — but adequate for most gaming and chat needs.
• Since connection relies on the 3.5 mm jack, you need a controller (or PC headset jack) to plug into — it won’t connect directly to console sans controller.
