"Buying these again for sure."
5 stars"

I got these about a couple months ago and they are definitely one of the best pair of headphones I've used for my Xbox in a long time.

For starters, they're very light and they cover my entire ears, so they don't end up hurting my head after long hours of gaming. The microphone is not at all annoying because it can just easily slide up into the left ear cup, and the wires don't get in the way at all compared to my previous Turtle Beach PX22 which was bloody irritating.

The only downside to it is that they do feel a tad ‘plasticy’ and weak around the headband, but nothing has broken so far. The mute function, game, and chat volume is built onto the jack that plugs into the controller which is very convenient so all I have to do is move my thumbs to adjust something.

Finally, they're very well worth it so get yourself one, and for that price, now. ;)

Description

Meet The Spectrum 5XB
The SteelSeries Spectrum 5×b is a premium quality, wired headset designed for Xbox 360. At a glance it is a versatile, durable, travel-friendly headset. If you're trying to take your game Xbox 360 gaming to the next level, or you are getting harassed at home because of the noise level while gaming, you may just fall madly in love with our Spectrum 5×b.

Amazing Comfort
The comfortable XL-sized, hear-through cloth ear cushions fit comfortably around the ear, offering you a great audio experience while treating your ears like royalty. It's so comfortable that it can be used for multiple hours at a time. Even if you wear glasses.

And It Sounds Great
With the custom-built soundscape via 40mm SunDancer (SCS) units, you are able to pinpoint the direction of noises and movement throughout the game. Whether it's gunfire, music, or even the sound of someone getting pwned to pieces, the sound is incredible. But they do more than just make games sound great, they help you win. You'll hear everything worth hearing.

The SteelSeries AudioMixer
The SteelSeries Spectrum AudioMixer connects the SteelSeries Spectrum 5×b to the Xbox 360 and provides independent audio and voice volume controls. The independent volume controls offer maximum power over what you hear. You no longer have to waste time muting other players.

Full Control
Since the SteelSeries AudioMixer is attached to your Xbox 360 controller, it is really easy to operate. You have the same level of control over your controller as you've always had, our AudioMixer doesn't interfere with normal operations in any way. We've made it really easy to have even more control; now you have independent volume controls, microphone controls and access to LiveMix, all within your thumbs reach.

Travel Friendly
Going somewhere? No problem. The SteelSeries Spectrum 5×b can be dismantled into 3 separate pieces. This makes transporting your headsets easy and safe. No more showing up at a tournament or a friends' house with broken equipment.

SteelSeries LiveMix
The secret sauce. SteelSeries LiveMix offers you a quick-button option to improve the balance of Xbox LIVE chat and in-game audio, so that voice communication is mixed and amplified over the sounds of gunfire and explosions. SteelSeries LiveMix allows you to hear everything that matters in team-based games; you simply click one button to activate this feature. We will balance the levels between Xbox LIVE chat and in-game audio on-the-fly, as the game develops around you, making it easier than ever before for you to hear your teammates.

No Headache
Best of all, LiveMix works without having to increase the volume of the headset and risk headaches or hearing damage. Yay!

Extremely Durable
The headset features a durable, double-braided nylon cord. It's so durable that only tigers, lions and normal regular household cats with seriously sharp teeth can destroy it. Notice: no testing has been done with lions and tigers, but we respect them immensely and like referencing them in our product text. Rawwrr.

Hidden Microphone System
The SteelSeries signature retractable microphone system is also featured in the Spectrum 5×b, providing additional convenience and durability. The microphone is unidirectional and delivers clear voice communication for Xbox LIVE. Everyone will hear you loud and clear. Unless you choose to mute. But that's up to you.
