"Emerse your self in the true gaming experience"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is a must have for anyone who love to game, i was skeptical on what it was going to be like to play with a full head set but it has added a new dimension to my gaming. I thought that i was into the atmosphere of the games before but being able to totally emerse yourself in the sound of a game is truely the next level. This headset adds a degree of realism that you have to hear to believe. The SVM is a mus thave feature otherwise you would find yourself yelling all the time. My advice is if you can afford this get it!!!

"High Quality at an affordable price"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Tritton Detonators – Picked up on special for $100.

These cans certainly deliver a high quality sound, and great build quality. The 50mm Drivers give great mid-range bass, and the attachable microphone produces clear voice communication. It's easy to be skeptical given the price, but this headset ticks almost all of the boxes. One thing to note: If you are running an HDMI setup on your 360, make sure the ends on your HDMI cable are quite thin, as you may have difficulty plugging in the analog adaptor if they are too thick.

Pros

  • Great audio quality
  • Clear Voice
  • Comfortable
  • Plenty of features, Price

Cons

  • Alot of cabling (A given due to the price)
  • Lack of surround sound

"Horrible microphone"
2 stars"

The microphone has to be right up against my mouth for it to actually pick up my voice.

"Good sound"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great headset. I use it for Xbox. Works really well. Great having control of game and voice volume separate. Does get a little uncomfortable after long periods

"One flaw"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This headaset is great for xbox. I love the extra cable to allow you to plug your hdmi cord to the tv while using the headset. Makes for nice picture and sound I found them to be really nice as headphones with my I phone listing to music. This headset is good alround till you get to the mic it a bit stiff to move and a bit of force is need to pull it out also u need to talk louder than normal for this headset to pick up your voice overall great headset recomend bying it but if has one flaw which you will have to deal with great headset for great price

"All purpose"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This headset is an all-rounded for his price. Gets to connect to your Xbox360, PC and phone. Even though you may need an adaptor plug for this last one (Some cases).

When playing at is loudest even the neighborgs can hear you (but who wants to get deaf while playing). Is sound is clear but not involvent, yet it delivers for the average gamer and completely mutes the outside world.

The long cables complaint, actually fits me perfectly since my living room is large and it gets to the lounge all the way from the TV throught the room.

It's build in solid materials which make it very durable and its looks are super :geek mode on: sexy.

One of my best buys this year, THX a lot Mighty Ape.

Delivery and service from MA as always, ace.

"Awesome Quality for Awesome $$"
5 stars"

"Entry level Headset / Portability"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The detonator is your basic headset.I found the earcups uncomfortable so I ended up taking the earcups off an old set of broken PX21's(PX21TB last about 1–2 years tops) and putting them on the detonator problem solved … Game sound is OK just no real bass in them … Good for xbox chat … The SVM when turned on produces a low humming noise in the background …but I never use SVM only Americans like the sound of their own voices … Volume controls are fine game and chat but the best thing I believe about this headset is its portability … Being able to plug into any 3.5mm jack mp3/4 phones etc is a real bonus and your able to unplug the mike its really cool why dont they design all headsets like that ---You are not able to have a chat pad as the detonator has a 2.5mm puck design , it is well constructed and tough the headband is maybe a bit to wide for my liking but OK you know it wont break easy like some TB's do I give this Headset a 6/10 …

"Nice for the Price" Purchased on Mighty Ape

These headphones have good sound quality and many useful features. The ability to listen directly to what sound you are “putting out” over your mic really works well to tell if you have any unusual noises that others can hear. (Though this isn't usually a problem, with the adjustable mic).

One issue I have found is that there are some odd noises that are sent out by the mic if the USB is even slightly loose. But this has no effect on the sound quality.

You can use this as a headset and mic for your PC, but you may need a couple of adapters. When using the headset only, with an mp3 player etc., you may have sound issues because the input coming from the headset has 4 points (3 normal ones for the speakers, plus the fourth for the mic) and even though you get sound it is quiet. An adapter can be purchased to remedy this.
