Yes I will. I will be showing how to do the re-wire as well soon. Thanks for the kind words.

[CLANnameWTF]

well how do u hear anyone cuz if u have a mic pluged in on the 360 controller than the sound of the people talking will go to the speaker on the thats on the mic and not the speakers on the headset

[MrRaiomCurst]

@CLANnameWTF sorry clan i don't seem to understand your question fully, hopefully I get it right. All your sound will go to your headset as the mix-amp is designed to relay both voice and sound from in game through its internal mix amp. Hence that is why it is called Astro mix amp. The headset plugs into the wireless mix amp and the wireless mixamp to the controller. Sound is sent 7.1 from the wired amp connected to your 360,or PS3 to thre wireless controller and it sent to your headset.

what other mic could i get? that mic is far to expensive for what it is dude

[MrRaiomCurst]

@VoiD1x the mic is currently $17.99 with free shipping on Ebay

Thank you for this review I will most likely be doing this set up but im wondering instead of the astro mix amp if I can replace it with the turtle beach DSS, not sure if you know what it is but its essentially the same thing as the mix amp but its smaller,cheaper and I heard close to sound quality. I dont know much about technology I just want to know if it would serve the same purpose

[MrRaiomCurst]

@simonx348 It will serve its purpose as an amp. Your just looking for decent sound with decent sound stage and clarity. I wont say all amps are created equal because there not, but I'm also not going to bash turtle beach as I've had a few as well. always go with whats within your budget. At the end of the day you will enjoy the game and the sound will be to your liking. Have fun.

So you need a mix amp if you want to use this mic with your 360?

[RaiomCurst]

Thanks everyone for the compliments.

[RaiomCurst]

No I do not recommend the zalaman clip on Mic. Mics like that are open and will pick up all noise including the sound from your tv. That would be a little hard on the people you are playing with.

[NCorrigan2014]

can you do this with a standard xbox live microphone????

[Zcypot]

@VoiD1x Im not sure if you have gotten your mic yet,but zalaman clipon mic from amazon is dirt cheap. Only problem is you have tape it to the headset like in this vid.

[TROUS3RS]

Guys, an alternative mic is a turtlebeach replacement mic or just go on amazon and get a '3.5mm flexible mic' and a 3.5 to 2.5 cord if you are plugging into the controller or just a 3.5mm female to male extension if using amp.

[TROUS3RS]

Are there any alternatives to the labtec because it is not sold in the uk at all. Also is this a good clip on mic to use-Go to amazon uk type in mini compact 3.5mm and click on the bv and Jo mic. Would this fit into the xbox controller with an adapter?

i did this mic mod on my bayer dt990s, it works perfect!

[firedragoncow1234]

Good thing you wore black gloves. You could have smudged something. Goddamn neckbeard.
