1st of all, the ratio of good reviews to bad ones(as of the time I'm writing this) is roughly 5:1 in favor of the product. I live in a condo and even though I paid to have it sound-proofed, it still won't cover up the 00 Paradigm surround sound system I wanted to purchase. That being the case, I finally(after friends raved about these) broke down and "settled"(or so I thought) for these. After all, Amazon had them for bucks less than everyone else right? I was afraid there'd be problems w/ the wireless situation due to some of the bad reviews. I have it right next to my Apple Time Capsule wireless-N router and have had NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. I've even had my laptop open and on the net right next to me while I'm playing w/o a hitch. I also have a microwave and cordless phone(5.8ghz) within 30' of it. I've tested it for several hours now and it works flawlessly. No static, popping, or echos, etc. It's a little unforgiving performance-wise when batteries get low(not just on the headset, when the 360's controller batteries got low as well). When the batteries on some things get low you can usually "squeeze" a little more time out of them. Not these. Your game controller must have FULL batteries or you'll get a little static(nothing to do w/ your wireless network of course). Most (NOT ALL)of the people having problems w/ these have inherent problems w/ their wireless networks already anyway. Some people just have problems w/ wireless networks at their residence for various reasons(too many computers hooked up to their wireless network w/ too slow internet speeds, other products like cordless phones, microwaves, etc. causing interference). It does say in the instructions if you have a wireless N router to switch it off N to a different band, but I didn't have to do anything. The best feature this product has is the distinct volume controls. You have the game volume and a separate one for chat. It also has a chat boost which AUTOMATICALLY raises the chat volume when the game volume raises(explosions, etc.)! You have to adjust nothing. The best way to set this is turn the game volume all the way down AT FIRST ONLY, then raise the chat volume to your preferred setting. Slowly turn the game volume back up to your desired setting and you're set. The surround dynamics have accurate sound placement and are crystal clear. It will(probably) improve your kill/death ratio a little on games like Modern Warfare 2. I play strictly hardcore team deathmatch, and I my k/d ratio was stuck on 1.57 forever. 2 days w/ the X41's, and I'm up to 1.60 already! I had serious doubts about the recommendations my friends gave me about these, but I couldn't be more satisfied w/ this product!!!

Ear Force® X41 (XBOX LIVE® Chat + Wireless Digital RF Game Audio with Dolby® Headphone 7.1 Surround Sound) Overviews
The X41 is the third generation of wireless headsets from Turtle Beach for the Xbox 360. The X41 combines XBOX live chat with wireless game sound so you can hear the game sound and the voices of other players in the headset. That means you don’t need your XBOX communicator headset or external speakers. By hearing the XBOX Live chat in the center of your head rather than in one ear, you can communicate better online. By eliminating speakers you can turn up the game without disturbing others. And, by having the game sound right on top of your ears, you can hear even the softest sound cues that are impossible to pick up with speakers. Better yet, because of the Dolby surround sound, you can also tell where the sound is coming from. That’s because unlike stereo headphones, where the sound is either to the left or right of you, the X41 has 7.1 channel surround sound that lets you pinpoint the exact direction of every sound cue in the game. So if someone is quietly sneaking up behind you, you’ll know it instantly. You can turn around, react faster and take them out before they take you out. It’s actually like having a secret weapon because it gives you a significant edge over the competition. The X41 uses digital 2.4 Giga Hertz Radio Frequency wireless technology as compared to the X4 which used an analog infra red light beam. This new digital RF technology is a huge improvement over analog IR because it delivers CD-quality sound with no background hiss, no interference from plasma TV screens and no line of sight restrictions between the transmitter and headset. The X41 uses a proprietary uncompressed digital signal with super low latency for dramatic improvement in sound quality. The bass is deeper with more kick. The highs are so crisp and clean that you can hear a pin drop. There’s also a headphone jack and volume control on the transmitter. This lets you connect a wired headset, like our Ear Force X1 or Ear Force XLC.
