Wireless Digital RF XBOX?˙360 Headset with?˙XBOX LIVE Chat and Stereo Game Sound

The Ear Force X31 elevates your XBOX gaming experience to a new level with superior stereo sound and a crystal-clear, digital RF wireless connection. With its comfortable ergonomic design, exceptional sound quality and XBOX LIVE online chat, the X31 immerses you in the game as you communicate with online players, and blocks out distractions so you can focus on the action.

Playing your favorite XBOX game with the Ear Force X31 gives you a significant advantage because you can hear sound cues that you can not hear with speakers like the soft footsteps of an enemy sneaking up on you, or the click of a loading weapon in the distance. By hearing sounds others can not, you will react faster and take them out before they take you out.

If you are serious about your XBOX 360 gaming, get serious about the sound. Move up to the Ear Force X31 and become a better player while experiencing XBOX 360 games as they were meant to be heard.

Conventional XBOX 360 communicator headsets compromise the gaming experience by covering one ear for chat, leaving the other ear to hear game audio from the speakers. Ear Force headsets overcome this problem by playing both the game audio and online chat on a single set of high fidelity headphones. The result is a more intense experience with the privacy, clarity, and competitive edge of a PC headset on the XBOX when playing popular XBOX 360 titles such as Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, HALO 3, Left 4 Dead, Grand Theft Auto IV, Rock Band, and Guitar Hero.

With an Ear Force XBOX 360 headset, you can focus on your game play and not become distracted by the noise around you. With the game sound pumped right into your ears, you can hear every nuance of the game in a way that is not possible when hearing it as background sound with speakers. In addition, because the XBOX LIVE chat is mixed in with the game signal, you can hear what everyone is saying right in the middle of your head, enabling you to communicate more effectively with other players. As a result, the Ear Force headset can actually make you a better player. By combining the best of both worlds, avid XBOX 360 gamers no longer have to make the no-win choice between using a headset and talking online.

Features Summary

	2.4GHz Wireless Digital RF Technology The Ear Force X31 transmits game audio to the headset with an uncompressed wireless digital radio frequency (RF) signal to deliver CD-quality sound that rivals professional-grade wired headphones. The RF wireless digital technology in the X31 uses advanced "frequency-hopping" that scans the airwaves for the best signal path to provide a reliable connection even when used around wireless LANs or other RF devices. Best of all, the wireless RF signal does not require "line of sight" to operate. That means you can stand anywhere near your XBOX 360 and hear a clear, noise-free signal.
	Chat Booster Dynamic Talkback Expander If you have ever had trouble hearing teammates on XBOX LIVE when the game sound heats up, then you know how frustrating it can be when you have to keep adjusting the chat volume. Chat Boost fixes this problem by automatically adjusting the XBOX LIVE chat level when the game gets louder, so chat from teammates isn't lost in the exciting parts of your game. During normal game volume levels, Chat Boost doesn't affect the chat level. As the game sound gets louder, Chat Boost turns up the chat volume automatically so you can still hear what everyone is saying. When the game volume quiets down, the chat level gradually returns to the normal volume setting. It's a simple solution to an annoying problem, and it all happens automatically so you don't have to adjust anything!
	Stereo Expander The X31 headset incorporates a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that spreads the stereo game signal to provide a "wider" sound field. This results in a richer, fuller sound than conventional stereo sounds, almost as if it originates from outside of the headphones. The Stereo Expander is most effective on sounds that spread across both ears, like rain, wind, and background music and can make the background sounds of a game become even more dramatic. The Stereo Expander is activated and deactivated by pushing the "Effects" button on the headset.
	Bass Boost The X31 headset DSP also lets you turn on a Bass Boost feature that produces deep, rich bass tones by increasing the volume of low frequency sounds just like turning up the volume on the sub-woofer on your home theater system. Bass Boost improves your gaming experience by kicking-up the sound level of explosions, gun shots and other deep-bass sound effects, making them even more dramatic. Bass Boost is activated and deactivated by pushing the "Effects" button on the headset and also works in conjuction with the Stereo Expander effect, so you can use them both together.
	Microphone Monitoring It's hard to hear yourself speak when a headset is covering your ears. Thatƒ?s why you tend to talk louder. The X31 corrects this annoyance with its microphone monitoring feature. Just like a telephone, the X31 add a portion of the microphone signal into the headset signal, so you can hear some of your voice along with incoming chat and game audio. Its just enough so you can easily sense what you're saying, but not so much that it's distracting. Microphone monitoring not only keeps you from talking too loud, it also eliminates that annoying "clogged ears" feeling when talking while the headset is covering your ears.
	Independent Chat/Game Volumes Conventional communicator headsets compromise your gaming experience by covering one ear for hearing chat audio and leaving the other ear for hearing game audio pumping from speakers. The X31 overcomes this problem by combining stereo game audio with online chat in a high fidelity stereo headset, so you will get a better gaming experience with privacy and clarity. Separate volume controls let you adjust the game and chat levels, so you can easily balance them and never have to worry about missing a cue from your teammates.
	Advanced Battery Booster Circuitry The headset has a battery booster circuit that squeezes every last bit of power from the batteries and assures high quality sound until they are completely dead. This allows a pair of AAA Alkaline batteries to last for as long as 25 straight hours of game play. You can also use rechargeable batteries in place of the Alkaline batteries. An automatic shut-off feature means you'll never have to worry about forgetting to shut off the headset to conserve battery power. When you're done playing, just put them down and they'll automatically shut off after a few minutes of silence. The indicator light will flash faster to let you know they're about to shut-down.
	Powered By USB The transmitter is powered by a single USB port on your XBOX, or from a nearby PC or laptop. So there is no need to fuss with a separate AC power adapter.
