Assuming you have already brought your headset for your Xbox 360 from a respectable retailer, or you are using the standard one you got with your new Xbox 360, you now need to use it. But how do you connect it? This is a little how-to for people who are new to the Xbox or people who aren't too sure on how to do it.

Steps

  1. There are many headsets official and unofficial which are usable with the Xbox 360. The one key thing to remember is that you have two types which are wireless and wired.
  2. If you have a wireless headset or earpiece you will need to charge it fully first. All wireless headsets come uncharged when brought new, much like a mobile phone.
  3. Now on to the connection of the headset. First make sure your Xbox 360 is on, you can see the display on the television and your controller is synced with the Xbox 360 as player one.
  4. For a wired headset plug the 2.5mm pin into the bottom of the controller listening for a small click. For older models of the official headset you will have the same method but will have a block to plug in rather than just the pin.
  5. For a wireless headset, once fully charged you will need to sync it. Press the sync button on the Xbox 360 at the front and simultaneously with the sync button on the wireless headset. The lights on the wireless headset will flash until the circled "one" is solid. This means it has successfully synced to the Xbox 360 and is used for player one.
  6. Most of the time new headsets won't be set to mute but if you cannot hear any sound make sure this is the case. As well as this make sure you test to volume as most of the time it will be set to zero.
  7. To test if you have connected it right press the home button on your controller to bring up the box. You will then see near the controller battery life either the same for the wireless headset or a sound icon for wired.

Tips

  • If any other settings are required check the voice settings in system settings.
  • Check the volume levels.

Warnings

  • Try not to rip the pin out or twist the cable around as it will lose the quality of sound over time as well as the connection.

Things You'll Need

  • An Xbox 360
  • An Xbox 360 Controller
  • An Xbox 360 Wired or Wireless Headset
