Hey all,

So right now I'm searching for a good wireless headset that is compatible with both Xbox and my Mac. I do not have a price limit.
I'm thinking of these:
Razer Chimaera v5.1
Turtle Beach xp500
G930 Logitech Wireless Headset

Please tell me which of these would be the best. If you know of any other better gaming headsets that fit the criteria, please tell me.

I was leaning towards the Razer, but the reviews I read are a little disappointing. I have started to consider Trittion and Astros

Ummm, no. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I've had a pair of X41's since the day they came out, and still running like brand new. Brand doesn't depict quality. It's about each individual headset.

XP500 are absolutely mind blowingly good - I rate them miles above astro, and I love astro - have a pair of A40's that recently broke after 1 and a half years...

ONLY thing wrong with my X41's is that they use the same frequency as most routers, so if you don't have the headphones connected to the wireless transmitter whilst it's on, then no wireless internet in your house.
