Xbox One modders make third-party Xbox 360 headset adapter
The folks over at Instructables – who also provide the above image – ran their magic all over the Xbox One to make it happen. All it requires it the official headset bundled with Microsoft’s console, the ability to solder and a few bits and bobs outlined through the link.
The whole process is detailed on their page, so check it out if you want to use your headsets with Xbox One. It was tested out using a paid of Astro A40s and is said to have worked just fine.
Meanwhile, Turtle Beach is offering free headset upgrades for those looking to use their Xbox 360 devices on Xbox One. You have until the end of January to sign up for a free, official adapter. It’ll be mailed to you in March, which is quite a bit away.

Caszech I like how turtle beach is handing out free adapters to existing customers. Its quite nice of them.
I wish Tritton would do the same for their customers.

Daki I find it really dumb, that even Turtle Beach is making customers purchase a new headset just to be converted to Xbox One.
We should just be able to use our current ones on the new Xbox, I recently purchased a $200+ Turtle Beach Headset and now I cant use it on the new xbox.
Your going to have to buy a adapter.

With all due respect, they are a buisness, and have to make money. They can't just ship out millions of adapters for free just to please their users.
