Has your son or daughter asked for an XBOX headset for Christmas?  At first thought, gaming headphones may seem a little excessive for your tween\/tween’s gaming passion.<\/p>\n

You bought the Xbox One gaming console, you’ve purchased a number of games, and now an Xbox headset?  Will it ever end?  The short answer is no, it never ends, as the top games come out with a new version every year to keep their profit lines in the black.<\/p>\n

This year our family tested out using the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Xbox headset<\/a> – complete with a mic for online interactions.  We have never used a headset before and found this Xbox headset quite fun to use.<\/p>\n

We used the headset while playing several different games and found that we heard sounds coming from our favorite video games that we hadn’t noticed before.  In the winter game, STEEP, featured in this year’s Top 10 Tech Christmas Gift Ideas for Kids Guide<\/a>, we loved hearing the snow “crunch” beneath our feet as we walked across the mountain.  You could hear the wind howling and even branches twitching as you walked by them.  It’s really fascinating.<\/p>\n

The headset is very sensitive, picking up your voice easily so you don’t need to yell to be heard online.  <\/p>\n

  1. Your house will be noticeably quieter!  No more deep sounding bass and loud collisions, booms, and battles.<\/li>\n
  2. You can actually share the family room or surrounding rooms with your gamer and keep focused on the task at hand.  Which makes it easier to monitor your gamer too and the games the storylines of the games s\/he plays.<\/li>\n
  3. Some headsets like Turtle Beach, have special features like “Superhuman Hearing” that greatly enhances the game for your gamer, allowing him\/her to pick up small sound nuances for faster reflex to challenges.<\/li>\n
  4. Games become more immersive with surround sound right at their ears.<\/li>\n
  5. Xbox headsets include microphones built in to chat with online family and friends.<\/li>\n
  6. Many headphones can be used via Bluetooth for the PC as well, making them dual purposed.<\/li>\n
  7. Headsets can be used to watch movies, videos, and TV shows through the content available through Xbox One.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
