And here's what I came up with...

Basically ,it's a modified headset from a mobile phone......, just with no speaker. Oh ,and by the way ... there is no speaker so I have to use the "sound trough speakers" mode in the settings for the headset...


Here it is with the puffy grey cover over it...(from the 360's original headset)...

And here it is on the controller...

The next one I'm gonna do will have a mute switch...(which should be a very easy feature to add on)...

Wow that mod is fairly simple yet is a great add-on. I saw something similar to this yesterday on these forums but I like yours a little better. Out of curiousity have u used it a lot yet since modding it and how well do players say they can hear you? Keep up the cool mods.

Yeah this mod in combination with a wireless controller must be just awesome. I always hate wearing headsets because either the cord isn't long enough or it lays on your arm which is just annoying.

It's sound man!


To everyone that's doing the mod before I put up the tut ,...Here's a word of advice..:USE A BIG MICROPHONE! I've just made a second one (for the pics for the tut) ,and I used a smaller mic than in the original mini headset ,And the one with the bigger mic works better (but not by much). So if you get the opportunity to use a bigger mic ,then DO!

*EDIT*-- Sorry if I sound angry or scary in this post... biggrin.gif
