Product Description:
Enhance your Xbox Live experience with crystal clear voice communication and superior sound!
From Amazon.com:
A battle is no time for a communications malfunction, as losing contact with the rest of the squad can mean complete annihilation. Fortunately, Halo 2 gamers who play on Xbox Live can focus exclusively on strategy and forget about their equipment thanks to the GameCom Halo 2 Edition Xbox headset. Plantronics, the world leader in lightweight communications headsets, engineered the GameCom Halo 2 Edition headset specifically for Xbox gamers gearing up for the highly anticipated sequel to Halo, the bestselling game from Bungie Studios. With the headset's superior voice features, online gamers can take full advantage of Halo 2's stunning new multiplayer challenges and also gain a competitive edge in demolishing the opposition. Online multiplayer Halo 2 battles take on new intensity with technological and feature set advances, and the headset also lets clans more effectively strategize and trash talk. An optimized speaker, noise-canceling microphone, and contoured one-ear fit maximize the audio for gamers' complete immersion while also letting them stay aware of what's happening in their other reality--the living room. The GameCom Halo 2 Edition headset delivers a weightless, custom fit for hours of comfortable play so gamers can focus on performance.

Xbox Plantronics Gamecon Halo 2 Headset Communicator Review

I am a very picky person when it comes to any kind of tool that I will be using a lot and ofcourse when it comes to gaming in some Halo action, I don't want to have any problems with the headset. Now I have tried all of the headsets that are made for the xbox and xbox 360, except the wireless one, and I can tell you hands down that this one IS the best. I bought the under the ear kind wich sounds great but NOBODY can hear you so it was a waste of money. I have even bought most of the good cell phone headsets but the noise cancelling system just doesn't cut it. I finally bought this one and the original xbox headset, the one with bad reviews of breaking. Although the original xbox headset has a weak breaking point on it, I do give it a 9 when it comes to sound, not a 10 because sometimes there is just too much bass recognized. But the Halo 2 headset still only gets about an 8.5 for sound which is still incredible to me, I just know that they can make it a bit crisper. But as far as comfort for all day gaming, voice recognition sensitivity, bendable boom mic, and noise cancelling (especially against surround sounds and others talking) this Halo 2 headset is hands down the best headset you will buy as of right now. The only draw back I had being very picky is that I give it an 8.5, not a perfect 10 on sound and it didn't come with an inline mute and volume button. But I just bought the 360 controller adapter and it works perfect like that anyway. So trust a picky person, untill they come out with something WAY better, this is the only way to communicate on xbox live.

This head set is so much better than the standard 360 headsets. for one thing it puts the sounds straight into your ear, not on the outside of it & i think it's louder that the 360's. It's a must buy if you can't hear anyone on your 360 headsets!

This thing is comfortable for long periods of time and the sound is superb. I once upon a time had a Plantronics headset at the office that was virtually identical to this--same high quality. Since these are on sale relative to their original MSRP, they are a steal.
For 360 players, you will want to track down a "converter" for the 360 controller. It's about a $10 item and is made by a company called Datel (I believe). Basically, it's an exact copy of the plug (with volume and mute controls) at the end of the factory 360 headset. Instead of the permanently attached cable, there is a jack into which you can plug the Halo2 headset.

Expensive headset puts others to shame -

Xbox Plantronics Gamecon Halo 2 Headset Communicator Review

The Halo 2 Plantronics headset communicator is by far the best headset one can purchase for the XBox (and, with an adapter, for the 360 as well). While costly at a retail price of $50, it is worth every penny. I would highly recommend finding one at a cheaper price, which is easily accomplished online.
The product itself is sleek and well designed. I've used the 360 Plantronics headset which is mediocre at best. For any XBox Live user, this is the one to get. I have not used a better headset than this one. I can't say enough good things about it. It is rugged and sturdy, and while made of plastic, is tough enough to withstand rough and tumble treatment. The only caveat is the attachment earpieces which may eventually break off. Otherwise, an outstanding piece of equipment.
