Operate the headset on the console without loss of sound quality?

I had such a question, I looked at different headsets, but I found out that the sound on the controller deteriorates the sound quality. And there's my question whether there's an adapter for the Xbox Series x or consoles in general to connect it, because I would like to have a headset for different platforms.

Usually the sound is passed on to the screen / television.

You can then plug in your headset there.

In the Xbox / Playstation you only have to configure that the sound output is the HDMI cable.

That does not work because my deadset is most likely connected with jack 3.5 and my television does not have it

I haven't noticed this myself with my Xbox Series X yet.

Actually, you should have a significantly better audio quality compared to other manufacturers, such as Sony, because the in-house Xbox wireless network is used here instead of Bluetooth, which works with 2.4 or 5 Ghz, which means that you have a significantly higher bandwidth which means that the sound is not compressed as much.

It would then be recommendable for you to plug the headset directly into the console or the TV (if that is possible) or you buy a headset with Xbox wireless technology. For example those from Turtle Beach, Steelseries (which I can't recommend, however) or one directly from Microsoft, such as the new Xbox Wireless Headset.

Thank you first, and would like to know why you don't recommend the Steelseries. Because they have a great function that it also works on other platforms. And the audio quality is allegedly related to the reviewer from jack 3.5 to the controller, which then works with Bluetooth, which is supposed to be operated at a loss. And I was wondering why the Xbox can't be used with Bluetooth headphones, makes sense. Then I have a question which headset do you use?

No problem!

I do not recommend this because they have connection problems, the material is of very high quality, but very susceptible to scratches and the software on the PC looks like it was programmed by a sixth grader.

And with the audio quality allegedly refers from the reviewer of jack 3.5 to the controller, which then works with Bluetooth, which is supposed to be operated at a loss

Could you please send me this review? Because what he's saying is clearly wrong.

Xbox controllers can only be used on Xbox consoles with Xbox wireless technology! Bluetooth can't be used here because it works much worse and less reliable.

And I was wondering why the Xbox can't be used with Bluetooth headphones, makes sense.

I agree. But that generally doesn't work on any console platform.

Not with the Playstation 5, not both Xbox Series X and not with the Nintendo Switch.

Then I have a question which headset do you use?

Currently Samsung AKG cell phone headphones 😂, as I haven't had any desire to invest in audio lately.

But I would buy the Xbox Wireless Headset from Microsoft now when it is finally available again.

Well I got the Xbox Haedset, but then I think it was canceled at Media Markt. Because they did not have support and is still being ordered. Here the video, he just says that a loss is to be expected with the jack plugged into the controller, so he speaks of the cable as a clarification (from 6:30). Too bad steelseries was so appealing, well I just have to look, I have about 2 months left for a headset, thanks again

With handle?
Does the Xbox Wireless Headset even have a jack plug?

No, unfortunately it doesn't
