For those looking to match the EQ settings, lining up your settings with the graph in this video should get you there. Sorry for any confusion with the "levels" phrasing.

Played dirt 5 with this new head set and was a little disappointed with the sound, after watching this and using your settings it now sounds 1000 times better a like and thumbs up from me cheers

This is a nice video - exactly what i was looking for. A great all round set to set and forget. with the aim of boosting to the EQ Settings along with the Dolby Atmos. Thanks!

I have been waiting for this video all day. You kept us waiting. Thank you for the tips and tricks on EQ settings, as I am not good with this.

Buzzing off your content. Love you and Jez (Rand and the guys too) Keep it coming. Also my missus laughs at me when I say Dompier in my Irish accent, but pretending to be french. 😂 (I ham it up a little)

For me, the ability for the headset to remote-start the Xbox is the only thing I don't like about it, simply because you can't disable the feature. Because the headset has two radios, it can be used with an Xbox and a Bluetooth device (even simultaneously). It's a really great feature and a key reason I bought the headset, to use with both my Xbox and on Zoom calls since I'm working from home. So if you're like me, roughly half the time you pick up the headset, it's to use with something other than the Xbox. Yet every time I turn it on, it remote-starts the Xbox anyway. It's incredibly frustrating, because there's no way to disable it. Making it even worse is that the Xbox Accessories App lacks a "forget device" command, so you can't even un-pair the headset from the Xbox when the Xbox is not in use (the only way to un-pair it is to pair it to a different Xbox). This means that the only way to prevent the headset from remote-starting the Xbox is to fully unplug the Xbox from it's power source. Its a huge oversight, and one that I hope Microsoft addresses in a future update to the Xbox OS.

My man Miles with another great, informative video. After this I'm getting one now if I can find it.

Great video. Thank you. I’m torn between this headset and the SteelSeries 7X for the Series X. Which one would you go for? Apparently the Xbox headphones sound better, with deeper bass, but the microphone light is distracting and the microphone quality, as you say, is not great. As well as having the best possible audio quality, having a reliable, stable connection is key for me. 🙏🏻

Great review sir, no one seems to include/understand how to use Dolby Atmos. Well done

Great video Miles, thanks for the help with equalizer settings. Loving this headset so far.

Great video, Miles and WCG team! Very excited to get my hands (ears?) on one.

Just a tip. If you want to hear your EQ in real time just connect to your phone and play some music while you mess with the settings in the Xbox application app. If you turn everything up they get very loud 😂

Do you need to match the headset accessory settings EQ section with the dolby atmos app EQ?

Awesome video! Thanks for the settings I'll try that Friday when I'll get the headset!

just got mine in the mail i can't wait to use it!

I needed this vid. I hope its informative and helps me with the settings(said at beginning)

Solid showcase of the headset and helpful tips to improve the sound quality all in one great review. Good work my dude. 💪🏿

when i tried pairing it and did the update it doesnt show in accessories anymore and the headset light just stays on. i cant turn it off. i have a xbox series x

Always interesting how we all hear things differently. The one thing these do not need imo is any bass boost - I've left that off and still eq'd down the lower two bands. Without the eq feature these would have been returned instantly - now I'm really pleased with them.

Managed to order a set on Monday, but not going to arrive until 26th March 😪 Great vid Miles, definitely going to rewatch the vid when they arrive so i can use your recommended settings 👍

But how do you connect them to PC? I have Bluetooth and tried all three options and it doesn’t pop up. Shows up on my phone though

Does this equilizer section in xbox accessories work for all wireless headsets or just this xbox headset.

Miles is %100 one of the best voices in gaming. Almost reminds me of a "how its made" show type voice lol Dude is so chilled too, instead of hyping literally every word he says, like most gaming review channels.

Hey, i am using the Hyperx cloud Alpha with Astro mixamp (newest gen) in combination with the brainwavz leather right now. Got the mixamp for using discord with my phone (aux port) and game audio at the same time. What do you think about changing to this new headset ? Audio in comparison to my setup or just the hyperx cloud alpha? Playing mainly Warzone at the moment.

Do you have a fix for the moc quailty my freinds say its terrible

Great job on the chapters and educational video

March ur set up love it 😊 thank you 🙏

When I put dolby atmos on the headphones no sound comes out the headphones can some one help pls

Thank you for the video.

I'm trying DTS X with your eq settings, I feel a lot of difference than with windows sonic

I need help to set up the headset to hear footsteps better in apex legemds, so far my old turtle each 420x are better lower bass but clear and detailed sounds

Are these better than the Cloud Alpha in your opinion?

Some of games had Dolby features right? was wondering if you still need the app when the game itself has it. I don't know I'm sorry for the question.

U recommend dolby atmos or dts x with these headphones?

Great work Miles, thanks!

Thank you Sir for the informative review. I own LucidSound LS35X. Do you recommend getting this Xbox Wireless Headset or what I have suffice?

I have razer kraken pros and my mic cracks every time i move it and basically need it to touch my lips so it doesn’t echo like hell. Will definitely be needing to get these once they’re available again

Anyone knows how to adjust the EQ settings on windows 10?

Does the Dolby Atmos EQ override the Accessories app EQ? Or do they both work in tandem?

New webcam Miles or just a tighter zoom applied? The quality looks better. Good video dude, I appreciate the details shared about the mixing options. Looking forward to next Chaturday!

Thank you for your video!

I'm still trying to figure out what each HRZ mean like witch was games boost chat clarity like all I see is the bars and numbers lol

I have stutter when I play WARZONE and the Dolby is on When I turn it off work fine How i can fix this problem? Windows 10

Bro thank you so much for this! I had no idea about the Dolby app.

Love these, listen to music while I play games, atmos is impressive, music performance is impressive! Mic works great for me, my friends said I sound great?! But with that said, $99, best value ever! I've gone thru tins of audiophile and highebd gaming headsets, these hold up, for $99 they surpass!

Can I connect 2 Xbox headsets to a Xbox Series X at the same time?

I love how the headset can connect to my phone and console at the same time so when I get a phone call I can hear the game and call

Great review. On wind10 PC with Xbox Wireless Dongle the chatmix is did not working! i hope theyx fix is ASAP+! coz this is the first feature what i want to use it mostly.! Also a bass - goes negative is need it coz it has awesome powerfull bass sound... that i did not want it.

How is this working with warzone?

I recently bought the Starfield version of this headset for my PC. It's my first real headset and I like it. It does feel tight on my head though and my ears are a little big so they start to hurt after an hour or so. For some reason my mic became muted even though it was never shown muted. Then one day for unknown reasons it started working again. I enjoy plating Skyrim and No Man's Sky with the headset on. I also enjoy wearing t hem while watching some of mt favorite shows and movies.

mic dont work on discord :(

My microphone cuts out a lot, any help?

Thank you for the Dolby access tip. I get if for 6 months for free! So far it's way better!

I love the mic and all but why do I have to update it every 20 mins ??

Awesome vid. These are probably the best settings I've found. A lot of other EQ settings I've seen either kill the bass or just hollow out everything. Not pleasing to my ears. Got a question though. Have you messed with DTS: X and/or Windows Sonic? What are your opinions on those? I think DTS X sounds great, but I can't decide if it's better than Atmos. Also, my biggest issue with this headset is the latency. Super annoying, and happens regardless of audio format.

Can someone tell me why I’m getting 14 days trial instead of 6 months ? Thanks 🙏🏽

Can this be used on a Mac as well? I would need it for online school as well.

Do you recommend tweaking the equalizer and making adjustments in the dolby app? Or one or the other? Thanks Miles

Do you know if the ear pads are replaceable at all? I don't want pleather ear pads because they sweat and split and flake away over time. I've asked Microsoft "experts" and they don't have any info because the device is new. The specs say they're 40mm cups. Could they be swapped out for other 40mm ear pads on Amazon?

The automate does not work well. When I play Gears 5 I have my tv sound bar going and I have one ear cup monitoring going on so I can hear my buddy in the chat but use the sound bar to hear the game sounds instead of wearing the headset full on. Automute is turned to high & he says he can hear everything very loud through the headset. I am missing something? I thought MS said the microphone is supposed to auto-mute when you have it set up until you speak? If I don’t speak all of the sounds should be muted?

Great video Miles! So are you using your custom headset eq along with the Dolby Atmos eq settings?

I wish they put an audio for test on it's app (xwh) so we can adjust with an preview Thank you for show dolby atmos settup

Do anyone got this problem? With this headphones? I hear myself in the headset. I use the monitor speaker slider.... But nothing happens... I still hear myself trough the headphones..... Can anyone help me? I only hear myself when i am in partychat.... If anyone can help will i be gratefull....

That's the beauty of ears I wonder how many people don't listen anymore ???

You 're saying that you boosted the 4 kHz band by 3 levels and the 8 kHz band by 4 levels but that doesn't reflect from what you showed in the video. It seems that you increased them by 1 and 2 levels respectively. Am I missing something?

I have sound in wireless headphones and from sound bar at the same time. Is there any options in Xbox series X disable sound from sound bar?

Having a really really hard time setting this headset for warzone. Unfortunately I might have to return it because it’s so much worse than my rig 800’s

So should I just keep Dolby Atmos on all the time? Or change it for a game that doesn’t support it?

Very nice.I'd love to use headphone , but I have reduced earing in one ear. This limits my enjoyment. Wish you could boost (balance vol and eq} for separate ears

whats the difference between Windows Sonic and Dolby Atmos and does it matter which one you use?

Gotta say, the atmos settings do make a difference

Thanks, Sir

Question?.. So there is no way of getting 3D audio from this headset unless I pay Dolby Atmos?.. Like the pulse 3D from playstation? I would love to buy them, but need more info

Waking up Xbox is cool but it's not when you have it on living room with HDMI CEC enabled and just want use it on phone/PC in the night.

Live mine and has replaced my Steel Series 7X already. The Steel series sound the same but lack the features. Also they pretty much disconnect after every restart of the console. These just work and extra perk. You cna turn your console on with em

You can also turn your system on at the same time you turn your controller on.

Nice Thumbnail 👌🏽

Coming from ls 35x this headset blows it away to me on design. Seemingly the quality the design how it feels the look etc etc. But the difference in mic quality is CONSIDERABLE though, and it's such a bummer. Which seems to echo this great review. Again at $100 is the best all around headset, but unfortunately I can't ditch the ls35x because of it. (Which retail is $180 and that's a hard sell. I got mine half off years ago though). Hope that helps

What you mean by 7.1 system can't replicate the sound immersive experience? I don't know what surround system you're using but apparently not high end one. I could skip they silly comn. Lol

Hi there, in the video it looks like you increased the 4khz +1 and the 8khz +2 but you explained that you went up +3 on 4khz and +4 on 8khz. Can you please clarify this?

How do you turn the Bluetooth off on these? It constant connects to my phone now that I paired them

Hi Is 3d sound for all games?

6 months DA? I thought it was fully included.

Why can’t I activate Dolby Atmos? It’s saying I have to pay?

Really starting to think Miles is a vampire. Glad to know our night brothers use Xbox.

The 4 and 8 kHz settings don't match what you are saying in the video. The 4 looks like you just moved it up one instead of three and the 8 kHz looks like you moved it up 2 instead of 4. The other three levels match what you say to do. Can you verify what is going on please and thanks for the videl!

Honestly, this headset is great for like 80% of things on Windows. Playing Warzone, for example on PC - is a complete fiasco.. Connecting Via Bluetooth just doesn't work. It defaults the audio to the Xbox Wireless Hands Free AG Audio, so you get no sound at all unless you disable that in the sound manager; then sound works- but you can't use the microphone. Maybe that's a Warzone issue though - although I've read about similar issues while troubleshooting in other games. So- advice was to get the Xbox Adapter for Windows 10 and give that a go- Well, that works significantly better - can get connection in every game I try- but Atmos audio is choppy in about 30% of the games. Keep in mind, atmos, wireless, everything works perfectly on my Series X - so I don't think I got a bad headset here. Just needs some firmware/driver updates from Microsoft for the PC support IMO.

The video doesn't reflect the 4kHz and 8kHz settings you stated in the video. You stated 3 and 4 levels (respectively) but the video only shows 1 and 2 levels up. Just an observation.

Awesome

I like your Zero and Megaman pieces

I just got the headset and my problem while playing Warzone is that I hear WAY TOO MUCH bass

This headset has issues within Windows 10! If you Switch to Dolby Atmos in Games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider. The Sound get's getting Chopped of. And if you switch to 7.1 or 5.1 Sound then the Sound is back to normal. I Use the Xbox Dongle for Windows. I Think the Dongle is to Slow to deliver the Atmos Sound. Al Drivers + Firmware are to the Latest Updates. Had someone this issue too?

Great review but you didn’t mention the audio delay which is ruining the experience

These settings are way to Basie i suggest you turn off bass boost and drop it to 3 in EQ settings it's more nature sounding then.

🔥

I just wish the mic was better, party is kinda ass with it now :((

Turning the xbox on with the headset is bloody annoying. Every time I try using the headset with my phone the console turns on. Oh, and This headset is bass heavy. I’d steer clear of bass boost. Good overview, though.

Dolby atmos is a game changer. Nothing compares

You do know the Gen 2 Stealth 700 Is fully compatible with Dolby Atmos and 3D Spatial Audio.... Just saying

Does really annoy me when people compare this headset against steel series and astros to name a couple. They shouldnt be a comparison because of the massive price in difference. These should be compared to the Sony pulse 3d mainly.
