  1. Press and hold the chevron for 1-3 seconds instead of a quick press. Glad you dig them! I have mine routed through optical out from my Xbox One. I use them every night, whether it's games or just watching the tube.

  2. I just got my KG-300 today from Amazon and also picked up 2 sets of AAA eneloops.  Always have fresh set when the ones in the headphones die.

    Let us know how you like 'em. I've been using mine with my Xbox One and having the ability to mute my home theater setup and just play audio through the headphones has been paramount.

  3. Two things happened between the fit on Mode M40 and Status - less clamp force and softer ear cushion with more compression.

    You will get a better seal and more consistent bass. IF they're still tight then put them around a pillow overnight. If that still doesn't work, return them within 30 days (buy from our site).

  4. Honestly, why not give the Klipsch Status a try? We do free 30 day returns, so it shouldn't be a hassle. I've compared them to a lot of stuff, including Grado and Sennheiser, but always end up back at Klipsch.

    They're passive, use a 40mm driver which I've always been a huge fan of, and are nicely balanced. Part of that is the consistent front volume we have in that design. Bass comes off VERY punchy but never muddy. The highs are great because of the seal, so we can get a lot out of a 40mm just with the right ear cushions.

  5. Thanks billybob.

    Regarding USB and optical, you only NEED USB. USB is enough for one audio channel. However, if you have optical, you can use two audio channels - one for game audio and one for a different app (e.g. ventrilo) for chat. Then you can mix the two channels right from the headset.

  6. Unfortunately a pair of in-ears is like a pair of socks. One day you take your foot out of your shoe and they have a hole in them. Please call us, the guys in support will be glad to help.

    I've had even the most expensive pairs fail. There's no magical method to building bullet proof strain reliefs or headphones that are impossible to plug with ear gunk. Of course we've significantly improved our standards over the years and our in-ears have one of the lowest defective rates in the industry, but I would be lying if I said I hadn't broken a set or two of X11i's.

  7. The only thing to keep me from buying the wireless headset is the lack of a built in Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. The Turtle Beach PX4 I currently own has a rechargeable battery and lasts 15 hours between charges. I would love the Klipsch gaming headset but the no built in battery is a deal killer for me.

    Our only concern when building a gaming headset with Li Pol batteries built in was what happens when they die on you at 2:00am and you're then obligated to turn on your 5.1 system. Having done that once or twice...my girlfriend was not pleased.
