I agree with RossaF1. I have speakers on my display but I have an old Soundblaster Omega 3D headset that uses a 3.5 audio jack on the receiver base. Rather then plug it into my display or run it to the control I use the Turtle beach optical to 3.5 convert from the ps4 kit below. This would allow you to just hook up the Xbox One to any pair of 3.5 jack speakers.

Yeah, I would much prefer to buy the Silver Wired Headset, and use it's amp, as opposed to the $130 Astro Mixamp.
Also, I found a Digital-to-Analog Converter from Turtle Beach's Upgrade Kit (Amazon) and also an Ear Force processor/converter (Amazon)
Would these also work? They are a lot cheaper. If not I might just buy the Silver Wired Headset and use it's adapter.
(edited: for redundancies.)
I use this to split the audio and get no delay

I have a Turlte Beach Earforce P11 I use, tho for it to work on both you need an adapter. They make one called the DAC1 ( digital to analog converter ). I have big ears and I can use them for about an hour before I have to take a rest from them.
Though the link I provided for the P11 doesn't offer any new, the adapter is designed to work with various models of headsets. Not the best option maybe, but it will work for both consoles.
If you can't get USB working, is there a way you can get optical or coax output from your PC into the AD18? A lot of motherboards have one or both onboard.
If not, you could try something like this. It's a "PS4" sound device but appears to be a standard old USB device that will work on a PC as well.
You won't be taking a hit in fidelity or anything like that, either way you'll be getting pure digital 1's and 0's to the AD18.
(Sorry I can't troubleshoot the AD18 USB directly, I don't have one)
Did you buy this? http://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Beach-PlayStation-Upgrade-Headset-Compatibility/dp/B00JC5Y9LK
This is what I bought for my px22 to work properly with the ps4.
I got an adapter for my headphones from best buy. It's an optical+usb (for power) to 1/8"+use.
I don't see why you couldn't put a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter on it to get it to work.
Here's an Amazon link:

I reccomend getting this http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-Upgrade-Headset-Compatibility-TBS-0115-01-4/dp/B00JC5Y9LK
It upgrades the audio to digital and is your best bet if you don't want to buy a new headset.
Buy this one? https://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Beach-PlayStation-Upgrade-Headset-Compatibility/dp/B00JC5Y9LK/ref=pd_sim_63_4?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00JC5Y9LK&pd_rd_r=D9B6P2KPT48N1C7F68WK&pd_rd_w=FdVEj&pd_rd_wg=KbdpX&psc=1&refRID=D9B6P2KPT48N1C7F68WK This should work perfectly. You need an Optical Converter. Plus the Chat Cable Which is all included here. I don't see why it's shouldn't work here.
I am using the turtle beach ps4 upgrade kit as my DAC and passing the audio via male to male 3.5mm cable into the mic port on my PC. My PC just passes the audio through to the speakers. I've been using this setup for over a year and as far as I can tell there isn't any lag.
The DAC I am using: https://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Beach-PlayStation-Compatibility-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B00JC5Y9LK
How can I use this as a portable dac with an MP3 player?

I have one of these with the relevant cables, and I’m wondering if there’s any easy way to use this as a portable dac1 with a MP3 player as a portable setup
Any help massively appreciated
Hi again!
I am just home now and all is working well with OBS so thanks for that! I am still having that problem however with my Headset.
What I want:
-To have sound coming through my headset connected to my PS4 AND to record sound on OBS of my game at the same time.
What's happening:
I am hoping it is a software issue where it can be solved by changing a setting. However, I think it might have something to do with using a splitter of some sort like this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
