Should be able to connect to PCs with the Xbox Wireless Adapter, or if the PC has the Xbox Wireless tech built in. I was going to look into the LS40s as an upgrade, but these have jumped to the top of my list.

Article on Verge Also two new Turtle Beach headsets: Stealth 700 and the Stealth 600 Stealth 700 is interesting, connects via wireless to your console (like your controller) and bluetooth to other devices, so no need for an external hub or dongle, and looks like it might come in under €200

Turtle Beach have the Stealth 600, releasing at the start of September, while LucidSound have the LS15x and LS35X releasing at the start of December (although this is US only for the moment). Be interesting to see how these work out, I love my LS30s, so will have to check out the reviews of the LS35x to see if it's a worthy upgrade.

As in, I'll hear a beep, sound will drop for a second or so, followed by another beep. I love the sound from them, but they're coming up to a year old now so almost out of warranty, and I've already replaced them once. The first replacement was due to the headband basically snapping. I bought them in Argos, but they don't seem to stock them any more. But they currently have the Gen 2 Astro A50's for €150 or so, which would be a nice replacement/ upgrade.

I hope they have fixed that in the latest generation.
