    Do all your friends hear the echo or just one or two?
    Something similar happened to a friend of mine,and adjusting the sensitivity of the microphone helped. He has a set of turtle beaches as well.

    On PS4 its under: Settings=>Devices=>Audio Devices=>Microphone Level.

    Move the slider to the left a bit to reduce the sensitivity

    No idea where the setting is on Xbox 1. Worth a try anyway before you chuck em

    Happens on my x12's when the volume is too loud on the headset itself.

    That's on PC.

    So how do you tweak it?

    Well the X12s have a volume control as part of the headset so I normally just turn that down and turn the volume up on the PC.

    Sounds like a NAT issue, are your ports open on your router?

    PS4 and Xbox One require slightly different ports than the old machines open, have a look on PortForward.com and see can you find steps to sort it...

    It's issue with headset I can chat with standard headset. When in party chat Seems be issue with where I plug chat cable into headset. When i plugged in. I talk and lads can hear me but I can't hear them. When I plug cable out of headset I can hear them but sure then I can't talk to them

    I had something similar with a headset of mine that used to work, got a software update, stopped working for a few months - then another update seemed to re-enable it, maybe it could be a FW issue?.

    Maybe try give that a go if you haven't, can stick it on a USB if you have no internet access near the PS4...
