How to Wear your Xbox Communicator?
Setting up Xbox Live is a breeze, but putting on the Xbox Communicator isn't always as obvious to gamers. Before you get your kit home and accidentally find your microphone in your nose, use this pictorial guide to make sure you get it right on your first try.
http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/egbo4zigx5yzq4ukiocjbjx5mikdhxly4qn4tf3sq5osizi5crq7h6y6smyop6nlw5oesnj5vdrjs7bbm4dzcsgsr3e/ilm-eric-0002.jpg http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/ebo5ywbe6th677x3llhlqovtk76ndvi6hjfaazhky35f4sjvwnfzvkwcyo6jbsqyypuuizy33iigzbzxzd7bd5343bf/ilm-leslie-0001.jpg
WRONG: Usually the first inclination is to put the headband over the top of your head, like a standard headset. This is incorrect.

WRONG: This might seem obvious, but you also don't want the headband resting on your nose.http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/e4yhzwuexap7lxdeezmn5uwq6xrhadwofywieryj5ibjdq6urkzs54dctswpnwjeuupj2uchw4zgofvvvlp3p3sw2xf/ilm-eric-0005.jpghttp://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/e5djuj23kbft6sseyfxtmbggmbfhb3rhvp4oyyw7yoof2z2elud3giqbohcpuyo7wfoynqfwtmslinvsbfnybmviutg/ilm-leslie-0003.jpg
WRONG: While an interesting fashion statement, wrapping the Xbox Communicator around your neck is not only uncomfortable, you won't be able to hear anything if the earpiece isn't on your ear.http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/erqgl7hznviv37nwplisf5szkhzywcelfx7jmdxsocc3huagkm4sgtfu3irupak3san74v3ssuwjqx7ygtxgozdgzoa/ilm-eric-0004.jp http://www.xbox.com/NR/rdonlyres/e6osfqxqreh2orye2ipvd45xyw3nrp3a3al37hbo6ty7gcvdwcvtls5ub2qi4lmf4kdugwa2xgi6gbxybogqfmragic/ilm-leslie-0002.jpg
CORRECT: Finally, we have the correct configuration. The headband should wrap around the back of your head, with the earpieces hooked lightly over each ear. The Xbox logo on the side of the headset should be upright, reading "Xbox," not "xobX." Position the microphone so it's in line with your mouth, and you're set! Now you'll be ready to trash talk with the best of them on Xbox Live this fall or maybe even fill a vacant spot singing in one of those boy bands.


How stupid do they think we are?

You just gave me an idea for the next generation of the communicator!

It can be one of those hand machines that translates sign language... that way, when you flip off the screen, it won't be in vain. :D

I thought ya wore it like a chin strap...Hmmmmm! I keep turning this thing every which way but cant seem to figure out how to get the mic pointed forward and the set wraping around the back of my head. OH! The mic moves tooo! WOW!! I cant believe the technology now a days! Thanks for the info...LOL!

Actually our very own Casper was having this exact problem (It might have been DZNUTZ or maybe both). When he first got his headset he could not figure out how you were supposed to wear it. Apparently a ton of other people have had problems figuring out how to wear it. I will find out on Monday (hopefully) if it is really that difficult to figure out.

Honestly I couldn't figure out the correct way to wear it either. Even when I did it right, it still felt uncomfortable but I kept thinking that I had it on wrong. Guess I didn't.

Example 1 "All stupid ppl read" . . . so I open the thread and read?

Example 2 Men trying to unclapse bras off women, simple in theory!

Example 3 Maybe MS has been checking out the forums? :confused:

i think i'll actually go buy a highquality ear piece... what we got was a piece of reject crap. Its definately not something i would want to wear for long gaming periods... not even close.
