Pulse 3D headset

[Rob_Birtles]

Apologies if this is the dumbest question of the day but I read in one (and only one) review of the official Pulse 3D headset that 3D audio only works when using the headset via its Bluetooth dongle and not when plugged into the controller with the 3.5mm cable.

I haven't read this anywhere else and as far as I was aware pretty much all wired headsets support 3D audio anyway so it seems like a mistake in the review. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks.

Any headset will work through the 3.5mm jack in the controller and still support the 3D audio features. The official Pulse headset should support any available 3D audio options, but apparently it's only when using the 3.5mm plug.
