About the XP400

The Ear ForceXP400 is a premium, Dolby surround sound headset designed for Xbox 360® and PS3gaming. To get the most from your XP400, please take a few minutes to review this introduction.

Dolby® Surround Sound

The XP400 transmitter processes Dolby Digital surround sound from your Xbox 360 or PS3 and sends it to the headset via digital RF. The result is an immersive sound environment that makes you feel as if you’re right in the middle of the action. It also helps you react quicker by hearing exactly where the sound cues in the game are coming from.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi

The Ear Force XP400 headset provides wireless CD-quality game sound via dual-band digital RF (radio frequency) that communicates with the XP400 transmitter. This advanced dual-band Wi-Fi technology uses either 5GHz or 2.4GHz signals to transmit high fidelity digital audio and finds the optimum frequency to help eliminate interference with other wireless devices and Wi-Fi networks. Unlike the RF technology used in most other wireless headsets, the dual-band Wi-Fi technology found in the XP400 coexists with wireless networks for optimum performance.

DUAL BAND WIRELESS

Dual Pairing Bluetooth ®

The Bluetooth can also be paired to your mobile phone so you can use your XP400 to accept phone calls – all while totally immersed in the action of the game.*

Rechargeable Battery

The XP400 also features a rechargeable lithium polymer battery that provides up to 15 hours of continuous game play on a single charge. The battery can also be recharged while gaming with the included charging cable so you’ll never miss out on the action.
