Can anyone recommend a decent ps3 headset?
The sony official one looks ok, anyone have any experience?

I haven't really tried multiplayer on my ps3 yet, does it work well with the headset?
 
Last time I checked it was R438 from Take 2 & it did not take long for it to be delivered at all.

I got one & it wasn't working to well, I paired it wirelessly & not with the cable like the manual said. I fixed that & it works much better now & it is very clear. Definitely worth the money & the little stand it comes with looks great too.

thanks, what do you mean "with the cable" - do you have to connect the headset using a cable? Does the bluetooth not work too well?

Which model did you get?
 
You can pair any cellphone BT headset to it so if money is a problem then I'd suggest looking at a cheaper BT headset. I really like the Sony one as its got a little docking station which plugs into the PS3 and a big mute button which is useful when you need to shout to your wife for another beer :D

do you use the sony headset?
 
I have the PS3 headset as well as a normal plantronics headset. The PS3 one works brilliantly is very clear and integrates nicely with the PS3

It comes with a docking station & a cable that plugs into the USB port for charging.

When you 1st pair the headset, Sony advise that you plug the cable straight into the headset & then the PS3 & then it automatically pairs the 2. There after Bluetooth works very well. You only use the cable when charging & the battery life is a lot better than some of the other cheaper ones I have used.

The official PS3 Headset didn't know there was 2 models? I have the one that came in the endwar bundle.

Apparently any decent wireless Bluetooth set will work!
