Multi-platform wired headset

The Recon 70 is a stereo gaming headset with a 3.5 mm plug that works on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. It is officially licensed by Microsoft for Xbox consoles. The lightweight frame and synthetic leather ear cushions are built for long sessions across several platforms.

3.5 mm analogue connection limits

The single 3.5 mm jack carries stereo audio and microphone signals together, so it relies on the host device for any surround processing. Spatial sound formats such as Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos, DTS Headphone:X and Sony 3D Audio for PS5 are supported only when the platform provides the required software or app, which may need a separate purchase or download.

Plug-and-play with flip-to-mute mic

Setup is as simple as inserting the 3.5 mm plug into a controller or device port; no driver installation is needed on any supported system. The high-sensitivity boom microphone flips up to mute instantly. The only common issue is that some PCs split audio and mic into separate jacks, which would require a Y-splitter cable not included in the box.

Questions about this item

Which version of the Recon 70 should I choose for my setup?

The Recon 70 in black uses a single 3.5 mm wired connection that works with PC, Switch, PS5 and Xbox Series X

What does the 40 mm driver size mean for in-game audio?

The 40 mm speakers deliver crisp highs and thundering lows while the over-ear synthetic leather cushions block outside noise for clearer positional cues.

How does the 3.5 mm interface limit or enable features on different devices?

The 3.5 mm jack plugs directly into controllers and mobile devices for stereo sound and flip-to-mute mic function; spatial audio such as Windows Sonic or Sony 3D Audio is handled by the host device, not the headset itself.
