You don't need to buy a very expensive gaming headset to get the maximum sound from the Xbox One audio experience. Especially if you've already bought a nice, expensive set of headphones, want to use your own on the Xbox One? Here's how to do it.

The Xbox One controller has a 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom, which allows you to simply plug your headphones into the controller.

If you're using a first-generation Xbox One controller, there's no headphone jack. Therefore, you need to invest in a stereo headphone adapter. It connects to the bottom of the controller, and the headset connects to the bottom of the adapter.
