How much for the mixamp?
to any who has bought the cheap DX clip-on mic: have you had any problems getting it to work on the 360? I bought a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter so I can plug it into my 360 controller. What happens in the mic turns on and off continuously and makes this noise (which I hear when I previewed a voice message) everytime it shows the mic symbol. This is most likely not a defective mic as I bought 2, and both do the same thing. any ideas?

Well... you want to measure out where the mixamp is going to be placed, and the toslink and usb should be a length greater than the distance between the mixamp and your xbox. For the chat cable I would recommend at least 3 meters to give enough slack for movement with the controller.@ruuku Thanks.
Do I need a certain length for each?
I have the same adapter as kellte, in addition to the one that is part of the Recon3D USB kit. I have no problem with using my lapel mics thought that. Most likely, you either have a fault in your adapter or your controller's port itself. Do you have any other mics to test out? I have a chat headset made for the Xbox, and there's a fault with it where if the 2.5mm plug isn't completely still and plugged in at just the right position, my mic input breaks up just like you are describing.
I think most likely you have a bad adapter.
Thanks, yeah I'm thinking it's either the adapter or a faulty controller. The controller is quite old, so I might try replacing it.
And to Kellte, I bought this:

It was mentioned in the reviews somewhere that it works with the 360 controller.
I'm not sure this has been posted before cause there's so much to read here
There's been a new version of the ad700, called the ad700x.it might solve the comfort issues the original had, at least the reviews say so.
I've been searching all over the web for reviews and only found some for the ad900x on this thread
