I pretty sure the only difference between the 360 and the One is that you need the chat adapter on the One. Everything else should work the same. I say this based on using the directions for the 360 to install my Recond3D and my PLYR1.

I've had the V-MODA BoomPro for about 2 months now and I've gotta say that the cable is pretty horrible. It tangles really easily, a few strands from the braiding have come loose near the top and the braiding has ripped apart maybe half an inch to the point where I can see a little bit of the plastic that covers the actual wiring. The product still works just like new but the cabling looks like crap. I don't think V-MODA will offer me a replacement either since they don't consider cosmetic damage a part of their "premier warranty".
I take care of all my electronics really well. I handle with care and always place the items in a safe place. I'm not sure if my cable is just defective or if others will eventually run into these issues. I'll contact V-MODA tomorrow and see how they handle my situation.
I've had the BoomPro since August and while I agree with you that it does tangle, my experience with the durability is quite different. I haven't had any of the braiding come loose or rip open. I wear collared shirts quite often and the cable does tend to rub against them. I also have a V-Moda audio cable on my M-80s at work. Neither the BoomPro nor the audio cable show any sign of unusual wear due to friction or normal use. It could be possible that you received a bad one from the batch.
I'm thinking I got a bad egg as well. I haven't seen anyone else complain about the braiding coming apart in any way. I hope V-MODA comes through and offers me a replacement. I'll find out tomorrow. Doesn't V-MODA advertise the cable to be tangle-free?
I've never seen them advertise that it doesn't tangle. The BoomPro does tangle a bit more easily than the audio cable I have. And from what I've read about their customer service, it seems V-Moda is a classy company, so they may take care of you in an exchange. I've asked them about pads before and they said that if they ever wear out I can send in my pair to get them replaced, even outside the warranty period.
Do you untangle the cable or leave it as is? It's pretty annoying since it's not so easy to untangle.
All right question on a setup. I just got an Xbox one and the audio confuses me so tell me if this works. Optical cable from Xbox to turtle beach DSS. USB power from Xbox to DSS. Sennheiser PC 360 (has two audio connectors one for mic and one for audio) audio connector to DSS and mic connection to the chat adaptor from turtle beach on controller? So this would assume control game volume on DSS and chat volume on chat adaptor?
