Can I use headphones with my 360 or does it have to be a official 360 headset to work?

I have some exspensive headphones at home I use for PC gaming.. Wondering if I could use them some how with the 360 and buy a mic?

Doesnt the headphones have to plug in to the controller though to work?

:)
 
Sorry ignore that, are the ones you use for PC gaming just headphones or a headset? If you use a headset on your PC then an Astro Mixamp will allow you to use any headset that use just green+pink connections on the xbox. If it is just headphones the not sure on the best way to have mic functionality too.

He could do it same way, just plug a external mic with 3.5mm jack into the adapter
 
There is cheaper ways than the Astro, surely? As you can buy third party headsets.

But buy a mix amp anyway there awesome! :)
 
Yeah you'd need to buy a 3rd party headset that cones with some sort of adaptor.

I was assuming he's already got some good quality ones and didn't want o buy another headset
