Tritton has made the AX Pro as universal as possible. After all, modern day consoles are also surround sound capable so it only makes sense that they let everyone have a slice of the pie. Of course, there is a price to pay for having that kind of flexibility - baggage.

Unlike traditional headsets, the AXP Pro is powered. That means you'll need to use one of the two AC adapters that are in the box just to hear whatever it is you hook the headsets up to. Fortunately, both AC adapters are the same size, so you don't have to worry about keeping them separate.

At the end of the AX Pro headsets 144 inch (365cm) cord there are two plugs. One is for the AC adapter and the other is a 9 pins DIN which carries the audio signals. The DIN will either get plugged into the digital decoder box or into analog adapter cable.

The analog cable has four plugs, one for the microphone and the rest for the surround sound. The color coding that Tritton used on the plugs closely matches the standards you'll see on most soundcards, but you'll want to double-check with your motherboards audio control panel to make sure you get the outputs assigned properly.
