How to Hook Up a PX21 Headset to a PS3 With an HDMI Cable

Gaming headsets give you the ability to chat with other players under optimal conditions. Most gaming headsets employ full-size headphones to ensure that no in-game sound is missed. Their boom mics ensure that every word is captured and transmitted with minimum background noise. And if you use TurtleBeach's PX21, you can take advantage of the headset's HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) support and step it up to high definition audio.
