Hey astro, pretty happy with my a40's that i picked up last year. Though couple of changes/additions i'd like to see: Firstly, i've taken them to a couple of lans and they are taking it well, but one thing i noticed, setting up in pretty low lighting, plugging the headset and the xbox live chat lead into the mixamp was trial and error, just wave the plug around until you found the socket, maybe some led lighting around the sockets would help on that. And the other thing is the xbox live lead itself, glad to see that it came made for going in any pad or a pad that had a chatpad attached to it, but how about a different lead available for purchase that has the old style "puck" on it so the connection to the pad is alot more secure? (I personally find the standard one very easy to pull out and also it seems to like to sit sideways so to speak, which makes the cable get in the way) Other than that...perfect set up in my opinion! :D

The "Puck" as you call it, was designed for the old standard headphones, it was designed to push power and reduce static on the Headset. Because the MIxAMP does all of that, it is not needed.

The only thing I can suggest is that you find a way to straighten out the 2.5mm Xbox Live Cable like I did, It will stop it going its own way and stay in the controller easier.

Ah yeah i didn't mean like, the whole puck thing, i just meant more like an extra part of the plug, so it can make use of the two slots the puck can connect into just to increase stability, not a whole block.
