Audio quality through controller is greatly diminished, definitely use another method if possible
Through the controller is all I've used this gen. Fine for me.
What kind of adapter would you need to hook up a standard 3.5mm headphone jack to the USB anyway?

DS4 jack outputs totally fine audio signal. I never had issues with it.
Haven't used Bluetooth with it before but I would guess it is betterEven Bluetooth is better?
The sound coming out of the controller isn't very good at all. I'm actually shocked at the responses of people saying they didn't notice it.

It's fine for most games and voice chat probably, but if you're listening to music then it's a pretty noticeable differenceExaggeration
Either is fine.
I guess this is why my 558s sound kinda low when plugged into the controller.
Optical is an option, if your TV supports Optical Out. Just done this and it works like a charm.I was wondering if there is a difference in audio quality/mic quality when comparing the below:
Headset plugged directly into PS4 controller (auxiliary)
vs
Headset plugged into the PS4 USB port
I have a PS4 slim so optical out isn't an option
thanks in advance!

Those shitty little mic sets my PS4 came with are surprisingly ok for being free.
Yeah, I don't know what people are talking about. Its using Bluetooth, I've been using 3.5mm headphones forever on PS4 and it works great. I know my audio and I can tell there's no diminishing degradation of audio quality, whether it's game or music. Some placebo effect going on here, fam.
I recommend everyone to use it. The only degradation you will get is if theres a lot of signal interference in your house (if you have loads of gadgets), and even that is a rare hiccup for a few intervals (Of course, this is issue with Bluetooth, and you will face it regardless).

Either is fine.
At least with the pulse, yes.Even Bluetooth is better?
Lies.
One is objectively better than the other.
Yeah, I thought so.You need to plug that into an AMP / DAC in order to power that thing properly.
Is this similar to onboard motherboard audio vs dedicated sound cards, where the supposedly inferior motherboard route is passable to a lot of people?Audio quality through controller is greatly diminished, definitely use another method if possible
