Question about the Turtle Beack Ear Force x41 headsets...

Okay, so I need a few answers, I want to get these Turtle Beach Wireless Surround Sound Headphones:

and What I want to do is hook them up with my iMac. But I was wondering something first. There are quite a few reviews saying that these headphones cause some sort of interference with 2.4G. Well first of all, what does that mean? My router/modem is in my basement, my iMac and the rest of my setup is in my room (2 stories above the basement) will it still cause interference and make awkward noises?

Here is the link to that review I was talking about

You can't use X41's on Mac's.

The X41 will not cause interference with your 2.4, it's hardly even a possibility with the router and your transmitter being so far apart. You can indeed use the X41 with your mac, but for microphone functionality you will need:
