I hear the tv better than the fucking headset when i have them on. I've followed multiple youtube videos to perfection, ive followed the instruction booklet to perfection. It's so fucking soft I can't hear shit and what I can hear is ONLY out of the left ear. But again.. its faint as fuck with the volume all the way up. My x3's ive been using were fine other than the head strap was broken so thats why i got a new one. I could have my tv volume at 10 and hear the game loud.. I have the volume at 20 and cant hear anything through my headset with the new ones.

HELP!


and fuck all that gay extra cord cuz I have the output on my tv. which they say u dont need extra cords if you have that.

Sounds like you got a defective piece of hardware.

I really would hope that is not the case..

It happens. If you're positive everything else is hooked up correctly, it might be that. But I dunno, maybe you're just doing something wrong when setting it up.

/e Sounds like a hardware issue though.

What it tells me. Connect all wires. Did that.
Hold the headset button for 6 seconds til makes 2 beeps
Then hold the pairing button on the transmitter until flashing and turns off. It never turns off. But I get the solid blue led which they claim means "connected".

I can hear "chatter" faintly if I watch a movie but zero sound effects (tried listening to forward unto dawn with them).

Your problem is you are trying to use wireless headphones. If you get them working hf with your 40ms of lag.

I've used x3s which were wireless for a long ass time and had no issues. Im not even good at video games so its not that serious. But what IS serious is I just spent 100 bucks on a headset that I can't configure.

sounds to me like a power issue, i remember being able to hear with my astros without the mixamp on but very faint.

a. power issue
b. hardware issue
c. voice coming through speakers/headset?

I just tried it on netflix also.. I got it to sound better but it was still SUPER quiet. Normally volume 10 on my TV is enough for me to hear all the noises in the game at a particularly decent level. I got it so i can hear gun shots and sprint breathing and reloading. But I couldnt hear any other noises. Usually when u scroll through stuff u hear the clicks and what not.. I heard nothing. I don't understand that.. It's either it works or it doesnt.. so how it is KINDA working? haha.. fuck my life. But I had it on volume 15 and I could hear the TV anyways even with the headset on so whats the point?
