Turtle Beach Elite Pro: Kunnen jullie de 3.5 mm jack reparen?

Thu, 31 May 2018 03:04:11 -0700

Het ijzere deel van de 3.5 mm jack is er af. En ik heb gelezen op internet dat je er een nieuwe 3.5 mm jack op kan zetten. Mijn vraag is als ik hem opstuur of jullie dat zouden kunnen doen? Ik heb zelf het gereedschap er niet voor.

Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum: Sound Problem because of On/Off Dial

Sun, 14 Sep 2025 18:56:07 -0700

Hello,

I have the following problem with the headset:

The sound is sometimes very inconsistent. Example on a music track, I hear the music consistent but distorted, but the singing partly not and when it does as if it were coming from a distance.

However, if I now wiggle the on/off lever, it fixes the problems as long as it is in a certain position.

Does anyone know the problem and how to fix this?

Can't consistently get the right amount a volume due to a problem with the volume wheel on the a50. Quarter of a revolution upward, and the volume goes to the max. 5-10 revolutions downward to get the volume lowered. What to do to get it working properly again? it's annoying.

Kingston HyperX Cloud II: Hyper x cloud 2 jack diagram problem

Mon, 18 Dec 2023 03:50:29 -0700

I have been using my HyperX Cloud 2 for several weeks now. However, a few days ago, the cable got stuck, bent and the tip of the 3.5mm TRRS headphone jack split in two.

I have ordered a replacement 3.5mm TRRS jack, but haven't yet figured out the correct connections to solder on the jack.

Could anyone offer help in finding these and possibly give some advice on the soldering?

Kind regards

CABLE COLOR

Mic color: Red and gold

Speaker color: GREEN, BLUE, RED AND GREEN

SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless: right speaker is broken should I attempt to repair or switch to wired

Sun, 17 May 2026 13:01:02 -0700

the point where the right speaker connects to the main headset is broken so no audio comes from it anymore, should I try to replace this headset with a more inexpensive and competent headset (cause cash is tight for me) or should I make an attempt to repair it, like I said only the right speaker is broken and before this happened I would usually play with only the left speaker directly on my ear so it’s mostly a nuisance.

Kingston HyperX Cloud II: Can I fix the Headphone 3.5mm that only works in Certain positions

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 09:22:49 -0700

My Hyper X Cloud 2 Gaming Headset has a 3.5mm plug that only works when the cable is bent in a certain direction implying that the connection has come loose and can only make a connection in a certain direction. It is plugged into the included 7.1 surrond remote but I have confirmed this happens in multiple ports i.e my phone, computer, other phones etc. This creates a situation where 1 ear is always working and the second is flakey. To solve this I have been bending the cable a using a clip to keep it in the sweet spot as best as I can for the longest amount of time (It never holds). The "ideal spot" does change and requires a lot of playing because I guess the cable shifts around not sure.

The Fix:

The jack is covered in plastic as well as some anti-bend plastic design like layered rings, you know. The cable is also braided which could run into some interesting problems. Does anyone think it would be possible to cut open the plastic and resolder the connection to stop this from happening or not? These are just my backup since my main are RMA right now (whoops). Bottom line I don't really care if I have to cover it up with electrical tape if it works. I really want to try to repair if possible I have a good amount of electronic tools and knowledge but I am worried what I find won't be as simple as a little loose solder connection of some sort.

Thanks in advance iFixit Community you guys are the best!

Kingston HyperX Cloud II: Right ear quit working

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 09:23:12 -0700

Out of nowhere the right here stopped working so i wiggled the wire a little it gave a little sound for a couple minutes. Then just stopped completely. I couldn't find my receipt so the warranty is out of thee question. So i decided id take the thing apart and try to fix it myself. I got inside and im not sure what to do now. There are no videos on how to do it so i need some help. The wires seem to be soldered in place but im not sure if they need to be connected to something else. Here is what the wires look like now: http://imgur.com/a/AVEv1
