Thu, 04 Oct 2018 07:40:14 -0700

The cable between my headset and computer is broken. Can this be replaced? Or must I buy a whole new headset?

De draden in de kabel tussen mijn headset en computer zijn geknakt. Kan deze draad (met aan\uit en volume schakelaars) vervangen worden?

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.

Turtle Beach - Stealth Pro: My microphone stopped working

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 15:31:23 -0700

The issue is the microphone stops working. Prior to it stopping, it would work at half-mast. It is a design flaw. Apparently, the wires that connect to the microphone come loose. It is caused by moving the microphone boom up and down. I can't find anything on how to break it down to access the wiring. Any help is greatly appreciated.

My headset has no sound coming out of either speaker, im going to attempt to change the 3.5mm jack.

I have a green wire, red wire, twisted green/red with gold copper and just a golden wire.

What do each of these wires do and which wire goes to which part on the new jack??

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen2 Max: Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Mic problems

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 11:39:00 -0700

Good Day community,

I was wondering if you had any tips on how to fix the Turtle Beach Stealth 600s. The mic flips forward fine, however it does not make the little beep signifying it is on. Even without the beep, flipping it forward will not activate the mic. I speak into it but no one can hear me. The headphones work fine in regards to hearing others though.

My brother ripped ou the microphone wires so I thought I would try to just replace them. In the middle of the process I tried to turn the headset on but with no luck there was no power. I tested the battery and its still good. When I try to charge it, no light shows. Any idea what is wrong? I have not resoldered the mic to the board yet.

Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 500P: Volume knob stuck at highest setting

My stepdad bought me the Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 500P headset two years ago and recently the volume control stopped working. Currently it's stuck at the highest setting. So, when I play some games that does not have their own volume control it's super loud to the point where I can't play it with my headset without causing my ears to explode. Anyone else have this issue and possibly a fix? Thank you!

Turtle Beach Ear Force XO Four: Help with splicing Turtle Beach wire

Tue, 05 Dec 2023 15:35:36 -0700

My turtle beach is broken at the jack so I decided to try and splice it with the jack from a working pair of headphones, but I'm completely confused. The turtle beach seems to have 4 wires (red, green, copper, and a red/green twist that had a copper outer layer that I untwisted) and the one I wanted to splice it to seems to have 5 wires (blue, green, red/copper twist, green/copper twist, and solid red with a copper outer layer) so I don't know where to go from here. I took some pictures to show what I mean. Help is much appreciated.

Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 500P: Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Headphones

Thu, 30 Mar 2023 18:01:26 -0700

I have two pairs of Turtle Beach Stealth 700 headphones. The left ear cup where it pivots on the headband is has become broke. The first pair lasted a little over a hear and a half. The second pair lasted a matter of about 4 months before it broke. I've been extra careful with the second set to help keep them from breaking but this didn't help. Can these be repaired? Or is this a warranty issue?
