  • Quick Start Guide

Q: What's the second cable's purpose? The one that's split into a "Y" shape. Is it just an extension cable, serving the same purpose as the one with the volume control, but giving extra cable length?

A: Extra length but more importantly a plug for the mic and the headphones. Plug these into a sound card or just into the jacks in your device. From there you can separate the mic volume (or set to listen to) and headset volume in various ways.

Q: Are these compatible with pc and if so can I use them for discord to talk with my friends

A: Yes the Hyper-X headset with charging wire is great for both. I use mine every day on my PC. Mic works great. Talk to friends on discord all day with them. And when your wire is tangled to the point of breaking, you can buy a replacement wire inexpensive online instead of buying a whole new headset. Happy gaming!

Q: Does this headset connect through USB or standard headphone jack? The headphone port on the kids PC is broken AGAIN and I'd really like a good pair of wired headphones that work through USB

A: It connects via tri-pole 3.5mm headphone jack and includes a splitter to break it out into separate headphone and microphone signals. Your best bet might be to purchase a USB audio adapter, which I had to do anyway to eliminate microphone signal noise on my aging PC.

Q: I’m going to be using this with my blue yeti mic and I was wondering if the mic was detachable?

A: The mic does detach and looks good even without it, the remaining hole is small and unobtrusive.

Q: Are these noise canceling? That’s a make or brake for me.

A: I believe they are because when I’m yelling at my son while gaming he can’t hear me!

Q: If you are on a laptop do you need the splitter to use the microphone or can you just use the 3.5 jack

A: It depends on what type of jack your laptop has. If it has a single TRRS jack, you would use the 3.5mm jack by itself. If it has separate microphone and speaker jacks, you would use the splitter.

Q: Does it come with Carrying Case?

A: It's more like a faux satin bag with drawstrings than a carrying case.
