Headset broke :(

I will be without a headset for a few days since the wires to the mic & voice shorted out. In my opinion I would advise people to stay away from Tritton since I have bought 2 headsets from them & both have broke within 2 months. Edit:The voice seems to be working now but I don't know for how long.

Thanks for the headsup

This is why I have two headsets.

my turtle beach is my main and my bluetooth is my back up

Funny that farhets tritton are broke too I just brought a cheap set of mad cats which a e'er e cheaper and haven't gone wrong

Astro A40's FTW

@cong MadCatz owns Tritton so I guess that's why, I usually hear bad things about MadCatz. I think I'm just gonna go wireless with headsets from now on, I'll be getting the Sony Pulse Premium Headset when it comes out in October, but for now I'm gonna borrow my cousins headset since he has 3, I just need to wait for him to get back.

yeah my tritton ax pros mic gave up but after having a chat with them, they agreed to replace everything, although im still waiting for the replacement, was supposed to arrive by this weekend

i got a pair of tritton's about 1.5 yrs old. the sound in my left earphone is intermittent. i am about ready to break it open hoping to fix a loose wire...

i love the sound quality, but it looks like a lot of ppl get some crappy shit from them...

@fjeena Do you have the 2011 model or the 2012 model because my AX720s mic went out first on the 2012 model, the 2011 model seemed better to me since the only problem i had was the right earcup shorting out.

@btail888 A temporary fix I used was twisting the inline controller until the cable on the headset end wrapped around the inline controller & taped the cable to the inline controller, I don't know if that would help you or not but it worked for me for 6 months until the right earcup completely gave out in February. I would go wireless in my opinion or buy Astros but I've never had any experience with Astros but I see some of our clanmates have Astro A40s so maybe they can help you if your headset quits working.

I think mine is the 2012 model.. It might not be entirly trittons fault, as i tend to take the mic off a lot and may have sat on it a couple of times.. But thats still no excuse hahaha

If you have the knob on the inline controller then it's the 2012 model I believe.

yeah mines the 2012 model

Update:Right earcup cutting in & out & my bluetooth quit working -_- My cousin will be coming back Friday so I will have a headset Friday or the weekend.

i think i'm going to open her up and try to resolder any loose wires. and probably try to improve the strain relief on the cable. i'll post an update when i get to it. right now got my audio going to my 2.1 speakers but still use my tritton for voice chat.
