Overview

First of let's take quick overview of the headset so that we know where everything is.

The RXH-20 cable has two connectors, the 3.5mm audio jack and the USB-A connector. The 3.5mm jack handles all audio input and output for the headset and USB only powers the lights which are controlled by the switch on the in-line controller.  

 


PC

Desktop | Laptop | iMac

If you are gaming on PC depending on your set-up you may require the Y-Splitter (included in the box). Simply plug your 3.5mm jack into the splitter, this separates the audio in and out.

    1. 3.5mm Audio Out – This connector is known as a standard socket that you would find on any set of headphones. This 3.5mm plug connects to the headphone port (traditionally coloured green) on your PC.
    2. 3.5mm Mic Input – Virtually all gaming headsets have attached microphone sockets. This 3.5mm mic input jack is plugged into the mic port on a PC (traditionally coloured pink).
    3. You can plug the USB into any free port close to your headphone ports. 

 If your on a laptop or an iMac you may have a combined port and therefore no need for the Y-Splitter. Just plug your the 3.5mm jack into the headphone port and the USB in to a free port on your system. 

If you are using any version of Windows, you can left-click on the “Speaker” icon on the right. From there, you will see which device is being used for audio output. Make sure it correlates with the gaming headset you are using. If you are having issues, please refer to our section below in regards to configuring your sound settings.

Hey I bought your hornet RXH-20 headphones for my son just a couple months ago this is his 2nd pair since the first stopped working in august and he loves them but this pair has stopped working as well and was hoping we could get these repaired or swapped for him.

Thank you,
Daniel

J’ai beau brancher le casque sur ma manette, il ne se passe rien. Pas d’allumage de Led, pas de son dans le casque, rien…
