Hyperx cloud 2s mic making weird noises.

[FlaccidSenpai]

Just recently I tested my microphone on the Cloud 2 on Audacity and I realized that when I'm not talking, I can hear a static/fluttering noise. I do not know why but when I bought the headphones the mic wasn't like this. Is there a fix to this or is my mic defective?

Probably just wear on the mic/connectors. Try cleaning the connectors with proper cleaning tools (usually rubbing alcohol, though some plastics don't like that, so be sure to only clean the connector itself)
