For some reason my headphones make this weird noise, the best i can describe it, it would be like when you almost plug your headphones into your port. I'm using the Razer Kraken, without the mic. Any ideas on fixing this, i wont be answering questions a while because i'm in school at the time.(Just offer any fixes that come to mind)

then it sounds like a hardware problem then. test them on another computer since a cell phone may not provide enough power to drive them fully
i would test them first in a different sound source like an ipod, cell phone or a different computer. if the problem persists then throw them out and buy a new headset. that's what i'd do.
 

I tired this on my phone and it had no problems there.

A few days ago Razer published a bug fix, which has fixed it for me. Thanks for your time and help though 😀
