Razer Kraken 7.1 Left Speaker Broken

[DeadlyLaugh]

Hello, I was wondering if this is naturally with most other headsets.

I have had my headset for more over a year and now the left speaker doesn't work completely all of a sudden. The only temporary fix is to unplug and re-plug the audio jack.

Is this naturally for it to last this long? Or should it last longer?

Should I get a another headset w/ modmic or should I just return and get a new one?

Check your windows balance settings. This happened to me once with the Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma and it was the windows settings go to properties of the headset and go to balance.

Thank you for your response, but I tried and to no effect. It seems that the left side had no sound what-so-ever. The only way I found I could get sound back is if I unplug the 3.5mm jack from the jack-splitter and re-plug it.

Try using just the USB cable, or is that not an option. It could be the Jack Splitter causing the problem...

Not sure if this info will help, but I plugged the single 3.5 jack into my mobile device and still the left side has zero sound. I will try to get a USB cable from my friend to test it out though.

The Kraken 7.1 has a default cable of USB, right? My Kraken 7.1 Chroma does, so you shouldn't need to borrow one from a friend. I think you might be confused and have the Kraken Pro, since those use a 3.5mm audio jack. So either edit this thread or make a new one that is asking about the Kraken Pro, as the 7.1 is USB not 3.5mm.

Very sorry for the confusion. Thank you.
