Hi! First time i've really commented on any video or anything in a very long time. Just wanted to say I love your content!! This was so nice to watch! My headphones have the exact same issue and I look on fixing it this same way. Thank you for the inspiration!!!

I'm glad you enjoyed it, thanks.

Thank you for your helpful videos! They're a lifesaver, especially those on repairing branded headsets. As a gamer on a budget, I often find myself clueless on how to fix mine without causing permanent damage. Your content really comes in handy. Keep up the good work, and please continue uploading more videos like this!

Glad you like them!

without the shield wire, you will have noise on the mic. you can test it by turning on 'listen to this device' from windows audio properties to hear your mic audio yourself

Very good video! I have to do this my self but i never soldered on a board before. I got a wirebreak just where the cable enters the headphones so i can reuse the same cable. Thx for the help now its more clear for me.

Lots of good videos on KZread about soldering. It’s not at all hard. If you don’t have a soldering iron yet. One tip I would give is get a temperature controlled iron. It will make life more enjoyable.

Very cool video! I really enjoyed watching this!

Thanks Andrew

What did you use to check the accuracy of each wire on the new cord and how did you get the plastic off the smaller wires that you soldered on?

hey, great video man, it was really fun to watch, and my headsets have the same problem and i am willing to fix them soon, and i wanted to ask you some questions and tips ,because i don't want to ruin them. 1st- is the flux really necessary, and if so what brands would you recommend. 2nd- how can i check if i am putting the right cable in the right place (like the ground and power supply cables). 3rd- what are the things that you recommend to prevent causing issues to the motherboard and/or other device components.

The flux is not a must have, it just makes soldering easier. I use Amtech NC-559-V2-TF but any no clean flux will help a bit. But you will be unsoldering 5 wires and soldering 4 or 5 back so I wouldn’t worry about getting flux for that. Just use some good quality solder. Kester has been my favorite brand for a long time. This page: www.moddiy.com/pages/USB-2.0-USB-3.0-USB-3.1-USB-3.2-USB-4.0-Connectors-and-Pinouts.html has most of the usb connectors and has the wire colors for the 4 pin USB A/B cables. To make sure you would need an ohm meter to check and make sure the right color wire is connected to the correct pin on the connector. But if the cable has red, white, green and black wires. It is probably correct. I think the main thing is to not break the wires going to the speaker. They are pretty fine leads. Good luck.

Hey there! I’ve tried to deduce all the information I could without commenting as it’s a very clear and informative video, but there’s a question I need to ask. I’m planning on doing this on my discontinued razer kraken 7.1 V2. The internal construction of the headset you featured and mine are very similar, the USB cable and how it connects is actually identical. I noticed on mine and yours there’s 5 total wires and solder points, but you only connect 4 wires after the replacement. What is that fifth wire used for? The solid black thickest one?

The original cable had a braided shield wire. My replacement had a foil shield, so I really could not connect to it. It did work fine without it connected.

Hello Sir, Amazing Video Very informative My wires are a bit damaged on the usb end of it Is there a way to cut a piece of the wire there and re attach it to the usb end again?

@metalplasticelectronics354

I don't see way not. There are 4 wires and a shield wire. The wires are color coded so can just splice them back together, matching color to color.

Hi can you tell me witch usb cable you used. May be with link? Great repair content👍

I’m not sure of the exact cable I used. It was one I had laying around. I’m pretty sure it was a cheap one from Amazon but that is about it. I would think as long as it’s not a high power cable it would be small enough to work. Probably the cheaper the better.

Hey I wanted to ask if I can replace the wire with any 3.5mm wire cause my cat chewed through my wife and half of it is fine but the other half is destroyed and I thought of cutting another half of some random wire and fixing it with the working cable of the blackshark v2 can you let me know if this is possible

@metalplasticelectronics354

I would use a wire made for USB. Any USB data cable should work. The impedance for the cable needs to be close to 90 ohms not to have data errors.

nice video, what if i wanted to make the cable detachable?

Well, The right end of an USB extension cable would work. Still have a bit of wire hanging out of the headphones.

I tried to fix my Razer Kraken 2019 version but I have no idea how to open the inside. It has 2 screws, tried to pull the cap out like the rest of the version but idk if its attachable or not.

A lot of charge-only USB cables only have 2 wires. If the cable has the USB logo on it, it probably will have 4 wires. If you are ordering a cable just make sure it doesn't say charge-only, or something to that effect.

It should be a USB 2 cable, I guess a USB 3 cable should work. But I think there is like 10 wires so would have to get the right 4 to connect up.

The shield is pretty important because it protects against electro magnetic waves

The shield is still connected at the USB plug end, so it's still there.

would this work with the razer kitty ear headphones as well?

Can I use OTG cable USB to USB c for a USB headphone how to connect to my phone and listen music Razer kraken v3 x

@metalplasticelectronics354

Жыл бұрын

Probably so. If it’s a USB to USB-C cable it probably has a pull down resistor built in. I’m pretty sure the USB C port will not supply power unless there is a pull down resistor on one of the pins. As long as the one end has the 4 wires needed I would think it would work.

If you have a USB-A socket to a USB-C plug then I think any USB 2 or later cable, that is not a power only cable should work. I don’t know much about the USB OTG. I though the cables are the same it’s the device that makes it OTG. But I’m not positive about that. But I don’t see why the headphones couldn’t be used on a tablet with a USB-C connector with an adapter. But I haven’t tried it. Are you trying to replace the cable on the headphones or looking for an adapter?

This is a USB headset. It doesn’t have any analog connections. It has it’s own audio DAC built into the headset. And I would expect not as good of a DAC as what sound blaster is selling these days.
