H1500 High Pitch Sound

[Turelus]

Updated/Edited my original thread rather than spamming the forums.

 

So I am sending back the gaming headset because after spending all afternoon trouble shooting issues, it seems there isn't really any support for it and I CBA having a headset which will only anger me.

 

I still want to believe in Corsair products and am looking at the Void now as it's the most recent product. There are still a lot of issues threads however so I wanted to see which once have been fixed via updates and which are outstanding.

 

• Has the low sound levels on the mic been addressed?
  
• Does it suffer any of the ame feedback/whine/high pitch sound issues as the H1500 series?

So I am having the same issue reported all over the forums. Any time the mic is in an active state (imput section of windows sound, TeamSpeak etc.) there is a high pitch whining sound coming from the headphones.

 

This also seems to be carrying down the mic into any audio I am sending.

 

Muting the mic via the in-line controls actually makes the sound louder.

 

Everything I have read here on the forums seems to show that Corsair don't see this as a real issue and thus haven't done anything on their end to fix it. I am really happy with the headset otherwise in comfort and sound, however as a gaming headset I want to wear while connected to TeamSpeak this is going to push my sanity.

 

Contemplating a return and full refund right now, probably buying another brand and moving away from corsair products in future.

 

Any information on a confirmed fix for this would be great.

-Low sound level on from the Microphone is usually either a low volume set in Windows or a faulty microphone itself.

 

Take a look at these threads as they may help you decide whether to purchase a VOID headset or not;
