arkheios Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Hi So I've been using my Vengeance 2000 for quite some time now, I guess ½ a year now, and I've noticed that when I charge the headset and take my microphone down, hence activating it, I get a humming sound both in- and outbound. I've tested on several other machines, with the same result. I've updated to the latest drivers, where I uninstalled all previous driver software first, restarted, then installed the driver from here: http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=116981 - still have the same issue. I have been streaming a little lately, and you can clearly here the difference there too: Normal quality; not charging while talking: http://www.twitch.tv/arkhen92/b/388764372 Humming quality; charging while talking: http://www.twitch.tv/arkhen92/b/389974600 When talking to friends they also say it's an annoying sound. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreaz70 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Can you try, touching the pc case if the noise will change anyhow? I got the same, but it is almost gone, as far i put myself to the same groundlevel the headset is. Would just interest me.

andreaz70 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 My solution till now is, that i load the Headset from an USB Accupack when i need to talk with it, the same time. Loading it from there, i got not any noise, while talking. Regards, Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan20x Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=112943 That thread might help ya. I also posted my humming issue in there and was able to figure out what was wrong. Cell phone charger being plugged into the same outlet as my computer.

arkheios Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 The issue is still present. I have tried differnet outlets, difference houses, and made sure nothing else but my computer or a computer and the headset was on. I have tried via laptop only using battery too, with only the headset connected. Same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 10, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 10, 2013 If it happens at different locations, the humming may not be a grounding issue. Go ahead and submit a RMA and we can see if a replacement will solve the problem for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
