    Headsets are way to quiet almost like there stuck working at half volume


    I have went threw 3 headsets so far the turtle beach stealth 600 and 700 gen 3s I also now have the new steel series artic nova pros and all three of those headsets are quiet I have cranked up the volume on all three and it’s like they all wont get loud at all almost like they are all stuck on the same volume don’t tell me about the chat mixer or the volume knob on the headset I know this I have tried everything absolutely everything from the Xbox side of things to the headset side of things it’s ridiculous to have 3 headsets and I have to listen to them at max volume with max eq just for them to be loud it’s like they are just barley loud enough but when I try them on other systems they are loud so what’s the deal this to me honestly seems like there is an issue with the Xbox series x because I had a a turtle beach stealth 600 gen 2 that connected directly to Xbox proprietary system it didn’t need blue tooth or a usb or base station to work and that one was decent I also had some cheap skull ear buds that plugged into my remote and those got loud I have tried everything single setting and update so I hope you have an actual fix or you can tell me if Xbox series x is some how broken or purposely putting a limit on the volume so that people go out and buy thier headsets that use thier connection software 350 dollar headset should be loud on Xbox not broken so how can I fix this issue where the volume won’t get loud even tho its all maxed out

    Xbox X headset no game volume

    Hello Benbo, sorry to hear you're having trouble with your headset.

    It sounds like your headset has a separate volume and chat mixer. One of the volumes that you've turned all the way up is the mixer and should be to at least the half way point in order to hear both the chat and game.

    I had this exact same problem for a bit with one of my headsets and that was the the problem

    Low party chat in speakers output

    So theres a guide here

    Xbox One Chat Headsets

    With details on the volume settings, I find them quite limited to be fair and have to balance my game sound with the chat volume...despite the settings in Devices and accessories mentioned in the guide.

    There is also the Headset troubleshooter guide linked from this same page if you scroll down a little. Have you tried another headset also?? some headsets are really quiet I find. I used to have the basic chat set, but found it quiet so upgraded to Turtle
    Beach, which has been alot better and louder for me. Am half deaf in one ear also which makes it more difficult for me.

    Mic volume too low to hear in party chats

    Well, if they are just as quiet on Windows 10, then it is most likely that your friends have your volume lowered on their Party Chats, because the only two thing in common in this case is the headset/microphone, and your friends on the Party chat.

    Why is spotify messing with the audio of my xbox

    The volume always works when i’m using my headset but when like if the volume isn’t working without it and i use my headset i can hear it through the headset but no the TV. I’ve still be playing gta for a bit now but the only thing that works is the game volume for some reason and all the other volume doesn’t work. Any other suggestions?

    Constant error with downloading update

    Just tried your suggestion and it seemed to be working until halfway through the download. I assume that since i wiped the cache it had to redownload the original update which worked fine considering the first half of the download was almost instant but
    still the second part will not download and the download bar has been stuck half way for the last 5 or so minutes.
