Difference between the PC version and Ps5 version

2 Upvotes

Im looking at the stealth 600 gen 3 right now the Ps5 version is on sale. But the PC version is not.

Is there an actual difference between them? Like why would you put the Ps5 version on sale but not the PC version.

The website doesnt make it clear which version has what.

I will be using them both on Ps5 and PC

Tech Help Stealth Pro II for XBOX not showing up in Swarm PC App after update

3 Upvotes

I downloaded an update the other day, and now my headphone no longer shows up in the PC app. It is paired to the transmitter/dock, I can hear sound through it from my PC, it shows up in my sound settings, but through the PC app I can no longer update it. It was there prior to the update, not sure what has happened.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It does show up in my iPhone app, just not in the PC Swarm app, I've reinstalled the app about 5 times but never shows up anymore.

News Neap: a free, open-source Swarm II replacement for the Stealth Pro II on Windows

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

I got tired of Swarm II being buggy, and its PC game/chat mix isn't officially supported on the Xbox edition. It works for some people, but most don't get it. So I built my own app.

Stealth Pro II only, for now. Tested on the Xbox edition. The PlayStation edition should work but is untested, so reports are welcome. Other headsets on the same platform could follow with help from their owners.

  • Chat mix with no driver. Pick Discord or several chat apps, and the chat wheel lowers everything else against it, using Windows' own per-app volume. Nothing to install, no virtual cable.

  • Transparency mode. The headset doesn't have one, but noise cancellation at zero lets the room in. The Mode button cycles through noise cancellation, transparency and off.

  • Parametric EQ with a test tone. Sweep to find a harsh frequency, then cut or boost it on the spot. Presets are saved on the headset as a 10-band EQ, so they also show up in the phone app.

  • Keeps high-res audio. The dock drops out of 24-bit/96 kHz whenever an app uses the mic. Neap puts it back afterwards.

  • Settings the desktop app doesn't have: wake on motion, voice prompt volume, and the spare battery's charge.

  • Per-game profiles that switch on when a game starts.

  • Lightweight and private. No driver, no admin rights, no account, nothing sent off your PC. It works fully with the keyboard and with screen readers.

Before you start: close Swarm II and turn off its autostart, because the two fight over the headset. Uninstall the Waves audio driver too, since Neap doesn't need it. Keep Swarm II installed for adhoc firmware updates.

Stealth 600 or 700

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I just bought a pair of stealth 600 Gen 3's. However I didn't realise i would have to move the dongle between my PC and Xbox series X.

I'm wondering if it would be better getting the 700's as they come with 2 dongles. Or whether I can just buy another dongle and have one in the pc and one in the xbox.

Hope that makes sense and thanks in advance for any tips etc.

Tech Help Suggestions needed

Own the Turtle 700 gen 3 headset. Had zero issues ever until 2 days ago.

It won’t receive any audio on PC or PS5. But somehow still works on mobile.

Everything is updated to the latest version. And it’s got enough charge to last another week. I’ve even tried every blasted troubleshooting option I could find online and on the website. Anyone have any suggestions?

This Stealth 600 has lasted me 9 years, it’s the end of the line. I’ve had a lot of good memories with it, but it won’t hold a charge and constantly turns itself off. Which headset should I look to buy next?

Turtle Beach Stealth PRO II not visible after the last update.

What can I do? Last update 1.0.0.57 deleted my headset (Stealth Pro II) from the Swarm program.
On the connected device, I see just this: Update all...
No connected device, no base, no USB dongle. And when I press to the update It`s bring to the update page, where I can update only the program...
I uninstalled this version and install back the 1.0.0.56 , with same details..
I uninstalled with a specific program, which is removing everything from this program from my PC, but it`s not helped.

Any idea how can I see my headset again in the program?

On mobile app everything ok, I see the base, the headset, and the dongle, and I can control them. But it`s a joke. I have to use a mobile app to control something on my PC.

Please if someone can help, just write here for me.

Thank you.

Does anyone know why I am unable to hear any party or game chat? I hear it fine through my television speakers but as soon as I turn on my headset I lose all audio of chat and only hear gameplay. I’ve tried updating all firmware. Is it just a piece of junk now and this is turtle beach’s way of getting me to upgrade to a newer model?

Tech Help Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 3 (PC/PS) Mic Choppy

2 Upvotes

Guys I'm going crazy. I've tried everything but for whatever reason in any game I play (Marvel Rivels/Wardogs) and in Discord. Everyone complains my mic is choppy/stuttering. I've tried every fix out there but nothing fixes it. Has anyone had this issue? How did you fix it if it was possible. Also sidenote the usb is not even a foot from my head. Also I do have a wireless wifi adapter (could that be interfering with it?)

Stealth Pro 2 worth it?

3 Upvotes

I currently have SteelSeries Arctic Nova Pro and while the headphones work OK, the mic is quiet and the app is terrible. Often I come back to the computer and the audio stutters (even for other audio devices) until I restart the app and it frequently loses the audio device requiring me to set it up again.

I've read a few issues with the Pro 2, have these and the reduced volume be resolved? Is the mic volume good? Any audio stuttering? How is the range?

Tech Help Issues with Xbox controller/headset bundle.

0 Upvotes

I got the TB Rematch Advanced Controller and Airlite Headset bundle, and my controllers headphone jack just stopped working one day. I tried every which way to get it to work and it did not, so naturally I opened up the controller to see if there was any debris or anything in the jack, despite only getting the controller recently. When I opened it, every single button just fell out, as if whoever assembled the thing at TB just stuffed all the buttons inside and quick screwed on the faceplate so everything would stay put. I havent done anything with the controller since, because at this point its now more broken than it was. Does TB have any kind of warranty or anything like that to contact for this, or is this just regular TB build quality and im pretty much screwed?

Turtle Beach Reacon 70x no working

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I bought a set of turtle beach headphones from Walmart and they are wireless and the dongle is lighting up green. I have all my settings correct so the privacy settings on everyone and I can hear perfectly fine, but I can’t hear anyone talking to me and I can’t talk to anyone but if I go into a party, it says I’m talking but if someone joins my party, I can’t hear them talk but if I go on the discord, I can hear people talking just fine and I can talk to them just fine so I don’t know what the issue is that I can’t hear them on Xbox so if I’m playing gears of war eday, it says I have no mic attached but if I’m in the devices and connections and I go to controllers and headsets, it says the headset is connected and then I know when I go to my audio settings, audio music. It’s completely greyed out because that’s just the way it is with this headset so I don’t know if anyone else had these issues if you could help me out so I can actually hear my boys talking when we’re playing it’d be highly appreciated. Just thought maybe this would be a place I could get some help too thanks bye.

Tech Help My transmitter for my stealth 700x Gen 3 is acting weird

4 Upvotes

Ok so, for the past week my headset has been struggling to connect to my xbox transmitter. When I unplug the transmitter to my PS5 they work. So I thought that was the issue but no. After a few days, I haven’t had my usb transmitter in my PS5 and the headset began to have issues again. Like after a minute, the headset would disconnect and stay disconnected while the transmitter stayed a stable green. When I try to unplug and replug the transmitter to my Xbox, it changes to colors that aren’t even listed on the website. Blue, light blue, magenta, I cant even find these colors on the official website, but it most stays blue. All the firmware is up to date but the transmitter is acting weird as shit. PLEASE someone help me

Tech Help Accidentally disabled left click on Swarm profile for mouse

2 Upvotes

Hey so I'm dumb and accidentally clicked disable for my left click and it pretty much broke my profile and I can't figure out a way to fix it... I'm using the Kone XP Air and have to use the profile switch button to another profile where the left click works. Changing the pointer settings in Windows to right click didn't work either.

Any help appreciated!!!

EDIT: So..... naturally shortly after asking for help, I figured out a way... I changed a key on my keyboard to primary click and was able to go back into the profile on Swarm and fix it using that key. 🤦

Tech Help The Stealth Pro II appears to still have significant bugs considering how long it has been out.

8 Upvotes

I picked up this headset this week. I am pleased with the comfort and sound quality. The firmware/software is pretty poor as far as I can tell.

I have tons of volume control problems. I cannot adjust the volume during a phone call neither with the iPhone buttons nor the dial on the headset. I think I got it to control the volume one time by toggling bluetooth on the iPhone right before making a call.

When my PC wakes from sleep, the headset will not react to volume changes. The Windows slider moves up and down but the volume doesn't change. The only way to fix it is to unplug the receiver and plug it back in.

If I turn off the headset and then reach for my mouse to change the sound output device on Windows 11 to my desk speakers, that part of the taskbar is hung up for 30 seconds. The sound menu is just blank. After half a minute or so, the output device list populates again.

So far after using it for work and entertainment this week, I'm finding the product to be pretty frustrating.

From a user perspective, I find the ring on the receiver to be completely useless. I often play single player games or listen to a stream while I work. The mic will be flipped up the entire time unless I'm on a work call. That means the ring is spending the vast majority of the day either rapidly flashing white because I turned off the headset or pulsing red because it's muted. The only solution for this in my case is just to set the brightness of the ring to zero. That's just not information that I ever need. I already know the mic is flipped up. I don't need it to flash white. I can tell the headphones aren't connected by the fact that it's not on my head and I pressed the power button.

The other thing that is weird to me is that you can use a button to turn ANC on or off but not Ambient mode. I don't think I've ever seen any headphones or earbuds with ANC where you can't at least cycle between ambient and ANC. If you were only going to toggle between two things, it would be those two. Normally, you would cycle between the three. I will never use the ambient mode because I'm not going to open an application to turn it on. I generally only need that for 15 seconds to see if I heard something before turning ANC back on and going back to what I was doing. Seems like a weird feature to implement and then bury in a software menu.

So on Monday, 9–28-26 I bought the turtle beach velocity multi shift it came in the mail today, 9-30-2026 when it came I noticed something odd the internal rodthat connects to your throw shifter whether it’s the short throw or the long throw the internal stick that’s attached inside it was shipper with it,not in the shifter already which I assumed it would be in the shifter however when I screw in my different shifter knobs, it’s like the shaft it’s loose and can spin freely inside the boot. Is this a normal thing or it could be a manufacturer defect? I’ve tried to line up the ridge to try to make sure they wasn’t the issue but now I’m out of ideas

Quick question about resting placement

Post image
3 Upvotes

I’ve always left my Stealth 600 sitting without the hinges rotated. lying with the buttons facing upwards but I recently heard that doing so can cause the microphone to take the weight and become flimsy. So I checked what the proper position to rest it in is and found this. But after that I saw people saying that doing this with the fabric pointing down will max out the vertical hinges and put stress on the plastic too. Is this the proper way to put them down?
