Headset Storage:
Always charge your headset before storing it for any extended period of time (greater than 3 months). Never store the unit in temperatures above 115°F/45°C.
If other players are unable to hear you in Xbox Live Chat or on your Xbox One console, please perform the following steps.
1. The Headset is Charged/Powered On
The headset must be powered on to be used. Make sure the headset is powered on before use by pressing and holding the Power button on the headset until the LED lights up. You will hear three ascending tones, and the LED will be green.
In addition, make sure the headset is charged. The headset will charge to full within a few hours, and has a battery life of over 40 hours when full. If the battery is low, you will hear a double-tone in the headset, followed by another tone every few minutes. When the headset’s batter is low, the headset’s LED will also blink Green/Red.
2. Mic is Unmuted/Mic Monitor is Working/Headset is Assigned
The Stealth 300 has an adjustable mic. To use the mic, gently push (‘flip’) the mic forwards. You will hear a tone (low high) when the mic itself is unmuted. When the mic is fully pushed forwards, the mic will “Lock” into position.

3. The Headset Works With Another Device
Plug the headset into a smartphone, and make sure that the mic is flipped down/unmuted. Then, make a test call. During that test call, make sure the smartphone itself is kept covered/in a pocket for the duration of the call, so that the phone’s internal microphones do not pick up the sound instead of the headset’s mic.
If you could be heard during that test call, continue to Step 4. If you could not be heard during that test call, please contact our Support Team.
4. Record a Test Message

For more information regarding charging this headset, please click here.
1. Is the Stealth 300 for Xbox One a surround sound headset?
The Stealth 300 for Xbox One is a stereo headset. There are features available on certain that can provide this headset with surround sound.
2. Does the Stealth 300 for Xbox One require any firmware updates? It is not being recognized by the Audio Hub!
There is no need to worry about updating your headset. The Stealth 300 for Xbox One is a wired headset and does not have any sort of updateable firmware. Due to that, it will not be recognized by any version (mobile or desktop) of the Audio Hub.
3. I can hear my own voice when I speak, or I can hear some background noises being played in my headset. Is that normal?
You may be referring to the headset’s Microphone Monitoring feature, which allows you to hear your voice when you speak.
It’s possible that the headset’s Mic Monitor control is turned up too high and is playing back noises from the room you’re in. This can result in you hearing echoes, hiss and/or static in your headset while you’re using it.
You can adjust the intensity of the Mic Monitoring feature on the Stealth 300 for Xbox One via the lower rotating dial on the headset itself.
If you continue to have the same inconvenience after adjusting your headset’s Microphone Monitoring volume level; please reach out to our support team for further assistance.
4. My headset’s lower dial is for Mic Monitoring, but why is it not lowering my outbound microphone volume level?
The Microphone Monitoring feature allows you to hear your own voice in the headset when you speak, in order to help you avoid inadvertently shouting at other players. The headset itself is not equipped with any sort of volume control for the outbound volume level of its microphone — therefore, the Mic Monitor volume control will adjust only how loud you hear your own voice through the headset when you speak into the mic, not how loud other people will hear your voice when you speak.
5. My Stealth 300 for Xbox One is plugged in and is not showing up as a separate device within my PC’s sound control panel. Am I doing something wrong?
The Stealth 300 for Xbox One is an analog headset and will not be recognized as a separate device by your PC. Your PC will only recognize the jack/port that your headset is connected to. Your PC may refer to those jacks/ports as a “High Definition Audio Device” or “Realtek Audio Device” depending on your PC’s audio drivers.
If you need assistance in getting your headset set up properly on your PC, please reach out to our support team for further assistance.
1. I can only hear audio out of one side of the headset. How can I clear that up?
First, ensure that your headset is fully charged and that the microphone is rotated to the unmute position.
Also, if possible, try testing the headset away from the device you’re using it with. If you are using it with your console’s controller, try using the headset with a device like a smartphone or tablet. If you do not have access to a smartphone, you can perform this test with a different device, as detailed here.
If the headset continues to have the same inconvenience when tested with another device, please reach out to our support team for further assistance.
2. The audio in my headset is distorted (pops, clicks, crackles, static, etc.). Is there anything I can do about that?
Please test your headset with a smartphone or mobile tablet, as suggested in the question above. If you do not have access to a smartphone, you can perform this test with a different device, as detailed here.
If the distortion continues when tested with another device, please reach out to our support team for further assistance.
3. No one can hear me when I try to chat. What should I do?
Testing your headset with another device, like a smartphone, would be the best course of action here. If you do not have access to a smartphone, you can perform this test with a different device, as detailed here.
If you’re experiencing this inconvenience in Fortnite specifically, please double check your Fortnite settings — we have a guide to do so available here. (Please note that while that article does mention Xbox, the settings within the game would be the same regardless of which console/platform the game is being played on.)
NOTE 1: These suggestions would be applicable to all versions of Fortnite (Xbox/PlayStation/Nintendo Switch/PC)
If you’re experiencing this inconvenience specifically in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare or Call of Duty: Warzone, please check your in-game settings and ensure they match up with what we have suggested in the applicable article below:
Xbox/PC Recommended Call of Duty Settings
PlayStation Recommended Call of Duty Settings
NOTE 2: For Call of Duty: Modern Warfare or Call of Duty: Warzone, the “Open Mic Recording Threshold” setting should be set as low as possible. Setting that too high can cause your voice to cut out completely.

Important: Update Before Using
Make sure to update to the newest firmware for the best audio experience. Connect to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub for Windows or Mac to update firmware, and for iOS and Android to customize your sound further.
SURROUND SOUND SETUP
Xbox/PC mode can be selected using the Audio Hub for Android/iOS.
For those who game with glasses, adjust the ProSpecs™ Glasses Friendly System for added comfort.
1. The ProSpecs Glasses Relief System creates a channel in the ear cushion to help reduce pressure on your glasses frame. In order to adjust this, you must firmly remove the magnetic ear cushion. Hold the ear cushion firmly and pull it away from the speaker. The ear cushion is held there magnetically and should come off with minimal effort.
2. Depending on the size of your glasses frame, use the tab adjustment to create the appropriate sized channel in the ear cushion. By default, the adjustment tab is set to the shallowest setting. To increase the size/depth of the channel in the ear cushion, simply pull the tab and attach it to the post based on your preference.
3. After you’ve adjusted the glasses-friendly channel to your liking, place the ear cushion back on the speaker. The ear cushion is held there magnetically and should snap back into place with minimal effort. Please make sure to line up the magnets on the ear cushion with the magnets on the headset itself, as shown.

If your headset is experiencing any of the following symptoms, please review the instructions below:
If you are experience any of the above, it’s possible the headset is not set up correctly. If you are having the above issues, please confirm the following to ensure that the headset is set up properly.
Make sure the headset is set up as shown below.
NOTES:
Symptoms:
To avoid echoing in the party chat, please do the following.
1. Headset/Mic Are Connected Securely
Make sure to set the headset up as shown below:
SUPERAMP CONNECTIONS:
The headset’s main cable ends are not interchangeable. The plug with three black stripes should be plugged into the audio jack on the front of the SuperAmp.
This jack will have an icon of a headset above it. If the headset’s cable is plugged into the jack with the word “Out” above it (located on the back of the SuperAmp), the headset is plugged into the wrong jack. The jack with the word “Out” above it is the Stream Out jack.
The headset would need to be plugged into the “Headset” jack in order to hear the game and chat audio.
HEADSET CONNECTIONS
The headset’s main cable ends are not interchangeable. The plug with four black stripes should be plugged into the headset jack on the headset itself. Like the SuperAmp, this jack will have an icon of a headset just above it.
Make sure to fully insert the cable into the jack on the headset. It is a snug fit, and you should feel the plug slide into place twice. The cable is not fully inserted/plugged in until the plug slides into place the second time. An easy way to check if your headset cable is plugged in all the way is to make sure that the headset and mic icons (located on the headset and mic boom, respectively) are lined up with each other.
2. Lower The Volume, Adjust Game/Chat Balance
If the volume is set too high, there may be some echoing in the game chat. Lowering the volume can help to avoid echoing. To lower the volume, move the dial on the SuperAmp itself counter-clockwise.
In addition, make sure the Game/Chat balance is set more in favor of the game. In the Turtle Beach Audio Hub, adjust the Game/Chat balance slider until there is no echo. An image of the slider in question is shown below:
If you are still having issues with echoing in the Party chat, please contact our support team.

Are there controls on the cable?
The Elite Pro 2 cable includes a Mic Mute switch. Volume and all other features are either controlled on the Elite SuperAmp 2 or the Audio Hub for iOS/Android
Is the mic removable?
Yes, the microphone is removable.
Is the Elite Pro 2 + Elite SuperAmp for Xbox One surround sound?
Yes, the Elite Pro 2 + Elite SuperAmp for Xbox One supports the Xbox One console’s available Surround/Spatial Sound formats: Windows Sonic for Headphones & Dolby Atmos for Headphones.
More information on these audio formats may be found here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/console/windows-sonic-and-dolby-atmos-headset-options-and-help-on-xbox-one
Can I use the Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp with Bluetooth?
Yes, the Elite SuperAmp has built-in Bluetooth. Simply pair the SuperAmp to your desired Bluetooth-compatible device, plug the headset into the SuperAmp, and you can listen to music and take calls while you’re gaming. You can also control and configure your Audio using the Turtle Beach Audio Hub mobile app.
Will I be able to use this wirelessly with Xbox One?
While specifically designed to be use with a wired connection to the console via the included Elite SuperAmp, the headset itself (without the Elite SuperAmp) can also be used with devices featuring a 3.5mm headset jack, including wireless Xbox One controllers.
How are the black and white Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmps different?
The Black Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp is designed for PlayStation 4. The White Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp is designed for Xbox One. The Headset themselves are functionally the same but the Elite SuperAmps were specifically designed for their respective consoles, and as such use different methods for USB Connections and Audio Processing. As a result it is important that you buy the correct one for your console, as the Elite SuperAmps themselves are not compatible for the alternate console.
Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp for PS4
Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp for Xbox One
Does the Elite Pro 2 + Elite SuperAmp for Xbox One work with the PlayStation 4?
The Elite Pro 2 + Elite SuperAmp for Xbox One is designed specifically for the Xbox One. However, the Elite Pro 2 Headset (without the Elite SuperAmp) uses a standard 3.5mm headset connector. This means that just the headset can be connected to many devices like phones, tablets or PS4 Controllers. When used this way you will not be able to take advantage of all the features of the Elite SuperAmp.
Is the Elite Pro 2 + SuperAmp for Xbox One compatible with PC/Mac?
Yes, the Elite SuperAmp has two different modes. One is meant for use on Xbox One and the other PC/Mac. Both the Xbox One mode and the PC/Mac mode use the USB Path for Game, Chat, and Mic Audio. Please note that Windows 10 in particular is required for Windows Sonic Surround Sound.

HEADSET
PLEASE NOTE: As of 11/25/2020, we are aware of an issue with the Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS mic, as follows: If the headset is powered on with the mic in the muted position (flipped up), the mic will not unmute.
We have released a firmware update to resolve this. Please use the Turtle Beach Audio Hub to perform that firmware update for your headset.
The Stealth 700 for Gen 2 PS has an adjustable mic. To use the mic, gently push (‘flip’) the mic forwards. You will hear a tone (low high) when the mic itself is unmuted. When the mic is fully pushed forwards, the mic will lock into position. To mute the mic, just flip the mic back the other way. You will hear a tone (high low) when the mic is muted.
” alt=”Mic_Mute.PNG” width=”500″ height=”214″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLGf&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smcG%2FklBhBZCJJ78cn12ZcVFacUZ5hAywaEGfK_g2rRCA_iQ&asPdf=false” />
1. Check that the Headset And Transmitter Are Paired
The Headset and Transmitter need to be paired to each other in order for the mic to work. Make sure that the Headset and Transmitter have been successfully paired.
To check if the headset and transmitter are paired, take a look at the LED on the headset and transmitter. If those LEDS are solid blue, the headset and transmitter are paired. If the LED on either is not solid, the headset may not be paired to the transmitter. Please review the following to determine whether the headset and transmitter are paired:
TRANSMITTER LED | MEANING |
Solid Blue | Headset and Mini Transmitter Paired |
Double-Blink Blue | Not Paired |
Breathing Red | Mic Muted |
HEADSET LED | MEANING |
Solid Blue | Headset and Mini Transmitter Paired |
Breathing Blue | (While Charging) Battery Full |
Double-Blink Blue | Not Paired |
Solid Red | (While Charging) Battery Charging LED Turns Off When Battery Is Fully Charged (If Headset Is Off) |
Breathing Red | Battery Low |
If those LEDs are double-blinking blue, please perform the following process to re-pair your headset and transmitter.
**PLEASE NOTE: The headset’s Mic Monitoring will still continue to function even if the headset and console are not paired. You may be able to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic, but if the headset itself is not paired to the console, other people would not be able to hear you until the headset and console were paired again.**
If the LEDs on both headset and transmitter are solid, but you still cannot be heard in chat, please continue to step 2.
2. The Settings are Configured
If the headset and transmitter LEDs are both solid, but you cannot be heard in chat, the settings on your console or in the game itself may not be configured for headset use.
If the microphone still isn’t working even with those settings configured correctly, please continue to Step 3.
3. Bluetooth Test Call
*For this test, you will need a Bluetooth-compatible smartphone.
If you can be heard clearly during that test call, the mic itself is working well.
If you cannot be heard clearly during that test call, please contact our Support Team.
4. Power Cycle Headset.
To pair the headset:
If the Power Cycle does not resolve this issue, please contact our Support Team.
Symptom:
If you are experiencing audible background noise while in the console menu (either the PS4 menu or the PS5 menu), please perform a firmware update, as detailed below:
Once the headset’s firmware update has been performed, you should be able to use the headset without issue.
If your Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset is showing all of the following symptoms, it may need to be recovered:
To recover the headset, please do the following:
1. Download the Stealth 700 Gen 2 PlayStation recovery tool, available here.
2. Use the headset’s included USB-C cable to plug your headset into your computer. Do not connect your Turtle Beach USB transmitter to the computer for this process. If at all possible, use a different (compatible) USB cable for this process — if there is an issue with the cable itself, that can affect the results of this process.
3. Double-click the tool you downloaded to run it: “Stealth700_PlayStation_Gen2_Recovery-v2.0.6.EXE”.
4. A new window will appear, asking you to make sure your headset is connected via USB, and asking “Ready to start?” Click “Yes“. If Windows Defender asks for permission, click the “Allow Access” button to proceed. This process will take 5 minutes and will open different windows. Do not interact with any other pop-ups that appear while the recovery process is underway, and do not unplug your headset during this process.
5. Once the tool displays, “Programming Complete. Please unplug and restart your headset,” the process is complete! Unplug your headset and click “OK“.
6. Then, reconnect the headset and transmitter to the computer, and open the Turtle Beach Audio Hub. If you have not yet downloaded/installed the Turtle Beach Audio Hub, you can do so here.
The Audio Hub will detect that the headset and transmitter have been connected, and will prompt you to update the headset’s firmware. Perform that firmware update; please note that this may take a few minutes. Do not touch or move the headset or computer until that process is complete.
7. Now, once the headset’s firmware has been fully updated, you will need to pair your headset to its USB transmitter. To do so:
8. When you power on your headset after running this tool, the headset will also announce “Pairing Bluetooth” and automatically begin Bluetooth Pairing mode (headset blinking white). It will be necessary to re-pair any Bluetooth connections you had made before running the tool.
For the best experience, we recommend always running the most up-to-date firmware on your headset.
MODEL | FIRMWARE VERSION | DATE | NOTES |
Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS | v 2.0.6 | 5/25/2021 | • Fixes general console audio bug |
Connect to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub for Windows or Mac to update the firmware.
To update your headset’s firmware, please do the following:
1. First, download the Turtle Beach Audio Hub; this is available for both Windows and Mac.
2. Once the Audio Hub has been downloaded/installed, open the program.
3. Plug the mini transmitter and the headset itself into two free USB ports on the computer. The Audio Hub program will automatically detect that the headset/mini transmitter have been connected, and will search for any available updates. If there is an available update, you will be prompted to perform that update.
In addition to updating the headset’s firmware,
you can also adjust the volume of the Tones that play when some features are engaged, such as when the mic is muted, or when the EQ preset is changed. You can do this by adjusting the Tones volume slider in the main screen of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub, when the headset/transmitter are connected to the computer.
You may need to hard-reset your Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset as a part of the troubleshooting process.
To do so, please do the following:
” alt=”Hard-Reset.png” width=”317″ height=”117″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWKBl&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smTT%2FfTmhM0v8ic4aYCGaAHYrW_ON1.E9HCb28O.QiO_Jfd0&asPdf=false” />
**If the LED remains red, please try this process again. This “long press” should force the headset to power off regardless of the state it is in.**
2. After the headset powers off completely, power the headset back on.
3. Re-pair the headset.
To re-pair the headset, please do the following:
Connect the Mini Transmitter into a free USB port on your console. The LED will double-blink blue as it searches for the headset.
Press and hold the Power button on the headset to power it on. The LED will double-blink blue as it searches for the transmitter.
Within 10 seconds, the LEDs on the transmitter and headset will turn solid, indicating a successful pairing.
Please follow the instructions below to get your Stealth 700 for PS4/PS4 Pro headset set up for use with a Nintendo Switch console.
Once you see those icons, you should be able to hear the game/chat audio. You may still need to configure the settings for the specific game you’re using the headset with.
Please Note: These settings will vary from game to game. In addition, there are a limited number of games that support in-chat capability.
You can find the instructions for configuring the settings for Fortnite below:
1. Make sure you are logged in to your profile. Once you are logged in, press the + button on the switch to bring up the Social menu. Scroll down to and then select the gear icon on the bottom of the left sidebar.

3. You will see several tabs on the top of the screen. Scroll to the Speaker tab – this is the Audio Settings tab. You can configure the Volume sliders to your liking. Then, scroll down to section labelled “Voice Chat”.
There will be two toggle settings: Voice Chat and Voice Chat Method.
” alt=”Voice_Chat_Settings_4.png” width=”1920″ height=”1080″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLnk&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smuy%2FkHCcZWu8ssl1c_Ley9tKkSahDSdqUBjkQdEFiJDRKQc&asPdf=false” />
Make sure that the Voice Chat is On and the Voice Chat Method is set to Open Mic. You should be able to hear and be heard in the chat.
While the Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset was designed for use with PlayStation consoles, this headset can also be used with a PC.
To set up your Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset for use with a PC, please do the following.
1. Plug the transmitter into a free USB port on the computer. The headset and transmitter should already be paired — and the LED on the transmitter should be solid. If the LED on the transmitter is double-blinking, please perform the pairing process.
2. Right-click the speaker icon on the bottom-right of the Taskbar, and select “Open Sound Settings”. In the sound settings window, set Speakers (Turtle Beach Stealth 700 G2) as the default Output device. Then, set Microphone (Turtle Beach Stealth 700 G2) as the default Input device.
Please Note: Some games and programs do have audio settings that are independent from the computer settings. You may need to adjust the audio settings for both those games/programs and the computer itself. If you are having issues with the audio, please first double-check the audio settings for both the computer itself and the game/program the headset is being used with.
If those issues persist, even when the settings for both the game/program and computer are configured correctly, please contact our support team.
This article details the best way to set your Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset up for use with a PS4 or PS5 console.
PS4 SETUP
If you have a PS4/PS4 Pro Console, please do the following.
1. Connect Mini-Transmitter to USB Port on the console.
” alt=”PS_Setup.PNG” width=”389″ height=”179″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWKdt&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smZL%2FcaMsa.MfMWA6hOvkRz3QQWJ3RYlrPbEAonqM6R4dEAE&asPdf=false” />
2. Power the headset on.
” alt=”PS_Setup_Step_2.PNG” width=”207″ height=”204″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWKhU&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smf4%2FmYoLCFtLNs51hyWNb5oV5Ne0BKYNeDFCI6.G5QvLJrg&asPdf=false” />
3. Go to Settings >> Devices >> Audio Devices
4. Select Adjust Microphone Level and follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate your microphone.
Please Note: This headset does not contain its own onboard surround processing. The PlayStation 4 does not provide surround sound processing through its USB path. As such, the Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS cannot play surround sound from a PS4 console. The only exception to this is if the game itself has its own surround sound track that will play through the PS4’s (stereo) USB connection.
PS5 SETUP
If you instead have a PS5 console, please do the following.
1. Plug the transmitter for your headset into a free USB port on the console, and then power the headset on. The headset and transmitter should pair to each other, and the LEDs on both transmitter and headset will be lit solid.
2. Go to Settings >> Sound >> Audio Output >> Output Device
3. Adjust your microphone levels by going to Settings >> Sound >> Microphone >> Adjust Mic Level >> Microphone Level
Please Note: While this headset does not contain its own onboard surround processing, Sony has indicated that the PlayStation 5 will deliver ‘3D Audio‘ to any headset that connects to its controller or USB Port. Is this is desired, after the headset is configured, you can enable the 3D Audio function to enhance the audio through your headset. Then, go to Adjust 3D Audio Profile to select the best profile option for your game.
The MODE Button and Mappable Wheel on your Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset can be assigned to a new function based on your gaming style.
” alt=”Mappable_Buttons.PNG” width=”311″ height=”139″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWKfj&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smTS%2FRHcnde3fBQsdroy84GgL9inguKIHwDphu70vQhfJTU0&asPdf=false” />
Out of the box, the Mappable Wheel will adjust the headset’s Mic Monitor feature, which allows you to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic — helping you to avoid inadvertently shouting at other players.
PLEASE NOTE: The lower volume dial is re-mappable, and thus will spin freely, where the top volume dial cannot be re-mapped, and will not spin freely.
Out of the box, pressing the Mode button will engage or disengage the Superhuman Hearing feature, which will adjust the audio to allow you to pinpoint quiet audio cues like enemy footsteps and weapon reloads.
To change the buttons’ assignments, follow these steps:
1. Download the Turtle Beach Audio Hub mobile app on your iOS or Android device.
2. Enable Bluetooth on your selected device, and pair with your headset to access the app.
3. Swipe to the second settings screen, and click the arrow next to the control you’d like to re-assign.

Your custom Preset will then show up in the list of available Presets.
The Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset has a variety of features that can be controlled through the mobile version of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub, available here.
After installing the Audio Hub app from your phone’s app store, you’ll need to Bluetooth pair your headset to your phone. The Bluetooth connection is separate from the wireless connection your headset has to its wireless transmitter. With a Bluetooth connection, you can take phone calls or listen to music while you’re gaming.
Bluetooth pairing instructions are available here.
Note: If the app does not detect your headset, please try the following:
Once your headset and phone are paired via Bluetooth, open the Turtle Beach Audio Hub app.
(As your headset is being detected, you may see a notification that your headset has a firmware update available. If this is the case, go to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub, so that you can update your headset with the Windows or macOS Audio Hubs.)
This is the first screen you’ll see when you open the Audio Hub app.
This screen will feature different settings and controls that can be customized.
” alt=”Home_Screen.jpg” width=”378″ height=”597″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLc1&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smye%2FTx9mSxFsG_GZYBJZXGVsPXH1Wmzw6Ydl.jy6_.hXJyk&asPdf=false” />

Mic Monitor – This is a feature that allows you to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic. This helps to avoid inadvertently shouting at other players. Toggle the Mic Monitor On, and then adjust the volume of your voice in the headset when you speak.
This screen includes the controls for mappable buttons, as well as for the voice prompts/tones.
” alt=”Second_Screen.jpg” width=”378″ height=”596″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLcL&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000sn2J%2FWUsBvzu1fCG2uGc_Vn.WvKcUttMHPgRqg54lcn1W1tE&asPdf=false” />
Mappable Wheel – This is the lower volume dial on the headset itself. Out of the box, it controls the Mic Monitor volume. While the upper volume dial is not mappable, this lower volume dial is, and thus will spin freely, unlike the upper volume dial. For information on re-mapping this wheel, please click here.
Mappable Button – This is the button on the headset labelled “Mode”. Out of the box, it will toggle the Superhuman Hearing feature. This button can be remapped to control other features. For information on re-mapping this button, please click here.
Noise Gate – This feature helps to ensure that your voice is what is transmitted by the mic, not ambient or background noise.
Voice Prompts Level – Control the volume of the vocal prompts that play in your headset, including when the headset is powered on, Bluetooth is powered on/pairing, and the headset pairs with the transmitter. If you set this to the lowest setting you will not hear any voice prompts at all!
Tones Level – Control the volume of the audio tones that play in your headset when some features are engaged, or when the mic is muted/unmuted. Like the Voice Prompts level, if this is set to the lowest setting, you will not hear any indicator tones at all!
These screens will have some essential information and details about the headset itself. This information may be needed when troubleshooting an issue or when talking with Customer Support. The links lead to Turtle Beach social media pages, and to the Support section of the Turtle Beach website — which you are currently reading right now!
You will also see an image of the headset, as well as the name of the headset, and the version numbers for both the mobile Audio Hub app and the headset’s firmware.
” alt=”Info_Screen.jpg” width=”380″ height=”599″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLbm&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smns%2FD7eU3ZKBEyCsfD_gAsfoffsGX0MFTYfMuthYL9lcsI0&asPdf=false” />
The Stealth 700 Gen 2 PS headset comes with some unique headset controls and audio features.
On the back of the Left earcup, there are two volume dials. One is for the Master volume, and the other is a Mappable Wheel that, by default, controls the variable Mic Monitor volume.
The Master Volume dial will control the volume of both game and chat audio. The Mappable Wheel can control various functions (as set in the Turtle Beach Audio Hub); out of the box, this wheel will adjust the headset’s Mic Monitor feature, which allows you to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic — helping you to avoid inadvertently shouting at other players.
**PLEASE NOTE: There is a limit to the amount the Master Volume/upper dial will move. The Mappable Wheel/lower dial will spin freely, with no stopping point. This is intentional; if your Mappable Wheel/lower dial spins freely, your headset is working as intended.**
Below those dials is the Mode Button. Like the variable Mic Monitor dial, this can be re-mapped if needed, to control other features. Out of the box, pressing this button will engage and disengage the Superhuman Hearing feature, which adjusts the audio so you can pinpoint quiet audio cues like enemy footsteps and weapon reloads.
PLEASE NOTE: Superhuman Hearing is disengaged by default. When Superhuman Hearing is engaged, you’ll hear an ascending tone. When Superhuman Hearing is disengaged, you’ll hear a descending tone. In addition, when Superhuman Hearing is engaged, your EQ Presets will be disengaged.
For more information about re-mapping the Mappable Wheel and Mode Button, please click here.
Next to the Mode Button is the Power Button. Press and hold this button to power the headset on and off.
Next to the Power Button is the Bluetooth Multi-Function Button. Press and hold this button to put the headset into the Bluetooth Pairing Mode, which will allow it to connect to a Bluetooth-enabled device like a smartphone or mobile tablet. (For more information about Bluetooth, please click here.)

TRANSMITTER LED | MEANING |
Solid Green | Headset And Transmitter Paired |
Double-Blink Green | Headset And Transmitter Not Paired |
Breathing Red | Mic Muted |
Your headset and transmitter will already be paired out of the box. If the headset/transmitter LEDs are double-blinking green, the headset and transmitter may need to be re-paired. To do so, please do the following:
1. Start with the headset powered OFF. Make sure the transmitter is in the Xbox mode.
2. Press and hold the power button on the headset until the headset’s LED starts “breathing” green..
3. Insert the transmitter into the console. Wait until the transmitter’s LED starts to double-blink.
4. After a few moments, your headset and transmitter LEDs should become solid green — if your mic is muted, the transmitter LED will instead be breathing red.
If the LEDs still double-blink green after this process is performed, or if the headset and transmitter otherwise do not pair after this process, please contact our support team for further assistance.
The pairing process for the Stealth 600 Gen 2 MAX is similar no matter which Mode the transmitter is set to, but for the best audio experience, it is important to make sure that the transmitter is set to the correct Mode for your specific platform.
o pair your headset to the transmitter:
1. Put the transmitter into the correct Mode.
If you are using the headset with an Xbox console – either Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One — move the transmitter’s switch to Xbox.
If you are using the headset with a different USB device – a PS5 or PS4 console, a Windows or Mac PC, or a Nintendo Switch (in docked mode) – move that switch to USB.
2. Connect the transmitter to the USB port on your platform.
3. Power the headset on by pressing and holding the headset’s Power button.
4. Wait for headset and transmitter to pair. The LEDs on both headset and transmitter will turn solid when the headset and transmitter pair successfully.
You may — very sparingly — need to re-pair the headset. This would most likely happen following a firmware update. Please note that you will need a paperclip or something similar for this process.
To re-pair the headset and transmitter:
Again, this process would need to be performed sparingly, most likely after a firmware update is performed. Generally the headset and transmitter should be able to pair to each other on their own.
With the desktop version of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub — available for Windows and Mac here — you can adjust and control some of the headset’s features.
**PLEASE NOTE: The headset MUST be powered on, and the headset and transmitter MUST be paired, for the Turtle Beach Audio Hub to recognize the headset/transmitter. If the headset is not powered on, or the headset and transmitter are not paired, the Turtle Beach Audio Hub will NOT recognize your device, and you will see an error message. If this happens, disconnect and reconnect the headset and transmitter, and power the headset on. The headset and transmitter will pair, and the Audio Hub will then recognize your device.**
The home page will show an image of the headset on the left sidebar, as well as options to Restore or Update the firmware. On the top-right of that page, you’ll see the version of the Audio Hub written in gray.
There will also be two slider settings. One will be labeled “Mic Monitor Level“. The other will be labeled “Tones Level“.
Mic Monitor Level will control the volume of the Mic Monitor feature — this is how loud you hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic. The aim of this feature is to help you avoid inadvertently yelling at other people and/or players.
Tones Level will control the volume of indicator tones — these are the tones that play when the headset is powered on, the mic is muted or unmuted, or a feature (like Superhuman Hearing) is engaged or disengaged. This also controls the volume of the tones that play when the EQ Preset is switched via the Mode button.
The second page of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub is the Information page. This will provide the following information:
The USB-A transmitter is equipped with a switch that allows you to change compatibility modes, and use the headset with a variety of different platforms and consoles. This switch is shown (set to the Xbox mode) in the image below:
In the Xbox mode, the headset can be used with an Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One console.
In the USB mode, the headset can be used with a PS5 or PS4 console, a Windows PC or Mac computer, or a Nintendo Switch that is in the docked mode. (Please note that this headset cannot be used with a Nintendo Switch that is in the handheld mode – the Switch must be in the dock.)
Here are the headset compatibilities listed by transmitter mode:
XBOX MODE | USB MODE |
Xbox Series X|S | PlayStation (PS4, PS5) |
Xbox One | Windows PC, Mac |
Nintendo Switch** | |
**Nintendo Switch wireless compatibility is supported while the Switch is in the docked mode only. Chat is available only for games that support in-game chat compatibilities. |
PLEASE NOTE: The headset controls WILL change depending on which mode the transmitter is set to. This is detailed below:
HEADSET CONTROL | XBOX MODE XBOX SERIES X|S XBOX ONE |
USB MODE PS4/PS5, PC/MAC NINTENDO SWITCH** |
UPPER Volume Dial | Game Audio Volume | Master (Game + Chat) Volume |
LOWER Volume Dial | Chat Audio Volume | Variable Mic Monitor Volume*** |
**Nintendo Switch wireless compatibility is supported while the Switch is in the docked mode only. Chat is available only for games that support in-game chat compatibilities.
***Mic Monitor is a feature that allows you to hear your own voice when you speak into the mic, to help you avoid inadvertently yelling at other people and players. This does NOT control how loud other people hear you speak, only how loud you hear yourself
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 MAX headset has an adjustable, flip-to-mute mic. To use the mic, gently push/”flip” the mic forwards. You will hear a tone (low high) to indicate the mic is now unmuted. To mute the mic, just push/”flip” the mic back the other way. You will hear a tone (high low) to indicate that the mic is now muted.
If other players are unable to hear you in chat when using the headset – no matter which platform the headset is being used with, please double-check the following.
1. The Headset And Transmitter Are Paired/Transmitter Is In Correct Mode/Headset Is Detected By Console.
The headset and transmitter must be paired, and the transmitter in the correct mode, in order for the mic to work, so first make sure that the headset and transmitter have been successfully paired.
Please note that the transmitter must be plugged in to a USB port on the console for this pairing to occur. To double-check the status of the headset and transmitter’s pairing, just take a look at the LEDs on the headset and transmitter themselves. If both LEDs are lit up solid green, the headset and transmitter are successfully paired.
If the LEDs are both solid green, double-check that the transmitter is in the correct mode. The transmitter can be put in to two different modes: Xbox and USB. If the transmitter is in the USB mode but is connected to an Xbox console you may have audio issues even if the headset and transmitter are paired successfully.
As an additional test to see if the console itself is recognizing the headset:
Do you see the headset in that list?
If the headset and console are paired, the transmitter is in the correct mode, and you can see the headset in that list, but you cannot be heard, please proceed to step 2.
If you do not see that headset listed even if the headset and transmitter are paired and the transmitter is in the correct mode, please contact our Support Team.
Please note whether you see that ring, and then proceed to Step 3.
If you can hear your voice clearly when you play back that recording you’ve just made, the mic itself is working well – there could be an issue with the settings, or the way the headset and console are interacting. Please proceed to Step 4.
If you cannot hear your voice clearly when you play back that recording you’ve just made, please contact our Support Team with the results of Steps 2 and 3.
To perform a quick power cycle with the Headset/Console, please do the following, in this order:
To pair the headset:
If the mic issues persist even after a power cycle is performed, please contact the support team for additional assistance.
1. Headset Is Paired/Transmitter Is In USB Mode
The headset and transmitter must be paired in order for the mic to work, so first make sure that the headset and transmitter have been successfully paired.
Please note that the transmitter must be plugged in to a USB port on the console for this pairing to occur. To double-check the status of the headset and transmitter’s pairing, just take a look at the LEDs on the headset and transmitter themselves. If both LEDs are lit up solid green, the headset and transmitter are successfully paired.
If the LEDs are both solid green, double-check that the transmitter is in the correct mode. The transmitter can be put in to two different modes: Xbox and USB. If the transmitter is in the Xbox mode but is connected to a different USB device (not an Xbox console), you may have audio issues, even if the headset and transmitter are paired successfully.
2. Check Platforms/Game Settings
For some platforms (a PlayStation console, a PC), the headset will need to be set as the default device in the platform settings. In addition, the game or program itself will likely have its own audio settings, which may include an independent setting for input and output device.
To check these settings, you’ll need to go into the settings menu for the specific platform you are looking to use the headset with. This will vary depending on your platform, as indicated here.
3. Recording Test
If the headset and transmitter are paired, the transmitter is in the correct mode, and the settings (for the game/program and the platform being used) are configured correctly, try a recording test.
To do this, you’ll need to use the recording option available to you on the platform in question. For a PC, you can use an application like Sound Recorder or Voice Recorder; for a console, you can record a test message.
When you play back that recording you made, can you hear what you had recorded clearly and consistently?
If you cannot hear your voice clearly when you play back that recording you’ve just made, please contact our Support Team.
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 MAX For Xbox headset can be used with either an Xbox console, or with a different USB device, including PlayStation consoles, a Windows PC, or a Nintendo Switch (while the Switch itself is in docked mode).

1. Put the transmitter into USB Mode.
2. Connect the transmitter to the USB port on your platform.
3. Power the headset on by pressing and holding the headset’s Power button.
4. Wait for the headset and transmitter to pair.
Once the headset and transmitter are paired, you may need to configure the settings for your specific platform, as detailed below.

(BUILT-IN XBOX WIRELESS)
If your headset will not respond to button presses and is displaying a solid Red LED, please follow the below steps to reset your headset.
Part 1. Hard-Reset Your Headset
To hard-reset your Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox headset, please do the following:
Hold down the Connect and Mode buttons for 20 seconds. These buttons are highlighted in the image below.
” alt=”Hard_Reset_Buttons.PNG” width=”287″ height=”96″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWKp9&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smQT%2FRSnLG6KWBpRTKhvc7.qlgPAOotsIvOV8ojaf_hZP_EM&asPdf=false” />
This is a very long press — make sure that you do not release the buttons too early. Holding the buttons down for too long is better than for too short. This will hard-reset the headset, which may clear up what you are experiencing.
**If the LED remains red, please try this process again. This “long press” should force the headset to power off regardless of the state it is in.**
After the headset powers off completely, press the headset’s Power button to power it back on as normal.
Part 2: Update The Headset’s Firmware
Applying the firmware update will be necessary to prevent the headset from getting stuck in an unresponsive Red-LED state again.
To apply the firmware update: After the headset powers on, use the included USB cable to plug your headset into a free USB port on your computer, with the Turtle Beach Audio Hub running. The Audio Hub will detect the headset, search for available firmware updates, and prompt you to install those updates.
The firmware update will prevent this issue from repeating itself. For firmware update instructions, click here.
Part 3: Hard-Reset the Console, Then Pair The Headset To Your Xbox Console
Once that firmware update has been performed, please perform a hard-reset of the console, as well.
1. Hold down the Power button on the console for several seconds, until the console itself fully shuts down. Do not quick-press this button, as that will only put the console into Sleep mode. To perform this process properly, the console itself will need to power down completely.
2. Once the console has powered off completely, press the power button on the console to turn it back on. You should see the Xbox logo display, and hear a sound effect.
3. If you power on the console and it does an “Instant Boot” into the Dashboard, the hard-reset process was not performed correctly. You will need to perform this process again, starting with Step 1.
4. Once you are sure that the console has been hard-reset properly, please verify that your headset is assigned to the correct profile when powered on.
To re-pair the headset, please do the following:
**Please Note: In case this issue was caused by a conflict with the USB Port you were using, please try charging your headset with a USB Power Adapter instead. These adapters are often included with new phones and will work fine to charge your headset.**———————
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox has an adjustable mic. To use the mic, gently push (“flip”) the mic forwards. You will hear a tone (low high) when the mic itself is unmuted. When the mic is fully flipped forwards, it will “lock” into position. To mute the mic, just flip the mic back the other way. You will hear a tone (high low) when the mic is muted.
If other players are unable to hear you in Xbox Live Chat or on your Xbox One console, please check the following.
1. Check That The Headset And Console Are Paired/Headset Is Detected By Console
The Headset and Console need to be paired to each other in order for the mic to work. Make sure that the Headset and Console have been successfully paired.
To check if the headset and console are paired, take a look at the LED on the headset. If it is solid green, the headset and console are paired. If the LED on the headset is not solid, the headset may not be paired to the console. Please review the following to determine whether the headset and console are paired:
HEADSET LED | MEANING |
Solid Green | Headset And Console Paired |
Breathing Green | (While Charged) Battery Full |
Double-Blink Green | Not Paired |
Solid Red | (While Charging) Battery Charging LED Turns Off When Battery Is Fully Charged (If Headset Is Off) |
Breathing Red | Battery Low |
**PLEASE NOTE: The headset’s Mic Monitoring will still continue to function even if the headset and console are not paired. You may be able to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic, but if the headset itself is not paired to the console, other people would not be able to hear you until the headset and console were paired again.**
As an additional test to see if the console itself is recognizing the headset:
Do you see the headset in that list?
If the headset and console are paired, and you can see the headset in that list, but you cannot be heard, please proceed to step 2.

PLEASE NOTE: The Xbox Wireless Adapter is not included with the headset purchase, and is sold separately.
**In addition: When used on a PC, the volume controls will differ from when used with an Xbox console. You will need to first turn down the lower Volume Control on your headset to the minimum value. Then, use the upper volume control on the headset to control the volume of the audio from your PC. These controls will not work on PC as they do on an Xbox One console; as a result you cannot control Game and Chat audio separately.**
A limited number of computers do have Xbox Wireless built in. For those computers, an Xbox Wireless Adapter is not necessary to use the headset. Since those PCs already have Xbox Wireless built in, you would just need to pair the headset with your PC.
PLEASE NOTE: Not all PCs have built-in Xbox Wireless. If you are not sure if your PC has this feature, check your PC’s specifications, or check with the manufacturer of your PC.
Once you have confirmed that your PC has built-in Xbox Wireless, please do the following to pair your headset to the PC for use:
CONFIGURING YOUR SETTINGS

First, power the headset on, and make sure the headset and console are paired.
Once the headset is paired to the console, configure the Windows Sonic Surround Sound:

For the best experience, we recommend always running the most up-to-date firmware on your headset.
There is an important firmware update available for the Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox, which will prevent it from getting locked in an unresponsive state, with the LED stuck on solid red. If your Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox headset is unresponsive, click here.
Connect to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub for Windows or Mac to update the firmware.
To update your headset’s firmware, please do the following:
1. First, download the Turtle Beach Audio Hub; this is available for both Windows and Mac.
2. Once the Audio Hub has been downloaded/installed, open the program.
3. Plug the headset itself into a free USB port on the computer. The Audio Hub program will automatically detect that the headset has been connected, and will search for any available updates. If there is an available update, you will be prompted to perform that update.
Once that firmware update has been performed, please perform a hard-reset of the console, as well.
1. Hold down the Power button on the console for several seconds, until the console itself fully shuts down. Do not quick-press this button, as that will only put the console into Sleep mode. To perform this process properly, the console itself will need to power down completely.
2. Once the console has powered off completely, press the power button on the console to turn it back on. You should see the Xbox logo display, and hear a sound effect.
3. If you power on the console and it does an “Instant Boot” into the Dashboard, the hard-reset process was not performed correctly. You will need to perform this process again, starting with Step 1.
4. Once you are sure that the console has been hard-reset properly, please verify that your headset is assigned to the correct profile when powered on.
You can now use your fully-updated headset with your console.
In addition to updating the headset’s firmware, you can also adjust the following settings:
” alt=”S600Xv2_WEFAH_P1.PNG” width=”800″ height=”600″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWLHs&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000snCB%2Fk6diBj2JBWHS1KWhEyzGbFO.Vkz0XeFicqqqS7n6YZw&asPdf=false” />
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox headset pairs directly with the Xbox console. The Headset will need to be paired with the console prior to the Headset’s first use.
**PLEASE NOTE: This article covers pairing the headset directly with an Xbox One Console. If you are looking to use this headset with an Xbox Wireless Adapter, please click here.**
Please do the following to pair the headset and console:
1. Power on both the headset and the console. The LEDs should light up.
” alt=”Xbox_Setup_1.PNG” width=”452″ height=”252″ data-ezsrc=”https://manuals.plus/ezoimgfmt/turtlebeach–c.na137.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00DU0000000Jga6&ids=0684U00000BWL4U&d=%2Fa%2F4U000000smdp%2FTNKDGj2YK7HM8Ygtcxes25tSSLXJr7pfAwKA5EMvce8&asPdf=false” />

The Stealth 600 Gen 2 Xbox headset gives you 15 hours of rechargeable battery life. Make sure to charge it regularly before storing.
Please note that in order to conserve battery life, your headset will power off after no audio is played through it for 10 consecutive minutes. This is a fixed feature, and cannot be adjusted. This feature helps to save battery life – if you forget to power the headset off for the night after a long gaming session, you will only lose a few minutes of battery life, not a whole night’s worth.
To easily avoid the Auto-Shutdown feature, you can keep some music playing in the background, like the game’s soundtrack. The headset will detect the audio, and will not engage the Auto-Shutdown feature.
When the battery is low, the headset LED will “breathe” red. That LED will change to solid red when the headset is plugged in and charging; when the headset is plugged in, powered on, and has finished charging, the headset LED will “breathe” green. If the headset is plugged in, powered off, and has finished charging, the LED will turn off.
Headset Storage

The headset and transmitter are paired out of the box. This is indicated by a solid LED on the transmitter.
If your transmitter’s LED is double-blinking, follow these steps to pair your headset and transmitter.
1. Connect your Stealth 600 Gen 2 for PlayStation Transmitter into an available USB port on your PlayStation 4 console. Your Transmitter will begin to double-blink blue as it searches for your headset.
2. Power on your Stealth 600 Gen 2 for PlayStation Headset; the LED will begin to double-blink blue as it searches for your transmitter.
3. Within 10 seconds, the Transmitter’s and Headset’s LEDs remain solid, indicating a successful pairing.
Please Note: After 30 seconds, your transmitter will search for both the previously paired headset, or any available Stealth 600 Gen 2 headset to pair to. Bring the two units closer together to ensure faster pairing. If this pairing seems to take longer than 10 seconds, do not move either the headset or transmitter or otherwise interrupt the pairing process. As long as both headset and transmitter are in the pairing mode and are near each other, the headset and transmitter should pair without issue.
Symptom:
If you are experiencing audible background noise while in the console menu (either the PS4 menu or the PS5 menu), please perform a firmware update, as detailed below:
Once the headset’s firmware update has been performed, you should be able to use the headset without issue.
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 PS headset has a flip-to-mute mic. When flipped all the way forward, the mic is unmuted.
To mute the mic, flip it up and towards the back of the headset. There will be an audible tone (low high) when the mic becomes muted.
Flip the mic to the second position shown in the following image to mute the mic as needed during chats. Flip the mic to the third position in that image to mute the mic when it is not needed.
If you are having issues being heard in chat, please do the following:
1. Make Sure Headset Is Charged/Powered On, Updated
First, charge the headset using its included USB Charge Cable. Then, make sure to hold the Power button to power the headset on. Once the headset is powered on, update the headset’s firmware if you have not yet done so.
Once the headset is fully charged/powered on, and the headset’s firmware is up to date, test the headset again. Are you still having issues? If so, please move on to step 2.
2. Double-Check Headset is Paired To Transmitter/Detected By Console, Settings are Configured
The headset and transmitter need to be paired in order to use the headset for chat. To make sure the headset is paired to the transmitter, please disconnect the transmitter and power the headset off completely. Then, perform the pairing process as indicated in this article — but be sure to connect the transmitter to a different USB port.
After the headset and transmitter are paired, do you see a prompt on the screen to let you know that a headset was assigned?
If you go to Settings >> Devices >> Audio Devices, is Stealth 600 Gen 2 set as the Default Input and Output Device? If you select Adjust Microphone Level and then follow the on-screen instructions, do you see any activity on that screen?
If you do not see any activity on that screen, contact our support team.
If you do see activity on that screen, please move on to step 3.
3. Check Game Settings
If you’re having issues only with a specific game — like Fortnite, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, or Call of Duty: Warzone, make sure the settings for the game itself are configured correctly.
In Fortnite, make sure that Voice Chat is Enabled, and that the Voice Chat Method is not set to Push-To-Talk (it should be set to Open Mic).
You can see the correct settings for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare/Call of Duty: Warzone here.
In addition, if you’re in a Party while playing a game, make sure that your audio is prioritizing the group you’re using for chat. You can do this by opening the Party window, and then going to Party Settings. Select either Prioritize Game or Prioritize Chat, depending on which you are using for chat.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, but the headset works well with other games or in the Adjust Microphone Level screen, the issue may be game-specific; in that case, you may want to contact the support team for the game itself.
4. Power Cycle Headset/Console
To perform a quick power cycle with the Headset/Console, please do the following, in this order:
To pair the headset:
If the Power Cycle does not resolve this, please contact our Support Team.
Please follow the instructions below to get your Stealth 600 Gen 2 PS headset set up for use with a Nintendo Switch console.
Once you see those icons, you should be able to hear the game/chat audio. You may still need to configure the settings for the specific game you’re using the headset with.
Please Note: These settings will vary from game to game. In addition, there are a limited number of games that support in-chat capability.
You can find the instructions for configuring the settings for Fortnite below:
1. Make sure you are logged in to your profile. Once you are logged in, press the + button on the switch to bring up the Social menu. Scroll down to and then select the gear icon on the bottom of the left sidebar.
2. The sidebar will change in appearance from your friends list to a list of several different options. Select the “Settings” option, as shown below.
3. You will see several tabs on the top of the screen. Scroll to the Speaker tab – this is the Audio Settings tab. You can configure the Volume sliders to your liking. Then, scroll down to section labelled “Voice Chat”.
There will be two toggle settings: Voice Chat and Voice Chat Method.
Make sure that the Voice Chat is On and the Voice Chat Method is set to Open Mic. You should be able to hear and be heard in the chat.
This article details the best way to set your Stealth 600 Gen 2 PS headset up for use with a PS4 or PS5 console.

Please note: This process requires the use of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub program and a computer. Please make sure that you are running the latest version of the Turtle Beach Audio Hub program. The best way to ensure this is to download the latest version, which is available here.
To perform a Headset Recovery Process, please do the following:
If the Audio Hub does not prompt you to perform that update, please try steps 1-5 again, exactly as indicated above.
Please note that this process will take a few minutes complete. During this process, do not move the headset or jostle the USB connections.
Once you have completed this process:
The Stealth 600 Gen 2 PS headset comes with some unique headset controls and features.
On the back of the Left earcup, there are two volume dials. One is for Master volume, and the other is for variable Mic Monitor volume.
The Master volume dial will control the volume of both game and chat audio, while the Mic Monitor volume dial will adjust how volume of the headset’s Mic Monitor feature, which allows you to hear yourself through the headset when you speak into the mic — helping you to avoid inadvertently shouting at other players.
The Mic Monitor will be active whenever the headset is powered on and the mic is unmuted, even if the headset and transmitter are not paired. If the Mic Monitor is up all the way, you may hear ambient noise through the headset; if this happens, simply lower the Mic Monitor volume using that lower headset dial.
Below those dials is the Mode Button. Pressing this will allow you to cycle through the headset’s four EQ Presets, which are detailed below:
When you press the Mode button, tones will play to indicate which EQ Preset has been activated, as noted above.
Next to the Mode Button is the Power Button. Press and hold this button to power the headset on and off. Quick-press this button to engage Superhuman Hearing Mode, which adjusts the audio to allow you to pinpoint quiet audio cues like enemy footsteps and weapon reloads.
PLEASE NOTE: Superhuman Hearing is disengaged by default. When Superhuman Hearing is engaged, you’ll hear an ascending tone. When Superhuman Hearing is disengaged, you’ll hear a descending tone. In addition, when Superhuman Hearing is engaged, your EQ Presets will be disengaged.
Next to the Power Button is the USB Charge And Update Port. Plug the headset in via the included cable to charge the headset, or to update the headset’s firmware, as covered in further detail here.
The LED Indicator is next to the USB port on the headset. This LED indicator will inform you of things like the battery level of the headset, its current pairing status, and whether the headset is currently charging.
(For more information, please check out the pairing and charging articles for this headset.)
HEADSET LED | MEANING |
Solid Blue | Headset and Mini Transmitter Paired |
Breathing Blue | (While Charging) Battery Full |
Double-Blink Blue | Not Paired |
Solid Red | (While Charging) Battery Charging LED Turns Off When Battery Is Fully Charged (If Headset Is Off) |
Breathing Red | Battery Low |
The Mini Transmitter also has an LED indicator; this will inform you of things like the pairing status of the headset/transmitter (in the same way the headset would), but also whether the headset’s mic is muted.
TRANSMITTER LED | MEANING |
Solid Blue | Headset and Mini Transmitter Paired |
Double-Blink Blue | Not Paired |
Breathing Red | Mic Muted |
Finally, after the LED indicator is the flip-to-mute Microphone. Flip the mic all the way forward to unmute the mic. The mic will stop at the second position shown in the image below, and you will hear a tone (low high) to indicate that the mic has been unmuted. Flip the mic to the first position to use the mic itself.
You can also bend the mic closer to you; the mic itself has a hinge that will allow limited horizontal movement to offer a better position for speaking, if necessary.
