Hi everyone,
The HyperX Cloud Stinger S is my first gaming headset (and my second headset in general). It came with a USB adapter and just a normal 3.5mm audio jack.
However, I noticed a significant volume difference between connecting the headset via the audio jack and the USB adapter. It's very quiet on the latter! Is this normal, and am I supposed to be using one over the other?
The main reason I started with the USB adapter is because the HyperX software only recognizes my headset through that, and I can only enable the 7.1 surround sound feature through the software. But I've been reading that the 7.1 surround sound isn't even that much of a step-up from what the default is.
