Incase anyone else wondered - I have the Void Wireless, and the mic broke in exactly the same spot. Followed this tutorial, and it's fixed, yay! Boom can now move up and down again, and work as it should. Thanks again for the tutorial 8D

I have the Void Pro Wireless, got it from best buy about 10 months ago. About 4 months ago the mic got a little loose and at first it wasn't bad, then the mic just fell out. I have been using a hair tye to hold it up, wrapped just once around earmuff to mic and back. Hoping this is a permanent fix, til I buy a new headset.

You are a lifesaver. I was going to try and cut the cord and use them as just headphones, but I'm glad to see I don't have to. I am going to try and improve upon the repair with a soldering gun as well.

You open the headset just take off the panel and you will see the 2 screws you need to tighten to make the mic not wobble. You dont need to take off the motherboard just the speaker cover.

Great video, saved my headset! I have the wireless version and there's a slight difference. the joint where the arm pivots has a plastic raised socket that inserts over a plug on the housing and another screw the other side holding but.... There's an electronic board in the wireless that's bigger than the one here and it also needs to be removed (Or a few screws removed to give play) to allow you to remove/reinsert the joint as it' partially underneath. Don't write your headset off yet, it can be saved! XD

Thanks for the video. It turned out to be a lot more fiddly than what you made it look but it worked (and I am a bit cack handed). People with a better memory than me might remember which screws went into which holes in the inner part but I didn't and screwed some into the wrong place which meant I couldn't get the outer cover on. I also ended up with an extra screw when I had finished. It should have gone in the inner part somewhere. But all's well that ends well. Thanks again.

my issue is that the wire at the base of the headset is causing constant disconnect from the system when I move my head. I assume it's a buggered wire but that plastic bits gonna be and issue... go for the wireless if anything or get something with a sheathed cable cause this is bull. It's actually causing youtube and other apps to update and requires a refresh.

sounds like the headset wire got pulled too hard and the wires got to torn inside the rubber sleeve. Wireless - yeah but who wants that by your head all for hours at a time. I stick with wired.

I have the wireless and mine broke about 2 inches below the tip, right below the actual mic part. It literally bent and came off completely, and I had to rip it off. I'm trying to just take the mic out completely, or atleast buy a replacement mic and put it in, which is probably not possible

superglue can bond rubber. But if the rubber is perishing then no, if its just a tear and the remaining rubber is good, then yes.

Yup that just happened to me like 20 minutes ago. It slid off a slanted book on my desk and now the mic itself is almost broken in half, wire visible and every thing. The damned thing only works when I put it in a very specific angle, but there's no way I could keep it that way at all times. Pretty sure i'll have to order a replacement.

No- it's virtual... The included USB dongle creates a virtual 7.1 audio device and downmixes it to stereo... It's similar to using Razer Synapse with regular headphones. It's a bit crappy sounding with the dongle so I prefer to use a 4-POLE Plug To 3.5MM Microphone Headphone Jack- and just plug it into my soundcard (Strix Soar)- even onboard audio is better than using the dongle with iCUE...
