Troubleshooting

No sound or low volume.

Check the cable connection to both the headphones and the audio source. Ensure the volume is turned up on both devices and that the audio source is playing.

Sound quality is poor or unbalanced.

Check the audio source for any equalization or effects that might be affecting the sound. Also, ensure that the headphones are properly connected and that the drivers are not damaged.

One earcup is not working.

Check the cable connection. If the issue persists, the cable might be faulty, and you should try a different cable.

Headphones feel uncomfortable after extended use.

Take breaks and adjust the headband or earcups to find a more comfortable fit. Ensure that the earcups are correctly positioned over your ears.
