Setup Guide

Connecting to Consoles (PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch)

For most consoles, simply plug the 3.5mm jack directly into your controller's headset port. The USB plug is only for powering the LED lights on the headset.

  • Locate the 3.5mm audio jack on your controller (e.g., PS4/PS5 DualShock/DualSense, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch).
  • Insert the 3.5mm plug of the headset firmly into the controller's audio jack.
  • If desired, connect the USB plug to a USB port on your console or a USB power adapter to activate the LED lights.
  • Adjust audio settings on your console as needed to ensure headset audio and microphone input are correctly configured.
  • Important Note for Old Xbox One Controllers: An additional Microsoft Adapter (not included) is required to connect the headset to older Xbox One controllers that do not have a built-in 3.5mm jack.

Connecting to PC/Laptop

For PCs and laptops, you may need to use the included 3.5mm splitter cable if your device has separate ports for audio output and microphone input.

  • If your PC/laptop has a single 3.5mm combo jack (headphone/mic), plug the headset's 3.5mm jack directly into it.
  • If your PC/laptop has separate 3.5mm ports (one for headphones, one for microphone), use the included splitter cable. Plug the headset's 3.5mm jack into the splitter, then plug the splitter's two jacks (pink for mic, green for audio) into the corresponding ports on your PC.
  • Connect the USB plug to a USB port on your PC/laptop to power the LED lights.
  • Ensure your computer's audio settings are configured to use the headset as the default playback and recording device.

  • Plug the USB connector into any available USB port on your console, PC, or a USB power adapter.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the lifespan of your BENGOO G9000 headset.

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the headset, especially the earcups and headband. For protein leather earmuffs, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Cable Care: The braided cable is designed to be anti-winding. Avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive pulling on the cable to prevent internal damage. Use the included cable tie to keep the cable neatly organized when not in use.
  • Storage: Store the headset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the headset.
  • Microphone Protection: When not in use, gently fold the microphone arm up to prevent accidental damage.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your BENGOO G9000 headset, try the following solutions:

ProblemSolution
No sound from headset / Sound is distorted
  • Ensure the 3.5mm jack is fully inserted into the device.
  • Check the volume wheel on the in-line control unit and ensure it's turned up.

  • If using a PC with separate ports, ensure the splitter cable is correctly connected (green plug for audio).
  • Test the headset on another device to rule out device-specific issues.
Microphone not working / Poor mic quality
  • Ensure the microphone mute switch on the in-line control unit is in the "unmute" position.

  • Adjust the microphone arm closer to your mouth.
  • Test the microphone on another device.
LED lights not working
