While the Stealth 700 Gen 2 Xbox headset was designed to be used with an Xbox console directly, it can be used with a Windows PC, using a specific setup.
Please Note: This headset can be used with Windows PCs only.
For most PCs, you will need to pair the headset to an Xbox Wireless Adapter. This will give you the same wireless connection with the PC that you would have when you use the headset with an Xbox -- but please note that the controls will be different.**
To set your headset up for use with a PC that does not have Xbox Wireless built-in, please do the following.
1. Plug the Xbox Wireless Adapter into a free USB port on the computer.
Then, power the headset on by pressing and holding the Power button down.
2. Press and hold the Enroll button on the Adapter until the LED on the Adapter flashes. Then, press and hold the Connect button on the headset until the LED on the headset flashes.
3. Within a few seconds, the LEDs on both the headset and the Adapter will turn solid, indicating the headset and Adapter have been successfully synced.
PLEASE NOTE: The Xbox Wireless Adapter is not included with the headset purchase, and is sold separately.
**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:
- On your PC, go to Settings >> Devices >> Connected Devices
- Choose Add Bluetooth Or Other Device. Windows searches for the headset. Select Everything Else.
- Press the Connect button on your headset. Windows finds and adds the headset.
- When your Stealth 700 Gen 2 headset appears in the list under Other Devices, it is ready to use.
