What is the proper wiring for HyperX Core Stinger TRRS connector?

For those who may benefit from my attempts

Before you solder — You must find the connection on the end on a multimeter as some TRRS connector ends are wired differently.

Regardless of the color the wiring - HyperX headsets seem to always be wired as TRRS CTIA style:

(You can usually find out on the product documentation page)

Below is how I wired the HyperX Stinger Core with the color wires as reference.

Tip - Left Audio ( Green )

Ring 1 - Right Audio ( Red )

Ring 2** - Ground (Striped Blue-Copper color + Copper outer “shell” of the White wire)

• There may also be an additional colored wire as another ground. I had a Blue wire I attached to Ring 2

Sleeve - Mic ( White )

All of the wires must be “stripped” before soldering as they have thin enamel coating.

Stripe the wires by using lighter to gently singe the coating off. Be careful as the wire will quickly catch fire if exposed to a flame too long.

As for the Mic (white) wire, I recommend that you use the heat from the soldering iron to melt it off as I found using a lighter too harsh, and scrapping with a tool too difficult.

After, I recommend you use a blunt scrapping tool or sand paper to gently remove any burn residue.

When testing the AUDIO connections you must have the Striped Color (GROUND) connected or nothing will be heard.

When testing the MIC connection you must have the outer Copper wire grounded or the mic will not work.

After my wiring, I had FULL R / L Audio with volume wheel working and a functional mic.

Hope this helps others.
