I also have a pair of G930s. They've always worked fine for me with Crysis 2.

Can you be more specific concerning "the sound is like only concentrate to the right headphone"?
That is, is the balance between the two headphones off by a constant ratio, does the balance vary, or is sound only coming out of the right headphone?

One thing that you want to be sure about is if you have the latest version of the Logitech Gaming Software.

Download here :

I just ditched y G930s.

But I know what problem you have. You need to get the latest Logitech Software for it, here:
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/game-gear/wireless-gaming-headset-g930?osid=14&bit=64

Go to downloads and get what's appropriate for you-


Now here's the tricky part. If it still doesnt work: When you have the software running, when you plug in your wireless USB into your computer, an image of your headset should appear on the software. If not, close the software by clicking the ^ buton next to your clock, and right clicking the logitech control panel and exiting it.
Now replug your wireless USB stick, and a second or two later, start the software again. This usually made it pick it up for me.

If you have the picture in your control panel, then try switching your surround button to on or off on your headsets left side. You can see in the surround section on the software if surround is turned on or not. For games, you need it to be on, otherwise sound will only come through the right ear. If flicking the switch doesnt do anything, just close the program and try again.

Protip, if in windows playback devices, it says Logitech G930 Headphones, then the software should pick it up. Sometimes it will keep connecting and reconnecting, if it takes more than a minute, just try again.

This is something I had to do every time I started my computer. Good headset, otherwise.

My 930s are falling apart and I have to keep them plugged in because there's something wrong with the battery ( negating their "wireless" feature ).

I desperately want these :

The "charger" that it came with svcks. Get a phone charger that works with it, and it'll work. Just a shorter cable.

Ok sorry for be late.

Right now i'm with the: Logitech software gaming 8.30.86.

I did some tests, for example with L4D2 i use the 7.1 option in the game, with out the surround activated from the headphones obiusly sounds like crap and like i said "the sound is like only concentrate to the right headphone" i try to mean that the voices from the game and most of the background music are only in the right headphone, in the leaft headphone i can hear it too but it's more concetrate to the roght.

BTW when i turned on the the surround in headpohnes, it's just amazing and no problems (L4D2)

Now this is like Crysis 2, the game use 7.1 by default from windows i think, but it sounds really bad the sound quality from the game, only with the surround on in the headphones. So I turned off the surround from the headphones and the games sounds good but the voices from the game and most of the background music are only in the right headphone, left too but like i said sounds very low.

Crysis 2 never said that supports 7.1, this is why i think the sound svcks in surrounds mode, but i think the game is using the 7.1 as default from windows as normal.

Any idea?
