Hooked up to my midland 630 lxt 2 way radio the volume in the headset is very quiet. is it because me radio is under powered to run the headset?

I returned the headset the day after it was received because there was no sound from the radio or scanner on either speaker. Not even static. I also plugged a portable Am-Fm radio into scanner port; still no sound. I have a headset pair that I use; but I needed an additional headset.

What cable to i need to use the ptt? do i need to run a cable from the 5 pin? a 3.5m to my radio does not work with ptt.

The 3.5mm port is simply for listening to music or audio through an external source such as a cell phone or tablet. You won't be able to transmit your voice through the microphone using the 3.5mm jack. You would need a 5-pin cable that connects to your radio to transmit. Reply with the model of your radio and I should be able to help you find the proper cable for use.

will these work with Midland radios?

You have to have the correct connection cable for your radio. I have Motorola and Midland radios with the proper cables for both and the headset did not work with either radio. I returned this headset and continued to use my prior headset which works for both radios. The cable has to be proper for each radio .

Very comfortable and easy to wear all day, but the volume is not the best maybe just a faulty set.

Hasn't been used yet.. but for those thinking of ordering .. it doesn't come with the cable to plug in.. $180+ with taxes and no cable .. a bit disappointing..

Bought them on sale. At the time had lower reviews. I took a chance and they have not failed me yet. Sound good. Work well. Comfortable enough. Aux jack works for my raceceiver along with my main official's radio at the same time. I take them as my normal hearing protection to other motorsports events. 10/10 would buy again but 3 years in and no sign of wear so i guess I won't be replacing them any time soon.
