Very good sound & microphone quality, if you have the right settings & USB 3.0 Port.
I purchased this headset as an upgrade from my Corsair VOID Surround as I wanted something with wireless capabilities. Initial impressions of this headset upon opening the box was a very premium feel. The headset feels very sturdy and the memory foam feels very high quality.A note to say, the headband of the headset can feel a little sore if used for a long period (2 hours+) but ultimately it comes down to the shape of your head and how far down you have the headset on your ears. The earcups are detachable and can be washed but be aware that memory foam takes time to dry out and be careful with the porous leather. The cups can spin out a full 180° range so they can sit on your chest flat comfortably.When I plugged in the headset to my PC, Corsair’s iCUE software picked up the headset immediately but I had no mic activity when I tried to talk on Discord. This was seemingly a common issue with a lot of people but I found the answer is down to the cable that is provided. It HAS to be plugged into a USB 3.0 port for the wired USB mode to have enough power to charge as well as produce high fidelity sound and great clarity on the microphone.Sound is great on wireless mode, even better on wired but only audiophiles will be able to tell the difference.Personally I found the sound from the headset to be a little disappointing on default EQ settings but with a little tinkering (turn that bass UP) the headset starts to sound great.Wireless range seems to be a little smaller than advertised, but it will still reach even out to the back garden of my house. Doesn’t really have the noise of signal breaking up, if it’s going to cut off, it will cut off.Overall I am very pleased with this headset. It feels very premium, the wireless functionality is very good and the battery lasts around 12 hours of heavy use from a full charge, would probably last longer without the LED’s constantly changing and having the mic unplugged.

Great Sound, Minor Fit Issues
The Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless headset delivers impressive sound quality, with rich bass and clear highs. The wireless connection is reliable, and the battery life is sufficient for long gaming sessions.However, I found the headset to be slightly tight on my head, which can cause discomfort during extended use. The ear cups are well-padded, but the clamping force could be reduced for better comfort.Despite the minor fit issues, the overall performance and sound quality make this headset a solid choice for gamers seeking a premium wireless experience.

Wireless Quality and solid build
I have upgraded to these from a set of Hyper X which are very good, by far the best you can get for the money but not wireless obv.So the corsair Virtuoso SE arrived already with enough charge to plug in and play for an evening straight out of the box, they were recognised immediately by the ICUE software, there was a short interlude to download and install a firmware upgrade but that had no problems and we are away again.I find them very comfortable and I wear glasses, obv my head is a different shape to yours and your milage may vary.Sound – some reviewers seem to find them lacking in bass I had to turn it down a bit from what I would have set in eq for the Hyper X set, the Corsair presets in ICUE are rubbish – make your own and tweak to your hearts content, the drivers are plenty big enough in these headsets bad sound is almost always down to software presets being very flat and bland. Also these are plenty loud on my system good job i’m old and deaf already.My Pc is quite new and built on a Corsair case, Memory, Fans, Headset Stand , Keyboard, Mouse and RGB mouse Pad (no you dont NEED one but you WANT one) all Corsair so ICUE is kept busy.MSI B450 Tomahawk Max Mb I use the onboard sound and it is excellent again depending on your own setup your sound will vary.The wireless is again excellent I can walk all round the house with no dropout, even down the garden path most of the way,not that I really need to.Charging is no problem when I am not wearing them just plug in the cable to the stand (or your nearest usb port) and they charge quite quickly and seem to last at least a couple of evenings before the very nice female voice informs me from the ether that I need to charge them, she also pops up when you turn the mic on and off with the button at the base of the mic.Rgb is fine, not that you can see it when your wearing them but it looks good when your charging them on their stand with all your other ICUE peripherals.Online on Discord I went to my FF ARR guild to see what they thought and they all reported my voice sounded much better than on the Hyper X, more natural and a bit warmer, the sidetone feature in settings is useful too so you don’t end up shouting when online as it blends a bit of your voice into the signal from the mic so you can hear yourself, very good in a shared house.I can only recommend this set but as always read up on them watch a few reviews on Youtube (Hardware Canucks,Jayztwocents etc).You pays your money you takes your choice, but I reckon these are very good for the price.

Ljudkvaliteten är grym, likasÃ¥ kvalitet pÃ¥ mic. Skönt att kunna plocka bort mic när man inte använder den.Lätt att konfigurera via Corsair’s app.Bandet över huvudet är dock ganska hÃ¥rt och det känns efter en stunds användning.Finns dock lösningar pÃ¥ det, sÃ¥ pÃ¥ det stora hela ett prisvärt headset.

Acquistate su warehouse in condizioni “come nuove” le stesse mi sono arrivate assolutamente prive di difetti visibili e perfettamente impacchettate.In linea di principio queste sono le cuffie da gaming “premium” della Corsair. La costruzione è assolutamente in linea con quello che ci si aspetta, sono praticamente tutte fatte il lega di alluminio spazzolato e al tatto e alla vista danno un grosso senso di solidità . Le imbottiture sono buone e la comodità nella norma con un peso più che accettabile. Le cuffie vengono vendute con un elegante astuccio di stoffa spessa a chiusura magnetica utile per il trasporto, 2 cavi: USB TYPE-C (ricarica o connessione cablata), cavo jack 3,5 e infine il micro ricevitore/trasmettitore per la connessione wireless.Le cuffie in modalità wireless posso lavorare o con il loro ricevitore a 2,4Ghz o attraverso la connessione bluetooth. La massima prestazione audio la si ottiene mediante la connessione cablata USB dove il DAC integrato può arrivare fino a 24 bit/96 KHz. Presentano un microfono staccabile di qualità .Dal punto di vista software le cuffie sono gestite dal software di Corsair iCUE che nonostante sia basilare nella gestione delle stesse non mi ha creato nessun problema di sorta.Le cuffie sono concepite per uso gaming e come tali vanno intese. In tale veste a mio avviso sono cuffie ottime con una giusta equalizzazione e un’eccellente performance acustica. Sono dotate dell’elaborazione 7.1 (software) che mi sembra più una travata di marketin che altro, quando attivata dona al suono percepito maggior spazialità , ma dire che è surround ce ne vuole…A conti fatti sono da acquistare? Direi ni….I pregi sono:- Costruzione solida ed impeccabile con un design sobrio ed elegante (non sono per intenderci le classiche cuffie plasticose e tamarre), anche gli RGB sul logo Corsair (visibile per microforatura dell’alluminio) è stato concepito al fine di non essere invasivo o fastidioso alla vista.- Praticamente compatibili con qualsiasi dispositivo in commercio (USB, Wireless, Jack, Bluetooth)- Ottime performance in ambito gaming, accettabili/nella media in ambito musicale (in parte migliorabile giocando con le equalizzazioni)- Assolutamente nessun tipo di ronzio in qualsiasi modalità voi le mettiate.I contro sono:- Prezzo non proprio popolare (parliamo di 200 euro circa)- Batteria non sostituibile (e si sa che le batterie non sono eterne e altri competitor offrono la possibilità di sostituirle)- Padiglioni non proprio grossi, quindi occhio se avete orecchie o testa grosse.Tirando le somme, se avete un ecosistema Corsair e volete mantenere tale brand anche per le cuffie di meglio su questa marca non troverete e avrete delle cuffie che vi daranno molta soddisfazione in ambito gaming, su qualsiasi piattaforma voi le inseriate. Hanno una spiccata propensione gaming, quindi io non le consiglierei per un ambito musicale o misto.

Une des premières choses quâon ne peut que constater au déballage du casque, câest la qualité qui transpire du produit. Les finitions sont impeccables avec ces matériaux dominantes aluminium, rien ne dépasse, les angles sont chanfreiné, les cordons en câbles tressés avec armatures aluâ, pochette de transport magnétique, clef usb tout respire le haut de gamme.Au niveau du design on a bien plus lâimpression de sâoffrir un casque hifi dâune grande maison de Son, quâun casque gaming. Et câest pour moi son atout majeur ! Poser sur un coin de table ou sur un support casque on est à 1000 lieues du casque rouge/noir style super transformeurs avec des biseau et des coupes dans tout les sens. Merci ! enfin, un produit gaming (mais pas que) adulte et classieux. On notera également un éclairage RGB compatible ICECUE très discret que je vous conseil personnellement de désactiver. Le design du casque ce suffit à lui même et vous pourrez atteindre plus facilement lâautonomie annoncée par le constructeur de 20h en sans fil.Son premier point fort câest son micro amovible détachable, au vue du design du casque câest vraiment un plus de pouvoir lui laisser son style hifi et dâéquiper son casque du micro au besoin. Et oui jouer ne veut pas toujours dire multijoueur coopératif, merci. La qualité de la capture est très bonne pour un casque micro, le diamètre de celui-ci est appréciable, une diode lumineuse vous indique si la capture est active ou non. Et vous trouverez également directement sous la perche un bouton pour éteindre lâenregistrement de votre voix. Tout y est sur ce point.Pour la qualité de retranscription sonore, le son est neutre et dans les médiums. Ce qui permet dâavoir un son plus vrai/naturel, les amoureux des basses et grave à gogo type Beats et compagnie ni trouveront pas leur compte câest certain. Mais nâen déplaise le son est plus vrai quâun casque dopé Et tronqué aux basses et aux graves.Malgré les titres marketing casque 7.1 etc sachez que les 3/4 des casques gaming « 7.1 » sont des simple casques STEREO et le Virutoso SE ne fait pas exception, un logiciel/firmware sur votre pc va sâoccuper de vous « simuler » une retranscription audio 360 voila pourquoi vous ne pourrez pas bénéficier de cet ajout autre part que sur PC câest à savoir, le Virtuoso reste pour moi un casque PC avant tout. Oubliez le 7.1 sur votre PS4, votre Switch ou tout autres périphériques que votre Ordinateur. La qualité de cette simulation dépend donc de la maitrise du fabricant et cela varie grandement en fonction de la marque. Pour notre casque la simulation de Corsair est plutôt bonne même si elle nâégalera pas le 7.1 Dolby Atmos achetable sur le windows store pour quelques dizaines dâeuros. Ãquipé de cette option le son est magnifié en jeux vidéo ou en écoutent de films/séries ou vous pourrez apprécier des subtilitées et des nuances de sons imperceptibles en haut parleur par exemple. Même si ce gapâ de qualité est apporté par un tiers elle nâempêche pas de propulser la qualité globale du produit à un très bon niveau général. Le 7.1 maison Corsair est désactivable dâun click sur le logiciel ICECUE et se désactive automatiquement avec lâactivation du Dolby Atmos par exemple pratique.On notera des petits plus très agréables comme la voix off du casque qui vous indiquera la recharge du casque, lâactivation ou la coupure du micro etc. Option désactivable selon vos préférences. Le Virtuoso SE comptera également sur une molette réglant le son intégrée sur le casque vous permettant en jeux de régler votre volume et également de faire apparaitre le play/pause/ou changement de piste audio windows dans votre application plein écran, pratique si vous écoutez de la musique ou une video en fond par exemple super ! Un indice avec barre de batterie peut également être intégré à la barre des taches et une diode lumineuse sur le casque vous indique le niveau dâautonomie restant. Du haut de ces 20h environ soyons clair pour un joueur lambda lâutilisation en sans fil est quasiment permanente avec des recharges en fin dâutilisation.Pour les puristes du son, vous noterez bien sur quâune retranscription sans fil du casque sera toujours moindre à une écoute filaire. Si vous souhaitez le meilleur audio possible brancher votre câble fournis. Mais pour une personne lambda le confort du sans fil apporte un plus sans pareil et on fera volontier lâabstraction du fil.Bref, vous lâaurez compris le Corsair Virtuoso SE est un excellent produit qui nâest pas exempt de compromis mais qui permet dâavoir pour le prix des finitions rarement voir jamais vue sur ce marché et encore moins à ce prix, celui ci nâa peut être pas le meilleur audio du secteur mais encore une fois il se montre équilibré, plutôt juste dans sa retranscription et avec du Dolby Atmos celui ci passe clairement un cap. On lui reprochera peut être juste lâabsence dâun bluetooth 5.0 (pour le rendre vraiment HI-FI) ainsi que la présence dâune batterie amovible.
