      Update: Awful, i will return them today. The ear cups are round as you know and i didn't think it would be a problem but it sure is. The ear cups make contact with different points of my ears (and i have average ears) and it presses against them, but in other areas they just float and it doesn't make a seal which feels soooo bad.
      Another HUGE issue is that your ear makes full contact with the driver wall and due to the clamping force your ears just hurt no joke.This is because of the very thin earcups (they look thick but they're an illusion). You could probably prevent your ears from touching the driver wall by buing thicker earcups for $20 but your ear woull still be squashed by the narrow whole of the circular earcup which is awful (maybe if you had really small eqrs these could work idk). I was surprised and disappointed of how bad these feel straight out of the box.
      I still tried the sound and out of the box they sound flat but just install the software and use the EQ and they sound great actually. But it doesn't matter at this point cause i can't wear this sh, so i am returning them today.

    I have been using the RGB white for quite some time and have been very happy with them until I started having issues with them recently. Based on testing and an RMA, I think Atmos is to blame, though it worked fine for over a year... Maybe something in a new update freaked it out. These new ones are supposed to be officially Atmos compatible so I wonder what they changed to make them so versus the older models.

      I’ve only had the virtuoso so I can’t compare the two.
      My personal opinion on them is the sound quality is good, but not necessarily great. On PC they are pretty damn great if tweaked with the EQ and Dolby, BUT if you connect to PS or Xbox the sound tends to not be the best because the settings tend to default and no way to set up the EQ on consoles as the settings aren’t saved when switching platforms.
      Comfort wise, the headset is super comfortable, but do get toasted playing for several hours in California weather.

    I have similar headset. CORSAIR VIRTUOSO CARBON. For two years I was very happy. Then, iCUE stop working, only dongle can be detected. You can use them, sound and mike works on default settings. Windows resintalled, tested on 3 PC etc. Cheked many tips and tricks from support and other pages. Conclusion iCue is not supporting them currently, cant change RGB leds, cant change sound options - without configuration of sidetones headset is unsable for me. Another thing, eco leather on headband and ears dematerialized... Now its a pice of junk, looks like that and works like that. ps With corsair keyboards after 2years I also had many issues but its an another subject. All stuff looks great, works well, but only up to 2 years. I was a Corsair funboy, not anymore, its not a full premium product. Cheers.

  • @icandrive4
    @icandrive4 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If y'all still consider to upgrade the comfort by your own, then you definitely should buy some aftermarket ear padding, doesn't matter if its leather or velour. In my case I upgrade the normal Virtuoso with some velour earpads which are also twice as thick as the stock ones which you should completely forget about 'em cause they ain't made for human ears...
    Besides you will in all cases in general also upgrade the sound. I barely can say that you will get a much better base response if you consider to use it on pc at least over the USB C Kabel. Which also applys to the general sound of the Headset's drivers. If you gonna upgrade em with thicker ear cusion the sound stage won't just get better in base response, no, the sound stage itself is way more balanced in the mids and highs. You could potencially benefit of a wider soundstage in terms of listening to music, gaming or type of content consumption (in my oppinion) if you use the Headset like me on a Headphone AMP/DAC combo or stack. Then I could notice, how much potencial they barely thrown away which is kinda disappointing, because the base, like the drivers itself are really good and I'm sayin this simultaneously using the DT990 Pro and switching between the Virtuoso and the DT990 Pro

They're the only comfy headset for my big head and ears, and game/chat balance buttons right there on the side.

While astro sounds cinematic and bassy while still being able to hear direction, the Arctis pro wireless sounded so tinny and like $30 Walmart headphones, even after messing with EQ. I love my Astro A50s as well except the battery that can't be changed and the look.

      I have the Penrose. They are utter shit.
      Plus:
      1) Wireless quality with the dongle is relatively good, closer to wireless than with other headsets that claim to be hi-res wireless, but are actually only hi-res when wired.
      So-so:
      1) The mic is meh. It's not bad, it's not good, it's just meh. Better than the one in this video, worse than Sennheiser Game ZERO.
      2) Sound is flat and it has no EQ presets (***EDIT***: I didn't know this since it wasn't there on launch, but it looks like they did add presets). This might be a plus, depending on your preferences. (I do prefer a little bit more bass, which it's not at all capable of. Doesn't have that "oomf")
      Minuses:
      1) Wireless connectivity is horrible, the range is not enough to reach the end of my corridor, and connection is often lost when too near walls, or with liquids/metals in the way. Terrible.
      2) Battery life is 10~11 hours, charge time is 4~5 hours.
      3) Weak plastic body and weak internal connections mean it breaks very easily. In fact, it has broken, that's why I'm here. Second time, from nothing. If you ever hold them in your hands, you'll understand.
      4) Doesn't have LDAC, so only average quality over BT.
      5) Oversized band. I don't know anyone with a bigger head than mine, and mine is still only barely big enough for the Penrose to seat on properly. It still bothers me sometimes whenever it moves a little.

Does the headset have simultaneous bluetooth when using it wired or only while using the dongle? Can the RGB be turned off to make the battery last longer? Have Corair made this headset's mic less sensitive to mouth noises and background noise in the 3 years since this video? During the mic test in this video, I heard a little creaking of the mic, as if talking normally stresses the mic's capability to make the noise sound properly and not too loud. Are there popfilters that fit this headset's mic? Does it have an extention cable for the dongle? Since it's a premium headset, it should have active noise cancellation but it does not.

      Arctis 7 will sound worst since they are 40mm drivers and only 40khz, but they are MUCH MUCH MUCH more comfortable, trust me I switched from the Virtuoso RGB SE to the Arctis Pro wireless (basically same frame and comfort as the Arctis 7) and it was a world of difference, I wouldn't switch back for anything! Arctis 7 are good and much much cheaper than these scam headsets

      Hi I own Corsair viruoso se and to be honest they are not that good sounding, I compair them to other headsets I own wirelesly and wired; Razer Black Shark v2 wireless, Steel series 7 wireless, Logitech 933 wireless , Sennheiser 1000GSX DAC and Sennheiser Game Ones and GSP 600s, Senneheiser HD 660s, Audio Technica x50s and 40s with big leather earpads using an IFI dac/amp or >JDS Labs ATOM. Also i just purchased the Logitech Pro wireless headset. I can tell you that the Corsair Vituoso is an awesome built headset but really lets you down in the audio department compaired to all the other combos/headsets I mentioned. I have to agree with the others that mention A DAC/amp combo and a decent wired headset is best. if you are intent on wireless Though Steel series, Logitech pro wirelesss and the Black shark v2 pro wireless heasets sound much better for gaming and maybe music listening too than the Corsair Viruoso XT. You can also check out Zeos review on youtube and Gear seekers reviews they will say the same about this Corsair headset. Its ok If you dont compair it to anything else but I assure you there are better options out there. Listening to music on the Corsair Viruoso sounds muddy no matter how you try to EQ it. Hope thats helpfull.
      They are not amazing for gaming like the reviewers are telling you on youtube they are just good: The others Headsets I mentioned are much much better.
