The HS80 has one of the best microphones too. I also replaced my ear cups with a different material on Amazon. I don’t like how the icue software doesn’t show battery percentage, only low medium or high, and it doesn’t last as long as it did when I got it a year and a half ago - but it’s a lightweight headset with pretty good sound, and a great microphone for discord or taking with teammates

Wait till the hinge buckle cracks. As much as possible do not stretch it widely when wearing. If only they made that part metal then I could say that its a perfect headset for me so far. But no.

I used the HS 80 Max. Icue is the biggest pile of garbage software I ever dealt with and rendered the headset useless without it. I went back to the beyerdynamic mmx 300.

My sister had one and let me use it when she was being sponsored by Logitech, and I really loved them. I play War Thunder a lot and the surround sound on it just worked really well for me. Much more than the Logitech G733 I have been using. Unfortunately the charging port just broke and came off her HS80. She also really liked it and now has gotten an Logitech G PRO X 2. I just ordered the HS80 Max for myself on prime days on amazon (as the G733 elastic band is loose and it hurts my head) should arrive tomorrow :)

I use the Corsair HS80 MAX. It has long and rock solid range, great audio and comfort, and a very good build quality. The mic is decent, too. I don't think I will ever move away from this headset because of the range. I can use them while the PC/PS5 is in anothe room and it never looses connection. No other headset I have tried offered the same range.

Hmmmmm it’s not too bass heavy. It’s smooth but has presence. It’s not overpowering and leaves the mids quite clean for the most part. Explosions and other effects sound great to me.

OMG_NoReally • 5 months ago

I agree on the sound department. The mids are too low and the high end just doesn’t have enough detail. I did a comparison between the Corsair HS80 Max and the v4 Pro and the difference is massive to a point where I am shocked that such expensive headsets are tuned like this. The default presets are terrible. Low midrange performance, barely any detail, narrow soundstage and muddy sound. I have tried to EQ it but I simply cannot make them match the HS80 Max. Really disappointed because I do enjoy the haptics quite a damn lot.

I don't know what your talking about, my hs80 keeps breaking every 6 months, every 6 months corsair sends me a new. I'm on the 3rd one right and this summer again I'm going to have to replace them. The battery life sucks, has less then 12 hours of life if lucky, the connection is very poor, and the earmuffs break off after 6 months. I wouldn't recommend the hs80 to anyone, I would personally stay away from corsair, and go with logitech instead.

The twesting mechanism is set to twist only 90 degrees, but what I experienced after couple months of usage is loosening and twesting more than 90 degrees. On my first pair it twisted 360 degrees both ways. In general stay away from corsair products if there is an alternative like logitech. Yes even I sometimes buy corsair products here and there, becuase there isn't any competitors, but I make sure to use my warranty, and switch my product every a year or so.

These are the most frustrating headphones I have ever had. THE GOOD: The sound quality is the absolute best I have used in any gaming headset. they are very comfortable and the metal construction gives me hope for a long lasting set. Flip-to-Mute mic is my jam and i love that feature. THE BAD: THE IS NO SIDETONE and iCue causes massive mic issues. First, you can not hear yourself at all when you're talking in to the mic. It's seriously like talking with your fingers in your ears.. This issue has plagued this line from Corsair for years and they will not fix it. Support literally told me to spend over $350 to get this basic feature. They said the sidetone on this model is "low". There's no setting that changes it I tried everything. The mic itself works pretty good, but I can watch the iCue software lower the mic volume by itself with out any input on my part. Nearly all of my computer's components are Corsair products and I love them, but these headphones are unbelievably frustrating and am returning them as soon as i can find a decent replacement.

I have the HS80 wired, and it's great, I just hate the wire, so I tried the MAX for a few days and returned it. It was amazing being able to get snacks without taking it off or laying in bed without needing to change headphones, but the sideline sucked on it.

Meh sound that requires an EQ, bad sidetone, and forced iCue is awful. Comfy, good looking, and very well built though. Mic is solid too after the firmware update. Can definitely do much worse Moved to the Turtle Beach Atlas Air, which sound better (they are open back so not really a fair comparison), have a better mic, and actual clear sidetone, settings save to the headset so no forced software, and somehow are even more comfortable. Don’t feel as “premium” but haven’t looked back.

I had this with my HS80 Max’s and thought it was just them, but then the same exact thing happened on my Turtle Beach wireless ones I got to replace them. Turned out that using a USB extension cable to bring the dongle closer to the headphones was actually the cause of it. Having it plugged in directly to my motherboard fixed the issue for me, even though my PC is hidden behind my TV. At least on my Turtle Beaches. Don’t have the HS80 Max anymore to test

I dont know why I havent tried the corsair headsets until now. I always stick with corsair products whenever it comes to pc gaming gear and components, the past 10 years Ive been trying to stick with one maker cause I dont want a bunch of proprietary software that is required for these devices. My motherboard and GPU are made by Asus and they have the absolute worst software Armoury Crate that is required for them, but i made myself stick with them and get Asus pc gaming gear so they can all function from one application

I was wondering about that cause i was thinking of switching out the cotton ear cushions, which feel amazing, with leather or something that doesnt get that dirty with continuous use. I can def understand how it can be a problem like that, im not necessarily a sweaty person but we all have stuff like hair and skin oil that smear on the cushions/headset normally. Thats why I usually get leather cushions for my headsets if they dont already have them

Just to add some clarity: It sounds like he's plays on pc, with a literal separate microphone. Gaming headphones are more of a necessity for console gaming - it's a microphone and headphone in 1.They are generally speaking worse quality than if you bought either separately. PC allows you the luxury of separating the 2. Seems like he already bought a microphone, so there is no need to buy a "gaming" headset. You're better off buying normal real headphones from sennheiser or something similar and get significantly higher quality for the same price as a "gaming headset". The only caveat is if he ALSO games on console and switches between the 2. If that's the case, then maybe a gaming headset might be needed. Yes, there should be "mic muting" features on the the gaming headsets but double check. I own the corsair hs80s and I can mute the mic on pc so I use my real microphone and then if I play on ps5 I use the headset mic.

I personally don’t recommend Razer, their stuff doesn’t last anymore. I went through 2 pairs of the kitty headphones in less than 2 years, they both started to deteriorate after 6 months with the pink paint and leather peeling off. Sound quality wasn’t great either and got worse, it had that crackly noise and constant hissing which was more noticeable on lower volume. Save your money if you want something that lasts. Definitely recommend Corsair though, I switched to the HS80 and they’re amazing. Miles better in quality. It’s just a shame Corsair doesn’t do cute colours. 😭

It depends. Open-back headphones with a vmoda boom mic are good for Audiophiles. However they also have some cons like significant audio bleed, they're somewhere between closed-back and speakers. Good brands that are recommended a lot are Phillips, Sony, Audio Technica, Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic. However, closed-back headsets can be just as good if you aren't really an audiophile and don't care too much about pitch-perfect accuracy. Plus there's a few cheaper decent options even with the "gamer" branding. Good brands here are a little more difficult, it's best to recommend good headsets rather than good brands. With that said, here are a few recommendations that I've been looking at myself: * HyperX Cloud Alpha - sturdy build, decent sound, a good mic, only problem is "leather" flaking off but that happens with most headsets/headphones. The most budget friendly option IMO. * Corsair HS80 - decent build, good sound, very good mic, fabric so less prone to flaking/peeling. Decently cheap too. * Steelseries Arctis Nova 7 - good build, good sound, so-so mic, comfortable headband and fabric so less prone to flaking/peeling. A little more expensive but not breaking the bank. I personally prefer wired headsets and I'm not an Audiophile. HyperX Cloud Alphas served me well for years now, but I am looking to get a pair of Corsair HS80's later this year.

The Corsair HS80 has one of the best mics I’ve ever heard and the audio quality is good to. I love how clean and simple it is visually so I don’t look like a gamer on my work meetings. The AI noise cancelling is also amazing if you don’t mind downloading a 2gb file for it to work. I can literally have my wife cooking and banging around 10ft from Me and no one hears a peep in my work meetings. For around $120 with good wireless and battery life it beats out every $200-300 headset I’ve had and I’ve owned it for 2 years now

Yup the wireless one 😀 People think I’m in a recording studio or something when I join a chat. I’m with you. I used to hate wireless headsets and have tried many to utter disappointment. It’s also got the most comfortable head strap I’ve ever used for longer sessions and isn’t too heavy but still has great battery life. A family member bought me this headset as a gift as I couldn’t bear wasting money on one again myself. Goes to say I was impressed. I’ve had it 2-3 years now and it’s still working great

I used to be big on separate headphones plus mic setup. But I wanted to move away from wired, so I picked up a pair of XM3s and ended up having endless connectivity problems. They were the only bit of tech that I ever returned for a refund that wasn't an RMA issue. Ended up saying fuck it and going for a headset since I needed a mic for work as well and a headset was just the best wireless option. Ended up with the Arctis 7s from SteelSeries but later picked up Corsair HS80s and have never looked back.

I personally think HS80's are garbage. The sound is horrible, sounds all muddy and shit the only decent thing is the mic it's also very uncomfortable. Got a studio headphones after discovering how garbage they are, couldn't be more happy after that. If you're not sensitive to sound quality, sure go ahead get them. But if you're sensitive to sound quality like me you're gonna hate them. 2/10 headset at best. Probably gonna get downvoted, but just saying the truth.

One question I have is does the audio cut out? I have the HS80 and in wireless mode the audio will randomly cut out. It comes back but I have tried everything to get it to not. I have read it could be due to 2.4GHz wireless networks but not much I can do about that. Was considering going for these but didn't want to run into the same issue.

I have tried everything short of turning off my 2.4GHz network, can't do that as I have a lot of IoT devices plus there are my neighbors 2.4GHz bands to worry about. Nothing else I have from Corsair wireless (mouse) does that so it must be the channel the headset runs on. If only we could change that on the headset.

At the time I did my research, i was looking for 2.4ghz wireless, high mic quality, comfort and good range. The Razer blackshark V2 pro 2023 turned out to be the winner for me, the hs80 were falling a bit short, and the razer ones turned out to be amazing tbh. I think the only negative I can think of is the pads getting a bit hot, and if you skip on the software, it's amazing really.

I came here to see if someone else was having this problem. Corsair support sent me a new headset and it had the same issue so it's not a hardware issue. For me, whenever there is a lull in sound in a game (goes quiet), the headphones",switch off" until their is sound again, but there is a delay in that sound so you miss the first second or so. Sounds minor, but it's quite frustrating when a cut scene starts and you miss the first word .. but happens all the time, and Corsair has no idea why. It could be a windows issue, but then why does it happen only with this headset. Who knows

Every corsair headset I've owned has sounded great, but I found out the mic quality was so bad that I sounded like i was talking through a tin can on a string. I'll stick with my logitech headset. Love my corsair keyboard though. Wish icue would stop self destructing every few months

Eh, I used to feel this way but now I just want to be able to put on a headset with a mic and call it a day. Don’t get me wrong gaming headsets stupid expensive but I like the convenience. I have a pair of hd6xx and a Samson Q2U mic but now I just reach for my corsair hs80

Interesting, I love them best mic on any headset, sound got way better when i downloaded Dolby Atmos app and tweaked the equalizer. I can wear them the whole day, most of the time i forget i have them on. Battery life is great to.

Have you tried putting the heads strap higher up, so that the headset sits a little lower? I noticed that I can have them at different heights and still fit me Pretty well. My strap is almost touching the head band that hold the headphones together. Otherwise maybe try to stretch them like have them around a pillow or something that is a little wider than your own head. Like walking in your shoes.
