Customer Ratings & Reviews

My son was thrilled to receive this as a gift. He loves them!

I’m glad I purchased these way better then any other headset I have had in the past

Much better than I expected them to be, very loud. 10/10 would recommend.

The Corsair Virtuoso XT is a premium-build lightweight headset built using aluminum so it should be able to withstand daily use. It is comfortable to wear for hours of gaming. Setup is super easy: just charge the headset using the included cable, plug in the receiver, and turn the headset’s operation selector to wireless mode. The only other thing to do is to download the iCUE software from Corsair’s website. This is an important step, as without the software the headset doesn’t seem to perform as well. My online gaming buddies told me I did not sound as good without the software but once I installed it they reported that I never sounded better. On PC, you’ll also want to install the Dolby Atmos app from the Windows Store. Sound quality is very good for a set of wireless gaming cans but I do wish the bass response was a little stronger. It’s not terrible by any means, but games with a lot of explosions and the Dolby Atmos “thunder” demos felt slightly muted compared to some of my other wireless headsets. However, the overall sound quality more than makes up for it. As far as gaming headsets though, these are arguably the closest I know of to audiophile headphones. Listening to some music was far more enjoyable through these than my other headsets I tested against. The quality from the mic is equally as impressive. Corsair advertises it as “broadcast-quality” and I admit it’s really good. The LED on the adjustable mic can indicate whether there is an issue with connectivity, or if you are on mute. The mic can also be detached when not playing a multiplayer title. When in wireless mode, the headset will automatically go to sleep after 10 minutes (adjustable in iCUE) and will wake if it’s picked up. A great feature for folks like me that never remember to turn anything off. The biggest feature this headset adds over the previous model is Bluetooth functionality and what is really neat is that you can listen to both your game source and Bluetooth audio at the same time. However, as far as I know there’s not a way to mute one or the other on the headset so you either have to mute chat in your game or subject your team to your conversation. There is separate volume control for Bluetooth so you can easily turn down your game or vice versa. I love this feature cause I can watch a bit of Youtube or something on my tablet while waiting in the lobby for the next match to start. The only downsides besides the bass are that there is not a separate channel for chat so that will have to be controlled in-game and then there is iCUE itself. Corsair confusingly offers a version 3 and a version 4 on their website. This headset doesn’t support version 3 and likewise my Corsair liquid cooling system doesn’t support V4! So I’m controlling my liquid cooling pump and fans through my motherboard software instead. I do however like that I can use multipoint technology with version 4 meaning I have one dongle for my headset and Dark Core RGB PRO mouse to share, and even better the dongle remembers the two devices when I switch between laptop and desktop!

No Game/Chat Volume controls Overall, out of all the wireless gaming headsets I own, this is my new favorite. It offers comfort, great sound quality out of the box, an impressive mic and the simultaneous Bluetooth feature is just icing on top!

Best headset for wanting to hear footsteps for your different games

Better than the HS80 and it's goofy headband strap. This still has the extendable ear muffs, I couldn't stand that HS80. Maybe my head's too big, but if you have the same issue, spend the extra cash on these.

Good mic and mic is crystal clear I recommend it.. it’s a

Great headphones.. sounds quality is phenomenal. Comes with a nice sleeve case.

Excellent headphones. The best of the best of the best Sr.

Two Thumbs Up. GREAT clear, quality and volume.Great price

I love them, but no matter what my friends always seem to think I sound quiet. Not all of them which is weird.

Would've been a 3 star rating if they were cheaper; however, I know they're not designed for the Xbox, but when connected to them with the 3.5mm wire, the mic never stops picking up feedback, and it also picks up low frequencies that it shouldn't, making it almost unbearable to listen to. Other than that, they do sound great if you know how to properly tune Dolby Atmos. Also, this might've just been my pair... but the battery always was blinking red even if I left it charging for hours, they never died on me but I never used them long enough without a charge in between.

My boyfriend is a big gamer and is very particular about the technology he uses and he’s been wanting a new headset for a while. So for Christmas I was fortunate enough to be able to get this for him as one of his presents. He absolutely loves it.
