Corsair Gaming Void Stereo

Overview

At the end of the day this headset ranks up there pretty high for me when it comes to gaming headsets. While it does not dethrone the Kingston HyperX Cloud II it is very close. The headset is selling for $89.99 at our favorite online retailer, which is only $20 more than the VOID Stereo headset.

The Corsair Gaming Void Surround delivers good sound quality while being comfortable for hours of use. The ear cups can get a bit warm after a while, specially if you live in a warm climate. Although, I could see this as a side benefit during cold days...

I very much enjoyed my time with the Corsair Void headset. It might be at the lower end of the new Void range as it does not featuring RGB lighting or wireless functionality, but the sound quality is fantastic for the price point. It is comfortable and...

The design of the Void is very much an improvement on Corsair's preceding headset families – the aluminium shell makes them nice and sturdy and they're very comfortable to wear. At £60, the pricing is also decent, but it doesn't help Corsair (or any...

The Void Surround is a well-made, capable and very comfortable headset with slightly more lively audio than the Void Stereo in some situations plus the boon of USB connectivity and Dolby 7.1 surround effects too. It's a somewhat basic design, like its...

When it comes to gaming headsets it takes a lot to differentiate yourself from the sheer number of headsets that have already flooded the market, but with the VOID Surround Corsair have actually managed to do the unexpected and actually bring some...

Corsair has paved a new way with their void headsets and in our opinion they succeeded. The quality of the construction and comfort of the design is fine. The tuning is clearly meant for games; if you primarily want to listen to music, you'll...
