The editors didn't like

  • No ability to change from stereo to virtual surround sound except via software
  • Voice changer options are gimmicky
  • No travel case included
  • Extremely forward mids and highs in default setup
  • Bass is less than expected from 50mm drivers...
  • Sound control panel difficult to use for beginners
  • Adjustable boom for mic a bit bulky
  • No control over anything but volume/ mic mute without alt-tabbing out of game
  • No control over amping up rear speaker sounds (desirable to make sure enemy footsteps sneaking up behind you are heard over gunfire in FPS games)
  • Bulky
  • A shining example of industrial design this ain't.
  • Needs frequent settings adjustments to get optimal experience
  • Low mic volume
  • PC only

  • At a price of Rs. 4,999, you might say it’s a wee bit expensive, but the quality that it delivers is worth every single penny you’ve spent on it. Right from the moment you wear it, till the instant you take it off, you’re left with a smile on your face...

  • Potentiel des transducteurs 50 mm, Spatialisation 7.1 efficace / DSP, Port très confortable / robuste, Possibilité de réglages audio
  • Unique connectique USB, Télécommande éloignée / câble très long, Design quelconque / pilotes vieillots, Basses discrètes par défaut
  • Pas la peine de tourner autour du pot pendant des heures, avec le HS1 Corsair a manifestement réussi son entrée sur le marché de l'audio. Le casque micro s'adresse avant tout aux joueurs, mais pas uniquement. Sa très bonne prestation audio, tant naturelle...
