      The sound is good, both in games and when listening to music. You're definitely not going wrong for the price. best regards

    I lost my shit trying to get this to work, make sure you really jam that double connector into the mic good. Is a slick design, comfy and blocks out the sound, nice

    Hi ECPU 🥰👋 great video once again 👍🍻. The mic sounds awesome (regardless of the price!!!) audio from what’s described is how I personally like my headphones / headsets tuned … for fast action fps titles yes you need the details such as reclipping, footsteps, creaks in floorboards etc and a little punch in the bass for the intense explosion 💥 and fight scenes as well in open world titles where surroundings and elemental effects such as wind 🌬 💨 add that immersion and touch of realty to the game. Imo Corsair have made a great product here! I personally own a pair of Corsair HS70SE’s, Senheisser x58 Jubilees, Penrose X and a few more budget friendly IEMs and I love the sound each has 🥰🤯

    I got this headset this week and I play on PS5, when I connected it to my PS5 controller and joined my friends party to try it out it had a horrible echo, when I used the adapter and plugged it into my PS5 system the echo was gone, I want to use it connected to my controller though so is there anything I have to do?

  • @monadolifesaver5613

    I can't get the volume to work.
    I play it on switch and it's weak.
    I use it on ipad with discord and all outside audio is weak.
    Following using discord it now has deafened all volume down quite a bit.
    I can't change anything with the headset to make its volume cap increase to normal.
    My ipad tells me the volume level is too high for my safety, but it's less than half of what it was before using discord voice chats for the first time with it.
    They say it's "discord certified" but I can't hear my friends half the time.
    I can barely hear ibxtoycat yelling about new Minecraft features it's so bad.
    WHAT DO I DO? If it requires a PC to fix the volume cap, I can't do it. I don't have a PC.
    I'm in extreme mental anguish all because I can't work this headset at all. Therno feasible way to work it anyway.
