The Corsair VOID RGB USB comes out swinging considering its price point. It has loud, punchy bass that does little to water down the clear mids and highs. The Dolby Surround gives a highly convincing and expansive virtual surround experience, giving that little extra boost to your gaming and movie enjoyment. The advantage of being a virtual sound solution, is that once you turn off the Dolby Surround, it provides decent stereo music playback also.



There are no real downsides to the VOID RGB USB though we will try to pick up on a few things to note. Firstly, there is no modularity, which means you are permanently stuck with a boom microphone attached and there is little versatility due to the hard-wired USB connector. Some would like to see a braided cable in place of the plastic cable, and others may prefer the use of PU/leatherette material on the earpads. Then we have to consider the competition about for the similar price. I have tried to avoid mentioning the HyperX Cloud 2 but it is increasingly difficult, especially as you can find it for less than the VOID RGB USB. Though Corsair's offering holds its ground as it does have features that you won't find on the Cloud 2 headset. The Dolby Surround is good, and the punchier bass may be something that those more gamer orientated will prefer. Not to mention the RGB lighting and the Corsair sails.

Corsair have nailed the gaming headset recipe with the VOID RGB USB. It has long lasting comfort, punchy drivers that supplies a top quality virtual surround experience, and is all wrapped up in a sleek design.
