Title: One of the best open back headsets/headphones!
Review: Pros:Excellent build qualityExtremely comfortablePhenomenal soundstage, punchy and tight, accurateBroadcast quality microphoneCan be used with or without micEase of useCons:Braided cables allow movement and abrasive noise to pass through into sound and micMic Mute toggle is not easy to get toOn the heavier side for open back headsetsTop padding could have a bit more paddingPrice is not attractiveNeeded an(other) open back design headphone for gaming/work. Decided on the Virtuoso Pro because supposedly these were one of the best reviewed open back headset next and similarly compared to the pc38x (which I had). Virtuoso Pros are extremely comfortable, build quality is excellent, and its soundstage is phenomenal. The mic quality is great, they like to say “broadcast quality”, but I will say that heavy breathers and plosives emphasizers, beware because mic is sensitive, but it’s a good thing for sound quality. Speaking of mic sound quality, the braided design of the wires allow more sounds to be picked up, and I thought these sounds from my wires rubbing against my shirt or me touching it with my arm or controller were just passing through into the headphones, but it also passed through the mic and you could wear the annoyances in microphone playback recordings. It doesn’t bother me too much because I have the Virtuoso Pro plugged into my waveXLR which in turn allows me to use my Rode Mic as a dedicated microphone. And VSTs allow me to set thresholds so that sound pickup is limited. I love and need open back designed headsets/headphones. Yes, they allow external noise to leak in and out, but with two young toddlers in the house, I am not afforded the luxury to “block out noise” so it’s good that I can still hear them cry or yell if they need something. I just wished that they were priced significantly lower. $200 is knocking at audiophile territory, but $150, which they are currently at as of writing this review is much more attractive. $100-150 is the sweet spot, only because that’s where the pc38x usually sits at and these two are relatively speaking the best open back gaming headsets.

Title: Best Multi Device Headset
Review: Summary: This headset allows me to connect to my work laptop, my personal desktop, and my audio interface at the same time with audio coming through simultaneously from all sound sources with no need to swap anything. Also upgrading it with some WC replacement ear cups and headband wrap to resist pleather wear and increase comfort, and add some personalization, is worth it 200%The long version:I work hybrid, so some days at home, some in office. When I am work from home, I work on a laptop that connects to my personal monitors. My personal desktop also goes into my monitors, so I can switch between sources if I have both going at the same time.My original headset, Corsair RGB Void Pro had a little dongle that broke because I had to constantly move the dongle back and forth between my PC and my laptop if I wanted to use either or. I did get a replacement dongle, but I needed a better solution because this could happen again and eventually Void Pro dongles will be harder to come by.I eventually discovered the Corsair Virtuoso RGB XT. It's wireless, it has its own dongle (which can handle up to 4 wireless devices), it also has bluetooth, and it can become wired through USB or 3.5mm jack. The bluetooth was what I was here for, but I got so much more.After getting the headphones, I was able to clear my PC case front USB ports (the Void Pro dongle, a micro usb, and another usb c cable which has built in velcro to bundle and set aside. My mouse wireless dongle is still there but might be possible to remove too). The game changing feature which I did not expect was that the dongle audio, the bluetooth audio, and the 3.5mm audio could all be played at the same time. I don't have to worry about flipping between sources or checking to see which one of the three is active, none of that. I can be on my personal computer, I can be on my work computer, and I can (if I wanted to) be connected to my audio interface recording guitar, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. That avoids any concerns about anything wearing down and breaking, I can keep the Virtuoso dongle safe behind the computer, and I have the option of being wired or wireless. I can have all the cakes and eat them all too. It. Is. Glorious.So if you love having flexible, streamlined, and cleaned up work spaces, ESPECIALLY if the work spaces are separate stations but occupy the same space (like my work laptop, my personal desktop, and my audio interface do), this is the clearcut winner.The headphones themselves, so many people talk about the specs and performance, and Dolby Atmos. Just go look up a few Tech Youtubers' video reviews on them. They are all say these headphones are pretty good. The mic is apparently a miracle and the best in this category, so that's pretty nice (AND IT IS REPLACEABLE, AND REMOVABLE TOO. WHAT EVEN). Can't speak to battery life since mine are new.Oh yeah, final note. Do replace the stock ear cups. Get the ones from a brand called WC because they are deeper, bigger, made of fabric and not pleather like the stock ones, and they have greater comfort supposedly (I haven't used the stock ones. I immediately used the replacement ones out of the box). I also got a band to go around the top of the headset from WC to protect the pleather on the top from wearing and flaking off. I'd recommend you do the same. There are also patterns you can choose from to give your headset some personality.Overall, big win in all directions, these headphones. I would strongly recommend getting those WC ear cups and band set. Worthy upgrade to an already amazing headset

Review: These headphones are awesome. The Virtuoso Pro's have significantly better build quality than headphones that cost over twice as much (I know because I own HD600s). Many of the parts on these headphones are also user changeable, so it's easy to replace components that wear out. They even look great. I expect them to last an exceptionally long period of time - which is great because I hate replacing stuff because the tiniest thing broke on it and it's unrepairable. Hyper-capitalism sucks.The headphones sound great. Don't let Reddit reviewers make you think otherwise. No, these headphones won't make you feel like God himself has connected directly to your ear to pump in melodious tunes he composed in his spare time. If you're the kind of person who collects headphones for a hobby, who purchases wired headphones that cost over $700, has spent an equal amount of money on a DAC, or who spends hours and hours EQing their headphones to get the perfect sound - these are probably not for you. For the rest of us mortals who just want to play video games or listen to music with minimal fuss, with good sound, and a microphone, these headphones are fantastic right out of the box. If you want, you can EQ them and they'll sound even better. But honestly, you're probably not going to notice that the explosion from the air strike you called down in the name of spreading freedom across the galaxy sounds SLIGHTLY warmer and muddier than the theoretical perfect headphone. You're going to be too busy promoting democracy with your bullets. And at the end of the day, that's what counts.Same goes with the microphone. Should you narrate Planet Earth season 4 with these? No. Will your buddies hear you scream for a revive? Yes, clearly.I've seen people complain about the microphonics of the wire. Yes, when the wire rubs on your clothes, you can hear it just a bit. If you're a professional or an enthusiast who needs total silence - again these aren't the headphones for you. If you're just some person who wants to hear some tunes, watch some videos, or pwn some noobs, you're not going to care.Comfort wise - this is subjective depending on the shape of your head and your preferences. I can wear these for a couple of hours at a time before I begin to notice them, but this is the case with all headphones for me. For reference, I find these to be much more comfortable than the AudioTechnica M50s, but less comfortable than my HD600s.Cheers.

Review: Compre estos audífonos junto con unos Beyerdynamic DT 990 Edition 32 Ohms, ambos son de diseño abierto, y las principales diferencias o similitudes serían las siguientes:- El precio de ambos esta dentro del mismo rango, los DT 990 cuestan al rededor de un 20% menos.-En cuanto calidad de construcción ambos son excelentes, son muy rígidos y de bueno material, adicional a esto los Corsair incluyen una funda rígida para su transporte, mientras que los DT 990 incluyen una funda suave. Debido a esto, en cuanto a portabilidad los Corsair son mejores por la rigidez de la funda, ya que los podrías meter a una mochila a maleta sin miedo a que se dañen, aun así, existen fundas rígidas para loas DT 990 que se venden por separado.-Los Corsair incluyen dos cables desmontables, uno con micrófono, el cual es como el de la mayoría de audifonos "Gamer", es decir, no tiene nada de especial ni se compara con cualquier micrófono condensador barato. Una desventaja de ambos cables, es la textura, ya que al rosar con la ropa se produce un ruido que de alguna manera se transmite mediante los audífonos y puede llegar a ser un poco molesto. Por otro lado, los DT 990 no tienen micrófono y el cable no se puede desconectar, pero este no produce ningún ruido al rosar con la ropa.-En cuanto a comodidad, los Corsair al tener las copas de tela, son más frescas y cómodas que cualquiera de vinipiel que usan la mayoría de audífonos, y la compresión de la diadema no es mucha, por lo que son cómodos al usarse durante unas 2 o 3hrs, sin embargo, después de este tiempo ya comienzan a molestar un poco. Por otro lado, los DT 990 son igualmente de tela, pero de textura similar al terciopelo, la cual es mucho más suave y fresca que los Corsair, y en cuanto a presión de la diadema, al ser la versión "Edition", no se siente ninguna incomodidad incluso en periodos de más de 7 o 8hrs de uso, son igual de cómodos desde que te los pones hasta que te los quitas.-Por último, respecto a la calidad de Audio, indiscutiblemente los DT 990 son mucho mejores que los Corsair, lo cual es algo evidente debido a la experiencia en el mercado del audio que ambas marcas tienen, ya que estos audífonos de Corsair son los primeros Open back que la marca ha producido, por lo que aún les falta mucho por mejorar, mientras que Beyerdynamic llevan bastantes años en este mismo mercado de los audífonos HiFi.Finalmente, para concluir, si buscas unos audífonos de diseño abierto, muy cómodos para usar durante muchas horas sin parar, con muy buena calidad de audio para música, películas o videojuegos y sin necesidad de amplificador, buena construcción y sin salirte del rango de los 3,500 a 4,000 pesos MXN, sin duda la mejor opción son los DT 990.
