Corsair Virtuoso Pro Headset Review

Rating: 8.5.

Corsair are back with another addition to their line up of headsets with the Virtuoso Pro. Featuring an open back design, 50mm custom graphene drivers and not a drop of RGB in sight, this headset is more akin to a pair of studio headphones. Can a company known for their gaming products successfully delve in to the world of professional grade audio gear and give users a great sounding experience?

Pros:

  • Very good sound quality.
  • Mature, studio headphone design.
  • Open backed design provides great sound staging and directional audio quality.
  • User replaceable ear cushions, speaker tags, headband cushion and Corsair name tag.

Cons:

  • No reinforcement through the top section of the headband.
  • Only average microphone quality.

KitGuru says: The Virtuoso Pro is a very good sounding set of headphones with a mediocre microphone. The mature design harkens to studio headphones from dedicated audio brands. Gaming performance was excellent and positional audio was pinpoint and accurate throughout the review. If you've never tried open backed headphones for gaming and are a fan of Corsair's products, then this may be a good place to start…
