    Would be the perfect headset, if only it would not hurt...

    The Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE looks great, very stable, noble, even has its own carrying case. Even the cables are refined. I have never seen such a beautiful and luxurious headset! But unfortunately...

    It said with
    small ears and heads it would not be the case that it would start to hurt. Since I have a small head and small ears, I thought nothing more of it and ordered the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE. I was willing to spend a lot of money because I like quality and I had seen a lot of reviews. But unfortunately they started to hurt after several hours. They press against the ears and head until it becomes unbearable and you have to pull them off.
    If the ear cups were a little larger or oval-shaped and not round, this headset would be perfect.
    I've done some research for a solution: many go to a 3D printer and get bigger/higher Ear Cups printed or buy the 100cm fluffy Ear Cups through Amazon and replace them. I just think it's a shame that you already pay so much for these headphones and then have to buy additional elements and and tinker with them.

    Overrated headset for the price!

    The Corsair Virtuoso is I think much overrated. The workmanship and the design (would have nevertheless rather seen good plastic instead of metal on the outer casing because of the weight ...) is top! The range and battery life is also super good for a wireless headset. The microphone is also a good microphone, if not the best in a wireless headset. However, the sound quality bothers me as well as the wearing comfort. The sound quality I find is okay, but not what you actually expect from a 200+ CHF headset! E.g. as a comparison the Beyerdynamic MMX300 Gen 2: It sounds much better than the Corsair Virtuoso and you can locate the opponents in games with the MMX300 much better (7.1 I found with the Virtuoso only a fun feature without advantage). The wearing comfort is also *much* better with the MMX300 Gen2. After time, the Corsair headset presses on the head (I think because of the heavy weight), the ears get warm as well as the inside of the headset arrives at the ear. The Beyerdynamic headset is by no means light, but still noticeably lighter. The MMX 300 also has the advantage: The weight is very well distributed to different places. The head does not hurt after several hours of wearing, nor are my ears warm.
    I can only advise you if wearing comfort and sound quality is more important to you than wireless: Go for the Beyerdynamic MMX300 Gen 2! The surcharge of about 50 CHF is well worth it! Do not make the same mistake as I did.
    If the headset was in the price range of 100 CHF, I could recommend it.
