I know what a good DAC (Digita-Analogue Converter) sounds like, and I know what a crappy one sounds like. Music is probably the hardest source material to be objective about when it comes to the listening experience -- everyone has their opinion, but almost nobody but studio rats really "get it" in terms of true flat response. Do these have perfect response? No. It's just not hyped sound -- there's no built in "smiley face" EQ or any nonsense coloring the sound. Well, actually, there is, but it's made to flatten the output as well as it can -- and it does. People complain about "harsh highs" listening to music with this headset...THEIR SOURCE MATERIAL IS LOW QUALITY! Of COURSE an over-compressed MP3 file is going to sound TERRIBLE on any halfway decent DAC. Throw in a good recording of something recently done on a CD or something of equal quality (nice M4A at 256kbps or equivalent) and you're golden...

Quite impossible to do as I own many headphones. I have Bose noise canceling, Sure In-Ear, Grado's, Sony's and more. After reading tons of reviews, and very few reviews on the Corsairs it was a difficult choice. The main draw to the corsairs was the fact that corsair designed these headphones specifically for gaming and music listening. Go visit their website and watch their video. It is quite convincing... So I took the gamble and went for them. ** For Music ** When first installing them and listening I was quite disappointed... But wait! Duh... mixer. What a world of a difference. And mind you that the mixer alone must be adjusted for all kinds of music. If you just set it to one setting and listen to all sorts of genre's then you are in for bad listening. -- Windows 7 -- Go into your settings: Hardware =>...

Divens (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Corsair CA-HS1NA Gaming Audio Series HS1 USB Gaming Headset (Personal Computers) I compared the Corsair HS1NA headphones against my Audio Technica ATH-M45 and a pair of American Audio HP 550's. I primarily use these as headphones and did not thoroughly test the microphone capabilities.The Pros: I immediately noticed how comfortable the Corsair headphones are to wear. The tension isn't too tight, and the velvet covered ear pieces are very soft. They wear snug enough to do a good job isolating the audio but do not feel too tight like many other noise isolating headphones. These can easily be worn for hours on end - this is not something I can do with my Audio Technica's or the American Audio's. Sound quality is very, very good for this price range of headphone. I was impressed with how honest the playback was on my reference tracks with all settings baselined. Recording aside, I found the control panel and it's variety of spacial and EQ settings very cool. The mixer section allows you to mix in from 3 sources - Wave, Software Synth, and... Read more |
