Personally i haven't used that headset, but i have used the corsair void pro before, and they were ok at best, but these might be better than those were. However, i would like to know if you are specifically looking for a wireless headset or not, and what your price point is so i can try and find a good headset for you, but i would look for reviews of that one first, see what others have said about it

There is much better out there.. Do you need 7.1 surround or stereo ?  Because for music listening you need a nice high quality HP's.  How much is it where you live at or are you US ?  I mean are you looking for premium, or just to get by and what not ?  It is in no way a audiophile headset and what not.

I've been using the HS70 as a heavy use daily driver since they were released. So far my issues with it is the ear-cups, volume roller, and the micro USB charger.

 

The ear-cups for me specifically didn't hold my ears off of the inside of the headphones. Additionally, they started tearing off 4 months into their life.

The Micro USB charger is more of an issue you're going to run into in general with any headset, but mine has started to develop loose connector syndrome like the VOID headset that preceded it.

The volume roller on mine has partially broken inside so going from low volume to a marginally higher amount will not do anything and then suddenly its full blast.

Beyond the above mentioned cons, the headset sounds absolutely crisp. I'm not an audio expert but the virtual 7.1 surround is reasonably accurate and the microphone is very good for the price point.

 

If you intend to use it for maybe 2-4 hours a day average then its a decent choice, however if you intend to use it as heavily as I have (5-10 hours daily), you would probably be better off forking over some more cash in exchange for the better reliability.
