Hs60 vs. Hs70

[Loch]

Hello all, I'm looking to get a headset and wondering which would be a good choice. In terms of budget, I want to stay below $90. The only reason why I want to stay with Corsair, is because nearly all my peripherals are Corsair and they have treated me well (except for my headset). My current headset is the Corsair Void RGB wireless and it's having charging/ quality issues (ear cushion came off, the mic arm broke, and the headset keeps shutting off, while it's plugged in).

Choices:

HS60- 7.1 Virtual Surround Sound - Wired - $50 USD.

HS70- 7.1 Surround Sound - Wireless - $80 USD.

Now, I understand that I'm comparing a wireless headset to a wired and the price difference is huge. From your personal experience, which is the better choice? Which has better sound quality and which will be better for the future (in terms of reliability and headset life). *If you have any of headsets to recommend, please comment below!

 

Thank you!

It isn't true surround sound on the more expensive one don't get fooled buy surround sound on headsets unless they have multiple drivers (speakers) in each ear cup then it could be surround sound otherwise it's just a marketing buzzword. I hear the wireless isn't good so just get that cheaper one it's not worth $30.

Check out Hardware Canucks. They do pretty extensive testing of wireless and wired headsets, so they have a good comparison between the different models.

Why not the $25 HS50? They're all physically the same headphone; the only thing that's different is the interface.
