BTW they also work great on Mac. Can use wireless, USB, and 3.5 on Mac. The wireless works just like on PS4, and the vol wheel takes control of the Mac vol bar, again they are great on Mac! PS: Sorry if I miss any comments today, a bit sick :(

Thanks for the review, so none of the settings are synced between the devices? No internal storage for side tone or EQ? Hm thats a real bummer. So side tone probably doesn't even work on a ps4?

[@Jess_2k]

Im so happy I found your G733 and Virtuoso reviews! I was so so torn between them and I think the Virtuoso won! Main thing that hit me was the RGBs on the G733 being a downside to glasses users.

[@imcrow6674]

ive had mine since around they got released and its been the most miserable experience of my life hope yours actually wound up working for you

[@apenet-]

DAAAMN that mic test was impressive! It's more natural-sounding than the 370 and the G Pro X Wireless.

Can you still get the surround sound on ps4/ps5 with these? If not, do you have another headset that would have it?

[@josemarin3076]

can you replaced the foam and if you do what you recommend to buy ?

[@jakeshaw1661]

Quick question. If I plug them straight into my ps4 out of the box does the rgb change colours? Or does the rgb change colours only on pc or Mac?

just found your channel and just got this headset.

I hope they help :)

[@blanca1199]

Does someone know if this version still has a better mic than the se?

[@diablobih]

I love the reviews mate. Could you maybe do some video about best gaming headset. Like best ones for a buck, all around if you get me what I'm saying. You've got a subscriber anyway :)

[@TheTechne]

thank you so much for the sub! and yeah I have a few vids planned like that. hope to get to them very soon.

[@Muzzymart_]

What do you lose 7.1surround sound on PS4 mad why?

[@dayman4152]

The top of the headset put more pressure on the top of my head then I would like. It's better if you move it foreword a bit, but it's making me wonder if I should return them tbh

[@TheBigb1973]

I'm looking for headphones that will blow me away while gaming on pc. I want loud and great surround. Wireless. Which do you recommend?

[@lexterslab8]

will it work if I plug it directly into a PS5 using the wired USB? and how will it sound?

[@nickreckhoff]

Hey Techne, I know this is an old video but would you suggest this headset or the arctis 7? I was set on this but heard it wasn't super comfy and that, mic quality and sound quality are my biggest things im looking into. Thanks and keep up the videos. Love your energy.

[@TheTechne]

I would go 7's all day. but the mic is a little better on these.

[@AlexanderPews]

Great review:) lots of info and very detailed. I have been looking for a new wireless headset coming from Hyperx CloudII, got one question, how was the 7.1 surround in games? Subscribed btw !

[@TheTechne]

surround sound on any headset is a joke, never base your purchase off that. they just adjust the eq.

[@AlexanderPews]

@@TheTechne I mean could you hear the directional sound well ? Because coming from CloudII I hope these are also "ok". Actually bought that headset cuz people said they could hear the enviroment around well thanks to the viritual surround sound. I was playing lots of R6 Siege and I could actually listen my way to where was footsteps, C4 etc. I just hope these also have that same "sense of feeling" if you know what I mean.

[@TheTechne]

@@AlexanderPews yeah for sure. the sound stage is very balanced, you really pick up footsteps well without bass/mids drowning them out

[@adamyounes6244]

@@AlexanderPews if u want sorround Sennheiser and Astro is the way to go, nothing legit beats them not even the sorround sound on the hyperx orbit s. The Corsair virtuose beats the logitechs sorround sound which was known for a rly good for awhile. Some people have said that the sorround sound is much more detailed when u use the USB c for the headset to activate the high frequency

[@TaserTaser]

@Techne do you think this is better than the Arctis 7??

[@daimaru03]

what is the difference between this and the SE version ?

[@xxmasterkillerxx1930]

Another great video

[@TheTechne]

thank you

[@Moon_Presence]

Getting this headset cause of your review.

[@tomcruise9448]

Hey, another great video man. Just a quick question if you have the time. How would describe the audio quality? Would you describe it as balanced? I bought a pair of Void pros the other day and they are already on the way back to amazon lol. The audio in FPS games seemed like I was underwater in a way. The bass seemed way off with the Voids. Was curious if these were any better in comparison. Thanks again man, you've got a great channel going here.

[@TheTechne]

7:00 now I also have the void pros, and I do enjoy them, buy these have a much more balanced stage, the bass isn't really muddy or over done, everything really stands out. you can also use icue to adjust your eq settings. so all in all compared to the void pro, I would say the vertuoso sounds much more balanced and natural

[@tomcruise9448]

@@TheTechne Alright great, thanks for the reply man. The Voids were really nice but for the games I play the audio just wasn't quite balanced enough for my taste. A real shame as I love Corsair as a brand. I'll look into this headset further, thanks again and I hope you're feeling better today 🤙

[@sebastianalvarado8348]

Can you used them on Xbox one ?

[@magic4l88]

You think this can be used with DAC?

[@emileift2850]

You made me buy the headset I'm so happy with it thanks. The earcups are heating my ears but it's no comparison to my old headset which made grilled steak out of my ears :)

[@carloveracruz501]

Would this be better than the cloud flight or the cloud flight s?

[@missesd.4489]

So there’s absolute no sidetone when using them on a PlayStation? 🥺 It’s so hard to find a good wireless headset with a proper mic and side tone without white noise.

[@vzinfamous]

Just got these for $100 off Facebook marketplace! Loving them

[@JustinPullin]

How's the volume hold up on PS4?

[@Wawasjohn]

Was the mic test done wired or wireless because mine doesn’t sound as good

[@JonahLuiz48]

I had the same dissatisfaction when I bought it as well but once I downloaded Icue to mess with the Ed setting it sounds really nice

[@sincerely_will4860]

I'm still trying to figure out the difference between the se and regular

[@tayaki3218]

can someone tell me how to charge it like it wont charge do I have to switch it to wireless to charge or?

[@danielkhani7709]

Are you sure it doesn't work on the xbox wirelessly?

[@cptspunion]

Would you recommend these or arctis pro wireless? Would be paying Amazon msrp for the corsair virtuoso and about $210 for the APW. Looking to upgrade from my old turtle Beach p12 finally.

[@TheTechne]

I say pro wireless over virtuoso

[@Wake_up_joe]

I have this headset and I am only getting audio out of one headphone does anyone know how to fix it

[@stormzy445]

Does the surround sound work on PS4? and will it work on PS5?

[@Enjoylifeweonlygotone]

So wait they have 7.1 but only work on pc not ps4/ps5 ?

[@josephstalin6095]

If you switch to surround sound on pc then switch to ps4 will it say on surround sound ?

[@darkminer8675]

Great headset! I just ordered mine, but is it possible to do a mic test of the headset when used Wirelessly?

[@TravelSenpaii]

Hello, did you end up liking the headset I used to have turtle beach

[@JustinPullin]

How's the volume hold up on PS4?edit: heard they're shallow, with that price point that's a no go.

[@1Dub79]

I own the SE version. Wirelessly, the sound is loud enough. The sound can be MUCH louder, depending on the game you're playing. The sound is shallow, when using these wired through the controller. I use my SoundBlaster X G6. They sound outstanding.

[@Blackirondino]

techne more like the king of tech!

[@Black_Elon_Musk]

So if on ps4 you don’t get any side tone?

[@xehn]

awesome video!

Hey man :) i have a question since i cant seem to find a top5 or anything in ur latest videos, which would be your top 3 Wireless gaming headsets around 100€ ? comfort is important to me , also on top of the head not only on ears ... If you could give me a few options that would be awesome :D keep up the great work ;)

I've been eyeing out on a new set of wireless gaming headsets on your channel. Would you choose these, Arctis 7 or the ATH-G1WL? I currently have Philips Fidelio X2 and if none of the wireless headsets appeal to me, I may add the Sound BlasterX G6 to my rig. Cheers

[@TheTechne]

what platform(s) do you play on?

BTW if pc 110% the audio technicas. I actually have them on my head right now, lol!

[@joshuaghermezian5313]

What is it lol?

[@WeiWeen]

The weight kinda focuses on the very top of my head and it causes some pressure. Maybe my head is just shaped different. That’s the only thing bad about the headset

[@Kwease247]

A friend was asking if he should even bother getting these for his PS4 pro. I did tell him that the 7.1 wouldn't work and he was ok with that.

[@birdo732]

How do you add your headset to the iCue. Mine just shows my keyboard and that’s it

while the software is open, try unplugging the dongle and plugging it back in

can I use the mic on mobile?
