Corsair HS80 RGB USB Wired Gaming Headset Carbon (EU) - CA-9011237-EU Gaming Headset

These Corsair HS80 RGB USB gaming headphones are aimed at serious PC gaming – not a basic model, but something more meaningful for long sessions and precise sound. They connect via USB and rely on a wired connection, which means a stable signal without worries about battery life and latency. The headphones' wide frequency range of 20Hz–40kHz and large 50 mm drivers provide a good foundation for detailed sound in games, movies, and music. A gaming-oriented microphone with 7.1 virtual surround support is also built in for better spatial orientation.

What you get: with headphones featuring an impedance of 32 Ω and a sensitivity of 116 dB, you get sufficiently strong and easily driven sound through a standard USB port, without the need for an external amplifier. The 50 mm driver diameter helps with fuller bass and a wider soundstage – in shooters, this means a clearer idea of where footsteps, shots, and abilities are coming from. 7.1 virtual surround provides a spatial sensation that is useful not only in FPS but also in RPGs and online games with many effects and sound directions. The microphone with a sensitivity of -40 ± 3 dB and a frequency range of 100Hz – 10kHz is sufficiently focused on the human voice, so your team can hear you clearly in Discord without you having to shout. A 1.8 m cable is a good balance – you have the freedom to move your keyboard and mouse without getting tangled in excess length.

• Headphones with a microphone, oriented towards PC gaming, so everything – from sound to microphone – is tailored for online games and voice chat.
• Wide frequency range of the headphones 20Hz–40kHz, which allows for detail in both low and high frequencies.
• Large 50 mm speakers for fuller bass and clearer positioning of sounds in dynamic scenes.
• Support for 7.1 virtual surround, useful for orientation in 3D space – footsteps behind you, shooting from the side, effects around you.
• Headphone sensitivity of 116 dB and impedance of 32 Ω, which allows for easy power delivery and sufficient volume via USB.
• Microphone with a sensitivity of -40 ± 3 dB and a frequency range of 100Hz – 10kHz, optimized primarily for clear voice transmission in chat and streaming.
• Wired connection with a length of 1.8 m and USB connectivity, which ensures a stable signal without the need for charging and without additional adapters.
• Classic black color, which easily matches most gaming setups and peripherals.

Who it is suitable for: if you mainly play on PC and want stable wired headphones for shooters, MOBA, or MMO with regular voice chat, this model is a good starting point. It is also suitable for watching movies and general multimedia when you want fuller sound and a surround effect. It is not the most suitable choice if you are looking for wireless mobility or universal headphones for console and phone, as the focus here is clearly on USB PC gaming.

The combination of 50 mm drivers, 7.1 virtual surround, and USB wired connection makes the Corsair HS80 RGB USB a logical choice if you are after stability, good gaming sound, and a clear microphone, without going into extreme budgets. You get a configuration focused on PC gaming that simply gets the job done.
