The Corsair HS65 Surround may be a little slim on the extras, and if you want the frills, this might be too minimalist for your taste. However, where it counts most – comfort, sound quality, even versatility – it serves up plenty. This gaming headset is not just comfortable, but also one of the best-sounding gaming headsets I’ve tested, especially for that sub-$100 price. And, it’s just as great for music-listening as it is for gaming and movie-watching.
