Overview

The Corsair HS60 SURROUND Gaming Headset is built around custom-tuned 50mm neodymium speaker drivers that deliver a wide frequency range suitable for picking up in-game audio cues, enjoying music, and holding clear voice conversations. The earcups are lined with plush memory foam that conforms to the shape of your head, and the adjustable headband with metal construction provides a secure yet comfortable fit during marathon gaming sessions. On-ear controls give you immediate access to volume adjustment and microphone mute without tabbing out of your game.

One of the HS60's standout features is the included USB adapter, which unlocks 7.1 virtual surround sound on PC through Corsair's iCUE software. This gives positional audio depth that stereo alone cannot achieve, helping you locate footsteps and environmental sounds more precisely. The detachable unidirectional microphone is optimized to pick up your voice while reducing ambient noise, and it can be removed entirely when you want a cleaner look for music listening or solo play. With 3.5mm connectivity, the HS60 also works across PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices, making it a versatile option for multi-platform gamers.
