About this deal

Unlike the H65, the HS55 Wireless also doesn’t have app support. We tried to use it with the Corsair iCue software, and all it allowed us to do was link it with the 2.4GHz wireless transmitter, which was moot as they’re already linked. This means that you won’t be getting proper EQ privileges here. The Corsair HS55 Wireless delivers a much improved audio performance over its predecessor and has a wider soundstage, thanks to the inclusion of digital surround sound. PC - Connect the wireless USB receiver to any USB (type-A) port on your PC. Press the power button on the headset. The headset powers on in RF wireless mode by default. The headset is designed to operate at a range of up to 50 feet (15.24m) from the receiver, but other wireless devices, electronics and obstructions such as walls may impact performance. Validity : Extended Warranty will start after the Brand warranty ends & continues for 1 year/ 2 years as per plan. What's covered : The plan covers all defects & electric malfunctions as covered under the original Brand warranty. If so, the issue may be caused by the latest iCUE software update coming into conflict with your Windows build. You can try one of the following fixes below.

The final thing to discuss here is the headset’s sole flagship feature: dual wireless connectivity. The HS55 Wireless Core is able to connect to two audio sources at one time: 2.4GHz wireless using the included USB Type-A dongle, and Bluetooth 5.2. 2.4GHz is intended for gaming and provides a low latency connection for a wired-like experience that’s also compatible with PlayStation 5. Bluetooth has higher latency, but still works with all of your usual devices, including the Nintendo Switch. COVERAGE: The plan covers all defects & malfunctions under the original manufacturer’s warranty. The plan starts the day after the manufacturer’s warranty ends. It does not cover physical or liquid damage, accessories, consumables or parts that are not covered under the standard manufacturer’s warranty. CASHLESS & UNLIMITED REPAIRS: You DON’T PAY for any spare parts, labour or transportation charges. Unlimited repairs up to the invoice value of the device. REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE: We will either repair your device within the promised time or give a replacement FREE OF COST.

Frequently asked questions about the Corsair HS55 SURROUND

Do not leave the battery fully discharged for long periods. Battery life is maximized by keeping the battery in a partially charged state.

The performance of video conferencing and voice chat using apps like Discord, Zoom, Teams, or Facetime is outstanding, and while Corsair isn’t promoting the HS55 Stereo as a video conferencing solution, colleagues and friends will hear you loud and clear. NOTE: Prolonged listening at high volumes may adversely affect your hearing. Take breaks between sessions and always begin with the volume at a low level before increasing. MICROPHONE CONTROL So lets start with how it performed to me. Mainly in game I like sound a bit more with mids and highs than bass. I used hyperx cloud core before in some story games the dialogue volume appeared a bit low. But it has the perfect blance in audio frequency mainly for games. Did you experience one or more of the following sound issues after installing the most recent iCUE software update? The HS55 Wireless is plenty comfortable, however. I've been wearing it for the better part of eight-hour work days and only towards the very end of the day do my ears start to ache a touch and I want rid of this thing. That's actually pretty good compared to some other budget headsets I've been using lately—the Scarlett HP60 MkIII headset included with the Scarlett 2i2 bundle I reviewed last year starts to get uncomfortable to wear after just a couple of hours.

The Corsair HS55 Stereo sounds great, but carries a premium price for its class

Now lets talk about the 7.1 system it has. Many people may say the virtual 7.1 surround sound is a gimmik. Go for a good quality stero headphone. But to me personally stereo feels a bit odd in games. The audio has no fill. But enabling 7.1 gives a huge advantage in games. The big thing to know is that the device can’t accept simultaneous audio in the same way a more premium headset like the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless can. You can only listen to one source at a time, but it will automatically interrupt game audio if a call comes through and restore it once you’re done.
