Corsair VIRTUOSO RGB WIRELESS XT vs Sennheiser HD 599

Personally the pleather doesn't bother me but comfort is subjective for the corsair XT since round earcups isn't everyone's cup of tea.

Would be loose fitting in no time. I thought sennheiser sounded like made in Germany. Not $200 China. Looks nice

What can i say, i love my full metal corsair products, the RGB is really cool how they have the ring around the mic! The audio is great when its in the wireless mode and its even better when you use the Aux cord. The pressure on my ears isn't a problem because of the soft foam inside The headset fits great tho its not the softest head padding Yeeeeeeee yeeee Over all i would say you cant go wrong here, a must buy! Edit: after using it for awhile i would it needs some softer head padding

Soundwise, it is nice as well, doesn't require much power. It is a good, and often cheap, option.

Wireless: The dongle provided is built strong and looks good. Functionally awesome too considering I can walk around my apartment without losing audio or mic connection. Comfort: Comfy but a bit too snug. The snugness does help with sound isolation though

Sennheiser 599 is just soooo comfortable for long uses. Have one for 2 years now. Soundwise, it is nice as well, doesn't require much power. It is a good, and often cheap, option

The "Premium" version is worth it for the build and audio quality obtained considering it is wireless. Build: Quality build. Sturdy while looking really clean and cool. The RGB is a plus considering I already use Corsair's iCue software for my PC fans and keyboard

The cable was heavy and pulled the headphone on that side. Very disappointed. Looking at more substantially built headphone purchase. Light ain't always right

I'm writing this review on day 3 of owning, and these are the perfect well-rounded pair of wireless headphones. These replaced the Void Pro headset of mine and while I thought the Void Pros were top tier a year ago, the XT makes the Void lineup look like Skullcandy. The headset is nice and light, has an above average microphone, dual connection between dongle/bluetooth at the same time, and even a 3.5mm port for an external DAC

When I started shopping for a new pair headphones, I was mostly listening to music through the Spotify app on my phone, connected to a set of decent quality Bluetooth earbuds. That set-up was okay for work, but I was in search of a premium audio experience for home listening. I (mistakenly) assumed that I could just buy some over-ear headphones, plug them into my phone or laptop, and everything would be instantly amazing. That was definitely not the case

I wanted something wireless to avoid extra wires without compromising quality of sound on the mic end and audio end. Below I breakdown pros and cons mostly from a wireless perspective. Price: After watching review after review of Yotubers comparing these to other headsets that are significantly more expensive, I had a feeling these would be worth it. And so far they are

* **Budget** \- $300-$1000 (flexible, I would like to narrow it down to a few solid options to compare)
