Today we will be taking a look at the latest gaming headset from Corsair, the VOID Hybrid, which is breaking the cross-compatibility bar by offering surround stereo audio for console/mobile devices and a Dolby 7.1 USB Adapter for PC users.
To start, we have seen Corsair storm the headset market with their latest chain of products in the VOID range that has turned a few heads so when we were sent the new VOID Hybrid, our eyes widened and we got to work right away. This is the first Corsair VOID headset I have reviewed, with Gavin Bonshor taking a look at the previous versions available in the series, so I look forward to what is on offer by Corsair in the audio side of things.
Offering a surround stereo option for those platforms using the available 3.5mm jack and a full Dolby 7.1 surround experience for PC/USB IO users, we have a nice diversion of potential in the audio market for just one headset. So, is it any good? Well, lets start off by taking a look at a general breakdown of the device before putting it through its paces in our review!
