Corsair Gaming Headset: Virtuoso usbc port repair

Fri, 11 Apr 2025 08:02:55 -0700

charging the headset has become laborious and tricky

I have to wiggle the cord in the port to find the right angle to charge... I cannot charge and wear anymore....

I should have used a magnetic charger...hindsight is 20/20

is it even worth repairing this $150 headset that I've had for 4 years, or should I get the new model that is closer to $400?

I'd rather not break the bank rn...

Corsair Gaming Headset: Identifying Replacement Mini USB Port for Corsair Virtuoso wireless SE

Fri, 11 Apr 2025 07:46:15 -0700

Hello

I'm trying to repair my Corsair headset and need help finding the right replacement for its broken 10-pin mini USB port, which is used for the detachable microphone. Unfortunately, Corsair has told me they can't provide assistance.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Corsair/comment...

I've attached photos of the damaged port for reference. It’s a mini USB, but I need to make sure I get the right one.

Does anyone know the exact specs of this port or where I can find a compatible replacement? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Corsair HS70 Pro Wireless: So the headset doesn't turn on after battery replacement error.

Sat, 12 Oct 2024 20:46:35 -0700

Meme Story to ignore:

So.... quick question if I were... to accidentally connect the new battery with the wrong polarity and then leave it charging for 30min... watch the tutorial again realize that the polarity is wrong open it up again and then correct the polarity and the thing doesn't power up... would it break the headset... just asking for a friend :'L

Actual story:

I saw the tutorials, I bought the battery, I didn't have the "tools" the pointy thing for the polarity and I kinda had a little bit of fear of removing the battery and exploding in my face, so I decided to go the a local cellphone repair shop and told them about it... they didn't check the polarity, when I went to pick it up they told me that the thing was charging and working. In my home I connect it but the LEDs didn't turn on. I opened it up and yep they didn't even verify the polarity.

With an old multimeter I tested that the battery had 3.~v DC charge... but the headset doesn't power up. And I heavily suspect that it's gone.

When I connect it for a split second the led powers up before turning off.

Edit:

I bought the same battery of this answer.(the one from the chosen solution)

Corsair Gaming Headset: Audio only playing in one side of headset.

Sun, 21 Jul 2024 12:27:50 -0700

I have a wired pair of HS60 Corsair headphones. Recently the audio started only coming through on the right side of the headset. It is definitely a hardware issue. Other headphones, both wired and wireless, do perfectly fine. The same headphones also have the same problems across multiple computers. I have taken the ear cups off and pulled the driver from the left side to inspect for a loose wire connection to the driver, but everything looks good and wiggling the wires never makes the audio come back. I also have massaged the cord going from the headset to the pc to see if there was a short I could find in it, but the audio never came back that way either.

Corsair HS70 Pro Wireless: Broken left headset pivot

Wed, 03 Jul 2024 12:45:13 -0700

Hello! I got a tiny problem with an hs70. On the part that connects the speakers to the headband there is a small pivot that allows the speakers to rotate a little big, I suppose to allow the headset to adapt to different head shapes. Thing is, I somehow broke the left pivot and cant think of a way to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Corsair Gaming Headset: Corsair HS80 USB c not charging

Mon, 01 Jul 2024 16:33:45 -0700

Is there any way i can repair the USB charger for my headset? I believe the internal portion of the USB c is damaged or broken off. A charger no longer holds inside and even when I hold it in, it does not make connection.

Corsair Void Pro RGB: [Wired] Anyone willing/able to make USB cable repair guide?

Sun, 14 Apr 2024 05:34:00 -0700

The Corsair Void Pro RGB listing on the site seems to exclusively focus on the wireless version, and as such, there’s no information about repairing/replacing the USB cord if the outer casing is damaged, etc.

I have a set of these headphones, and obviously, I have this issue - the outer USB casing is damaged in spots, leaving the wires themselves exposed, and recently, presumably because of this, I’ve had issues with intermittent static.

I’d love to try to fix them, but I don’t know where to start, and I was hoping someone here could maybe provide a guide.

Thoughts?

Corsair Void Pro RGB: Battery bypass wired mod

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 21:32:40 -0700

So the battery connects via a 3pin connector in the right ear. Instead of soldering and replacing the busted Micro USB, would a simple alteration be possible to just route power via an added right-side USB C into the 3-pin connector the battery would normally use?

Corsair Void Pro RGB: Charging light turns on and off

Wed, 15 Jun 2022 13:26:39 -0700

Hi,
The charging light on the headphones keeps turning off and on probably due to a problem in the charging port which means charging cable keeps disconnecting. Is there a way to fix it without replacing the port itself. Maybe I can check if the connections are firm? I don't know how to do that.
