GETTING STARTED
The HS65 SURROUND is a multi-platform headset that operates in two audio
modes: Stereo and 7.1 surround sound. In stereo mode, you can connect the
3.5mm jack into any PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch or mobile device.
The included 7.1 surround sound USB adapter enables virtual 7.1 surround sound
on a PC. Remember that powering the 7.1 surround sound USB adapter requires a
high power (USB 2.0 or better) port. Some USB ports on older keyboards and
monitors do not support high-power devices. Place the headset on your head and
adjust the headband for a comfortable fit. The plush memory foam earpads
enable the HS65 SURROUND headset to fit comfortably so you can play for hours
without fatigue.
CORSAIR iCUE
Go to corsair.com/support/downloads to
download the CORSAIR iCUE software.
Using iCUE software will enable the full feature set of the HS65 SURROUND
headset. The 7.1 surround sound USB adapter must be connected to your PC to
use iCUE software.
Note: If the headset is used without software, some features will be
disabled.
Install the iCUE software on a PC running Windows 10 or later.
After installation is complete, reboot your PC, and launch iCUE.
iCUE software can be used to:
Select and customize audio equalizer (EQ) settings.
Set 7.1 surround sound on or off.
Enable SoundID™ audio personalization.
The software’s built-in documentation explains how to use the HS65 SURROUND’s features in greater detail.
GENERAL TIPS
Download the CORSAIR iCUE software from
corsair.com/support/downloads.
Don’t be afraid to use the software equalizer to adjust the audio quality to
your liking. EQ presets have been provided for popular gaming and media types.
Prolonged listening at high volumes may adversely affect your hearing. Take
breaks between sessions and always begin with the volume at the lowest
possible level before increasing.
ADJUSTMENT
As with any audio product, reduce the volume before trying it with an audio
source the first time.
You can adjust the volume with:
The volume controller on the headset at the bottom corner of your left earcup.
The standard Windows audio controller can also be used to adjust the volume.
Once an audio source is playing, set the volume to a comfortable level.
MICROPHONE ADJUSTMENT
Flip-up microphone to mute. Flip-down microphone to unmute. Bend the flexible microphone boom to best fit near the left corner of your mouth. We’ve found that about a 30-degree bend is a good place to start, but feel free to increase or decrease this if your mic is too loud or too soft.
Enjoy your HS65 SURROUND headset! If you have any questions or comments, see the back panel of this guide for contact information.
