Overall we are very impressed with what the Corsair Vengeance 1500 has to offer.  The stylish and subtle visage of the headset is sure to appeal to a wide range of users even though some may prefer the more ‘exciting' designs of other headsets on the market.

Build quality is the main area in which the Vengeance 1500 excels.  The combination of high quality plastic and brushed aluminum gives the headset a very sturdy construction, giving us full confidence that it will be able to withstand some long term abuse.

As hoped, the performance of the headset was very strong throughout all of our gaming, movie and music tests.  Both Dolby Headphone and the 7.1 virtual surround sound technology give the gaming and movie experience an extra dimension and improve the overall audio quality.  We are also able to optimise the sound balance of the headset for different types of playback, using the presets within the control panel.

The Corsair Vengeance 1500 can be yours for £86 at Scan.co.uk.  This is a competitive price point, especially when factoring in the exceptional build quality and audio reproduction. It may cost a little extra when compared against some competing products, but Corsair really have put a lot of effort into the construction of the Vengeance 1500.
