Conclusion

Mobile experience with this headset was very pleasant. Being light weight walking with mobile device feels comfortable.
Also like to add that the whole audio quality and experience depends on the audio-output device and the audio content itself. In my case I listened to lossless audio files via ASUS Xonar U7 USB sound card. So the CORSAIR HS55 Stereo headset performed decent in music and very good in gaming, especially considering the price of Rs.5.2K (approx) .
Finally, with a mid-range price and nice bass response, the CORSAIR HS55 Stereo headset is a must recommendation for the gamers and is worthy of our PC TeK Reviews Choice Award.
