FAQs

What is Taction Technology?

Taction Technology is the system that enables the headset's haptic bass feature, translating low-frequency audio signals into physical vibrations felt through the earcups for a more immersive experience.

Can I use this headset with a PlayStation or Xbox?

The HS60 HAPTIC is primarily designed for PC via USB. While it may function as a standard stereo headset on some consoles via USB, full functionality including haptic feedback and software features is not guaranteed and may require specific adapters or configurations.

How do I adjust the haptic intensity?

Haptic intensity can be adjusted using the dedicated dial located on one of the earcups. You can also fine-tune these settings through the CORSAIR iCUE software on your PC.

Is the microphone detachable?

Yes, the noise-cancelling microphone is detachable, allowing you to remove it when not needed for communication, offering flexibility in how you use the headset.

What is the benefit of the CORSAIR iCUE software?

The iCUE software allows you to customize audio profiles, apply equalization (EQ) settings, and further adjust the intensity and characteristics of the haptic feedback for a personalized sound and feel experience.

Does this headset offer active noise cancellation?

This headset features *passive* noise cancellation through its earcups, which helps to block out some ambient noise. It does not have active noise cancellation (ANC) technology.

What is the cable length?

The cable length for the Corsair HS60 HAPTIC headset is 1.8 meters.

Troubleshooting

No audio output

Ensure the headset is selected as the default audio device in your computer's sound settings. Check that the USB connection is secure and try a different USB port.

Haptic feedback is not working or too weak/strong

Verify that the haptic effect control on the earcup is adjusted correctly. Use CORSAIR iCUE software to fine-tune haptic intensity and check the headset's USB connection.

Microphone not detected or not working

Ensure the detachable microphone is properly connected to the headset. Check microphone settings in your operating system and in-game/communication software. Make sure the microphone is not muted via the on-ear controls.

Audio distortion or crackling

Check the USB connection. Close unnecessary background applications that may be consuming system resources. Update audio drivers and ensure the CORSAIR iCUE software is up to date.
