Lorenz0 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 These are already possibly the best earcups I can think of but a nice alternative would be some thick leather earcups for a different soundstage. I would also love to see some Virtuoso earcup replacements made of the same material used by the HS80 earcups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambahrij Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Using the headset now, I have to say the soundstage is vastly different then my past Void (2015) I guess with the modular design you could offer some interesting options for different soundstages (open back, leather) etc etc But one thing I wouldn't mind is alittle larger as I oddly have bigger ears then expected and its a big tight but only by a small amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prologuen Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Actually adding leather earcups with tiny layer behind the earcups(like virtuoso earpads) would be so good. So we can clear the dirt inside the earcups easly. I added picture of tiny laner that I mentioned.(inner part of earpads.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK-Morpheus Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 As long as spare part earcups are going to be available, I'm happy. Maybe also release some earcups with a different kind of fabric. The HS80 is very comfy, but the fabric is very hard to clean, because dirt/handruff/hair seems to hold on to the fabric like velcro. Other than that, they are feeling good and they have the right amount of thickness. I also like, that the HS80 are dampening the ambient noise only a little bit. Maybe other people prefer a strong noise dampening and therefore earcups with leather-like material, but to me the rather low dampening amount is much preferred.

Georgi73 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 As others have already mentioned a leather version would be ideal for less noise to escape and also a deeper version for us with bigger ears! As far as color is concerned I'm not really bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoakyeD Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 A replacement with the exact same material will be welcomed as we might wanna replace them when they get super dirty. A leather replacement will also be appreciated :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dritzz Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Replacement with the exact same material is the bare minimum. I will enjoy mostly having leather earpads to maximise punchyness of the bases , or even better : leather with cooling gel maybe with a premium price would be great. I would love to test this wonderfull headset with a pair of leather earpads , to see how much that could change the audio spectrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joffre Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Hello, As I really love Corsair products and have almost everithing possible, I ordered last thing and that was headphones. HS80 are rellay good and comfortable headphones. Really good sound for me for games and music also. One thing I miss so much are the leather ear cups, I had on my previous HyperX Cloud II. It really gave the bang in the bass. So for me deffinitely leather ear cups is the right choice to offer for customers. Thank you and sorry for my english :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BilboTN Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Any word on replacement pads or did this get pushed to the side and forgotten? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reqzl. Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 when will we be able to purchase these ear pads as a common fault on many hs80 seem to be the adessive wearing off ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoAcheron Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 +1 on the adhesive. I got mine during the Black Friday sale in November 2021 and mine burst through its adhesive last night (27 Feb 2022). At first I was hoping that it was just like my Void headset, where the cups are removable, but no. This is some shoddy cost cutting, that's not something I would expect from a premium product. The cups on the HS80 is NOT REMOVABLE, because its all glued in there. Once they are off, they will not be going back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that the HS80s are currently uncomfortable but I just came from another headset that had this and would be my strong preference, I don't know how I lived without it before. It might what moves me back to my old headset but only time will tell on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applause Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think the stock earpads is too hard. They don't adapt to my headshape as well as i.e. my Sony WH-1000xm3's. Actually it would be really nice with some replacement earpads that's is the same material and softness as the xm3's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyDoo Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Have had issues with my earcups coming unglued twice in the past 6 months and had to return the headsets both times as replacements weren't available. I'm starting to worry it's going to happen a third time before you guys start actually selling the replacements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinRukiri Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Take a hint from wicked cushions, they're sooooooooooo comfy and the cooling gel is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambahrij Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Any word on the replacement cups? As my ear cups are starting to fall apart it would see rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddini Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Sure I would like some cups, but even better, I would love me some linux support for iCue or preferably something opensource with support from Corsair, can we get some attention to your customers here on your forums please?

BoakyeD Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I got this for almost a year and still no news on earcup replacement? Corsair, plz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plshelpmec0rsair Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) @Corsair Angie How durable are the hinges? Are the hinges made of steel? Is the battery (somewhat) replaceable? Is there a version where the charging port is not on the bottom, but on the side? As far as cups go, breathable and machine washable. White would be nice.
