The most interesting feature of the Corsair HS80 Max may well be the SoundID technology. This basically runs through a number of tests to check your hearing and adjust the sound according to your own ears and your personal taste. The first test checks for hearing loss and the second just your preferences in terms of sound (e.g. more bass or a more natural sound). This tech really changes how the audio sounds and is well worth trying.
