The Corsair Virtuoso Max is the latest flagship headset from Corsair, with a rich feature set and robust build quality. The Virtuoso Max has graphene drivers, simultaneous Bluetooth, ANC, and more. On paper it's great, but the more you use it, the more the Virtuoso Max surprises you. This is a long review, but I cover everything in great detail. Be sure to use chapters if you only care about a few parts, and thanks!
