Head-to-Head Breakdown
Strengths & Weaknesses
Corsair ST100 RGB
- WePC named it the best overall stand, choosing it over Razer for its aluminum build quality
- Dual USB 3.1 ports plus a 3.5mm jack with virtual 7.1 surround clear clutter off the desk
- Nine-zone RGB syncs with the rest of a Corsair iCUE setup
- The full RGB, surround and equalizer features need the iCUE software
- The wide base takes more desk space than an under-desk hanger
- At list price it costs more than most simple stands
New Bee RGB Headphone Stand
- Roundups call it the best value gaming stand, with RGB and charging for about $20
- Adds a USB-C and a USB-A charging port most cheap stands leave out
- Plug and play with no software, in several color options
- Lighter aluminum-and-ABS build than the premium towers
- No audio passthrough or surround like the Corsair or Razer
- New Bee is a budget brand with no wider ecosystem
The Verdict
Our Bottom Line
The Corsair ST100 RGB is the stand reviewers reach for first. WePC picked it as the best overall specifically for build quality, calling the machined aluminum a clear step above Razer's plastic tower. It does more than hold a headset. Dual USB 3.1 ports and a 3.5mm jack with virtual 7.1 surround pull cables and audio onto the stand, while nine-zone RGB syncs with the rest of an iCUE setup. At 1kg on a rubberized base, it stays planted under a heavy pair of cans.
