Razer Kraken 7.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been playing computer video games right after the invention of the wheel in every configuration possible in both video and audio. I went from a highfalutin 5.1 surround system to mutiple experiments with 2.1 systems.but nothing engaged me fully in the gaming until now. Set up was again very easy with the dongle connection to the computers USB, download the JBL Quantum app and you are at the starting gate. Click on the 7.1 channel set up and it will launch a video on how to configure the headphones with Windows.This is when the fun starts. Press test after configuration and you will hear the 7.1 surround test pattern swirling around your head.Very cool. It took a little while for my brain to adapt to the ambience that these headphone provide and doing so wirelessly! Footsteps, voices in various enviroments, shot gun blast, and explosions, drew me into the game.Soon the headphones disappered and the gaming expierence became more pronouced and involving. Even my old games that I played over a million times had a new lease on life. But wait theres more. Besides my music library in my computer, I also stream music. Now I can listen to music with these headphones without being tied down to the computer. In fact the distance from the computer was very very impressive. Did I like these? Absolutly killer for gaming and music! They have not left my head!

I really like this headset I did want to compare the virtual surround on these and my razer thresher ultimate headset when it came to gaming with them The Philips Fidelio X2HR sounded good but there are some sounds that can not be picked up when gaming as I have heard and seen in some youtube reviews that have said otherwise The sound is great on the Philips Fidelio X2HR for gaming But there just better for thrasher music and heavy bass They really kick I highly recommend these

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Positives: JBL Quantum 400 is a solid gaming headset with excellent build and top notch sound quality. The build quality of JBL never disappoints. The quantum surround sound will give you the surround sound experience and is the best part of the headphones. You can customize your sound experience with the app. The microphone works perfect.The headphones worked perfect with my Xbox One. This headset gives immersive gaming experience you need. Negatives: None but if nitpicking, the sound cable can be little longer.

I use this for my USB headphones, razer blackwidow keyboard , Razer deathadder mouse and so much more I added to it and it's coming up now on two years in Feb, having this and been thinking of buying another

Used for front presence speakers in 7.1 surround system. High quality.

I run all Klipsch for my 7.1.4 and the surround speakers simply weren't doing the job in context (the mains are Cornwall IV's for example). So I replaced the Klipsch RP 502 II's with the RP 600 II's and am enjoying a much better surround experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased C1 OLED, SN11 7.1 surround sound and UBK90 disc player. All work together flawlessly for a fantastic home theater experience. The LG magic remote from the TV controls all 3 devices.

I set them as rear speakers.Sonos 7.1.4 surround Dolby Atmos system is amazing.Must have

Got then 2 weeks ago, tried them out wired to my computer. The bass is really noticably awesome and the surround sound for gaming is phenomenal. They're much smaller and slimmer than they look in photos which is nice. Super comfortable ear cups! If your using for gaming note that it obviously doesn't have a mic. All around the best headset I've ever owned, I'm sure there are better out there but not at this price point. (Also I don't have an amp and the sound is amazing already!)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use it for streaming, gaming and music. I love the surround sound and the bass is amazing.
