Razer - Kraken Ultimate Wired Over-the-Ear Headset - Classic Black

I have had the Razer Kraken Ultimate for a few weeks now. And I have already had many better experiences with this headset than others in the past. It’s sound quality is outstanding and the money you have to pay for this is all worth it. It’s microphone was instantly hooked up to my computer and I had to change the audio from my computer speakers to my Kraken Ultimate, so it’s a very simple set up. Not only is the mic easy to set up but it has a great noise-cancellation setting and you can boost its gain in Razer Synapse. And what makes it even better is the fact that you can apply any effect of lighting you wish on the headset itself. I personally use wave and fire effects for my razer set up. Besides that, it’s overall a great headset and it’s all worth it!

Got compliments on the mic from a few people I play the division 2 with. Sound is great. You can tell what direction sounds are coming from. Making it alot easier to find enemies when you play fps games. Lighting looks great, ear muffs are nice and cool. These do not noise cancel well. You will still hear your clicks on mechanical keyboards unless you turn the volume up a bit.. That's my only con for this headset.

The only reason its not 5 stars is because they dont have a wireless version for this line. Aside from that the surround sound it pretty good, they are very comfortable for prolonged use. The mic is really decent with a bunch of nice features like noise canceling. As for music they are amazing this is where they really shine for me, several EQ's with the ability to customize to your liking and the bass is sweet, clean but deep makes my eardrums rattle which is just was I was looking for. A great set of cans for a reasonable price. If only they had a wireless version and no I dont like the nari's

I had no issues with the headset! I always prefer wired headsets/headphones so I don't have to worry about charging, connection, or losing them. The regular and THX surround sound both work wonderful. The mic is so crisp, you always sound clear when talking to others. So glad I got these!

As I said in reviewing the "Tournament" edition, this Kraken Ultimate and the Kraken Tournament edition are very similar. Sound quality is probably identical. The tournament edition has a somewhat longer connection cable with an extra controller box while this one uses a small wheel-controller on the cable, conveniently around hand distance from your left ear. It controls volume and mic on/off. This one is priced a little lower than Tournament, because no extra controller box. If I had to pick just one (I use both, at different machines) I'd just get this one.

I got this on sale for a great deal of $70. The headset is lightweight and sturdy with the RGP lightning makes it so cool looking. The sounds are amazing with THX spatial sound. I am not a fan of the Razer app as it is not very user friendly for someone who is not an audiophile expert. The settings and adjustments are not clear but I did get the settings to work in surround sound automatically when I log in to my games. Overall, it is a great buy and for under a hundred dollars it is worth purchasing.

A lot of people always talk about how "bad" value Razer products are, but I beg to differ after purchasing this headset. The mic quality and sound quality are great in Discord and very easy to use. Coupled with the Razer Synapse program, I can also setup my own neat lighting profiles to match my games. (I did get this headset on sale though!!!)

Overall sound is solid. Fit is comfortable, slightly heavy after long gaming sessions. Only reason I have given 4 stars is because they stopped game sound a couple times. Just had to reset and no issue since. Price is a little on high side when you could get steel series at a better price point but overall happy with purchase.
