Abstract: PC gamer, console gamer, movie-watcher, or music-listener--which surround sound headset is right for you? Logitech, Psyko, Plantronics, Tritton, Razer Headphones are a requirement, whether you need them in order to prevent the noisy movie from waking...
Incredibly lightweight, Comfortable, Positional audio works great in newer Windows, Individual controls over all 8 channels, Driver-free installation for eSports tournaments and cross-platform compatibility, Hard shell case included for traveling
Expensive, Poor 50% compatibility for Windows XP, Mic has background hiss even at lowest sensitivity, Audio in 7.1 mode sounds a bit hollow, Unable to upmix stereo content to 7.1 or decode Dolby Pro Logic II audio, Blocks system controls in Mac and XP...
Deficient only in its ability to upmix stereo content and play nice with Windows XP, Razer's Megalodon is the clear winner in the personal surround sound arms race. The headset's attention to comfort, sound quality, game compatibility and tournament re...
