Razer Tiamat 7.1 V2 Surround Sound Gaming Headset on Amazon

The Razer Tiamat 7.1 are a very expensive gaming headset.  It does have some premium features such as an external sound mixer with a large knob for adjusting the volume.  The audio mixer has three buttons on it and they perform the following functions: mute/unmute sound, switch between pc speakers and headphones, and a button to switch between stereo and 7.1 surround sound.  The last smaller knob on the audio mixer is a selector for choosing between adjustments for main volume, front, center, side, mic volume, sub, and rear.  The Razer Tiamat 7.1 is completely wired and requires you to have 7.1 audio connectors on your computer as opposed to the Astro A50’s which are wireless and instead relies on simulated 7.1 software based surround sound.  The earcups were a decent size, but I found them to be a little bit too small that they didn’t completely go over my ear so you do feel some discomfort on the ears after using these past an hour, the Astro A50’s on the other hand completely covered my ears.  Continue reading Razer Tiamat 7.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset Unboxing and Full Review vs. Astro A50 headset
