I have speakers for when I’m just messing around but strongly prefer a headset. I use the razor black shark v2 wired and they are fantastic. I play in vr when I “lock in” and being in the vr with a great headset just feels right. I always say I’m no longer at my computer but I’m at the track that I’m racing in in vr with the headset. But sometimes you just wanna dick around in time trials or play Forza horizon and with speakers and my monitor those feel better when I’m just in a casual mood
Seen a couple mentions for Blackshark V2 and a couple for official, I think I’m going to pickup up the black shark just cause I’m looking for cheap and quick and easy, I really only do like FFXIV and a tiny bit of Discord chatting with people, so appreciate the comments everyone.
Yeah I’m seeing a 3rd mention for black shark or official, I’m leaning more towards black shark cause of budget, might go official, appreciate it!
Razer black shark v2 wired is awesome. Great sound and no mic problems so far and it’s a great price
I used Razer Blackshark V2 wired and it was awesome with amazing mic, very comfortable pads, and no pressure to the head. There is also a wireless version called Blackshark V2 Hyperspeed!
Well I got my stepson the razer blackshark v2s and he really likes them. They're great for positional audio for FPS's. But I just use my hd599s because I love how open back sounds, and I have a boom mic attachment for online gaming
I've got the Blackshark V2 (wired) and found them great for the pricepoint. Lasted 5 years at least so far, audio is pretty good to me and they're really light and comfortable to wear for hours. But I'm no audio snob that dishes out $500 for a headset so I guess it depends on what you're coming from.
I really enjoy my razer blackshark v2 wired I had a corsair virtuoso wireless but so heavy 30mins of gameplay everything hurt. So, I sold them and got the razer honestly amazing! 7.1 digital ss and super lite weight. I did get an amp from fosi from aliexpress, which has been a great addition. Don't get the razer from aliexpress I had issues with activation. First product I have ever had and issue and they did return them no issues.
If it were me I’d go to eBay and get a set of the wired nova pros or the wireless pros , with a warranty and then buy a set of wicked cushion ear pads and headband . Second option would be a set of razor black shark 2 wired headphones, for 100$ or buy the newer wireless model I believe the v 3 is 160$ and the v4 is 200$ . That my op I’ve had the nova pros for awhile now as a remote guy and they are my go to with the cushions , I still need to upgrade the headband though only thing I haven’t done. Edit : I bought my nova pro used on eBay with the warranty and warranties them when they had an issue . Got a second set and they have been solid
My problem is the razer software is garbage. I had black shark v2 USB and the software caused so many issues. Meanwhile hyper X software just works
I have these for a month and they are great. I used Razer Blackshark V2 2023 and they kept breaking so got the Asus Pelta. Everything about them is great but they dont sit as tight on my head (they dont fall just feel loose when I drink water for example) and microphone is in a weird place, kinda very high on the headset but you can just bend it as needed. Sound and mic is great.
