"BRILLIANT microphone output"
"the mic on blackshark v2 pro is by far the best I’ve personally used on a headset. ... I’ve bought too many headsets throughout the years looking for one with a good mic and this was the one for me."
"For me mic monitoring is an important aspect, and it also is much better."

"Directional audio is great."
"I like the audio features it has in some games ... playing like counter strike I can even estimate the distance of other players based on the sound as I use like a THX environmental mode profile ... it's spatial so I hear if someone is also above me or under me"
"Has great sound quality"

"do not get the blacksharks. i have them. have had to get them replaced twice because the plastic on them breaks so easily. ... I don't abuse mine either. I've never dropped them at all and they've both managed to break on the plastic parts where the L and R are indicated."
"The Razer Blackshark V2 Pros broke on me after only 6 months. ... The build quality is extremely cheap ... the V2 Pros have a design flaw where the wire mounts for the earcups are attached to the headband with metal screws into a plastic clamp what will break."
"the Blackshark v2 pro broke at the hinge just right after warranty expired"

"Sound is horrible ... sounds like speakers are really far away ... also QUIET"
"it is god awfully quiet. ... I even fine tuned the sound and tweaked settings to get the best out of it, still very quiet. ... Or at least on my ps5 it is"
"I basically kept turning both of the headphones up trying to feel the bass, in game or in music in a movie where you are supposed to get pumped. I felt like I was being treated to nice sounding polite bass and not thumping YEAH bass."

r/HyperX • Why isn't there a SINGLE review of the Cloud II Core Wireless?? ->I've had mine for a little over 6 months and love the sound. Definitely has some "quirks" and app is kind of buggy. I use it for single player games and movies/music but daily the Nova 7's cause of simultaneous Bluetooth (phone/pc) for work and fps games. OOB EQ on both is decent for most but i tuned it and Nova 7's to my preference. Go check out GadgetryTech. He does very in depth reviews on audio gear from both a gamer and audiophile perspective. \-For OP's question, I suggest checking out used Nova 7x on amazon. If your in the U.S. market, they can often be found for under $100. I personally like the Sonar software but only after I learned how to use it properly lol. Razer Blackshark line is also good and has an awesome mic but I opted for for the Nova 7's for the slightly more pronounced bass. Both are comfortable but the Blackshark V2 Pro were probably the most comfortable that I've tried. For reference, I've tried Corsair HS80, Razer Blackshark V2 Pro, Arcits Nova 7, Nova Pro wireless, Audeze Maxwells. I cant speak to the other ones you mentioned since I don't really have any personal experience with them. If you do go with the Nova 7's and have larger ears like I do, I suggest upgrading stock pads to something thicker like what Wicked Cushions offers if you are sensitive to the drivers making contact on your ears.
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Best wireless headset for gaming currently? ->Please my brothers in christ. Anybody owned g pro x and x2 wireless ?? I bought g pro x wireless. Sound is good but volume and BASS is lower than my cheap headphones. I bought razer blackshark v2 pro. Sound is horrible, sounds like speakers are really far away, itchy foam, also QUIET. G pro looks 1000x more premium. I basically kept turning both of the headphones up trying to feel the bass, in game or in music in a movie where you are supposed to get pumped. I felt like I was being treated to nice sounding polite bass and not thumping YEAH bass. I have ordered razer kraken v3 pro (my headset is v3x wired) and I'm hoping it sounds good BUT I am reading the x 2 has more bass and is better than the g pro x. The v3pro apparantly has lots of problems. Will I suffer from lack of volume and bass with the pro x 2 ?
r/LogitechG • Review: Logitech G Pro X2 Lightspeed Headset ->I have a razer blackshark v2 pro, best mic i've ever had, and they are comfy and sounds good, just a little bit heavy after a few hours
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->I am rocking the Blackshark V2 pro wireless and love it. What makes people dislike it? It's not expensive either.
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->After gaming with a wired headset all my life, I purchased a wireless headset 6 months ago and I’ll never look back. After several days of research, I went with the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro. The Razer Synapse software is a bit challenging, but when you get the hang of it; it has a BRILLIANT microphone output, sound quality, and noise cancelling features. Simply one of the best purchases I’ve made!
r/buildapc • What's the Best Wireless Gaming Headset in Your Opinion? ->do not get the blacksharks. i have them. have had to get them replaced twice because the plastic on them breaks so easily. get something else.
r/VALORANT • Best Headset? ->I don't abuse mine either. I've never dropped them at all and they've both managed to break on the plastic parts where the L and R are indicated.
r/VALORANT • Best Headset? ->If you can stretch your budget, my recommendation would be the **Astro A50 X.** I'm recommending it based on two factors: comfort and mic. It's generally rated as comfortable by reviewers and it's not very heavy compared to other good headphones. It also has one of the best mics, even considering wired options. A great budget option would be the **Razer BlackShark V2 Hyperspeed**. It also has a top of the line mic for a fraction of the price. Just don't expect the same sound quality from the headphones. That's not to say it's bad though. It still has a well-tuned frequency response. You could buy the **BlackShark V2 Pro** if you want to detach the mic for outdoor use, but I can't really recommend it due to the inferior wireless performance to the newer Hyperspeed and the massive price difference just for that detaching the mic. Lastly, you could also check the **Razer Barracuda X Chroma** if you like its design better. But for a similar price to the Hyperspeed, I don't think it does audio quality better, especially in the mic aspect.
r/buildapc • What's the Best Wireless Gaming Headset in Your Opinion? ->I switched from pc38x to the razer blackshark pro v2 not too long ago, they’re both good headsets imo so maybe try the pc38x like others are suggesting, I’d say they’re more comfortable than the blackshark v2 pro, but maybe it’s just my ears. I will say though, the mic on blackshark v2 pro is by far the best I’ve personally used on a headset. I’ve bought too many headsets throughout the years looking for one with a good mic and this was the one for me. PC38x’s mic is decent, but I felt like it was too quiet
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Good headphones for fps gaming? ->Razer Blackshark V2 Pro is the one for me and my large-sized head.
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->i think the razer blackshark v2 pro is nice. it’s what i have, my mom bought it for me a few christmasses ago :))
r/buildapc • Whats the Best Gaming Headset to Buy Right Now? ->I love my black shark v2 pro. Wish it had Bluetooth. The 2023 model sucks though.. they fucked it up. I need to buy a spare before mine breaks I think.
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->Razershark V2 Pro is what I run. They’re on sale or at least they were 40% off
r/CODWarzone • My headset died so I need suggestions for new one ->Blackshark v2 pro is my favorite the only ones I can wear for a while without ears being bothered
r/Corsair • These are without a doubt the best gaming headphones I’ve ever used (HS80 MAX) ->Do NOT get the razor black shark pro. It’s a great headset and I love it, but it is god awfully quiet. I even fine tuned the sound and tweaked settings to get the best out of it, still very quiet. Or at least on my ps5 it is, Xbox may be better but it’s a gamble
r/DayzXbox • What headset would you recommend? ->blackshark v2 pro should be in top 3, sorry...
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->i’ve had mine since 2022 and zero issues. i don’t abuse my headset, but ive dropped it probably 5+ times per year
r/VALORANT • Best Headset? ->I'm kinda happy with my razer blackshark V2, most comfortable headset I've ever owned and I like the audio features it has in some games, playing like counter strike I can even estimate the distance of other players based on the sound as I use like a THX environmental mode profile, it's spatial so I hear if someone is also above me or under me.
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->I bought the razer v2 but I didn’t like the fit and it sounds worse than my xm4 and now I’m just waiting for the cloud 2 but if they sound the same as razer then I will just buy a vmoda mic for my xm4
r/buildapcsales • [Headphones] Drop + EPOS H3X Gaming Headset | Audiophile | Headphones | Closed Back Headphones $39.99 ->Omg, i got the headset a few days ago and I have been so dissapointed with the sound, like you mentioning the bass is absolutely to strong and the sound quality is garbage, cant wait to try this tutorial out, thanks! I was just about to go and return it and go back to a Razer blackshark which I had prior to getting this!
