Razer kraken pro here, i think it's wonderful, it also has live monitoring without any delay so I can hear myself a little bit, so I know when I'm breathing directly into the mic for example.
I have razer kraken wired version bc tbh I can't hear the difference between something like that and the audiophile headphones. I turned off the bass boost and it sounds great to me for what I need it for - game audio and being in voice with my friends - and I like a built in mic instead of a desktop stand mic. Background isolation seems good as it doesn't transmit my bf talking in the same room. Comfy enough to wear for 8 hours at a time also, but I dont wear glasses so if you do can't vouch for that.
I had a pair of Razer Krakens (wired) back in 2015 and they were absolutely spectacular for non gaming use. I've used a lot of flagship headphones and I still look back really fondly on the pair.
I've had 2 gaming headsets, first it was a Steelseries Siberia, then a Razer Kraken, but then I got to know someone at work who is into sound. He convinced me to buy a HD 650 and by god it was a different tier. It was so comfortable, but 5-6 years ago I've changed it to a HD 800, purely because the same friend sold it to me £500, pretty much half price and he took good care of them too.
I got my razer kraken 6 years ago for 80€ and still love them
Razor Kraken is good Edit: whatever you can't win on Reddit I give up. Every post I try to post I'm not allowed to talk in the comments because of bad karma and the ones that I am allowed to talk in everybody always gives me negative reviews no matter what I say. I'm sorry I can't afford beats by Dre but if you're looking in the $50 tier The kraken is a good headset I've owned one now for over 2 years and it's just fine for playing call of duty it has good base and good quality microphone but yeah if you're going to compare it to some $400 headset probably not
Had great luck with razer’s mice in the past so i recently picked up their kracken headset and its good so far
I have the artis nova 7 from an older gen and have been the best so far. Super light and comfy but sturdy. Had razer kraken before that and were decent hut prefer the steelseries
Seconding this, I have a kraken headset, and while functionally it is fine, the headband material has begun to degrade and is now flaking off. The same thing happened with the original ear pads but they are replaceable, unfortunately the headband isn't. Had they not used this thin faux leather the headset would have lasted a lot longer without issue.
Razer krakens are good, not super cheap but comfy and good quality. I use the razer black shark, which is also good (sounds amazing and is very comfy and wireless has a long battery life and fast charge time) but I don’t like the mic as much because it can’t really be moved out of the way.
