Non-Audiophile Gamer Review

Pros: True 7.1 surround sound, good isolation, retractable mic, can switch between headphone and speakers instantly

Cons: Bad for music, top band can be uncomfortable, can barely hear yourself talk while using it

The good: - 10 drivers (5 per ear) allow for amazing spatial awareness when watching movies/playing games. - The cushions on each ear are quite nice and provide a good amount of nose cancelling. - The mic is retractable for when not in use. - Allow for surround sound speakers to be hooked up and switched to with the press of a button. - Can be switched between 7.1 and 2.0 when necessary. - Can change the volume of sides, center, front, mic, subwoofer, and rear independently. - Removable side plates   The bad: - 7.1 has no bass while listening to music, 2.0 is better but it is still muddy and overall not a very good experience. - The top band has started to...

Quick review Razer Tiamat 7.1 Head phone

Posted
By tl13m

Pros: Good for gaming and movie

Cons: Bad for music

  This headphone have 10 DRIVERS so it's heavy and bulky headset   http://www.razerzone.com/tiamat/en/features   Gaming and movie (7.1 mode): enjoyable since you can spot location very easy.   Music (2.0 mode): if you listen music with 7.1 you can't not hear any bass. However, in 2.0 mode, the sound is extremly boomy and bloated.   Overall sound quality is muddy and bassy like a cheap close full can $ 50

Horrifying audio quality

By Runefox

Pros: Auto-adjusting headband, earcups very comfortable, stylish control module, speaker pass-through, microphone completely retracts

Cons: Terrible audio quality, extremely heavy

I picked these up knowing that they wouldn't come close to the quality level of my Sennheiser Momentum headphones, but needing a headset, I figured Razer's flagship would be up to the task. The packaging and control box were very nice, and the speaker pass-through dongle was a great touch. It's also rather comfortable, and the auto-adjusting headband is a pleasure to wear. The microphone stays out of the way, and slides up inside the headphones when not in use That said, though, the good ends there. In 2.1 stereo mode, the sound is very muffled, with almost no treble to speak of. The bass is muddy, and it really reminds me of the sound you get from PC headsets that cost a...
