Should I go for this or the Razer Kraken 7.1??

Ive used both so hopfully this will help other users too, if you only game on PC then the Kraken is nice but Ive has a similar issue with Razer as ive had with TurtleBeach. Ear cups go bad randomly. The RIG is great if you want style with the ability to go anywhere with it, be it console, pc or mobile. Also you don't need a boom mic as the inline mic cable for cellphones detects and transmits audio insanely well. Id say RIG personally, plus user replaceable parts are plus for any gamer so you can always have spares!

No. Get the Logitech which I now have both. The Sykik to Me is not a good system. Very light weight too. The Logitech is very much better in every area. Great Sub too.

Rode VideoMic Pro (not the other two non-pro versions, which are not better than TM700's built-in mic) seems to be your best choice. $229 from B&H.

It is not natively 7.1 no, but, I use the software at the "Razerzone" web site under products and software called "Surround" to give just about any headset 7.1 surround sound. Works great with this one too!

The Kraken is ok for comfort. It's not the best. It seems like the more you break it in, the more comfortable it gets, though. The sound could also be much better for the price.

That is a great price but you have to compare apples to apples. There are different series that have different components like "glass aramid fiber" compared to "kevlar" for the subwoofer cones. Also, the amps are different and (believe it or not) the higher end speakers are HEAVIER so that they do not transfer sound waves through their bases or surrounding materials. I highly recommend that you also consider http://www.amazon.com/IsoAcoustics-ISO-L8R200-Large/dp/B009NWX2WO/ref=sr_1_2?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1378099542&sr=1-2&keywords=isoacoustics Isopacoustic monitor stands. I had "MoPads" and thought that they were good. It is downright amazing how well all of these components work. If you have the room, buy the 8's. I have the attenuators only up "3 detents" for normal use as nearfield monitors. Only if you have a very large studio and want serious thump, go for the 10's. In any amplifier, you always want to have more power than you need to use. The amps are cleaner, run cooler and last longer. Also, invest in good acoustics for your studio as well otherwise you will never get an accurate representation of your music. You may even want to visit one of my webpages at: http://aperfectdj.com/dj-corner. I am a singer, songwriter, guitarist, producer, engineer, live sound engineer and DJ. (My studio uses the KRK Rokit 8 G2's) BTW: The G2's mean "generation 2." Hope this helps.

Thanks for your response. I went ahead and got the Logitech and am happy with it, once I adjusted the speed of the cursor. I have a very light touch.

Yes, but keep in mind that some headsets DO NOT work properly with the adapter. The Razer Kraken Analog and most (or all) Bose headphones with in-line mic will not work due to low microphone sensitivity problems.

I f it's just a keyboard you are wanting the very best is Logitech Bluetooth Illuminated Keyboard K810 - at half the price and twice the quality. Look it up!

I advise IN FAVOUR of the Bravo Audio V1, as opposed to the Bravo Ocean Mini. I have both The V1 and Ocean Mini, and the V1 has much better sound (better bass, dynamics and crispness - not brightness). This is maybe due to the superior build of the tube installed in the V1 (EH 6922 gold pins).

Sorry I don't own the G230 so i cannot say. The reviews have been good for it for an entry level gaming headset. If you want to fork over a bit more cash I say go for the Logitech G35, which sounds amazing - voice quality wise and I'm sure comfort too. - My streamer uses it and I watch him daily.

I'd say this model is somewhat overkill for just plugging into a keyboard. I would suggest the much cheaper Sennheiser HD201, which is not only a very good value headphone, but is also much lighter and more comfortable than the SRH440.

The Razer Kraken works and this one should soon with a patch. It currently does not export sound to the headset but the mic works fine. It works awesome with a PC tho and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality headset. Caution it is wired and a bit short for my TV -> couch. The module is also 1/2 down the cord and pulls it down.Overall a great head set and no problems after 2 years.Reference: http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-Peripherals-Support/7-1-Razer-Megalodon-headset-anyone-gotten-anything-but-the-mic/td-p/42581223 The Razer Kraken works and this one should soon with a patch.

Just buy a Deck Legend. It's a bit more pricey but you get an absolutely insanely good keyboard and as the box says, "the last keyboard you'll ever own". After owning it for a few months now I could not agree with that boast more.

This is not the "Stealth" model. This model is pretty fantastic. I have the Nostromo which is now replaced by Tartarus which has the same "Stealth" keys. I prefer the mechanical personally. I am sure Amazon will get more of Razer's inventory due to Amazon being one of the better third party vendors.

Not sure about the Razer Kraken 7.1, but I tried my Logitech 930 5.1 wireless and they fit just fine. I bought the case for my new Audio Technica Pro Headphones to carry back and forth to work on my Harley and it works great I can't recommend them highly enough. Hope this helps...
