  • Abstract:  Otherwise, this is definitely one of the better USB headset implementations available today. You have very little control over sound reproduction, but fortunately Razer’s presets are plenty palatable, with great spatial separation and range. (Note: Big-headed types rejoice!

  • Comfort, USB Sound card, Feature rich, Driver less, Market leading sound quality for a USB headset, Brilliant microphone, Well built, Virtual 7.1 surround sound
  • Virtual 7.1 surround sound, Expensive, Shows fingerprints and dirt fast
  • The Megalodon is yet another good product from Razer, but it is only barely worth the Recommended Award in my opinion. Yes the USB Sound card is nifty but it comes at almost the same cost as an X-Fi XtremeMusic sound which is miles ahead in terms of so...
