I recently raised an issue on here regarding the BlackShark V3 Pro headset. I experienced nothing but fast, genuine care and support. Mine was an issue with the sidetone that unfortunately it was unusable for me and I had to return it, but everyone involved from the Razer support team was fast to re

So true. I wish I had read up before wasting money on my Razer BlackShark V3 Pro. My mic works in games, but no where else (I need this for my job). Now that Microcenter carries proper head phones brands, there is no reason to waste time with garbage vendors like Razer.

The Razer BlackShark V3 Pro is a phenomenal choice for FPS gaming because its updated "Superwideband" mic offers broadcast-quality clarity that stands out in the $200–250 range.

Absolutely not, I’ve owned 3 HyperX headsets over the past 5 years. All of them have broken, mic stopped working on all of them. I just bought a Razer BlackShark V3 Pro, hoping it holds up longer.

Razer headsets used to really suck but they've has actually stepped up their headset game A LOT in the past year or so (just as they have with mice and keyboards over the past few years). I have essentially all the top wireless gaming headsets (as well as a couple expensive wired audiophile headsets

Razer’s old headsets sucked and were very gimmicky but Razer’s new BlackShark V3 pros are actually some of the best wireless gaming headsets with a mic on the market right now. Pretty much all the audio/tech review sites that actually scientifically test this stuff (frequency range/accuracy, imaging

Stealth Pros get a 4 out of 5 for me in imaging and 3 out of 5 in soundstage. Soundstage is only a 3 since I HAVE experience with open backs, if you have never used open backs the soundstage would be a 4. They are marginally wide enough for close backs, but the imaging is pretty excellent when EQed

When is Audeze Maxwell 2 releasing and will it be significantly lighter on the head so it doesn’t give headaches and pains on the head cuz they are full on bricks on the head with less fragile drivers and way better audio quality that allows for up to 24 bit 96hz lossless audio and comes with a DAC
