Their last 7.1 headset was an overpriced price of crap. (I’m an owner). And they never mentioned that it was virtual surround. I would avoid razer headphones like the plague. Particually when they force you to use their crappy USB integrated sound card.
My brother uses a logitec one plugged into an old creative sound blaster, which is miles ahead of mine in terms of 3d sound and sound quality.
dont buy a USB headset if you want to use an internal sound card
you really should do your research before you buy something as expensive as the razer megalodon
if you did research you would have known that it has its own sound card and it is virtual surround sound
Razer had it on their website which maybe you could have looked at…
you just cant spend that much money on something without researching!
