I am not justifying razer and their pricing or how they launched this, but after buying the regular barracuda and watching videos on the other two, I think I fully understand the line better than most people I fully believe the X is for if you prioritize gaming over music (hence the boom mic) the regular is for a nice hybrid between gaming and music and I believe the pro is solely for music/lifestyle, with the ability to game on the side. Maybe someone who wants a work headsets for music and walking in the city, and then does a little bit of gaming at night after work

Exactly. Some of us prefer to hear our music noise cancelled, wireless, and have the bass options this headset provides. In fact, this headset is better than beats studio one, which costed 300$ just a couple years ago! People are not taking this headset into proper consideration. I easily think this is the best for people like me.

Here is another important tip for everyone who bought the headset. I wasn't very happy with the sound quality at first, so I turned off THX Spatial Audio completely. I use Dolby Atmos for Headphones for all my headsets. This is easy to download from Windows and offers the best sound quality in my opinion. The difference is really huge. It costs money but it's worth it.
@Matthew-nl9kd Жыл бұрын
Personally I'm more of a fan of DTS Headphone X, I found Dolby to boost the bass while DTS keeps the original sound signature. But I'd recommend making use of the free trials to try them both out first :) Either way they're great because you then own the license for life and can use it for any headphones, and on other PCs even as long as you keep the same Windows account.

There is 1 clear usage of ANC + 2.4ghz for me at home. I live near a park, during the summer there are so many live gigs, concerts etc. And the bass sounds traveling etc is maddening. I noticed ANC is the 1 thing that basically removes 90% of it all. However, there are like zero ANC headphones with 2.4ghz usb connection, all BT which is horrible when connected to PC. Delay feast. So in that regard I am tempted to try the razer for next summer, or if other models comes out with ANC + 2.4ghz. This summer I used normal BT ANC headphones but the delay was annoying af when connected to my pc (a BT5 dongle). Here's to more 2.4ghz headphones with ANC in 2023!

I completely agree. The ones I have now are also used for work. Sure, I look like a sci-fi cosplayer in conference calls but the bosses don't seem to mind. I find that I have to use software like Nvidia Broadcast to effectively remove background noise in the mic though. Most gaming headsets nowadays skip the ANC on the mic which makes it a bit of a chore to properly setup and tune the first time. Most Gaming headset ANC is aimned towards making the sound quality clear and the mic is rudementary. But once you have it down, yeah, it's nice. :D

@@unbiasOrbit I'm probably in the minority that don't mind the heavier headsets. Probably because of my bigger build, I'm not sure. But I do understand that Corsair's designs really are heavier than many in the market. I love them to bits but that weight is the most common detrator I hear from anything corsair offers. I'm debating if it's the battery or the metal frame though since they seem to often use aluminum parts in their construction. Razer often goes for lighter materials though and seem to have a good balance over all. If anything, my sole complaint with Razer is the leather ear cups. I have a rather acidic sweat so it degrades the leather in a matter of months and forces me to get new cups ever few months or so. Wish they had more microfiber offerings (which I think they do offer but not often enough) Edit: I hit the save button too early. Hahaha!

I also agree with the leather earcups part. That's why I got the Razer Blackshark V2, because they don't use leather earcups. And I also like the more neutral sound of the headset, it doesn't sound too much like a gaming headset with over exaggerated bass. Been loving it ever since I bought it!

In some scenarios the BS V2 Pro specially if you turn on the THX will sound interesting and not bad in general but I'm still impress and I even enjoy more the music on the Barracuda X which is 99 vs 199 on the BS V2 Pro.

Last couple years Razer products have generally been a disappointment. From putting those awful optical mouse switches on their new mice and keyboard, it's made everything feel cheaper and downgraded the feel aspect of their devices. It was a bummer when I bought the newer versions Deathadder and Huntsman only to realize that these optical switches are a no go. Really hard to get a feel for the actuation on optical even though they try to mimic the mechanical feel, it doesn't work at all. Opticals are some combination of mushy and crunchy I tried most of Razers new optical mice and ended up going back to a mechanical mouse. Same went for keyboards. Really hope they don't exclude making mechanical products going forward..

There isnt a boom mic on the pro because they are just rebranded xm3’s with a lower latency connection

Jeez the mic on the Pro sounds like absolute garbage. Why wouldn't they just include a removable boom mic.

the barracuda actually uses titanium drivers while the pros use bio-cellulose bio-cellulose

ive never had people say anything about my mic quality... got the mid level, the standard Barracuda. Theyre OK... definitly not worth the price TBH. I do love the smart switch, thats a nice feature go from PS4 to my phone simply. However not a fan of voice prompts. rather have a beep that doesnt mute game volume like the voice prompts do.
@stelonous2 жыл бұрын
That is an insanely crappy microphone for a flagship product. It truly amazes me that companies don't understand how important mic quality is.

Sennheiser HD560S - $149 for superior home gaming Sennheiser HD280Pro - $99 for LAN tournaments Mic that will sound better - $5 (I feel generous :P) The only thing Razer has on it is wireless :P You can also throw in Moondrop Chu $19.99 or Quarks $12.99 - to use outside or on LAN

I tried moondrop chu's, zero bass, and quite bright/treble happy, my blon bl03's sound better, albeit they're more expensive but the chu's didn't impress even though they resolve a lot of detail, don't just look at the graph

honestly with the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless hitting the market the rest of the manufacturers need to go back to the drawing board!!

In my opinion, I'd rather choose Barracuda X instead of Barracuda Pro one.

Razor headsets are not even close to the quality of their other products. Get a JBL Quantum headset instead. Much better sound AND best quality of headsets on the market.

Best to go with a fnatic react or a coolermaster headset for which i don't remember the specific model number though, all i know is that coolermaster model is a takstar just like hyperx so you're gonna get some good set of cans. You could go with phillips shp9500 is you can get it
@beliveinurself2 жыл бұрын
PC38X is the best. If you want closed back, the MH752 is well regarded (I own both). I personally also enjoy the H6PRO (closed). It doesn't sound as good as the two above, but comfort is *chef's kiss*.

Thanks for the responses :) I’ve been running Hyperx Cloud 2’s and they’ve been okay, nothing special but no complaints besides comfort to me and the volume slider and mic starting to break
