Good but not great

 

I've owned at least 20 headsets in my gaming, dare I say career? Most have been Logitech, some Microsoft, and a couple like the Creative Labs Sidewinder Pro (still my fav) My last headset was the Logitech h800 wireless. I really wanted to get away from...

Pros: They sound fantastic, literally the best headset I've owned to date. The head cans block a lot of background noise (kids, wife, animals, burglars) and have plenty of room for my dumbo ears. They appear to be very well built and my friends in...

Cons: They are freaking heavy! They fit way too snug, as many have reviewed. I am 5'11" 180lbs have a shaved head and they still fit too snug. I hope that I will get used to them otherwise, the kids will get another hand me down. The pleather does heat...

Great output, no input

 

I'm attempting an RMA on account of the broken microphone. So far, Razer support has been unresponsive.

Quite comfortable on my ears ; Sounds great

Microphone does not work ; Headband is a little tight--I'm glad I don't have a larger head

Worth the Money

 

It's very very comfortable, although it is very chunky it makes up for it with sound cancellation, amazing music quality, and long-term wear-ability. I game for about 4-5 or more hours at a time and I've never had a problem with them ; They do require...

the Mic is a little weird. I do like that it folds up but the housing feels a little wobbely and cheap. My friends over vent say I sound very clear but the overall volume kinda lacks but that doesnt mean they arent good

Best headset from Razer I have owned

 

I use the Creative Go! sound card. With this I can leave the mic inside the speaker and the bass really comes out. I use Skype, Vent and Mumble. Nobody can hear the music or game sound playing.

USE SOME TYPE OF SOUND CARD UNLESS YOUR MOBO SOUND IS GOOD ; Very comfortable ; I was a owner of the Carcharias headset and this one blows it out of the water ; Very nice bass ; Mice is clear

Nothing Really

Best headset I've ever owned

 

The most comfortable headphones I have ever owned. I have a big head so cheap headsets don't fit me well and I want full over-the-ear for sound muffling. The suspension system the Tiamat uses is conceptually like the one expensive aviation headsets use...

Nothing really, other than missing the fake 7.1 that the G35 could do. But the Tiamat sounds so good that I have gotten over it. Also, I'm expecting ear sweat in the summer but all full-ear headphones do that to some extent

Eggselent. So good I bought 2.

 

I use this with USB interface connector: Turtle Beach Amigo 2 USB NE # N82E16829118008.

The first pair was so good, i bought a 2nd pair. Since there 3.5mm jacks and not recognized by Steam games, i got a USB connector (listed below) and Steam recognizes USB connections, and all is good. Basically Plug and Play. You may need to select them...

Comfort and Quality

 

I have seen complaints about the sound quality and bass response, and I can only guess that these reviewers are using on-board sound or trying to plug these in to an unpowered sound source, this will not work, you need a powered source/pre-amp such as...

Incredibly comfortable, the cups are soft and pillowy and I can game for hours without needing to take them off. The sound quality is great, nearly on par with my old Turtle Beach headset that it replaced. Solid construction, looks good, and has a...

It's not wireless, but I knew that going in. Additionally the retractable microphone wiggles a little when it's extended and feels somewhat fragile. Also the microphone positioning is such that if I am looking downward at all and I turn my head to the...

very nice

 

Great Sound very nice microphone for both ends overall great headset

1. sometime if u shake ur head with the full extension of the mic it makes a weird sound on the other end of the call ; 2. it hurt my ears for the first week because the leather was brand new and not yet broken in ; 3. did know which direction the mic....

Solid Headset

 

I'll update this review if anything bad happens with the headset. I replaced a set of Turtle Beach Z6a's with this and the audio quality is comparably similar when set right. Hopefully the connections on this headset are made well and the Speakers/Mic...

Clean sound, Clear Mic, Light and comfortable. So far it's a very solid headset. The sound is great, out of the box it's horrible but once you play with audio settings on your computer like equalizer it's great. People who give this headset bad rep for...

None other than I wish it was USB powered to give it a little more kick audio wise. Should have added clear side view panes like the 7.1 version and the logos should light up green too. Nothing worth taking an Egg off for though

Easily the best headset I have owned for this price

 

My Newegg box said "May contain awesome". It should say "Contains awesome"

Amazing bass, high overall sound quality, long cord, VERY comfortable, many features, Quality microphone (which even can hide within one of the earmuffs!)

None. Like the title of this post, these are flawless
