Krakens are the ONLY decent headphones Razer produces, and I mean Decent at most

300 for and aluminumesque finish. Razer audio has let me down time after time after time, out of the 3 razer headsets I've owned I have RMA'd them a total of 4 times and had to settle with a lachesis that was only half dead in one side. I bought a pair...
