Razer Star Wars Headset vs AZIO GH808

[dwhite1313]

Hi all,

These 2 headsets are the same price (about $60) at my local shop. Which is better? Is Dolby 7.1 (Razer) substantially better than virtual 7.1 (AZIO)?

All help much appreciated.

Thanks.

Both are virtual(simulated surround) even though the Razers are pretty ugly for gaming will do ok. I prefer analog, discrete surround.
The Razer's have 50mm drivers(better for music) compared to the AZIO's 40mm drivers. Having never heard either, I would take the Razers.

Computer gaming doesn't take high end headphones/speakers to make them effective, you want the positional audio but if you are using them for other things like music, then it is better to get a better headset.

HAppy surround, the Prisoner...
