Reviews of the Razer Barracuda HP-1 Gaming Headphones
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Razer Barracuda HP-1 Gaming Headphones provide excellent 5.1 surround sound for games. The removable microphone is great for online multiplayer and VoIP applications. The built-in amp is powered by a USB connection, rather than the AC power found on some competing models.
The Bad: The headphones don't sound as good with movies and music as they do with games. You must buy Razer's sound card to truly optimize audio.
The Bottom Line: The Razer Barracuda HP-1 Gaming Headphones are great for gameplay, but there are better options for music and movies.
