What customers say about "Key Specs"

Razer Tiamat 2.2 v2 Gaming Headset

The build is really solid with steal beams for support and heavy feeling tough plastic.
The headset is very comfortable to wear for extended periods.
They love the fit, comfort and noise-cancelling feature.
Noise cancelling is alright. Very minimumal sound can be head. Just like wearing ear muffs.
Yeah they have bass, similar to beats, but absolutely horrible audio, to the point it’s hard to understand people talking because it’s not very clear and it sounds unnatural.

What customers say about "Headset"

Razer Tiamat 2.2 v2 Gaming Headset

Great headset for the price! Can't beat it really. It's very comfy.
Good headphones. Much improved sound quality over my previous set.
Works really well, super comfortable, lightweight. Definitely a good compromise if you can't afford to go full 7.1.
I have a small head so I had to return these. They are super bulky.
Only thing that I found tedious about it is if I have the volume wheel turned all the way up my playback audio begins to bleed real bad into the microphone.

What customers say about "Microphone"

Razer Tiamat 2.2 v2 Gaming Headset

The mic picks up well. Sound quality is what you would expect from a stereo headset at this price.
Mic quality is actually quite sound for a headset. It's no desk mic but it gets the job done well and clearly. You'll like this.
These looks great and sound great. The microphone is very crisp and clear.
Sound quality is fantastic and the mic seems to be amazing.
The mic audio is pretty darn good and the background noise reduction is really good.

What customers say about "Features"

Razer Tiamat 2.2 v2 Gaming Headset

High quality headset, great sound, multi-functional.
Very comfortable, works with my xbox one X with the x box adaptor. Surround sound is crisp and mic works great.
Best headphones I've ever owned! The sound quality is amazing, especially the bass boost.
Worked good for about 60 days. Then the right driver stopped working. Jank. Spend extra money and get a better brand in headphones.
Nice, but not powerful enough for a hardcore gamer.
