I have a Razer Kraken 7.1 USB and I'm happy with it. Sound is good. I can't really judge the mic-sound, that's up to you all who can hear me talk :biggrin:
I think I payed 60€ or 70€ for it :ummmm:

Last year I bought the HyperX Cloud II headset & I prayed 83 euros for it.
I like the flexible mic boom at least till I sit on it & bust the whole set.
It's also 7.1 USB. The 4-conductor jack from the headset plugs into the USB dongle which has some controls on it.
That connection went bad on me so I had HyperX send me a new dongle. That didn't help so I soldered on a new jack (NOT easy). Turns out something was not standard length, either the jack or probably the dongle, so I went with a store-bought splitter & now I run straight audio cables to the motherboard. There are NO controls on the earmuffs so I have to do without a mute button now. :dash1:

Gr0uNDh0g, your mic sounds excellent. :ok:

Good choice. Madrocker also has a Razer Kraken 7.1 USB :good: (Or did you order a different brand/type?)
