Razer’s does a bang-up job in terms of speakers and headphones. We’ve recently reviewed theHammerhead and it was an incredible experience.

The Kraken 7.1 usb-powered headset is just as good, except for the fact that it made my ears hurt. Headphones are just too snug on me, but I’ll let it pass because of the excellent surround sound. The Kraken (I love the name) is priced at R1179 (US$99) and is worth the investment. While you may think that dropping a dime on a headset is a bad idea, the instant you slip these puppies onto your hearing flaps you’ll think, “Damn, money well spent.” Now, it’s not real surround sound, it’s virtual.
