I adore how Dan just says it how it is and has *no* issues with tearing things apart like this, it's so damn refreshing to see! Praise be Dan!
Yes ! AND he doesn’t come off as a douche while doing it. Like, it’s not « my taste is objectively better » but rather « I tested it as scientifically as I can in the hour I’ve got with it, here is what I think about it »
Fucking oath, dan is quickly becoming a highlight for me aye,
Yep... not a hype man, just saying how it is.
When it isn't Dan hosting an audio product, you know it's sponsored 😂
In Dan we pray!
Truly one of the soundbars to ever exist
very true
i morbed a man at 10:31 pm 2003 off the side of a road 17 miles away from las vegas
Why this sound of that... Morbin time life changing line
it's sure to make one razillion dollars
It has a beautiful frame, astoundingly compact, and it has sound.
I disagree with the "7.1" for a different reason. There is a midrange, tweeter, and passive radiator for each of the left and right channels. It's 2.1. They are probably just doing virtualization like they do with headphones to make them "7.1".
No shit Sherlock
Definitely!
I think only someone who works in or has grown up knowing marketing from the last 10 years would respond passive aggressively to you. I 100% agree. the X.1 has always been, the number of channels, no matter how many speakers you slap on a channel. left and right is 2 channels. Left and right with a tweeter, woofer, and sub in each cabinet, 6 speakers total, still 2 channels. Three pairs of speakers with 3 drivers each is not 18.1, its 2.1 (assuming there is a dedicated sub channel and not just a crossover in the cabinet, then its simply stereo.)
Rather then killing the messenger, the most useful thing I learned today was when faced with "users want more channels" instead of investing in making a good product, Razer bought THX so they can change the naming convention and standard. Like the soundbar they made, the THX branding is now worthless to a consumer.
@@JayDDubbleyuh THX doesn't make the standards or naming conventions for surround audio and hasn't meant anything since 2002 when creative bought them, they bought THX for the same reason creative did, so they can imply their product as compliant with the THX quality assurance system by slapping the logo on it
You only have two ears yet you don't hear in stereo. Your brain can figure out where sound is coming from based on delay. You can also trick your brain into thinking sound is coming from somewhere else. That's why you only need 2 speakers in a headphone for true surround sound. The better the algorithm, the better it also works for a soundbar. Simple as that.
Dan is freaking amazing. His honesty and sense of humor is just pure gold.
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
I never knew that Dan shitting on bad audio equipment is something I would enjoy BUT here I am again and happy that I watched it
nah most of us know how terrible razer audio hardware is....
cant believe i fall for that too when i was an edgy teen
@@5at5una It's fine. Experiencing garbage helps you appreciate the better stuff
Dan coming with that audio expertise we all need. Thanks for being honest and saying it's crap. Sorry razor
Except he doesn't know what passive radiators are.... thankfully the editor did.
What he has is far from "expertise." He calls things by the wrong name and seems to not understand a lot about how the speaker hardware works.
@@Mr0Tubby Doesn't make this any better though.
@@Mr0Tubby what things?
This guy is clueless.
More dan please, been watching as an audio engineer and acoustician for years now and seeing somone with more advanced knowledge makes me very happy.
I want Dan in way more videos. He's so upfront, honest and adds a perfect level of humour to a still fairly serious review!
Way More Videos!!

@@vagamer522 Its his money lol
@@luckymark571 ITS MY COMMENT
Could listen to this guy talk for hours on end. As an audio fan myself, this is the best we've gotten so far from the LTT family at reviewing audio products in detail. HUGE kuddos.
Dan called THX spatial audio "Dolby Atmos" and proceeded to say dolby atmos requires speakers around the listener in order for it to work, when dolby atmos is basically upwards firing speakers to simulate a "surround Sound" effect, previous people from LTT don't make errors like that, i wouldn't call him the best and i'm surprised they didn't re shoot that section
@@boxposed3855 sometimes people slip up, I think the editor caught it. If they do the same thing over a longer period of time? Okay then i'm right there with you.
@@ExarchGaming yes people slip up but the entire video he was calling it Dolby Atmos not THX Spatial Sound
Why does it matter, it's a little thing. All the codecs and technologies can be confusing. I absolutely love these audio videos with Dan so far
i have a feeling between scenes they must of been talking about dolby atmos vs THX spatial or something since he never made the mistake then all of a sudden started calling it dolby atmos. just my guess.
Listening to Dan pull zero punches on crap products is now one of my favorite things.
Man I love your short circuits! Lots of sause, quiet and paused man rage… just awesome
I like Dan being so hard on the audio quality because he use to do it for a living.
What is it he used to do? And what does he do for LTT now?
"use to do it for a living" and still doesn't know that THX is owned by Razer.
@@MikeMessiah If you appreciate good audio it isn't that strange to forget Razer even exists.
@@MikeMessiah its the same as a chief never wanting to eat at mcdonalds.
@@MikeMessiah I mean I guess it also depends on what exactly he was working on? Specific company structures might not have been relevant to his job.
As Alex once said: Don’t buy gaming speakers/headphones/mics, get used audio/music-centric headphones/speakers/mics.
Wouldnt the old analog connectors be an obstacle, though?
And he's god damn right. My old Genelec 1029As (made from 1995 until 2005) are the best 400€ I paid for audio stuff. They're insane.
@@bruceluiz not all the time, that also heavily depends on what you want to do.
Used headphones would be fucking nasty dude.
Two completely different price points, my friend
I have had this for a few months now, and I don't think it's that bad at all. From a basic everyday consumer stand point (if you have the money for it, it is too pricey) I have noticed that the "surround sound" type feeling is heavily effected by the angle of the sound bar. My chair height allows the angled sound bar to be aimed at "the center of my head" (I guess) and it really does sound like it's behind me as well. Especially with movies, more so than games (which I totally understand as an issue). I did notice, like in the video, the software randomly gets hiccups when adjusting the eq, I have also noticed all of the lower sounds drop randomly (when I first got it, hasn't happened in a while). I'm by no means an audio expert, or even an audio novice, in fact I know nothing about audio. Just figured I would toss in my "everyday consumer" opinion!
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
@@OpptimusPrime1 you do need the razer software (which is free, no purchase necessary) downloaded to mess with sound settings. If that's what you mean.
@@nikoder8790 in your opinion, would this be a good purchase for the average person
I like Dan. He's a great addition to the team. He's so knowledgeable about Audio.
I love how Dan feels like a very calm person but is very passionate in his hate against shit like this
as he should. for just a little more money you could get real audio gear that will outperform and OUTLAST these.
@@iHasCaek You don't even have to spend more... For less than $100 you could get a set of Mackie CR3's or PreSonus E3 monitors that will blow this soundbar out of the water and at least give you proper left & right separation
@@seaghan Or if you want to fill the budget get a pair of used LSR 305's and be absolutely blown away.
1:00 My man inspecting the sound bar like he's a soldier inspecting a gun
Your comment made me laugh! 👍
It's so great to have a true audio nerd in house. The breakdowns are simple and concise. No words to muddle, just the truth from someone who knows.
I doubt a true audio nerd would confuse passive radiators for audio channels and would be able to deduce that 7.1 in this kind of system means it's virtualized surround coming from a 2.1 setup.
@@TheDeltaMoo he literally says several times "there's no way this is a 7.1". This whole script is basically throwing it in the face of this shithouse product, being dumb and buying dumb
I love everyone from LMG equally but I dunno now. Dan is really becoming my favorite. I love his audio reviews because I know NOTHING about it but he explains everything so eloquently. Please keep up the audio equipment and please give some great audio recommendations.
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.

This is a 2.1 system that tries to sound like a 7.1
For those that don't know, you don't count the number of drivers to find out how many channels a speaker is, as multiple drivers can be attached to the same channel.
This one, has 4 front facing drivers, and 2 passive radiator in the back, passive radiator don't do anything on there own, and uses the pressure created by the active speakers in the speaker enclosure to give a better and deeper base.
Passive radiators are a big reason why many compact bluetooth speakers have really big sound for there size.
so its a 4.1?
Most soundbars only have 2 channels, one for right and one for left. this makes it a 2.0, but when you add a subwoofer it will be 2.1
4.1 is somewhat rare, but i have seen it sometimes, and have become more popular in recent time.
@@prawny12009 no. passive radiators do not count as speakers
Maybe 5.1 at best? 4 drivers at the front, 1 left, 1 right, 2 centermost as center; 2 drivers at the back (of the soundbar), 1 as "rear left" and 1 "rear right"? Optimistically saying anyway.
I would've assumed it is just 2.1 with some clever stereo processing, like "7.1 surround sound" gaming *headphones*
@@grdprojekt no its 2.1
there is a left and right “full range” driver on each side, a tweeter on each side to produce the high end for that channel. Tweeters do not count as seperate channels because they carry the same signal (Left or Right) just filtered. On the back there are two bass radiators, these also do not count as seperate channels, they just allow the bass that builds up from the front 2 speakers to project out of the soundbar.
Plus the sub
it ticks all the razer checkmarks:
overpriced, check
mediocre preformance, check
overhyped, check
promise the world, check
under deliver on those promises, check
RGB for the real gamerz, check
shitty bloatware dependency, check
Embarrassing construction quality for anything that doesn't project lights...
check.
wait,
They managed to f*ck up even those, at least on my mouse.
garbage? check.
Breaks minutes after the warranty expires, check.
@@corktail7900 don't forget the bloatware only runs on Windows so if you ever want to connect these to anything else, you're only going to get the default sound profile which, as we learned here, stinks.
I would love to see LTT do a round-up of computer speakers at various price points. It's so hard to find decent reviews & comparisons online, and so many sets sound just like the generic speakers from the 90s but in black housings instead of beige
I love just how hard he's trying to NOT hate it. The fact that Linus is telling him he's going to have it, just friggin hilarious. 🤣
So glad you guys finally have someone that has more to say than,
Mmmyes... this is sound, sounds decent/bad against my gamer headset.
Soundbars for gaming monitors? Now that's a... bizarre idea. The correct approach would be to just use two speakers and maybe a subwoofer. Place the speaker cones at ear-height and you get all the 3D stereo imaging you'd ever need. The subwoofer can just go on the floor like usual. Use it as a footstool.
Exactly
Agreed. Also i think that adding some bass shakers to gaming chair might be cool for gaming. 🙂
@@nebulous962 I get enough of those after eating pizza hut.
I use a soundbar with my pc, it is the best audio decision I've ever made, the sound wraps around you instead of having 2 spots
You can get a couple of Yamaha HS fives. Two professional studio monitors that are widely popular within the professional music industry for $150 each… That’s $50 more than this joke of a sound system
Nice job. Love how you broke down the speaker. Keep it up. Nice to know you do videos. I just thought you helped Linus at home.
I love the "I imagine they work independent of each other." then looks at the camera like *please don't sue me*
We need more Dan in audio device reviews!
Finally someone that properly reviews the razer soundbar. I'm in no way an audio expert, but I've seen many videos of people praising this speaker, without having the knowledge to test it. Especially because of its price.
Having owned the previous version, I'm going to say that Dan is being much too nice about it. He didn't even mention the likely complete lack of longevity.
Except every video I've seen says the opposite and this is just continuing that trend. I bought it and love it, but to each his own. It perfectly fit my scenario. I didn't want speakers all over my desk, all I wanted was a soundbar, thats it, no more. As best I can tell I had 2 options, and 1 wasn't available to me.
@@stayupthetree I can definitely understand that problem, as I also swapped out my desktop speakers for a Dell Soundbar that clips to the bottom of my main monitor and is good enough for listening to podcasts and similar, but I also only paid about 40 bucks for it.
I don't think 250 bucks is a good price for this Soundbar, at all, but if it's the only fitting option in town it's hard to argue against it. My option only worked for me because I have a Dell monitor, the thing can't clip to any other monitors.
@@RAHelllord yeah before that I was using the audio coming out of one of my monitors, which I don't have to tell you, really sucked. I use headphones for gaming 90% of the time, this is basically a casual listener thing for me. Living room I have a Samsung Q950A for the beast mode.
Dan looks so excited to be a host, and well, we are all excited to have him here as well.
Give Dan more of these! Brilliantly to the point and so deadpan
Thanks for the review, I’m glad that negative reviews are being published as well as good ones. Few notes though, the drivers an the back are most likely passive radiators to help the front speakers extend a little lower. Second, the subwoofer frequencies (80hz and below) are mostly omnidirectional so you shouldn’t be able to tell where they are coming from. If they sound like they are coming from the bar, then the integration was done well. Best way to know the difference is to just unplug the sub and listen for the crossover frequency. Frequency response charts would be great too
If this is anything like my Razer headphones, I think I know why the EQ wasn't working at first!
For the EQ to have an effect, you need to set Windows's audio output device to "Razer Synapse Speaker" instead of "Razer *device name*"
Dan should read this comment and redo this speaker review yo!
Another brilliant video with Dan. Love how he doesn't mince words.
I got home, checked my subscriptions and there were so many vids I wanted to watch, but the moment I've seen Dan, I knew this is what I need to watch tonight.
Dan is the soothing voice we all need in our lives sometimes. Love it!
Really good to see an honest review. It feels way more trustworthy with some negative reviews sometimes.
An awesome idea for labs: after testing the frequency response on products, showing what EQ settings make each products sound the “best it can for gaming/movies/music”
though it may be subjective, it can at least be a starting point for fine adjustment per user
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
I really enjoy watching videos about audio products hosted by Dan. Please give him more air time! :D
I have the original Leviathan from razer and in order to turn up the bass from the sub you have to hold down the dolby button and then use the volume buttons to raise or lower the sub. The original has optical in 3.5mm in and then a barrel plug for power and the sub cable no usb connections at all.
I have the Leviathan V1. It filled its niche for it's time.
It uses Bluetooth/Aux/Optical and no Razer Synapse or RGB. Picked it up on a sale a few years ago for around half the price of the V2.
I picked up a v1 used for right around $100 CAD and I'm really happy with mine honestly
The bass on the v1 is way better than v2
Glad I found this video. Was about to pull the trigger on these v2s. You talked me out of it
Absolutely love how he just tore it to pieces at the end of the video, lmao.
I've bought a sound blaster X katana 3 years ago and I love it. Beautiful sound, nice compact subwoofer that sounds great and it's not that expensive either. It has simple rgb too so that's kind of cool and many different inputs
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
@@OpptimusPrime1 tbh, the sound blaster software can be a bit funky sometimes, but that's all you need, be sure it's plugged into a pc and not a console obviously, but the button on the bar itself or remote can change the eq as well
Yes. A great audio reviewer. Thank you!
I have been thinking of getting a soundbar - no specific one but as a gamer of course I'd consider a gaming peripheral company offering - thank you for this brutal and honest review saving me some cash
At one point Dan wanted to open it to see the driver array. Back in the old days we shone a flashlight through the plastic grill to see inside. Thanks for the review. As always I found the review entertaining.
Dan is really symphatic (while destroying the product 😀)
There should be a theme or sound bite whenever a wild linus appears
Dan has quickly become one of my favorite hosts for LMG!
okay this man is legit, just straight up raw/say it like it is , like a well done improv tech review.
The look of disgust on Dan’s face as the Crab Rave began was gold.
This is an RGBar.
If you've got the space for it. Try using old home stereo equipment. I use an old Technics SA-5170 and passive speakers I got for around $40 (Hell, the amp was practically free cause I helped a friend clean out his basement and found it), and it all sounds great, miles better than any "gaming" speakers you could buy new at these prices, probably higher. Plus, no stupid software to download and sign into to configure, its all physically right there. All you really need is a rca to aux adapter. Start by asking around family and friends to see if they have anything older stuff laying around.
I was not expecting you to go in so hard at the end, but I respect it.
Love how Dan just picks up the sound bar every two seconds lol
The first one is amazing optical in an aux great for music and games but definitely not surround sound like they claimed 5.1 i think
Dan is awesome, give him more speakers/audio equipment for videos.
I like the intensity they decided to throw in a couple of the videos!
This guys brilliant. Tearing stuff apart with authority.
Would love to see Dan do a review on reasonably priced desktop speakers
y'know its gonna be a great video when its something to do with razers attempts at audio products
The brutal honesty gets an instant sub. More reviews need to be like this. Too often a product reviewer, I believe, will soften their final opinion to remain brand friendly. This review, was not that. I look forward to watching more genuine reviews!
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
That was one of the best reviews I have ever watched. Great Job.
Gotta love Dan:
"OH *impressed sound* feels... cheap and plastic-y"
Dan is fast becoming one of my favorite hosts on Ltt. Love it
Lovin Dans honesty & expertise. Thank you for the review!
Every single lmg video: once the lab gets set up we’ll test this
I would like to see Dan reviewing the Sound Blaster Katana soundbar, I've heard good things about it but I like Dan's way to review audio stuff a little more than those people
I own the old one and its still rocking , its a beast of its own
I had a headset that said it was 7.1 from razer but I had to download their 7.1 software to activate it. And if you wanted thx audio you had to buy that separately
i was always skeptical about single unit surround. And yeaaa, He confirmed it.
i always love me a video about audio and its even better when i see dan!
The cheaper bose desktop speakers have done me great for years and were like 90 bucks, highly recommend for a cheaper decent option
There's a new sound option in Windows, "Enhance Audio." You can find it by clicking the details arrow on your audio output device in Sound Settings (System>Sound>Properties?) Might be worth investigating.
That’s only for sound effects… that setting doesn’t do anything on its own
Dan's understanding of sound really helps these reviews.
I have the OG Leviathan, the v1 version and I must say it still holds up today
Its really great having a person who actually knows what they're doing reviewing audio products.
I bought this product but EQ doesnt work . Do i need to buy an other software or did i do something wrong. I connected it with cable not using bluetooth.
Recently got a ~$100 set of active bookshelf speakers and I was surprised at how good they sound compared to my ~150 sennheisers, I didn't think I'd use speakers much but it really does just sound that much better when the speakers aren't strapped to your head
I have to recommend the Topping VX1 as a usb audio DAC. Usb to the unit from your pc, then speaker wires to your speakers. Good little unit that used to go for around $100 and wipes the floor with anything in the $500 range when paired with most reasonable speakers. I use mine with a pair of Monitor audio silver 6's and it is simply amazing for the price. It has dedicated power and as long as the speakers you run arent some inefficient behemoths, you'll have volume to spare.
I use an Altec lansing ATP3. Yeah I know that it's *that* old (2001 release year I think) but we got it in around 2009. It has been through 2 computers that have already broke and it's still working on my modern machine with amazing audio
The unboxing portion of this video is like a fever dream
I would really like it if you guys would review the Creative Katana v2 and compare it to this one. Also maybe the Polk MagNifi Mini as well; it's not a "gaming soundbar" but it would fit nicely on a desk and is in the same price range as the Katana and this Razer thing.
I was actually choosing between Razer and Creative for my soundbar! I chose to go with Creative as it looks like Razer cut a lot of features in there new one (front 3.5MM). Also I have generally found Razer products to be of below average build quality.
@@71x2 I'm strongly considering it, as I moved from having a few monitors to using a 55" 4k TV at my desk, and I think a soundbar would compliment it well. Not sure if I would get a lot of value from moving away from my current PC speakers or not though.
@@captain_zed Depends on what speaker you have. I mostly made the change as I was using some older Logitech speakers and the extra cables were annoying me a little too much hahaha.
@@71x2 I'm in the same boat. Using some old Logitech speakers (the Z623 2.1 set), which sound pretty nice, but the cables... I hate the cables.
I would not mind a Creative katana v2 review or comparison to this as well 👍
Maybe try the G560 (Logitech RGB speakers) if you haven't already. Pricepoint is not too different so definitely a competitor for those who are looking for RGB speakers
Seconded this. I had the v1 Razer soundbar. It was mediocre and died after 1.5 years of light use. Have the G560 now. It's not the best set of speakers in the world, but far far better than the sound bar and the lighting can be fun.
They also sound fantastic now that you can turn the sub down. I feel they are really under rated, especially for their price
@@SorasioM More like overrated. The get crushed by a pair of 2.0 speakers in the 100-150 bucks range.
dan's audio reviews are awesome. Good out of good!
Dan got me to subscribe to this channel. I've watched and enjoyed quite a few Short Circuits. Alex is great to watch too! But Dan got me to actually remember to push the button.
These videos about sound stuff are very nice to watch, I jus love the mood.
I had the V1 and the proprietary sub connection ended up failing. Wanted to just upgrade to the V2 till I watched this. Why did they remove so much of the connectivity? I would think you'd want more options not less. Ended up going with the SteelSeries Arena 7's. Can have multiple inputs simultaneously. Razer really dropped the ball cause I really loved the V1 and was totally going to buy this one. Oh well...
I have the v1 and have never had a problem with it. After seeing this I wondered if I just had tin ears and v1 has been bad the whole time. I looked at reviews from people who "upgraded" from v1 to v2 and the consensus is it's actually a downgrade. I've successfully avoided feeling ~9 years delayed buyers remorse. Especially since I got a free Ferox (mini bluetooth speakers) when I bought it and those are still doing fine as well.
yeah same here, the sub still works and connects with the connector but it'll fall out every now and then. I don't think that he knew you could adjust the bass from the sound bar. But I agree, I think I'll stick to my V1 until it goes out lol
Nah, get JBL Quantum headphones instead. Full surround sound, wireless, RGB. What more do u need? And you can get those below 200 bucks.
@@PunakiviAddikti I go full open back headphones when I want to wear them. Don’t think I could go back to closed backs unless I really need the sound isolation. The sound accuracy is too good.
@@PunakiviAddikti thats a fair point lol, i got the speaker for free so I wasnt complaining
Dan really loves to drive my cats crazy with the frequency testing
dan is my spirit animal... i need more dan videos.. right now plz.
I had the v1. It was meh. It died after about 1.5 years. The power input on it used a flimsy, janky, proprietary plug... which I think shorted and killed the soundbar. I doubt this one has improved it much. Don't buy Razer anything... except maybe their laptops and even then, that's a huge maybe.
Edit: See below. Wasn't the power connector, was the connection to the left of it.
If we know anything from Razer headsets, it's that razer and audio equipment are not something you want together.
the originals used a standard barrel plug lol. there have been numerous reports of the v1 dying though, not quite sure what that's all about.
@@goblinslayer5404 Just looked at some pics of it and you're absolutely right, the connector I'm thinking of was just to the left of the barrel connector. In mine it was wobbly and janky from day one and would regularly just fall out with both ends of the connector still attached and leaving the bare pins showing in the back of the sound bar. The connector was 2 or 3 pins surrounded by square plastic connectors.
@@FandangoJon ah u mean the connection to the subwoofer, having 2 pins/wires is standard, but the square plastic part probably isnt standard. mine is wobbly as well, but ive never had it fall out or anything, its always connected in place. perhaps u pulled on the cable? its not normal for it to just fall out unless its broken. its possible that the 2 pins shorting might've killed it. a temporary fix wouldve been hot glue or tape or something so that the wires dont short out. but yeh that's razer quality control for u, the buttons on mine are acting weird af, and it sometimes defaults to Bluetooth when i turn it on and id have to press THE POWER BUTTON to switch the input to aux, rather than pressing the button that switches the inputs (it doesnt work sometimes), buggy piece of sh*t. it was still my best option at the time though, so i cant really regret my purchase.
razer mices are actually really good, only mices, other products are really terrible
For pc speakers I chose Logitech z533. Refurbished I got them for 70 dollars lol so nice
good job. hey did you try setting the equalizer by hand/mouse might have helped
I didn’t know LMG actually used the bananas as a unit of measurement until this video. Now I want one
