    Bruh, how come the V2 X sounds better than the V2?
    The V2 sounds like someone's farting in the background.

      its because of the soundcard, somehow razer headsets mic sounds alot worst when you connect it through the souncard.

      tbh the Kraken X and Kraken 2019 were really similar that the only diff was like the 40 vs 50mm drivers, aluminium construction and the retractable mic (latter 2 ain't present in the former)
      and honestly coming from a Kraken TE the Kraken X are really good for me cuz they are not only light but they are also not clamping hard like the heavier ones do.
      even the cardiod mic is the SAME just that the budget one can't retract and u have to bend up. that's about it
      tho im amazed the V2 sounds more raspy than V2x. i thought it'd be like the same

    I'm probably gonna get the V2x, the only thing I'm worried about is in the leather rich ear and head pads, cuz I know those tend to degrade easily with time. But i think for where I live the price difference isn't worth it to go up to the V2 even more so with the V2x having way better mic quality

      @FreezeTemo It's a perfectly good headset! The microphone works great. The audio is pretty decent, and as headsets go, it's very comfortable for me. I even brought it on the plane, and it was surprisingly decent to use during a long flight.
      At home, I bought a beyerdynamic headset because of the audio quality for music. But as I'm traveling, I'm using this one, and it works for everything I need. Gaming, speaking to people, watching videos, etc.

The mic is extraordinary, and on top of all he's more durable than the Kraken, I always had a problem with the Kraken cushions, which were made of leather and always got ripped apart, this one is made of a different kind of matterial. Also the mic mutting button and the volume is on the left earcup, giving a more reliable and durable condition to the headset.

    Try using the splitter cable to split it into the two channels, and plug the output one into the sound card, and the input into the pc. See if that solves the mic audio compression problem. Now u can enjoy high quality audio with good mic quality.
