I if plug trust mic in my sound card, everything is ok, If I plug tiamats mic in soundcard, I can hear vague muffled sounds from headset
Looks nice! But I won't have a conclusion until I tested myself.

Old headphone remade? I'm for it!

I owned one. But there is a problem. Entry level laptops such as Lenovo Y520 can't support Razer Tiamat 7.1 V2. So in order to use it I bought an external sound card. But it became bulky and not mobile. I hope Razer optimize Razer Synapse to support entry level laptop sound card if possible or give more details on the support of their peripherals on the box and on the websites they sell their peripherals.

It's impossible to drive an analog 7.1 headset with a sound card if it doesn't have the necessary outputs.

Thanks for replying sir. Oh i see, sorry I have not enough knowledge on that my bad, will learn more over time. Sir, do you know is Razer Tiamat 7.1 V2 is geared towards desktop and what motherboard supports it (how to know if the motherboard supports it?)

anyone here owned both the tiamat 7.1 older version, and this current version?

my question .... has the sound improved at all, on the latest version of the tiamat 7.1 v2?

my experience with the older gen, it did not sound any better than my kraken v2's

I am not sure about the old one as I used the new one directly. Personally I think it is good with external sound card and Razer synapse but without them, it is just sound like another headphone with plenty of buzzing problems for entry level laptops. Piece of advice from me, buy this headphone only if your laptop support analog 7.1 surround sound or only if you use it on a desktop. However, I like this headphone's design and size, It is super comfortable when you wear it, by far the best comfortable headphone after Hyper X.

I doubt it. Even if they used larger speakers, the sound would be marginally better at best. They aren't gonna use any kind of special headphone technology in a $200 pair of headphone
So with this headset, if my laptop doesn't have the necessary inputs, can I use an external usb sound card like the Creative Sound Blasterx G5 to get the full 7.1 surround sound effect?

I think yes. I am currently using my Razer Tiamat 7.1V2 with my Lenovo Legion Y520 with a soundcard 5.1 (claimed to support 7.1 by seller) I bought from Shopee because I couldn't find any 7.1 ones. From my callibration using the Synapse 2.0 software, I indeed experience surround sound.

Finally a revamped / return of the Tiamat! Tried them before, And I loved them, just never had the budget to buy them at the time, Might have to pick myself up a pair soon ;)

they are very good like every razer product
Hey, March 2019 and STILL no support for the Tiamat V2 in Synapse 3... What the hell?
