Razer Kraken Tournament Edition | Compete with Control

Will be gunmetal gray color available ?:P

is this on synapse 2 or 3?

if 2, why they promoting this 'new headset' on a old software?

How does the surround compare to the Kraken v2 ?

I so want this

Nice headset

Ordered mine this morning and went for the black over the green. Wish there was a gunmetal for the TE--but no biggie. I'm still super excited to experience the spatial audio and the integrated cooling gel ear cups. This will be my first headset from Razer and it seems like the "best" for me in terms of feature set, build quality, etc. Was about to pull the trigger on the Kraken 7.1 V2s but choose these instead.

I'm a bit short on USB ports so I might have to swap my Ornata for the new Blackwidow Elite with USB pass through--but think my desk will starting to look silly with audio controls on the headset, keyboard, and the dial from the Nommo Pros. Look at all these ways I can change to the next track! :cool_:

Hoping the that free headphone stand promo code works too. Freebies with every order is such a nice touch.

I just like the kraken because of the cute ears that go on it

I love the multiple control options on the hardware and via synapse for this Kraken TE, thank God its there in Black. I bought the black stealth. :smile_:

The only thing i feel missing is the RGB razer logo like in the Kraken V2 :frown_:

Wonder how long it will take to be supported by synapse 3

It seems to be supported on Synapse 3 just fine. Was there a feature you were looking for? I plugged mine in yesterday running through the USB pass through on my keyboard and after downloading everything, like Synapse normally does when you plug in a new device the first time, I was off to the races.

Inside Synapse 3 it only provides a picture of the headset and the USB controller with instructions on what the buttons do--that's it for the audio tab. So any sound characteristics (THX Spatial Audio, for example) you have to change from the USB controller itself--you can't do it from the audio tab in Synapse 3 like on my Nommo Pros.

how long is the cord for the amp soundcard it would have to be pretty long for it to work with me

You can find that here on the comparison page. But that combined with the 1.3m on the headset themselves gives you a total of 3.3m of cord. On my desk, it's a little too much.

USB DONGLE

• Controls: Vol up/down, Bass up/down, THX Spatial On/Off*, Mic mute, Game/Chat balance*

• Cable length: 2.0m

This looks like a great headset! Looking to get one.

Mine says Razer USB Audio Controller as well.
Just like you said, maybe it is to do with the update, or the way how Razer wants to display the product. I would also like a display name "Razer Kraken TE"

On the synapse 3, it detects the rectangle usb audio controller. So technically synapse 3 is not detecting the headset. Try plugging the headset audio jack to the pc audio output.

I'm not sure whether you have the usb audio controller, if you do, there is a throttle switch which allows Bass adjustment. On the Synapse 3 go to Audio - Equalizer and adjust the bass settings. Otherwise it might require some technical support.

Please try to "fuse" your answers in one post.

I won a pair of these from the November #Razerquest and couldn't wait to get them, so being the holiday season I went out and bought a pair as they where on sale! I LOVE THEM, i've been using my Astro A40's for years and wanted something new I thought I wanted wireless but I didn't like any of the wireless setups other than the Steel Series ones that come with 2 batteries that you can swap out as the headset dies (reminds me of the old Triton Warheads for the 360 my favorite i ever used on the 360).

Setting them up was a breeze, audio is way louder than on the A40's with the old mix amp, and they cancel way more outside noise (I have a 3 year old that plays/watches TV in the room with me while i game who usually is loud enough to make me miss footsteps....then die)

SO now that I have a pair already and I just received my notification they have been shipped I think I'm going to give them away during one of my streams. Its gonna make someone else super excited and happy to have such an amazing headset, especially if they don't already have one!
