I have two sets of the BlackShark V2 (one special edition version) and have been very pleased. Love the detachable mic (wish it was retractable instead), mic monitoring, and how comfortable they are. I get headaches easily, and the BlackShark and Kraken are the only two wired headsets I've found to be comfortable.
Was really hoping to get one of these but the V2 X is more in my price range and it seems like the Cloud II would be better if I'm going to be using 3rd party software as an EQ anyways. Great content you're channel deserves way more subs!
Quick question, in your opinion which of the two headsets has the most comfortable earcup material?
That's how honest and detailed TH-cam reviewers should be. Thank you for this. Subscribed.
Hi, So im wanting some new headphones cause mine's mic is going crazy sometimes and its time to do a change, i own a cloud stinger,would you recommend me to get a v2x or a cloud stinger 2 for gaming only? and would v2x be better with apo equalizer, if yes what settings?
good stuff bro, thanks for the info before i make my purchase
Umm also does the v2x usb version mic sound better than the v2x splitter version mic?
i have a question can the blackshark v2 x work with a elitedesk
BlackShark V2:
Lo recomienda, solo si tienes el dinero y quieres hacer uso del DAC que trae para mejorar aún más la calidad del sonido, sino te importa, no lo compres.
BlackShark V2 X:
La calidad de audio será la de fabrica, lo cual el dice que ambos audifonos su calidad de audio son malas, pero la razon por la que gana el "V2" es porque trae el DAC, para mejorar la calidad del audio.
My V2 mic doesnt work and my ps4 cant detect the mic i have placed the mic correctly but it just doesnt want to work my mic only works if i connected the usb sound card
Your content is great stuff. Razer labeling can get really confusing. Remember me when u hit 100k!
Thanks for the support!
Detailed explanation. Thanks for helping me in my decision
Do you know if the EQ settings from Synapse also can be used on console? From my understanding it should because they are saved on the usb soundcard itself but I'm not sure.
Not saved to the card on these unfortunately. With some other headsets they are.
First of all, thanks for your great video!
At the time, I have to decide if my next headset would be the Blackshark V2 X or the Steelseries Arctis Nova 1. Whats your opinion, which one sounds better?
I would prefer the Mic of the Steelseries cause I could put that away, but if the sound of the Blackshark V2 X is better, that would be more important for me....
The Nova 1 has overall better sound quality, but almost no bass. So if you don't need that, it's a better pick.
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 or Razer BlackShark V2 X ?
What's the best headset for overall usage around 50 bucks as of now? (like for music, gaming and movies on both mobile and PC)
HyperX Cloud Core
Great info. ❤. Thank you very much 🎉
what is the best headset for 100 dollars in your opinion
Razer Blackshark v2 (with sound card) or another model that you have already tested in the channel? Surround sound for listening to footsteps is the most important thing for me but I also want to be able to enjoy music and movies. I am trying to find something between 60-90$. Thanks in advance
Cloud II. Of all the headsets I've listened to so far, it has the best detailed sound aside from the Cloud Alpha. But the sound signature is better than that for FPS games. It works okay for movies, but it will sound way better with 3rd party EQ software like Equalizer APO to boost the bass, because it's not strong out the box.
As for surround sound, every single one of them has bad surround sound, and I keep it off on all of them. Stereo headsets can't actually do surround sound, these companies just add filters and effects on top of stereo audio. Hearing footsets is really going to be about which has the most clear detail and a frequency response curve that makes them stand out. And for that I say the Cloud II is the best.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Wow, thank you very much for your detailed reply. I will keep this in mind for my future Black Friday purchase. It's time to retire my Logitech G430 lol
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews which has the better muc cloud 2 or blackshark v2?
you're WAY too underrated, follow plus like
Love this video bro
Between blackshark v2x, hyperx cloud core and hyperx cloud 2 which one of these 3 would u say has the better mic?
V2 X but they're all pretty bad mics imo.
You just need to calibrate and setup audio in razer synapse 3 to make it sound good
Quick question: can either of these be connected to a PC directly using the 3.5 mm jack or are the accessories included (split cable/usb dongle) needed?
Both can go directly into a PC with just the 3.5, but only the headphones work (not the mic).
It could be different depending on your port, but for me using the splitter on a PC with both a mic and headphone port or using USB were the only ways to get both the headphones and mic to work.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviewsquick question bro. Can I plug in the USB sound card through my PS5 directly? I personally don’t like plugging my headsets directly to the controller via 3.5MM Jack.
can u recommend me a 70$ headset ?
Many TH-camrs reviewed V2x is an amazing headset, but I knew that it was lacking something. Thanks for the review I'll buy Hyperx cloud II or Blackshark v2.
why whats wrong with it? and which did you end up buying?
@@alalal123421 😅it's been 5months, went through many other reviews and finally gone with Beyerdynamic DT770s
@@scares3859 ik its been a year but was it worth it?
@@DanielSousa-wf8no if it's about 770S, then it's still working properly as it was doing on day 1
I am tight budget was going to go with v2x but it's non detachable mic is going to suck a lot any option for it like in my country I only has 1option for it hyperx cloud stinger core 2
Would the sound card improve sound quality on consoles as well?
no PC only
I want to buy the V2X for PS5 to play Warzone, would it be good?
Damn, what a TB when warzone was in its prime.
I Really don't understand when you said V2X "No Bass at All"?????
I have V2X and it'a really opposite from what you said, the V2X is too much bassy.
so what is the best headphone for playing FPS at PC?
imo Audeze Maxwell
hello brother , first of all your videos are the best not gonna lie .. so keep going
and i have a question about which is the best between (alpha s/cloud II/blackshark v2) to play cs go/valorant and thanks alot !!
Cloud II will be the best option for FPS games like those.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews thanks alot mate !
Could you recommend me the cheapest headsets with a good bass for movies/games/music?
Astro A40. Anything cheaper generally has pretty bad bass, but after that there's the Cloud Alpha or Cloud II. Both need to have their bass boosted by EQ though. And cheapest is probably Cloud Core which has the same drivers as Cloud II.
Hats off to those who play FPS games with blackshark v2 X, even if using with the third part soft. like Dolby Atmos it sucks.
can i use the v2 on PS4 putting them in the console?
Yes
Less than 1k views? Wtf YT????
will v2 carry over the settings to ps5 or ps4?
no
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews what about hyperx cloud core or logitech g pro x?? plz if u can answer. i want good headphones for ps5 with decent mic.
The fact that both headphones sucks without a sound card is obvious. But what about WITH a sound card? I have Dolby Atmos app, HyperX USB card from my old headphones, Creative Play 3 or whatever it called. What about those? Is it worth to buy V2, or I can save $50, plug V2X into HyperX usb card and use Dolby Atmos with the same result?
It's the drivers that aren't very good. A sound card isn't going to improve those, so yeah you might as well get the V2 X and EQ it with whatever else you want.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Interesting. I always thought that 32 ohm headphones should be better with USB or internal amps rather than plugged in to a weak motherboards or controller sound chips (those are horrible). I had my HyperX usb amp from my old Cloud Stinger Core 1, they're pretty basic, $20 cheap dirt and only 16 ohms, so they didn't really needed amp, but was decent. Shouldn't those newer Clouds and Blacksharks be better? (I'm not expecting them to be high-end or something 😁)
Can i use v2 sound card on v2x?
yeah
I buy the v2 X for 40 euros for warzone in ps5.
R they featherweight r they sounding crystal clear the lack of bass is amazing because you hear footsteps from far away and my teammates they hear me like i m sitting to the side of them.
I try them to a Xbox series X and they sounding better than ps5.
For 40 euros r they amazing!!!
Hello, do you think the Hyper X Cloud II with Equalizer APO can match or even be stronger than the Blackshark V2 with synapse?
I am looking to replace my ageing Siberia v2+usb headset with something that is at least able to match the bass level the Siberia had.
I see you talking about hip hop music in these reviews, so you must have the feel for it with the bass, what would be the ideal headset in this range in your opinion?
Thank you in advance!
I can't say about the Siberia, but of the headsets I tested the Cloud II has the second most bass. Cloud Alpha has slightly more. This is with Equalizer APO - out the box they're both kinda tinny. Also neither can match more expensive headphones, but for the price I think the Cloud II or Alpha are probably the way to go.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Thank you again for the info!
@@MadWatcher I did.
i dont understand why everyone is so hyped about the hyperx cloud 2 t. i returned mine. the bass was meh, the 7.1 was pretty low but they where comfortable. overall good on the head but not good on the tech inside
It's because it's good for the price if you EQ it. I've tried dozens of gaming headsets and nothing in that price range out right now can really touch the Cloud II or Alpha when they're EQ'd. Surround sound on all headsets sucks though ,and the bass is definitely weak. For something better, you have to usually spend like 1.5x or more the price and get the Astro A40.
