Product Information

Gaming performance should be the real strength of the Kraken Pro, and they certainly deliver. Battlefield 1 sounded excellent through the Kraken, with an authentic thud to explosions that accurately convey the panic of firefights. Heighten your game awareness and let nothing escape your Kitty ears with accurate positional audio that lets you pinpoint where every sound is comingfrom.

The Kraken Pro V2 feels great in the hand, and has been built with perhaps the perfect blend of materials at this price point. The headband was designed for balanced weight distribution and reduced clamping force to maximise comfort during lengthy gaming sessions. The Kitty part of the Kraken Kitty V2 Pro comes from the two connectors on the headband's top. This is where the headset’s ears plug in, and they represent one of the biggest upgrades to the V2. Instead of just triangular cat ears, each headset also has a set of long, oval bunny ears and a set of small, circular bear ears. The Kraken Kitty has a cosplay mode that lets you use lighting effects of your choice on the go with a power bank. You can set the default lighting effect of the product in Synapse 3. It will then be saved foruse.The Razer Kraken 7.1 V2 is outfitted with larger drivers than its predecessor to offer a louder and richer soundstage than ever before. You’ll feel like you’re right at the center of all the gaming action, while ensuring your team’s shotcalls are heard with absolute clarity. HyperX Cloud II Matt ElliottLike all of Razer's products, the Kraken Pro V2 uses its suite of Synapse software to let you make adjustments to the soundscape. The Kraken Pro V2 doesn't offer surround-sound per se, but you can install an add-on named Razer Surround Pro and calibrate it for a virtual 7.1-surround experience. It includes presets for a ton of Razer's headsets, but at the time of this writing, only the Kraken Pro, and not the Kraken Pro V2, was available from the pull-down menu in the software. The software also offers a graphic equalizer, and optional enhancements like bass boost, sound normalization, and one called "voice clarity." It's well done and gives more flexibility to the set, at least when using it on PC.
