Model overview based on user reviews  
The Razer Kraken Tournament Edition headphones are a popular choice for gamers, offering high-quality sound with a focus on bass, thanks to their 50mm drivers and THX Spatial Audio technology, which provides a 360-degree virtual 7.1 sound experience. Users appreciate the convenience of the external sound card for easy sound adjustments and the comfortable fit due to the aluminum frame and padded ear cushions. However, some users have noted issues with the microphone quality and the durability of the ear cushions and headband over time. The volume control on the wire can be problematic, as it sometimes causes the sound to become quieter unintentionally. Despite these drawbacks, the headphones are generally considered a good value for their price, especially when purchased at a discount. The design is also praised for its aesthetic appeal, particularly the green color option. Overall, the Razer Kraken Tournament Edition is recommended for its sound quality and comfort, although potential buyers should be aware of the minor issues reported by some users.

first used razer multiplatforms and then bought the Tournament Edition, there is no difference, current + the fact that in games you can reduce the bass, and increase in music, the micro is clear
convenience, sound quality, noise, external + -
the fabric on the headphones quickly corrodes, and the wheel that you often jam and the sound becomes quieter

A good headset for its price with a good imitation of 7.1 sound.
14 February 2022 
I bought it at the beginning of February 2021, before that there were razer karaken v2, the new headphones are much more comfortable, and after the new headset it’s impossible to sit in the old one, I bought it at a discount in the outlet for 2000 UAH. I was also pleased with the audio card through which it is convenient to turn off the microphone and adjust the sound.
Sound card with convenient on/off sound, as well as many functions on it. Cool sound.
Adjusting the sound on the wire itself on the headphones, it constantly touches and the sound becomes quieter. After half a year of use, approximately every half a month, sometimes the right speaker becomes louder than the left one, it is decided by the fact that you need to bring the sound control on the wire to the end with effort.

A gaming headset for ours and yours

It seems to us that a good gaming headset doesn't have to look like a tuned sports car and shine like a Christmas tree. First of all, it should sound good and not put pressure on your head while playing, and design is already a matter of taste. From this belfry, the Razer Kraken TE makes the most of it, with a great built-in microphone, powerful bass sound with an eye for gaming, and a solid yet lightweight design with an aluminium frame and padded shell. Well, the design here is such that it suits both ours and yours. The acid green coloring is sure to appeal to fans of colorful gaming gadgets, while the black coloring of the headset is easy to confuse with professional headphones. Given that the microphone is almost completely hidden in one of the cups, Kraken TE can be used outdoors with a player or smartphone.

Powerful bass-focused sound

As for $110 headphones, the Razer Kraken TE delivers high-quality sound. The 50mm drivers, which reproduce frequencies from 12 to 28,000 Hz, sound surprisingly clear, crisp and powerful. To a large extent, the advanced DAC built into the headphone controller is responsible for this. If you listen to music, they play brightly and powerfully, but not too versatile. There is a clear emphasis on low frequencies, while the middle ones, on the contrary, lack brightness and detail. In bass genres like techno and hip-hop, this is more of an advantage. But with more subtle and complex compositions like jazz music Kraken TE handles not in the best way. Although, if necessary, you can always resort to using the built-in equalizer.

Quality DAC with 3D THX Spatial Audio

But in games, everything changes dramatically. The fact is that instead of the usual virtualization, the DAC supports THX Spatial Audio technology, which creates a full 360-degree sound, comparable only to what is in models with Dolby Atmos. In shooters like COD and Battlefield, where the developers responsibly approached the implementation of multi-channel sound, you can even hear the noise of stones under the feet of opponents. And when a grenade or an enemy shell explodes behind your back, you bounce in your chair out of habit. You certainly need to feel it yourself, verbal epithets do not convey even half of the delight. I also liked that the sound card has a separate low-frequency control, which allows you to pile on the right amount of bass in games and movies without resorting to the software equalizer in the Razer Synapse utility.
