I know a few friends who have gotten the Kraken, and just like the Blackshark, the audio adapter that splits the mic/audio into two separate cables is extremely flimsy, and prone to wear out. I can't really speak for the quality of the headset itself, but expect to replace that part ($15 a pop usually) within a few months.

when compared to headphones + mic in the same price bracket, no, its not, but if we all say no, wouldnt that lead to suggestion of alternatives?

Alright you can come with suggestions but i would mostly like Razer or logitech!

But the kraken 7.1 is USB so it should have 1 cable not 2.

Ah, thats my bad. I just looked up Razer Kraken, not realizing there were several versions. Personally, I wouldn't touch any Razer product with a 15ft pole... But I really don't have enough experience to recommend anything else in that price bracket. Logitech has always treated me well, though. I'm not sure if there's a Sennheiser in that bracket with a mic.

Razer makes fine products, but do not touch their headsets. I've had 4 different ones over the last year and eventually just traded them in for store credit. Never had a problem with my Naga, Deathadder or Blackwidow, but constant problems with all headsets.

I've never been dissapointed by a Razer headset (the Onza did that)and so far I'm enjoying them. If anyone wants to check out a nice unboxing for the Kraken 7.1 here ti is
