5.1 effect is mild at best
Audio quality not as good as stereo headphones at this price.
The headphones dont sound as good with movies and music as they do with games. You must buy Razers sound card to truly optimize audio.
Sound quality is great, LED illumination on headset and controller, Sound precision is great for gamers, Very comfortable
Inline controller is a bit big
Well I think Razer has done a good job of establishing themselves in the audio market. For a "first try" at headphones they have knocked it out of the park. The HP-1s cover the 2 most important things when it comes to headphones. They sound great and...

A bit Pricey
While we were not able to test both the Barracuda AC-1 Gaming Audio Card in conjunction with the Barracuda HP-1 Gaming Headphones, our experience was still excellent with our analog sound card. Razers digital solution promises even more sonic purity w...
I’ve got a few different thoughts about the Razer Barracuda. On one hand, it is very expensive set of headphones for the average user. On the other hand, in the days of thousand dollar video cards, processors and 30” monitors, it’s not o...
The Razer Barracuda HP-1 is an impressive set of headphones, with sound quality rivaling higher quality studio headphones. With the sound I got from my AC97 onboard, I can only imagine the sound quality when coupled with the Barracuda AC-1 sound card,...

There you have it, the HP-1 headset from Razer performed nicely when it came to game, music and movie audio and as impressed as I am with these headphones, they are not without complaints. The bass in these headphones was not what I was expecting. The...

Ear piece depth was a bit to shallow for me.
So how do I feel about the Razer Barracuda HP-1 Headphones? Let us start with my dislikes as it is a very short list. Personally I think they could have made the ear pieces a bit more oblong, and the ear pieces could be a little bit deeper, but this...

I usually don’t get too excited over a set of headphones, but once I put these on I was utterly impressed. In fact, I just might not use my speakers anymore. The headphones were very comfortable. Even after two hours of use, the soft ear cushions po...
Tinny high notes The Final Word The Razer Barracuda HP-1 gaming headphones are a solid surround sound option for PC gaming. The sound quality is fairly good and the overall experience of the eight drivers was, if nothing else, a lot of fun.

Packed full of speakers, Even includes a sub in each phone
Clumsy technology, not impressive at all
Theres no doubt about it, this is one of the most enormous sets of cans weve ever seen. Packing three speakers and a sub into each earphone it certainly has the oomph to deliver when needed.In fact, the bass when listening to MP3s was enough to wobbl...
As with all their products, Razer are aiming to market this headset to gamers and although it may not have the best sound quality or bass frequencies in the world, nor for that matter the best mic, what this headset does do is provide a fantastic all ...
