Even though the Razer ManO’War only produces virtual surround sound, it's actually just as good as the Razer Tiamat 7.1– which actually has multiple drivers – we’ve owned this headset for the last few years. While running around the ruined streets of New York in the Division, we could hear a car alarm go off in the far north west and gun fire from the south. However, the ear cups feature RGB lighting – so you can make that Razer logo light up in whatever color you want through the Synapse application.

Setup is much easier and simpler than plugging in multiple audio cables or a big mix amp. And, just like every other feature on this headset, the dongle stows away neatly inside the its frame – there's even a magnet to help pull it inside.

Although it's not the world's most comfortable gaming headset, there's a lot to like about the Razer ManO'War. Its simplistic setup and bumping audio quality easily makes up for its flaws. Unfortunately, the ManO'War only work well so long as you're wearing them exactly as Razer intended. Pull one ear cup to the side, and you'll feel it pressing into the side of your head.In the world of surround sound headsets, you either get a set of cans with multiple drivers built into them or audio devices that simulate the effect virtually. The ManO’War falls into the latter camp, using an extra-large 50mm driver to basically cover your ear and project directional soundwaves.
