Comfort is important when considering what headset will best fit on your bespectacled visage, but headphone isolation typically takes a hit when wearing glasses. However, the headphones’ attempt to accommodate people with glasses poses an issue. It can’t hold up to the the low hums of walking around a city, but you can’t really do that with these headphones-so it doesn’t need to. It has little trouble isolating you from the kinds of sounds you’d hear in the home, from noisy roommates or family watching TV to the sound of traffic out a window. The Thresher Ultimate offers isolation more or less in line with comparable gaming headsets. Sounds above 1000Hz are fairly well attenuated with the Razer Thresher Ultimate.
Games have gotten really good at outputting simulated surround sound even to stereo headsets, and the difference just isn’t that big. However, as I’ve said before, this feature probably won’t make a big difference in your in-game performance. The headset never struggled to offer positional audio in games like Realm Royale, Fortnite, or Overwatch, where that kind of information can be really important. The Thresher comes with Dolby 7.1 digital surround sound support, a relatively common feature among gaming headsets.
#RAZER HOW TO CHANGE COLOR SOFTWARE#
Razer’s gaming software has come a long way in the last few years, as have other gaming headset companion apps, but they’re still kind of a pain to use.
I consider that a positive, but if your gaming setup is riddled with many differently colored LEDs, there’s no way to change the Thresher to match, or even turn the LEDs off-you’re stuck with green. The headset doesn’t support Razer’s Chroma LED features or the company’s Synapse software.
