Razer BlackShark V2 X headset

Razer BlackShark V2 X is a wired gaming headset designed for competitive console and PC play. Compatible with PlayStation and Xbox, it features 50 mm Razer TriForce drivers for separated highs, mids and lows, a HyperClear cardioid microphone for focused voice capture, memory foam ear cushions and a lightweight headband for extended comfort, plus passive noise isolation and a convenient on-headset volume wheel. The headset connects via a 3.5 mm jack and supports spatial audio with Windows Sonic on compatible Xbox and Windows systems.

Advantages

The headset delivers clearer midrange, richer trebles and deeper bass thanks to the TriForce 50 mm drivers. The HyperClear cardioid mic reduces background noise and positions its pickup toward the mouth for improved voice clarity. Closed, cushioned earcups and memory foam provide passive noise cancellation and long-term comfort, while the on-headset volume wheel allows quick audio adjustments. Cross-platform 3.5 mm connectivity ensures use with PC, consoles and other devices.

How to use

Connect the headset to your controller, console or device using the 3.5 mm jack. Adjust the headband and position the earcups for a snug seal to improve passive noise isolation. Bend and position the cardioid microphone so the pickup is directed toward your mouth but not obstructing breathing. Use the on-headset volume wheel to set the desired audio level; configure spatial audio settings on Xbox or Windows if you want Windows Sonic processing enabled.

Recommendations

For best voice clarity, position the HyperClear cardioid mic close to your mouth and reduce background noise where possible. Ensure earcups form a good seal for optimal sound isolation and bass response. Use Windows Sonic on supported systems to enable spatial audio for improved positional awareness in compatible games.
