Audio forms a crucial part of any gaming experience and luckily these days you don’t need to steal an armoured car to get pretty decent sound pumped into your ears.

The Razer Kraken Stereo headset for Xbox (also works on PC and PS4) comes with a standard audio connector (3.5mm) and a Xbox One Stereo headset adaptor if you have a launch era controller. The set simply plugs into your controller and you are set!

- Fit and comfort: Good sized ear cups lined with faux leather gives the headset a very good fit on most heads. I found the cups to be a tad small for my ears, but that might just be my age showing. The set is nice and light which will serve you well for many hours of non-stop gaming.

- Sound: Great bass levels and nice clear sound across the range. Some finer acoustic sounds might get a bit muddled when you really pump it, but if you like LOUD explosions and sounds these will do nicely! The microphone can fold away (which mutes it) and the sound is very nice and clear. Netflix and other streaming media sounds fantastic.

- Build quality and look: Very nicely and solidly built that feels premium for the price. Classic black and green Razor colour scheme.

- Price: I got mine for R1100 via Amazon UK (shipping and taxes included)

Are these the best headset money can buy? Nope, but you will have to add a few thousand extra Rands to get to those… If you spot one of these in a store, give them a go, they are great.

When I asked my mom where I was from she said they caught a wild ape and shaved it… she weren’t joking.

This primate has an unhealthy obsession with all things tech and pc gaming and when not in front of his Battlestation he can be found roaming the Cape wildlands with his motorcycle.
