The Razer Piranha strikes me as being a better than average budget headset, and I have tried a lot over the past year. The sound quality is a bit better than most, but the design is fundamentally flawed. The closed cup design with no vents whatsoever coupled with a headband pressing them hard against your ears makes them far from comfortable to use over an extended period of time. The design is probably up for debate, personally I would rather see one better built than one with LEDs on, but that is just my opinion I am sure that a lot of modders out there will like the fact that Razer has put blue LEDs in this headset.
The volume / microphone control is a good detail because it enables you to quickly adjust the volume and turn off the microphone. This headset fully lived up to my expectations for the price. The Razer Piranha provides good value for the money, but lacks that essential finesse that makes it a really good one. The only real problem I had with this headset is the size and adjustments of that. It simply is not as comfortable as other headsets.
