Razer, a company more well known for their range of gaming peripherals, has unveiled its Maelstrom Audio Engine for its Megalodon headphones this time round that has nothing to do with a pointing device. This 7.1 surround sound gaming headset uses military grade audio technology which is capable of processing audio algorithms up to 8 times faster compared to standard HRTF virtual surround sound technologies. I don't know about you, but do gamers need that level of detail? After all, you aren't watching a movie or listening to a world-class orchestra playing in the first place. I suppose most people won't be able to tell the difference in quality during a frantic gaming session, where you are more concerned with taking your opponent out or running for cover at that point in time. The Razer Megalodon will retail for 139.99 Euros and can switch between stereo and 7.1 surround sound on-the-fly thanks to its control pod.
