What are the differences between THX Spatial Audio on the Razer Nari and

the immersive 7.1 channel virtual surround sound paired with the Razer ManO’War and True 7.1 Surround Sound Gaming with Razer Tiamat 7.1 v2?

THX Spatial goes beyond traditional virtual sound. With integrated content, THX Spatial Audio breaks the boundaries of defined 5.1 and 7.1 channel surround to deliver seamless 360° positional audio for more natural and lifelike positioning. It also adds depth to the experience by simulating sound both above and beneath you.

The 7.1 channel Virtual Surround sound utilized on the Razer ManO’War uses a more traditional technology that Razer uses to simulate seven channels with only two physical speakers (one driver on each ear cup). Meanwhile, the Razer Tiamat 7.1 and Razer 7.1 V2 utilize True 7.1 Surround where there are 5 drivers on each ear cup, like a home theatre system with physical surround speakers.

The USB dongle for the Razer Nari can be found in its convenient storage location, in the headset.
