No the Kraken's first off are a new gimmick that Razer is trying to market trough out people by using celebrities, second the headset isn't worth any money because the sound stage and base is just utterly terrible. Assuming you are willing to spend 80 dollars on a pair of headphones I would recommend the Sony MDR-v6, or a pair of Superlux HD-688B with a desktop amplifier, I would recommend any of the FiiO's that fit your budget.
