Will this work?

Supahh

I'm negotiating on which one of the two gaming headsets I should purchase, but first I'd like to cover some things.

 

Razer Kraken Pro V2 (No Surround Sound 7.1) $150 - https://www2.razer.com/au-en/store/razer-kraken-pro-v2

Razer Kraken Surround Sound 7.1 $170 - https://www2.razer.com/au-en/store/razer-kraken-71-v2 

 

#1: 7.1 Surround Sound Headsets use a USB Port so I'd have to have to connect it via. usb ports on my pc. 

Is it also possible to connect the usb port on the headphones straight to my monitor? Just out of curiosity.

 

#2: If I decide to purchase the 7.1 Razer Kraken, will the headphones work on my iPad or Phone by getting this:

If so, will there be a significant loss in audio quality

 

#3: My monitor comes with an audio in and out 3.5mm jack and I feel if I'm not using the jacks, it's pretty much wasted. But if I don't get the 7.1 headphones, which hole should I plug the headphone wire into? Since the headphones come with a microphone..

 

#4: I've already used all the usb ports on my monitor and I'd like to preferably put the cable in my monitor, so instead of buying a usb gen, can I just do this? And put the usb into this: https://www.gearbest.com/chargers-cables/pp_656846.html?wid=1433363&currency=AUD&vip=15181142&gclid=Cj0KCQjwlK7cBRCnARIsAJiE3Mh_bMP1JlQKnXjbARvaKvR0nA1dN8Rhw1On4uJfdoBZv39oEX7m5fcaAkJMEALw_wcB

 

Regards,

Supahh.

i use the 2nd one (razer kraken v2 surround sound) And it works great! #1 do you have an all in one or a desktop pc? #2 I'm not one hundred percent sure #3 The mic works with just the usb #4 not one hundred percent sure on that one neither

I have a separate monitor since I built my computer, it's separate.

 

Kudos to you too!

So #1 You wont be able to plug it into your monitor no... while the headset works perfectly fine without Razer Synapses Running You will need to use it at some point if you want to use lets say lighting features calibrate surround sound and other small stuff   #2 Not sure #3 Like i said it works with just the usb #4 You will mostly need a usb hub for this... take quote me on that though since I've never tried my advice is just get a usb hub

In #3 I meant if I got the normal Kraken with a 3.5mm jack.

Why wouldn't it work on the monitor? It has usb ports and there's a usb upstream cable connected from my monitor to my pc.

i've never used the normal... so im not sure on that i really like surround sound but that's my opinion im guessing if its a 3.5 mm jack and has a usb you can plug it into your monitor
