At least, I think that's what do-maybe was the other way around. The one on the left controls your master volume, and the right one controls the sensitivity of your microphone. There are two identically sized scroll wheels (you can press each of them in like a button, too). Compared to some headsets, the controls took some time to learn. Using the Thresher wasn't the ideal headset experience all the time. It’s a testament to the microphone that none of my friends have complained about my constant popcorn munching yet. You can keep it exactly where you like it or move it further from your face if you’re like me and like to snack between matches from time to time. Most of the time they still snuck up and took me out, but hey, good audio can only do so much in a crazy 100-person deathmatch.Ī retractable, adjustable unidirectional microphone pulls out of the left earcup, which is nice. In shooting games like Fortnite, I often felt like I could reliably sense where enemies were coming from. I should note that the standard Xbox Thresher does connect via Bluetooth (unlike the others), though I never had any trouble with lag on it, either. Aegis as easy as it could be, and I never noticed a second of lag with the 2.4 GHz RF connection. The 50mm drivers and 7.1 Dolby Surround Sound was so clear, it made my job as Chief Engineer of the U.S.S. I can’t imagine trying to pass the Kobayashi Maru with a lesser headset. I was happy to have a capable headset during some tense moments in Star Trek: Bridge Crew, which is full of immersive audio and intense cooperative play-the game is basically people screaming commands at each other. The sound is also crystal clear, and surround options are available on both Xbox and PS4 (Windows Sonic on the former, Dolby 7.1 on the latter). The earcups have a plasticky feel to them but feature a flexible 90 degree horizontal pivot to them (and a little vertical rotation). You can adjust and tweak them on your ears until they feel just right-and they’re glasses-friendly. It stays firmly in place thanks to the springy microfiber-like pads under the metal headband and the plush 'cups, which have an inch of soft memory foam covered by a soft leatherette material. Though the Thresher has bulky 4-inch circular earcups, it doesn’t feel overly heavy or tight, and it doesn’t overwhelm the sides of your face as much as headsets this size can. The Thresher is one of the nicest wireless headsets I’ve used on any console. Thankfully, Razer's given gamers a lot to like.
